VIDEO: Nate Spitz's Dreamland
Mountain Biking Through the Epic Trails of Squamish
Squamish, Canada, is a dreamland for mountain bikers, and no one knows it better than Nate Spitz. His first feature edit, aptly titled Dreamland, captures the essence of what makes Squamish a bucket-list destination for riders worldwide. But Nate’s ride is only part of the story—this video is a tribute to the entire team that made it happen.
Why Squamish?
Nate’s Dreamland was shot in the heart of one of the world’s premier mountain biking locations. Squamish is renowned for its technical trails and scenic backdrops, all carefully built and maintained by a passionate community of trail builders.
Nate takes in the vastness of Squamish from one of its highest peaks.
Behind the Scenes of Dreamland
From the sharp eyes of videographer Alastair Spriggs to the tireless efforts of the trail builders, Will, Ted, Dave, Alexis, Honza, Gabe, Enrique, Matt, & others, Dreamland is a collaborative masterpiece. Nate thanks everyone involved for making this dream come to life.
“Working alongside Nate makes filming a whole lot easier because every feature he hits tends to speak for itself. Multiple times we’d roll up to Pro Line features around town and deemed them too small to make the cut. We shot this video throughout the summer, but really only spent 5 to 6 days out on the trails, and the wildest part, he only fell once.
Going behind the scenes, what I appreciate the most about Nate is his patience. A lot of riders get so focused on a particular move or line, that they fully dial in, and ignore the environment around them. Nate is the opposite. During most sessions, riders would pass through, and each time they did, he’d offer them a friendly hey-how-are-ya, a full-on coaching session to get them down the feature, and a massive cheer at the end.” –Alastair Spriggs
