All episodes for season I and II are now available for download in full screen 720x480, 220 Megabytes per episode, extremely high quality, COMMERCIAL FREE and available to anyone, ANYTIME, on a rental basis, for a period of two weeks per episode. Each episode you desire is at the rock bottom price of between Cdn $1.75 to $3.00/episode (depending on how many you choose to rent). All you need is an Internet connection and you're enjoying the show! It’s “Drop In ANYTIME”.

No more small and unclear videos! Finally you can watch all the episodes at full screen quality in the comfort of your home. Each episode is encoded in the latest Windows Media Player V9 compression at the original DV resolution of 720x480 pixels giving the user a very large and detailed picture and the 1200KBps video bit rate allows you to download the 220MegaByte episode files and enjoy the show at near DVD video quality.

All fees go toward covering costs for the high bandwidth quality and to support in the continuation of Drop In. For those of you who have been frustrated by the airing schedule on Sportsnet in Canada, and waiting for Drop In to be aired in your country – worry no longer. We now have an option that will allow us to bypass the Television networks making sure Drop In can be aired to the masses, and through your cash support Drop In will be able to continue producing the show you love.

Follow along: as a group of thrill seeking freeride Mountain Bikers travel on a bus for two and a half months together searching for adventure in exotic and beautiful British Columbia, Canada. See what goes through the minds of these action sports athletes before, during, and after that 60 foot air, while they look at a 35 foot cliff drop for the first time, as they get stitched up in the emergency room, and how they calm those nerves. It’s a road trip of a lifetime on your own schedule from anywhere in the world.

Get involved: Through the www.dropintv.com platform you can view episode teasers, follow the progress of the tour, view still shots, link to the music which appears in the show, chat on the forum with other fans and riders from around the world.
