The crew in Kelowna, BC has come out with yet another banger edit. This time, combatting cold temperatures and constant snowfall, Steve Leslie and the Van Steenbergen brothers get their pump on and even attempt a few mid-track back flips...hilarity ensues.

Well, it's winter-time which means it's time for bikers to complain about the temperature, the early sunsets and their buried trails.

The boys from the UBC Okanagan Mountain Bike club have been working hard over the last few years to build an unreal pump track, and several dumps of fresh snow and below freezing temperatures weren't going to hinder their riding.

Bas Van Steenbergen, Tom Van Steenbergen and Steven Leslie build some speed, conquer some ice and try to... flip off of pumptrack rollers? Large props to Pat McCarter, Geoff Hodson, Josh Toohill and everybody else in the UBCO MTB crew for all their hard work and trail maintenance. Also nice work Stefan Gordon for his snow shovelling.
