Four-time Red Bull Rampage champion Brandon Semenuk has teamed up with UCI World Cup racer Kade Edwards in ’Parallel II’, a follow-up to Semenuk’s 2019 short film ‘Parallel’.

In the original video (opens in new tab), Semenuk joined forces with Ryan ‘R-DOG’ Howard for a crazy 139 seconds of synchronized, close-quarters riding, as the two riders tackled challenging parallel courses featuring high-speed intersections and opportunities for serious hang-time.

This time out, Semenuk has brought Red Bull and Trek rider, Edwards, along for the ride, as they push their skills to the limit on a custom course in Kamloops, British Columbia.

“I’ve always had a life-long obsession with riding and constantly trying to push what I’m capable of on the bike,” said Edwards. “Brandon is someone I’ve looked up to for a  long time, and being part of Parallel II meant  the opportunity to take things to a whole new level alongside one of the best freeriders in the world.”
