 Haha, this is cool! Love seeing am bikes being ridden like this. Just shows you don't need a downhill/freeride bike to go big. Almost got a carbon covert myself, but my names down for the new ibis hdr. Hopefully it can take hits like this to justify my choice Smile great edit, and it may be past midnight but it's made me want to go ride my bike all night just now!

 Anyone notice the rear coil shock he's running? Looks like Vanilla or DHX? I have a covert, and I'm looking to get a vanilla for riding the colorado bike parks. Fun to see someone taking the Covert to this level of Free-riding.

 I like how he said he needs to take a break from free ride cause he's getting older. That was pretty much a free ride edit on an all mountain bike lol.. freakin shredder

 Pop! Pop! Pop! I seriously love Transitions.. They just love to pop everywhere which equals über fun times.

This video makes the covert look amazing. I'm not sure what to get, Bandit? Covert? When you already have a 450.

 One of each was my solution. :-)

 VOD?
so this is what happened to the bottlerocket
a covert you can climb up hills only to bomb just as crazy as a bottlerocket. what a damn concept climb then bomb

 Ya i have a bandit 29er and a 450. So much fun but really loving the enduro style to most right now so I'm leaning towards selling both and getting a pimped carbon covert Smile
