In 1994 filmmakers Jon Freeman and Dana Nicholson had been accumulating footage to showcase a behind the scenes expose of the lifestyle of an American pro motocross rider in action, 145ft plus jumps, 45ft high in the air soaring over sand dunes, mountains, houses, buses and anything else secure and steep enough to hold the weight of bike and rider. The end result was Fleshwound Films and the first video Crusty Demons of Dirt. The launch of this video was to change the face of motocross and create Freestyle Motocross (FMX). For over a decade, they took their dirtbikes around the world in search of unique locations and ultimately experienced the most ridiculous adventures. Exotic locations in nineteen countries : the ruins of Machu Picchu, packed arenas in Australia, the mysterious Easter Island, wild deserts in Africa no matter where we go, nothing is ever left the same.

The 3rd installment of Terrafirma continued to build on the formula of great footage and iconic riders with the perfect soundtrack. The T3 opening scene features helicopter footage of desert racing legend Johnny Campbell pinned wide open on a Honda XR 650 on a dry lake bed. This dynamic footage set the stage for the balance of the T3 video which includes 1996 Supercross footage of McGrath’s near perfect season a road trip that captures an initial look at Mike Metzger free riding Jeff Emig’s outdoor title and the 1996 MXON event in Spain.

Fox’s iconic Terrafirma series continues with Terrafirma 5, filmed throughout 1998 and eventually released in 1999. By this time in the sport the age of “freeriding” had fully caught fire, and glipses of the early days of FMX competition can be seen throughout. Mix that together with the classic spread of Terrafirma goods from epic 1998 Outdoor National coverage, freeriding with Ryan Hughes & Jeff Emig at Castillo Ranch, Canadian off-road mad men Guy Perrett & Ian Pavluk, the FMX antics of the late Mike Cinqmars & Mike Metzger and pro snowboarders Mike “Tex” Devenport & Jim Rippey trading in their boards for dirtbikes in the summer. And don’t miss the inaugural US Open of Supercross towards the end. Enjoy!

All the best from the greats of 1999
