The Eighth Parallel – a documentary by Darcy Turenne

Posted by JacQ

I have been a sporty girl all my life. Being a tomboy who loves to play sports outdoors is not a supported form of activity in most Asian culture. Being naturally tan and physically fit makes me happy, but gets me negative remarks from my friends and family from Taiwan.

I am fortunate to meet my soulmate, Jeremy, who supports and encourages me to try new sports and be more active. He loves me for me and I am lucky to have someone to share my passion for outdoor activities.

Today, I came across a beautiful documentary, The Eighth Parallel by a pro mountain biker/film maker, Darcy Turenne. It is a 28 minute short film shot in Bali and Java, Indonesia. The cinematography is fantastic and I love the soundtrack. Take a short break from work and enjoy this~

We love mountain biking. But we also have great admiration for the skilled bikers who live and breathe with their bike. It is almost like the bike is just an extension of their body.

This video by Inspired Bicycles might be one of the best videos that shows the talent and skill that it takes to make some of the most unusual and technically challenging lines you can imagine…

Enjoy~
