Dirt Diary: The result of trails coming to life—literally—with a core female cast that puts having fun as high on the priority list as riding hard. – ANNE CLEARY About Dirt Diaries: Crankworx and Whistler Blackcomb celebrate the creative spirit, and storytelling culture of mountain biking in this video throw-down for a seventh year. Six filmmakers bring us the ride of our lives this summer, showcasing a slice of one athlete’s diary. These four to six-minute videos begin production June 1 and hit the big screen in Whistler Olympic Plaza Tuesday, August 14. Teams must include the Whistler Valley and Whistler Mountain Bike Park in a quarter of their film—from there it’s free creative licence. They choose the size and scope of their team, their supports, their geographical boundaries. This is the blank canvas of the Crankworx culture beat, shining the spotlight on shooters on the cutting edge of their game.
