That step-down gets me every time... holy fook.
I hit one a little bigger than that once and it was nuts. Except I was on a dirt bike. And there was an Xbox controller in my hand.
They said in the comments on the last video post 'He just arrived' so i guest this was filmed the day before the Andreu was delivered. I guess he will be riding in the next vid that's if the packaging isn't too hard to get off.
it looks like he almost died, dead sailor to really front heavy on that landing. Huge props to him and for getting back on it again. Nothing scarier than almost crashing (or crashing) on a jump and then going for it again. That's what separates the men from the boys.
I landed like that once, but a bit more tipped, and the next thing I rode was a life-flight helo.
First time in the morning watching this..... Dont know what to do with my life anymore! Well i guess i'll just have to go riding then.....and after that , grab a shovel. No chores or duties are of any meaning today, and I aint no teenager. Seems like you guys just got me in trouble....but I cant thank you enough ????
Bloody great! Teachers should be showing this in lessons,i would. Look kids stop sitting staring at your phone, laptop, pc, games console, and get out there and LIVE!!!
or have a pump track at the school for recess. All great riders progress their skills for years before hitting jumps like these. Rampage is fun to watch, but you need serious respect for how many hours these guys have been shredding for to get to this level.
Actually, that's what I did last lesson before summer vacation: Showed Semenuk's One shot Segment from unReal and some Rogatkin stuff. Wouldn't want to start with the biggest stuff. Must get a feeling for the Magnitude of the fest series.
@Flo-W: Nice one, I think posters put up around schools too would be a great idea, not only for MTB, but for more 'alternative' sports. Give kids a chance to see what's out there, get them inspired. Keep up the good work;
I took my DH bike out yesterday after watching some Fest vids and over shot a hip jump on slickrock, probably bigger than I've ever sent it on that jump out of the half pipe. What a rush!
Those jumps, boosted on MTB's with MX in tow, I've waited so long for these days. It almost feels surreal to see it, sendin' that shit like it's routine. Fest has done what no one else on Earth ever has.
