All the action from the Teva Slopestyle 2012 mountain bike event. The freeride event was the first for Queenstown, and by the looks of things, it won't be the last. The riders were treated to a packed out crowd in downtown Queenstown, on a purpose built course designed by Teva MTB rider Kelly McGarry and Tom Hay.

 The 1st place run was a wash. Bar spin --> x-up --> flipspin? Kinda lame compared to the various flairs/decades/double tailwhips imo.

 A lot of these shots had people going out of frame or heads cut off... You need to work on keeping people in frame this was really hard to watch.
