Video: Looks Like A Session

Apr 8, 2021
by Sarah Moore  


Trek’s all-new Session. It looks like a Session… or does it? You decide. The IFHT/Mahalo My Dude crew hit this one out of the park.

Below is a recorded Session introduction with Cam McCaul, product managers, engineers and other pro riders. Learn about the downhill bike from the people responsible for its creation. Plus, some footage of it under World Champion Reece Wilson.

 @ADGproductions: Sarcasm friends, I'm all for more IFHT vids promotional or otherwise. This is better than 99.9% of the product intro vids out there.

 Massive kudos to IFHT, that really is the full package of film-making, acting and attention to detail everywhere.

Right up there for me with my other favourite ad, the Stumpjumper one from a few years back. I admire both companies for being willing to take the p*ss out of themselves a bit!

 Best commercial I've seen in decades. Shows a real understanding of the community that most marketing and ad teams lack
  • 20 2
 Yeah. Much better than those wannabe Hollywood ads by Specialized, or YT.

 best of all in my opinion is that there's no sign of extreme riding, no boring slowmotion on grass and soil thrown up in the sky by a rocketing rider, no jumps that scares a boeing 777 pilot, just a couple of shots of the product, a funny plot and it's done..... seems easy, but it's not.

 Looks like the only session I'll be getting is coming soon, to a few gnarly drops about 50km away - when trails are in prime conditions to ride again!

 Although, I'm not a big fan of Trek bikes this was awesome and well done (of course it's from IFHT) Definitely, aimed at the real deal MTB demographics

Two thumbs up!
