In the past few years, we’ve seen tremendous growth among women in Mountain Biking and the caliber is rapidly increasing. Born and raised in Vancouver, BC, Hailey Elise spent her formative years adventuring on Vancouver’s North Shore, the birthplace of freeride mountain biking. Now based in Whistler, she’s working towards pursuing a full-time professional career, but the journey hasn’t been easy. The pressure, the injuries, the mental blocks. After her second significant crash in a year, we find her healing, dreaming, and working with friends turned family to prepare for her next big move. This short docu-film is a meditation on transformative physical and mental pain and a crew of friends profoundly connected by bikes and wild ideas.
