Darren Berrecloth
My name is Darren Berrecloth and i live in a small town called Qualicum Beach
I originally started riding bikes when i was a kid well what am I kidding everyone rode bikes when they were kids because we had no cars. The first real bike i had was a specialized rockhopper hard tail, and it didnt take me very long to destroy it, before i knew it the wheels
were bent the bars were bent and i did not have enough money to keep fixing it.
So my local bike shop convinced me to buy a bmx if I wanted to keep doing jumps So I did then I started racing and one thing led to another and here i am.
A professional freerider for specialized, travelling the planet searching for the sickest terrain and riding comps. I am currently tavelling a ton and am super excited to have the opportunities to explore the unkown and push my own limits everyday. I keep pinching myself to make sure its not a dream but yes it is reality and yes I do ride for the best bike company in the business.
hobbies; Snowboarding, snowmobiling, fishing, hunting, skiing, bmxing, motoxing, quading, wakeboarding, and building trails and stunts.
Back at home at last......
April 16, 2009Back at home at last, I just returned home from a 5 week film trip in southern Utah. The film I was filming for was new world disorder 10. Yes I said 10, I know what your thinking but yes time does fly by and this is my 7th appearance in the new world disorder films. The process is quite simple, I drive my truck south with all my bikes and my moto of course, Then we rented a house for 2 months which we found to be quite perfect since the house was very close to our filming zones. Once I arrived I use my moto to scour the desert to find unique features such as big boulders that can be used as wall rides or a takeoff. But mainly searching for things that just stand out. Once I decide the jumps and or features that I am going build we get to work with shovels and rakes buffing out my lines. Then when its done we wait until the light is good and there is no wind.
This trip I was very successful in finding what I wanted, which was rad features that stood out. It definitely took way longer than I expected to get all the shots I wanted due to weather conditions, which included lots of wind. There were times where I sat on top of a jump and waited for a break in the wind for 45 minutes. Now that is nerve racking. Some of the highlights are, Switch 360 off a drop followed by a regular 360 off a second drop right away. Big gap to rock manual, turndowns and lookbacks on the raddest quarter pipe i've ever built it was 14 feet tall and super scary. Those are just a few of the highlights from the trip so stay tuned for other epic tales from ME
