The Art Of MTB: Utah
The Art Of MTB: Utah
In the third episode of The Art of MTB, we follow photographer JB Liautard and MTB-pro Thomas Genon as they load their red pickup truck with Canyon MTBs and head for Utah’s vast expanse of winding gorges and plateaus. Join the two friends on a classic road film adventure, chasing the American landscape for those once-in-a-lifetime camera shots that elevate sports into beauty.
“The purpose is to make something beautiful”
“I want to find a spot or jump where I can express myself”
“Light, landscape, and action”
“I’m hoping to produce a beautiful photo, a beautiful trick, a beautiful action”
“It’s not always easy, everything is beautiful”
