This is Home - Laurie Greenland | SHIMANO
Спорт
Growing up, Laurie Greenland could see Bristol’s St. George Skatepark from his bedroom window. It was there, amongst the ramps and rails, a journey began that would take him out to the local trails, through the depths of tragedy, and all the way to the top of the World Cup DH circuit. Despite a decade of chasing his MTB dreams around the globe, he’s always drawn back to the friends, family, trails and waves in the Southwest of England. For Laurie Greenland, This is Home.

This was great to see. I’m in his dads shoes. My wife passed away in April after a 7 year cancer journey. I also have three teenage daughters. I just got back on the bike after a long lay off to care for my wife. I had sold all of my bikes and gear to focus on her and have less distraction in life. Now the bike is one of the only places my mind is at peace.

@@jacobcousins1208 thank you. I sent Greenland a message and thanked him for sharing his story. It really does help alot of people around the world to just know that they are not alone and others have gone through this and made it out the other side successfully.

Surf, skate, ride bikes. The OG cure for everything a doctor wants to give a pill for.

Same here, just replace surf by snowboard. Would love to try one day but don't live close to ocean
I'm a lifelong surfer and skater, but also ride MTB for many years. It's so amazing to know Laurie as a fan from DH MTB world and see this other side of him surfing and skating. He happens to have a very stylish backside smith grind to boot! What an epic guy with an epic father. Cheers Greenland family!
Your mum is always on a mountain she is never ever far away from you. I know the feeling 😢
Laurie is one of those persons you can’t hate, like genuinely a wonderful person with wonderful friends and family and riding like gravity isn’t that powerful. Cheers mate
Another really genuinely great film from Shimano! Thank you. Thanks for sharing your story Laurie, and thanks to the team behind it. Beautiful production!

it's produced by Anthill films, they have an amazing track record. Anyway, a lot of kudos to Shimano and to the Greenland family for making it happen. Sending love to Bristol.

Wherever your Mam is she will be proud of the man you have become on and off the bike and of your Dads job of keeping it going. ❤
This is way better filmed than the uci dh world cup - i hope they safe the sport so people like Greenland can do what he is doing!
Every time me and my 14yo are out shredding together I thank god that I had him at such a young age. It’s literally the best thing ever.
This is the best “This is Home” to date. I got even more respect and love for Loz after this.
Bro your dad shreds !
it was a plesure for me know laurie and his grandmother in andorra this year! This man deserve everything🙌👏👏💪
The soundtrack selection for the riding part, when hitting the big jumps, epic! Well done, great video
More of this content please. Thank you to Laurie and Ben for letting us in to their world
Great guy with great dad and friends! Loved the surf part. At 0:21 the editor had so much fun he made him surf natural :-)
Laurie has been an inspiration for a while now. This series is just getting better!
What a great life! May your mother rest in peace! I am sure she would have been proud of you! I am happy jealous of your lifestyle. Keep it up! 👍🏻
That was such a beautiful picture of his mom. Dad deserves a fking medal he’s literally the #1 dad
That was beautiful. What a story. Go Laurie go. Almost cried.
Thank you for posting this. It was always my pleasure to watch him ride. Now its more !
Great guy! Love his riding style and he seems so chilled and genuine
The ability to switch off from the pressures of DH racing like that is such an amazing thing and undoubtedly gives this guy the power to switch right >ON< and shred when he needs to… just a fuckn’ awesome dude!
I loved watching this man. What a good soul and true to life. I bough Laurie’s knee pads off him at Peatys’ bike bonanza. I try believe he left some of his power in them for me to shred hard! What a guy 🤟🏼🚲❤️
What a great insight into Laurie and his real life, respect for sharing his personal life and neing so open. I'd love to see more video segments with him featuring ⚡⚡⚡
Stevie Smith would be proud. Much love.
Was alreadymy favorite rider because of how much of likeable rider he is, but this has really opened my eyes on the environment he grew up in and what he has had to go through. Great job shimano
What a great piece, thank you for putting something in the world so heartfelt, inspiring and well made. This is a story to help make the world a better place

They edit that, speed it up slightly and use misleading camera angles when he rails etc, this is some pro editing but the guy can still shred no doubt about that. 👍
