Video: Crazy drone footage from New Zealand

Antione Buffart’s day in the bike park with a drone hot on his heels

Go on board with some impressive drone piloting and follow Antione Buffart through the forests of Endor … errr, New Zealand. Shaperideshoot gets up close with this drone footage, which feels as much like the chase scene in a movie as it does a bike park follow cam. Buffart’s riding looks effortlessly smooth, despite being hounded by the tiny robot, which must be at minimum twice as distracting as being followed too close by a rider on “as-loud-as-they-are-expensive” hubs. With camera and drone technology improving so quickly, how long will it be until we see full speed downhill course previews from a drones-eye view?
