Sports, Documentary, PG
From the makers of the On the Pipe series, Powerband Films collaborated with 10 time X Games Medalist Colby Raha to bring you "GNARNIA". Gnarnia showcases the absolute top freeride dirt bikers on earth who live by their own rules. Their creative imagination allows them to ride places that were never thought possible before. Their journey would entangle them in some of the most groundbreaking stunts ever seen on a dirt bike. However, Colby was not alone on this journey, he would soon be joined by some of the most elite freeride motocross riders dominating the sport. Scott Kranyak, “A.K.A Skrany”, is a local freeride motocross and urban stunt specialist from Bakersfield, CA. Scott’s entire segment was filmed in Bakersfield in various urban settings. Scott proves that a dirt bike really can ride anywhere the brain can imagine. From jumping off the roof of the Big 5 sporting goods building to jumping over road gaps, building to building jumps at a hospital and a variety of unfathomable tricks, Skrany is the undisputed greatest urban moto rider of all time. Sadly enough, he crashed on a 180 foot road gap and was induced into a coma to relieve swelling on his brain. It is one of the worst crashes that has ever been caught on camera. However, Skrany is mentally and physically one of the toughest humans on earth and would comeback from his severe injuries and plans to ride a dirt bike again. Tanner Chadwick is a freerider whose local riding spot is the St. Anthony Dunes in Idaho. We rented a helicopter and chased him through the dunes as he breaks the natural terrain distance record landing at 281 feet.
