Five teams of riders and cameramen came over to Châtel's Bike Park this weekend to shred the trails of the bike park and the Face: the spot of the Châtel Mountain Style that was completely reshaped with the help of Nico Vink.

The teams had five days to produce the best freeride-video possible. On Saturday these videos were judged on three criteria: best video, best riding and the video that showcased the resort and the bikepark best. This video is from Nico Vink, Vincent Tupin and Benoit Chauvet and was filmed by Bart Cautaerts.

 Last summer going up the chairlift we could see these huge doubles being built up and one that was monstrous! Nice to see them in action. Nico Vink is crazy, so stylish! Would have been awesome to see Brendon Fairclough there too, two of the most stylish riders on the planet. I can't wait to get over there in 4 weeks time, gonna be sticking to the blue and red runs though methinks!!!
