HISTORY
Over 20 years of capturing freestyle motocross progression. Trace the timeline from the crusty VHS days to 8K RAW cinema.
The Moto XXX Era
Jay Schweitzer joins Kurt Haller to produce Moto XXX 3–6 and the punk rock music DVD Eargasm. Run-and-gun VHS culture, standing at the base of unknown ramp hits in the dark.
Ride to the Hills
Jay creates the first-ever organized natural terrain FMX competition. The event pioneered everything modern freeride contests like Red Bull Imagination would later become.
On The Pipe 1 / Crush
Jay teams with Mike McEntire (Mack Dawg) to create On The Pipe. Transworld Motocross Magazine taps Jay to produce Crush — their first-ever motocross film.
Powerband Films Founded
Powerband Films is officially incorporated. On The Pipe 2: Still Smokin' drops, proving the franchise has legs.
OTP 3 / IFC Feature
Another Hit solidifies OTP as the most important freeride franchise. The Independent Film Channel (IFC) profiles Jay as a pioneer of indie action sports cinema.
OTP 4: Another Score
The golden era. Another Score becomes the best-selling freeride motocross film in history. Riders drop into 200ft canyons. Helicopters track Mike Metzger across Ocotillo Wells.
OTP 5: Still Alive
Dedicated to the memory of Jeremy Lusk (1986–2009). Still Alive captures freeride's late 2000s era — backcountry sessions, hill climbs, and a devastating loss.
OTP 6: Pack It Up
The franchise goes global — Australia, Spain, France. Powerband adopts RED cinema cameras and Phantom Flex high-speed systems. The technology matches the ambition.
OTP 7: The Last Hit
The final chapter. Shot on RED Weapon 8K with Freefly drones. The Last Hit closes the era that redefined how the world sees freeride.
