Bearclaw Invitation 2014 - Raising the Bar 1

Following on from the incredible progression witnessed at last week's Red Bull Joyride, the infamous Bearclaw Invitational returned to Vancouver Island this weekend to set a new benchmark in what's possible on a mountain bike.

On a course designed and built by mountain bike legend Darren Berrecloth, this event was always going to provide the perfect platform on which to push the sport of slopestyle into a whole new realm. And that they did, with Brandon Semenuk and Brett Rheeder laying down runs that left many present speechless.

So sit back, grab a can and prepare to have your mind blown.
