DEATHGRIP: First Glimpse Teaser – The New Film by Clay Porter and Brendan Fairclough

Today began more than ten years ago when BRENDAN FAIRCLOUGH – one of the sport’s most influential riders and CLAY PORTER – one of mountain biking’s most experienced image capturers, became friends. Now their vision for the future of the sport has emerged. The duo, born and raised worlds apart, have come together and this is their story…

For the last two years, Fairclough and Porter have traveled to every inhabited continent on the planet with a simple goal: to show the world a new vision of mountain biking. Joined on this quest by a collection of the most progressive and influential riders that this generation of mountain biking has to offer, Fairclough and Porter have embarked on an all-out assault on the bleeding edge of the sports limits. Today, Fairclough and Porter are releasing the first glimpse teaser to this tale and officially announcing their mountain bike film, DEATHGRIP – a relentless mission to challenge the limits of creativity, technology and the human potential.

DEATHGRIP is a creative oasis for Fairclough and Porter – a place where the raw expression of Fairclough’s riding ability is captured with the most progressive filmmaking technology against the backdrop of the most visually engaging locations in the world. This first glimpse teaser offers a sneak peek behind the curtains, a first vision into what is destined to be the year’s most exciting film release.
DEATHGRIP will debut its world premiere in Fairclough’s home city of London, England in April 2017. The film will set sail on a global premier tour including a North American premiere at the Sea Otter Classic in Monterey, California, bringing DEATHGRIP to live audiences around the world. The film is set for a global digital release on April 25, 2017 – the day before track walk of the first World Cup round of 2017.
