In 2018 I had the honor of attending the 2018 Motocross Of Nations at the legendary Red Bud Track n’ Trail in Buchanan Michigan to handle the rider support & social media content production for Leatt Protectives.
I shadowed Ryan Sipes all weekend to capture as much of the excitement as possible.
Which was pretty easy considering his team mates for the event being SX/Mx icon Kevin Windham & Action Sports Icon Travis Pastrana.
Get a little behind the scenes look at Ryan’s process on race day & how much fun these guys had.
For this “WINSDAY” let’s take it back to round 4 of the 2020 Monster Energy Supercross Series in Glendale Arizona where HRC Honda’s Ken Roczen showed his first win in multiple years (after possible career ending injuries) just 2 weeks prior to this win was no fluke by sweeping the 3 main events of the “Triple Crown”.
Enjoy going behind the gate & on board with Kenny during Main Events 1 & 3 as he dices his way to the W.
In May of 2020 we headed to Salt Lake City Utah to attend the final 7 rounds of the Monster Energy Supercross series for both GoPro & Leatt Protectives.
2010 West Coast 250 Champ & Idaho native Jake Weimer lives just 2 hours north of SLC so after the final round of SX we went north to Rupert Idaho instead of south to southern California.
We were at Jake & Nicole Weimer’s for 3 weeks getting the taste of Idaho for the first time & it was epic to say the least.
From boating/tubing the Snake River that they live a cross the street from to shooting Jake & his riders shredding a secret sand track next to that same river but out in the middle of the Idahoan Desert.
I also dusted off my riding coaching skills & helped Jake & Broc Tickle handle Jakes 3 day Mx Camp “Camp 12” that had some of the biggest names currently coming up in the sport.
Also can’t forget about the 4th of July festivities!
In 2015 after wrapping up working my second full season of Supercross & Motocross for GoPro I was asked by them if I could also work the MXGP of USA at Glen Helen Raceway on September 20th.
My answer was obviously yes. One, GH is only about 45 minutes from my house & two, I wanted to capture the GoPro onboard footage you see below!
There is always a certain energy & hype (+arguments about who’s better) around the MXGP riders & the Motocross racers here in the U.S. battling it out on the same track that I didn’t want to miss.
I remember it being a typical super hot day at Glen Helen with Jessy Nelson dominating the 250 class & letting all the boys know he wasn’t taking this “off season” race lightly.
He & his teammate Shane Mcelrath both looked to be motivated to show everyone the racers here in the U.S. are the best on the planet.
Speaking of Shane, he was also on the gas with 3-2 finshes for 2nd overall. He was quickest in qualifying as well.
Jessy Found A New Level This Day!
I Was Pushing Shane Mcelrath 70 & Jessy Nelson 79 Buttons All Day. This Shot I Captured By Setting Up A GoPro On The Ground Set in 0.5 Second Photo Time-lapse.After I Set Up The GoPro To Capture The Photo Above I Ran Down To The “Hole Shot” Line To Grab This Shot.
After working the final rounds of the 2020 Supercross Series we headed 2 hours north to Rupert Idaho to stay with 2010 250 West Sx Champ Jake Weimer and get a taste of the Idaho Moto Life.
Jake trains a few local up and coming racers, one being Team Green Kawasaki stand out Chance Hymas.
We linked up with Chance at a secret sand track in the middle of the Idaho desert where he laid down lap after lap, then made a super technical figure 8 track on top of a sand dune that he rode and rode.
Guess that explains why he went on to win a Championship at Lorettas last year!
I see this kid doing BIG things in the near future. – JB
One Of The Reasons For Starting WesJet Entertainment Was To Offer “Moto Mentoring” + Video Of The Sessions For Studying & Social Media Exposure.
Working With Companies Like GoPro & Leatt Protectives We Learned Just How Important It Is For Athletes To Be Posting On Their Social Media Accounts On A Regular Basis.
I’ve Always Enjoyed Helping Other Racers But It Has Always Been A Side Job To What I Was Contracted To Do For GoPro As Well As Leatt Protectives Who I was Also Contracted By For 4-5 Years To Create Content & Handle Rider Support.
It Wasn’t Until My Good Buddy Jake Weimer Asked Me To Be One Of The Coaches At His “Camp 12” Last Year In 2020 That I Realized How Much I Really Enjoyed & Missed Working With Riders & Would Get Back To It Once The Time Is Right.
& The Time Is Right!
So We’re Super Happy To Announce That Jarred Browne Is Back To Making “Moto Mentoring” A Big Focus & Offering Packages For Moto Mentoring, Video, & Social Media Account Management In Southern California.
Last year after working the ATL Sx for both GoPro & Leatt, I took a short flight to Orlando instead of flying home to Southern California.
I spent the week leading into the Daytona Supercross at Moto Sandbox & Bakers Factory in Florida, shooting with the Athletes Leatt Protectives had on their roster that season.
One of which was Venezuela’s Lorenzo Locurcio.
Lorenzo & his Family are some of the nicest people you’ll ever meet, & after hearing his story of their journey to the U.S. from his native Homeland, you’ll understand why.
You know what they say. “Dreams only work, if you do.”
One of our favorite pieces with one of our favorite riders to work with.
In late 2018 we got hit with a lot of rain just prior to the 2019 SX Season that flooded the SX test tracks and left riders looking for a place to train.
Lucky for us, just down the road is a natural terrain turn track that is mostly sand, absorbs water well, and it attracts the best racers in the world after big storms.
We got the call from Leatt Protectives that Garrett was heading our way to ride just before sunset so I grabbed my GoPro’s and was able to get enough footage for a pretty cool little edit for Leatt, Garrett, and well, us!
