THE PILOT - Amaury Pierron

[@TeddyParker]

How did SleeperCo just take over downhill production overnight? This is the kinda coverage we all want for everything we care about. Props to those lads.

[@jedstanton3232]

my thoughts exactly

[@manubaiktaller]

This is how you should show Dh-MtB content. Good story telling. Great work. I could watch this at the cinema. Quality.

[@rodrigocasasempere6572]

One of the best documentary videos I´ve seen in the last couple years... A lot of emotion that can be felt as you are watching it. Animal!

[@Dydhy23]

You have seen the first movie ?

Insane work Sleeper Co!!!! Hands down one of the best sports docuseries out there and on pair with similar stories that Netflix have put out. So excited for 2023 DH Season.

[@kunkakunkic774]

i dont know nothing about downhill racing, but this documentary is awesome. top tier quality

[@stevet9938]

Re-watching this after Amaury layed down two of the greatest winning runs in history back to back in 2024.... The Pilot part 2 will be even more riveting.

[@vitalmtb]

🔥🔥🔥🔥 can't wait to see this season kick off! YEAH MOMO (finally finished the movie...SUCH AN AMAZING FILM! great work sleeper co, amaury and crew!)

[@nicholkid]

This came on autoplay and I ended up watching the whole thing instead of playing Zelda.That proves how good this was I think! Amaury has been my fave rider since I got into downhill. To see him go through all those injuries and come back even better is really inspiring.

[@rpiian]

One of my favorite riders to watch. Amaury is a freaking animal.

[@hobmarg]

18min in and have to comment already that this is now WCDH canon, mandatory watching... another 10/10 production by Sleeper, hats off guys, take a bow... Also another reminder of how much we will miss Rob Warner on commentary this season.

[@strictlybusiness5388]

That was just my thought when hearing Robs voice

[@Constantin1020]

Rob was a Legend 😢

[@jdubz22]

I was never a Amaury fan but after watching this you can't not love the guy. Such a funny vibe and aura around him. Top guy!

[@juanguillamondh]

If a banana stuck on a wall with american tape is art, this videos is on another level like this is the best documentary and also the best summary of a season i've ever seen in my life.

[@ianrendall201]

Absolutely captivating from the start. Nobody doing it like the Sleeper Collective. Max, Glen, Harry and Tamara totally smashing it. 👏🤟

[@Dydhy23]

Une tuerie comme d’hab… merci a commencal , a la team, aux riders, rideuses, aux monteurs, merci pour les frissons et les yeux brillant , LOVE .

[@Garrett-G]

Incredible story! Excited to see this season kick off!

[@reubenphoenix1]

Best bike documentary I've ever seen man do I love amuary, such good footage everything just perfect

[@BockaufBiken]

Amaury is the man! He is so valuable to the sport and has taken it to a new level with his engaging manner. Much love MOMO

[@brunotorresfernandes2514]

Maaaaaan, what work. Amazing film, images, music, text, everything. Riding a bike it’s a pleasure for everyone, of course, but when you put meaning in the act of down a mountain with your bike, when you depend to be fast, to be perfect, to not wrong, that’s the time when your life received meaning. So, in this film, we can feel that energy. 🇧🇷 🇧🇷 🇧🇷 🇧🇷 🇧🇷

[@johnmurphy3692]

you are a true sportsman. You are one in a few in the world who is as good and knows how to go there. A true downhill racer. Long live Amaury. A true example of real grit and all out commitment. He is and will be one of the sport's greatest racers and a true Frenchman. Mind over matter. It was so great watching you come into the ranks again. No. 1

[@ride-time]

This is the best MTB video I've seen in years. I'm so glad I sat down to watch the whole thing.

[@lucasdh13]

C'est pour ça qu'on aime ce sport ! Nous avons découvert tout le processus de création du V5 avec "This Is Us" (au passage incroyable). Maintenant un focus sur Amaury Pierron dans ce film / documentaire que dis-je chef-d'oeuvre ! On passe part tous les états de la joie, à la tristesse de voir que mentalement Pierron n'est pas au top et qu'il essaie de tout donner malgré tout. L'une des meilleurs partis selon moi c'est l'étape de World Cup à Gets ! Ayant été spectateur sur place, juste en revoyant les images toutes les émotions qui remonte c'est fou ! Un triplet français sur cette étape ce n'est dû jamais vu ! La folie, la fierté que d'être Français et de voir tous ces athlètes sur le podium. (Merci à David Douillet d'avoir essayé de décrédibiliser notre sport...) Une réalisation by Sleeper Collective des artistes dans le domaine ! Un montage d'une perfection folle. Bref tout est fou dans ce doc merci à tous de nous faire vivre ceci. Un grand bravo à toute l'équipe Commencal pour pousser encore plus loin chaque fois ce sport. ENG : That's why we love this sport! We discovered the whole V5 creation process with "This Is Us" (incredible, by the way). Now we focus on Amaury Pierron in this film/documentary, or rather masterpiece! We go through all the states of joy, to the sadness of seeing that mentally Pierron isn't at his best, and that he's trying to give it his all in spite of everything. One of the best parts for me was the World Cup stage in Gets! Having been a spectator there, just looking back at the images brings back all the emotions, it's crazy! A French triplet on this stage is unheard of! It's madness and pride to be French and to see all these athletes on the podium. (Thanks to David Douillet for trying to discredit our sport...) Produced by Sleeper Collective, artists in their field! Insanely perfect editing. In short, everything in this doc is crazy. Thank you all for bringing this to life. A big bravo to the Commencal team for pushing this sport even further every time.

[@24MPZ]

So stoked to see this on my KZbin feed today. Commencal makes the best MTB movies. Our Own Way still gives me chills, can't watch without riding right after.

[@TAZMON20]

It's never about how you fall but how you rise up, excellent work, see you in Fort William.

[@clem2nc642]

Merci de ce reportage sur Momo ! Incroyable travail de tout le monde !

[@661sendit]

I would absolutely pay to watch this top tier production quality again and again! Awesome work Sleeper Co and shoutout to the men and women riders for making this sport so entertaining!!

[@MikaMusquin8525]

Super documentaire! Vraiment une très belle génération de pilotes français!!

[@bradearl16]

Absolutely the best doco that's I've seen in quite a few years. SleeperCo! Have killed it with this one, amazing cinematography and they have really shown the emotion and dedication and hard work that riders put into a world cup season! Well done!❤🔥🙌

[@2foldmusicuk]

As a life-long friend of Glen Thomson, I can vouch for this man. The most hard-working, consistent and motivated person who loves what he does and it clearly shines through in his films. Very Proud pal here.

[@Dempsey222]

Great documentary. Amaury's never quit attitude is motivational.

[@CurtisCycles]

This is so good, Amaury one of the best in the WC circuit, such a gnarly agro style which is a joy to watch! Whenever I wanna get stoked to ride I always watch his 2019 win in Les Gets! Bring on the 2023 season!

[@xaverymulholland5279]

That was f**king sick. Love these racing documentaries

[@lynguist]

it's already been said often enough, but this film is truly sth special and i enjoyed every minute of it! amaury's achievements, the pictures, interviews, music, story AND rob warner's commentary. MAGIC!

[@calebmccalla4715]

Well done @sleeperCo. What a bad ass edit. Amaury is prolly the toughest rider out there and it comes from his drive to win. These dudes are mentally insane to go as fast as they do. Also, the Muc-Off boys always have the best kits

[@MATTYLAMBERT]

Incredible. Thoroughly enjoyed from start to finish. Great work everyone involved.

[@vitusa.7493]

This one is just a masterpiece, insane work Sleeper Co!!

[@chrish8871]

Watching this again. Epic story. Every story should be told. Tough boy. Tough riders. Tough athletes all. 🇬🇧

Thank you! This format is amazing. What a beast. I’d love to see something similar on Myriam.

[@Marcel-we5yx]

Just awesome. He is already a Legend, he is a real Animal

[@jamiemcilreavy4827]

I've seen alot of people come up through the ranks over the years but watching amaury to me was mental I seen the start of the lac blanc team and I said to some friends the dude gonna win a championship and they laughed and looked at me like I was nuts and boom look who's Mr 2x overall champ amazing to hear it in story

[@1brenmaster]

Brilliant work. Can't help but think it's just not going to be the same without Warner shouting his lungs out.

[@marcinsnopkowski]

I feel we definitely need more of this kind of movies! For me it is unbelievable what these guys and girls are capable of. I am a big fan of motorsport (rallying especially) but Downhill Riders are just on another level of insanity. Almost no protection going flat out over rocks, stumps and crazy jumps... I want more! :)

[@northboundcampervans3869]

Incredible work guys, I think a lot people must now consider you guys real innovators in how you are telling the story of modern downhill.. epic watch ❤

[@albandumontel39]

What a wonderful 1 hour and 20 minutes I spend ! Amaury is a beast ! Thank you Commencal for this, hope we are gonna have the sountrack of it, all musics are perfect. Fière d'être Auvergnat !!!

[@my2017raptorhardtail]

Love this dude and your bikes. Absolutely AMAZING vid and riding. Inspiring.

[@maxschramma1649]

incredible movie ,amazing work from everyone involved! Amaury is just a freak of nature such an inspiring rider and person !

[@yattaran1484]

Absolutely fantastic film !. Thank you for posting this!. So happy to know Amaury is just another ordinary man and not a Superman, although he rides like one !. Can't wait to watch his ride this season !.

[@derekbaker8791]

That was amazing! So well done. The '23 race season is going to be the best yet!!

[@bensun432]

thanks for sharing this side of the races!

[@ondrejjanoska660]

siiiiick! Good luck in new season! And see you in Lenzerheide!!!

[@bruce.KAY-bike-drifter]

The raw emotion was palpable. Not just fighting to win; fighting to be error-free; risking your long-term health; reaching higher and higher. I hope you stay healthy Amaury. Keep fit. Keep safe. Keep well.

Absolutely inspiring. You da man Amoury

[@Forestmtb]

Super good video!! I was in Les Gets 2022 I can even see myself at 1:03:52. I am so glad I went there it was one of the best things in my life I have seen, been and felt. I cant even describe how I felt it was insane!

[@hugoverlaine3626]

i absolutely love Amaurys' charisma 🥰

[@dougsmith4678]

That was amazing! Mad respect to Amaury! His determination is inspiring

[@alirothwell4950]

Quel film, de moments dur comme de moments fantastique. Ça faisait longtemps que je n'avais pas vu un film de ce genre, le dernier en date pour moi ( hors catégorie VTT ), "Few Words" Merci Commencal, merci aux riders français pour ces moments inoubliables ( Lourdes, Gets )

[@neilstevens9796]

This is a super film, love the production, cinematography, the type, graphics and sound. Well done all involved, this will inspire a hole generation of future downhillers.

Love the passion you have Amaury for always improving day by day and having the discipline to come back stronger than ever.

[@Nivrox]

Magique ! Merci pour ce beau projet la team
