15 years of riding for and being supported by 4Down Distribution Joe Embrey spent the last year working on a video to mark the occasion!
Balancing travelling to new places to ride with the classic sessions at home with the crew has always kept riding fresh for me, and I found that trying to get on as many trips as possible in between home and work started to get really addictive (in a good way!), so the name "Restless" seemed to fit!
"This edit came together quite naturally. We had no plan other than to visit some places we hadn't been and document sessions with friends around the country. Despite having very different riding styles we soon realised we share the same stoke for finding spots, helping each other get stuff done and document it. There are a lot of parallels - a split part made the most sense!
