Chris Benchetler‘s Mountains of the Moon is set to come out this upcoming fall and it’s already looking to be quite an incredible project. Benchetler’s 32 episode series Ship of Fools takes us behind-the-scenes of the movie, focusing on each sport, the music, the filmmaking, and much more. So far we’ve seen skiing, climbing, free diving, surfing, and mountain biking.
The most recent episode returns to mountain biking, highlighting the four athletes hand-selected to make the project. Carson Storch, Ryan Howard, Hannah Bergemann, and Casey Brown all came together to get weird, go with the flow, and stay stoked into the early morning.
About the Mountains of the Moon Project:

Pushing boundaries of what can be done at night with cameras, lights, lasers, and animation, Mountains of the Moon transports viewers to a world of infinite beauty and possibility, ultimately celebrating our shared humanity and connectedness.“
