‘Spring Reboot’ is the story of two of DaKine EU local riders exploring a hidden DIY spot in the French Alps before the season begins.

Built and shaped over time by a local crew, these steep lines follow raw terrain first carved by timber crews dragging logs down the hillside. Over the years the forest left its mark, and spring became the time to bring the spot back to life. A few shovels, reshaped landings, cleaned sections and enough work to get the dirt rolling again. Pickup shuttles, hike laps and run after run through steep, fast lines. The video follows Antonin & Eliott chasing flow before the bike parks open, keeping the wheels turning while the mountains are still quiet.

Anatole Brunel and Eliott Race swap summer heat for the prime soil conditions of spring. The duo explores local freeride lines and timber trails freshly cleared by loggers, highlighting the unique rewards of hiking their bikes through the forest during the off-season.
