I would have to say either the North Shore being developed in 1996, then coming to our attention with Kranked 1 and the article in the June 1996 issue of MTB Action with Alison Sydor, or when Josh Bender dropped the forty footer for the first time. These two events started what is now the phenonemon known as freeride/slopestyle. Without these two events happening, Crankworks, Psychosis and the Red Bull Rampage wouldn't exist.
I also have to mention the invention of suspension!

When Jason McRoy came back to beat Myles Rockwell at the 1993 Reebok Eliminator with no factory support. All he had was his dad and a little money they scraped together to keep his little old GT running.

He was the man. RIP. That race had a lot to do with getting me into mountain biking. I remember watching that exact coverage on prime time cable TV Big Grin and being obsessed from that moment on. I got a nice bike soon after.
