Joey
Schusler
Adventurer / Photographer
A native of Colorado, award-winning adventure filmmaker Joey Schusler is more comfortable in huge mountains than anywhere-especially when he's on a mountain bike. A veteran of the Yeti Cycles racing program, joining the team 13 years ago at age 17, Schusler is a former World Cup downhill racer with top 10 experience in the Enduro World Series. Schusler continues to ride at a professional level, even appearing in freeride segments alongside the likes of Matt Hunter in the 2019 movie, Return to Earth. Through self-produced films such as Huayhuash, 55 Hours in Mexico, The Trail to Kazbegi, and The Kora, and RJ Ripper, he has helped to bring a hardcore backcountry adventure ethos to the forefront of the mountain bike community. Joey can either be found behind a camera making MTB films, or out on big bike packing adventures in the far-flung corners of the world.
