Deane Parker

Deane Parker and his mates deal with unfinished business in the Inland Kaikōura Range - bikerafting down the Waiau-Toa, hike-a-biking up Dillon Cone and descending off the summit.

Deane Parker captures on video his favourite close-to-home 'sub 24O' trip. 100% beech forested singletrack, a decent dose of hike-a-bike and a seldom visited classic forest service 6 bunk hut right on the bush line.

Deane Parker takes an enthusiastic new-to-bikerafting crew on a loop of Sumner Forrest Park. His video tells the story and provides plenty of inspiration for aspiring bikerafters.

Deane Parker & Dylan Gerschwitz capture the grandeur, emotion and hurt of the Kopiko Aotearoa.

Deane and Rose belt out a two day bikepacking adventure right on Christchurch’s back doorstep - skirting around the extinct volcano that forms Lyttelton Harbour on the Banks Peninsula.

Deane Parker, along with mates Muel and Luke, embark on a return trip on the Old Ghost Road in the face of a questionable weather forecast. They suffered a full-noise tempest on day one but were rewarded with two magic days to follow as the storm quickly moved through. Dress up, stoke the fire and check out their chilly video.

Deane and his faithful accomplice Muel tackle a gruelling three-day loop on uncertain trails and in uncertain weather - traversing the South Island's main divide from West to East, and back again.

Deane Parker and his gang of usual suspects packraft the upper reaches of the Whanganui River to the Bridge to Nowhere, mountain bike the Matemateonga Track to the Whangamomona Pub, and hitch a ride (almost) back to their starting point on golf carts converted into railway jiggers.

Deane Parker, Rose Green and Rod Harrhy tackle a variation on the classic Cass-Lagoon backcountry circuit - taking the 'direct line' up Craigieburn Valley ski field.

Deane Parker, Sam 'Muel' Jones and Rose Green mountain bike and packraft their way across Kahurangi National Park.

Damian Stones and Deane Parker join three like-minded, and possibly equally bonkers, mates to bikepack and packraft their way from St Arnaud out to Kekerengu on the East Coast. The adventure has been beautifully captured in this award winning video.
