I'm definitely pumped on how it came out, and we're already thinking about how to make the next one bigger and better.Ĭheck out a few photos from Jeremy "Twitch" Stenberg's new film, "420% All-Natural." Gallery He's really good at what he does and I'm really good at what I do, and I figured working together we could kill it and make a dope movie.
WHICH STEP UP MOVIES ARE TWITCH IN MOVIE
I've loved every single movie he's ever done. When I envisioned this project I just thought, "Jay Schweitzer is the perfect guy for this movie." He's so passionate about his filming, he strives to get the best shots, and he has the best equipment. How did the collaboration with director Jay Schweitzer come about for "420% All Natural"? 1 dude in the world at riding contests and you had every trick in the book: If you didn't get solid shots we weren't putting you in the movie, because we didn't want to have any filler shots. We got good shots from everyone! I didn't care if you were the No. I just brought out all my friends that I knew could get good shots, and so many people came out. We went out in my back yard in Temecula, we went to Beaumont, Reche Canyon, Santa Barbara, Cambria, Ocotillo, Glamis, and then to Cameron, Arizona. Man, we went to a lot of different places. I'm really excited for everyone to see the movie and I'm pumped on how it came out. "I grew up riding in the hills and that's where I feel most comfortable," Jeremy Stenberg says of his preference for natural terrain.Īfter everything that went into filming it and getting it made, what are you most excited about now that it's going out on DVD and iTunes? It's a documentary about what we do when we're out there having fun and not just putting on a show for a crowd. I grew up freeriding and that's what most of my buddies grew up doing, and I wanted to make sure this movie was truly about freeriding. There isn't a single contest shot or metal ramp in the film and every jump is either natural terrain or something we shoveled out by hand, with one or two exceptions where we used a bulldozer.
I feel like this film is a step in the right direction, that's for sure. Stenberg: I don't know if I've achieved it yet or not, but I know I've put in a solid effort and that is still my ultimate goal. Now that your "Twitch's 420% All Natural" is getting out in front of the world, how well do you feel the film will help you toward that goal? We caught up with him for more on the film and his future plans.ĮSPN.com: You've said before that you've always wished that FMX riders could just go out freeriding and making films and make a career of it, separate from the competition scene, the way some of the top skateboarders and snowboarders have been able to. Stenberg has said he hopes to transition away from FMX competition to focus on freeriding and filming, and hopes the statement he's making with the new film will help make a post-competitive career possible for himself and for other top freeriders. The film, directed by Jay Schweitzer and produced by Powerband Films, features Stenberg and a posse of riders including Nate Adams, Andy Bakken, Tyler Beremen, Vinnie Carbone, Mike Mason, Jeremy McGrath, Dustin Miller, Dan Pastor, Todd Potter, Ronnie Renner, Myles Richmond, Daniel Sani and Brody Wilson. Jeremy Stenberg's new freeriding film "Twitch's 420% All Natural" was released Tuesday through the iTunes Store, just three weeks after its world premiere in Newport Beach, Calif. Jeremy “Twitch” Stenberg previews his new freeride film, “420% All-Natural.”
