TOUR DE GNAR 2023 - FULL FILM

Hello, everyone, and welcome to the 3rd edition of the Tour de Gnar!
Tour de Gnar is a groupment of riders from around the world, both women and men, taking on the gnarliest features of Sea to Sky, BC, Canada, all in a single day.
This 15-hour beast of a journey began at 6 a.m. in Squamish, with the plan to conquer 15 features all the way to Rutherford in Pemberton.
For this year's edition, we had 30 riders, compared to 10 last year and only 2 the year before. More riders means less time for each rider to analyze and safely navigate the features, as for most, it was their first time tackling them all.
Two days of rain leading up to the tour made the terrain extremely slippery, adding an extra element of gnarliness! As you can imagine, this year was a bit of a rodeo, so fasten your seat belts, everyone, and enjoy the show.
------------------
We would also like to take this opportunity to promote our friend Aven's fundraiser. Aven had a crash a few days after the tour and is now suffering from a spinal cord injury. After 10 weeks in the ICU in Vancouver, he needs all the support from our community. I invite you to make a donation; even the smallest amount can make a huge difference in his life.

We would like to thanks the search and rescue teams in the Sea to sky corridor for continuously saving the lives of all of us playing in the woods, and sometimes putting ourselves in very tricky situations. All these people are volunteers and also need our support.
A donation will go a long ways.

[@LewisBuchanan]

Yes!!! Awesome. Looking forward to next year and doing it all over again 🫶🏼

[@TheDingopaul]

Your the man Lewis

[@obsidian....]

You killed it!

[@TheLoamRanger]

Currently stopping everything to sit and watch what's sure to be a masterpiece. Lets goooooooo

[@TheLoamRanger]

Just finished it. Can confirm. 37:40 what a beautiful moment.

[@LagBomer]

Mr. Barelli, you've just dicovered an amazing personal format. It makes the features so more real. High level photography and editing. You must've draft your crew from The Canadian Film School. A very refreshing alternative. Pushing the level of freeride up even more.

[@Socratiszotos]

One the best days ive had on a bike! Cant wait for next year🤝🤞

[@TheR04Ch]

Mate! You've been everywhere lately. Nice riding. We were talking with you at the MEGA this year (Malaka Racing Team) and saw you in Ft. William. Keep on going, dude!

[@SilverbackOrangutan71]

Lewis Buchanan stole the show this year

[@TheDingopaul]

What a legend

[@lamefart]

Skipped some features though..

[@billdesportes13]

@@lamefart hater 🤡

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

An amazing day!! Thank you Yoann. And that was fun reliving my crash in slow motion 😂

[@babs8083]

The camaraderie among the riders is so cool to watch. And the riding… wow… definitely way, way way above my pay grade. And I appreciate the love and support you’re giving to Aven and his family.❤Mad respect to you, the film crew, the riders and the paramedics.👏

[@hobmarg]

Love how stoked everyone was when Nicole hit Deadfall... So rad to see Cami and HB sending too.

[@twattster]

This is one of the best mountain biking videos I've watched. A ton of talented riders and some insane features. Super cool!

[@Dukhanstmichmal]

Ryan is just such a dad among those kids - lovely guy really nice to watch!

[@paulbernard2397]

Great event, great presentation and great riders. And superb paramedics.

[@xav_1029]

🤘🏼what a show! Everyone killed it, but Cami Nogueira is becoming one of my favs.

[@ztipsetan]

What a sick day! Much love to all the riders and crew! Sick Video Yoann and Stu!

[@Pugman69420]

Been dealing with a similar injury to Avens for the last three years. Broke my neck racing at the age of 21. Hang in there brother things will get better

[@VikingRagnar-cp7ql]

I have so much respect for all my brothers and sisters out there in Gods creation riding these beautiful lines much love and respect to you all i only wish I could afford a really nice set up to ride with yall and i hope the brothers are healing fast much love for all the DH riders out there party on.

[@offdaystv]

Dude this was so sick!! I’ve watched all of the tour de gnars and this was definitely the gnarliest. It’s weird how this got my hype and frightened to ride my bike at the same time lol.

[@ItUndMedienEinfachErklaert]

I'm not too surprised "Busted Axe Wound" isn't on the list of features this year 😅 Would've loved to see it tho ✌🏼

[@rromeropaul]

No North Van for 2023

[@luca_dierks]

all the best to aven

[@jackiedebrito]

i am a big fan

[@troybluey2158]

Once again best feature show of the year, get so pumped watching this. As a rider in Australia and wishing for features like this and places like this to send it. Well done guys.

[@johnmurphy1599]

Love to see the tour de gnar getting more people involved in the awesomeness! Definitely a bucket list place for me, one day! Great video! 👍💪

[@LackOfJudgement]

Well, this was intense. Also good feel coming out of this. Awesome stuff, guys! 🤘

[@nord270]

[@ridemtb82]

[@stianjarnass]

Wow, this is the best cycling tour (de France:) 👏🔥🔥. Thanks for sharing 🔥🔥👏

[@mtb246]

This video edit was very authentic. Loved the natural convo and interactions as well as all the gnarly riders doing what they love 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾 Look forward to see more of this format 👊🏾

[@RobinStethem]

Glad to see Felipe was alright, never seen anyone shred an evo so hard

[@RapidoRafi-MTB]

Everyone did an awesome job. Looking forward to watching the TDG next year 🤘🏽

[@jonathanangieri153]

hell yes Yoann! So badass ! I will be donating to Avens cause as soon as i get paid.

[@fabriceporeaux69]

Bravo all riders !

[@patrick_jaq]

Absolute insanity... I love it... my riding isnt there yet but I would love to be support staff for this next year!

[@geoffreyszymanski7851]

wah wah ....houuuuuu Amazing and truly inspiring. Merci Beaucoup Yohan pour cette american story à consonnance Frenchy ^^

[@Charliezfabrykiczekolady]

HUUUGE!! it is like watching old freestyle movies, but in a modern edition. super cool! u're crazy 🤘🖤

[@markymorrison]

So rad! Look forward to 2024 🤟🏼

[@ramonbingen2441]

Hells Bells 👌

[@SecretSpots]

There's no camaraderie in sports like there is in MTB. Damn I f___kng love riding MTB!!! This is EPIC!

[@JoJoLaPompa]

Yoann ta moustache nous manque ! Keep it Gnaaaaaaaar !

[@danytheunicorn95]

Love this so much, every year it gets better, can´t wait to go and ride with you guys. Can´t help but feel sorry for those who crashed (I would probably be in that list) it´s hard to say no when you´re already there, but calling the shots like Remy is best, don´t hit something if you are not 100%, especially such gnarly stuff, and well, sometimes we take risks anyway and win, sometimes lose, but as long as we can get back on the bike it´s all good.

[@ssjj9584]

So sick!! Some Real Mountain Biking right there 🔥🔥🔥

[@fussss78]

quelle belle bande d'allumés de la suspension, ça fait plaisir à voir

[@2dcutout]

Who was doing it on an X-Wing Spec Enduro?! Impressive! *Edit* Oh, Phillipe, and he crashed at the end. Glad to see the recovery is going well!

[@schwangster]

Great job!

[@NorthShoreBilletBike]

So inspiring! What an insane day on the bike.

[@BasicBodThor]

Unreal riding, and a fantastic edit!

[@TheDingopaul]

I just love this Yoann been just got back from Squamish and wow what an experience i must say. I do think there is too many people now the smaller amout of people the better i think

[@AndreasScharl]

you guys were all killing it. especially aven impressed me a lo with his confident style. i hope he'll make a good recovery soon.

[@Graemep2]

Those Paramedics are awesome!!

[@leevi_ml]

Just the right amount of madness and good vibes. Keep it up🤘

[@TheDartsPirate]

This has to be the most exciting week by far in 2023 wheb it comes to Freeride MTB content. We get to start the week off with this now legendary event put on by riders followed by Rampage 2023 this Friday!

[@JonathanNomad]

Inspiring stuff. Thank you Yoann. Keep it up 🤟

[@diaph8183]

Troooooop boooonnnnn 🤘😎

[@bigbird2451]

Yoann. You remind me so much of Manny Swan from Santa Cruz. Rock Star hair, slight build and one hell of a charger. He's known as The Banty Rooster for his flowing red hair. Miss you Manny! If you ever want to branch out, perhaps there could be a Cruz De Gnar?

[@bodegacollectivegroup6854]

Pure radness w/ a dash of madness. Props to all involved.

[@cervofun]

I didn't see it yet, but I already know it is gonna be awesome.

[@Frenky.Outdoor]

Wow such a sick bike trip. Amazing job guys🤟🏻 super cool video

[@vinaymenonindia]

Wild work!

[@OTBMaster]

I would never ride these features, I'm too old/scared/etc, and it's hard to see injuries, but it is so awesome to see this level of talent and the mountain biking community on full display.

[@MikeAnSean]

Filming & editing on point for this one 🙏

[@okoeverywhere]

Awesome event! 🔥 Shout out to Patrik Chomist from Slovakia!

[@alexdalton6390]

FIRE

[@MaddogMax]

Such a wild/fun/action packed day! Already looking forward to next year!🫡🍻

[@YoannBarelli_IntoTheGnar]

Max, Thank you so much for getting after it this year, building wise and riding it as well, knowing that you could become a dad at any moments that day hahahaha !! can't wait for next year as well, let's start brain storming !!!

[@BIKEITSN]

My hands were sweating while watching it on the screen... great respect to all riders!

[@supernovaleftover1812]

Excellent film. Warts and all.

[@KevinMinato]

I wish that there was a version without any music in it. Would love to hear the raw riding audio. Incredible riding this year in wet conditions!

[@stirfrybry1]

Pushing each other and finding your limits is the best of times I've ever experienced. I was there 25 years ago when Plattekill started the extreme trend and we stopped racing fire roads

[@pedroarelo]

38:24 love how the guy went sneaky peeing in the back

[@stockprog50]

Everyone is a legend!!

[@IONvideochannel]

Absolutely insane ❤‍🔥

[@ariwahyudiunp7309]

awesome..........

[@marmtb5430]

❤they are all 🔥 🔥🔥🔥

[@joehoeper3941]

Such a rad event ❤

[@ArmorOfZeus]

Crazy how this is quickly turning into a global event! Though i love the DiY feel of this it wouldn't surprise if this event starts picking up sponsors with how quickly its gaining ground.

[@radthaaad]

Nate is so god damn smooth holy shit

[@dam8087]

This is some of the sickest shit out there

[@CranksAndBeers]

so sickkk....

[@andrewhamm3]

It is funny to watch this on a video screen. Anyone who has ridden any of these trails/features, knows just how "undemanding", "gentle-sloping" and "doable" the camera makes these appear! It is an illusion! Every single one of these features would make most expert mountain bikers gulp, and their heart rate accelerate - just looking over the edge. These riders make these insanely difficult, demanding and frightening features look do-able to easy... don't be fooled! This is PRO-LINE+ stuff! Fantastic to watch!

[@GomesMTBCoach]

This would be a dream to ride all this features with you Yoan. Hope soon I have free time to book a trip over there 😎🔥

[@eliasdanieli5461]

The way these guys can handle huge compressions goes outside my comprehension

[@bjfsmith]

awesome. could watch hannah b and cami send all day

[@MarkusFinholt]

Been waiting for this!

[@TheDartsPirate]

Rught! As soon as i finished watching 2022 the day it came out I've been psyched to see 2023!

[@TheAlexmynameis]

This all looks a great way to get a life changing/ending injury! Mad stuff.

[@user-pn9fr6qh5x]

This film is epic! Maybe some povs in the video would be cool or pemby train gap.

[@HeretiCflow]

Pretty ballsy to upload this during Rampage week. This video deserves way more views.

[@flgfish]

Yoann has the best flow in the game. And I do mean his excellent locks. Love the vibes. My man at 38:30 wizzing and caring not a whit. 😂 Sergi Massot got a follower today.

[@gravitytester1963]

Lewis Buchanan for the win!

[@seagulls4life12]

The surgeon line is by far the gnarliest

[@56batbat]

The same whiteout music will be so good…

[@danielcar6377]

😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

[@LifeOfAndrewKing]

🔥⚡️🤘🏼

[@dylanmccann1924]

Lewis looks insane lately

[@borisdufour6390]

dément !

[@StrugeLabs]

damn what back protector is that at 10:45? id love one for my surron and mtb

[@stirfrybry1]

Deadfall is awesome

[@sebastian_cervantes]

Super sick! I just wish there was no generic music going on throughout the video e

[@kennymorris6329]

This is building into something really cool! Why doesn't Remi ride in the Tour de Gnar? Didn't he find half of those lines?

[@j.hughes3555]

That kid at the end is happy to be walking again and then goes on camera with Yoann to say he wants another spot for next year. I cant figure out if thats rad or sad

[@ZestyLife]

Yeah... sad.
