Race Back Home: A Two-Wheeled Journey Through Emotion, Roots, and Performance

A docu-series that reveals the heart of Swiss mountain biking as you’ve never seen it before.

There’s a moment, just before the trail begins, when silence speaks louder than adrenaline.

That’s where Race Back Home begins.

Shot across the Swiss Alps and race tracks throughout Europe, and told in the voices of its protagonists, this series created for Thömus–maxon dives deep into the soul of modern mountain biking: a world of grit, identity, ambition, and return.

A Collective Narrative, On and Off the Track

Over six episodes, Race Back Home follows the Thömus–maxon team through a season that’s not just athletic, but profoundly human.

In-depth interviews form the backbone of the story: more than ten voices – athletes, coaches, founders, and partners – open up with authenticity, offering diverse perspectives on what it means to compete, to grow, to fall, and to come back stronger.

Personal stories weave through the landscapes, rhythms, and spaces of Switzerland.

Each episode is a dialogue between the inner and outer worlds: racing and waiting, performance and doubt, triumph and origin.

A Nimble, Immersive, On-the-Move Production

We worked fast, across ever-changing locations, with a compact and agile crew.

The goal was clear: to craft a raw and authentic visual language that captures the spirit of the outdoors without losing narrative depth.

Our approach was editorial, not illustrative – we aimed to create a series with a distinctive, emotional, and coherent identity, one that speaks not only to those who ride, but to anyone who shares the values behind the sport.

A Story That Speaks to the World – Starting From Here

Race Back Home is rooted in Swiss outdoor culture but designed to connect with a global community.

It’s a new way of telling a sports story – not just as entertainment, but as an expression of identity, landscape, and vision.

The journey captured in this series leads to a clear horizon: the 2025 World Championships that will take place in the Wallis area.
