A bit dissapointed that there is no McGazzafest in Queenstown.

FMB is slacking

ldhbaker FL (Jan 20, 2015 at 18:54) (Below Threshold)

What does this have to do with the fmb? It is simply them announcing their dates.

12 2

AndyMandura (Jan 20, 2015 at 19:20)

The FMB schedule still isn't out..

17 7

StanMarsh (Jan 20, 2015 at 20:54)

"What does this have to do with the fmb?" - FEST series made FMB and their point system irrelevant....they killed the FMB!

12 5

bikesandfun (Jan 20, 2015 at 21:58)

fest series does sessions on big freeride jumps, fmb does slopestyle contests. nobody killed anybody

8 2

ldhbaker FL (Jan 20, 2015 at 22:50)

Hardly killed anything. I'd imagine that crankworx alone has a greater audience than all of the fest series events combined. There isn't a single mention of the fmb in the article. It's a completely different group of events, and some might say a different discipline of the sport completely.

bikesandfun (Jan 20, 2015 at 22:57)

don't get me wrong, I love watching the fest series stuff. I'm just saying it's a completely different type of riding.

BillieCook97 (Jan 20, 2015 at 23:24)

i like fest and FMB... i dont see a reason to hate on one or the other, theyre completely different in their own rights

TheFEST (Jan 21, 2015 at 1:50)

Slopestyle is sick and we respect all the riders doing it, they are all friends and they thrown down insane moves. We just dont think that FMB should stand for Freeride Mountain Biking since they mostly organize dirt jump and slopestyle contests. Maybe they should change the name to SMB, Slopestyle Mountain Biking and we ll take care of FREERIDE.

Was just going to post this exact term SMB, couldn't agree more

RLoganSx (Apr 23, 2015 at 11:56)

I don't think FREERIDE really needs to be defined....It's called Freeride...so do what you want. Unless I'm missing something.

jrocksdh (Jan 20, 2015 at 18:17)

Yes spectators can go. No admission just show up at the venue. Last year it was at the Kamloops Bike Ranch.

dude if you haven't landed any 20m jumps or more, dont try to go to lacondeguy and hit them.

1- probably u wont have enough balls to hit it.

2- if you never hit a jump with this dimensios, of course there isn't anyone in spain,(8m like much) so you haven't landed one. you probably gonna stay on a wheelchair.

don't get me wrong, but that's the true reality. i know people that are f*cking crazy, and land a big jumps, and probably they know that they won't have enough balls to hit them.

i can't imagine how can they make this big jumps

jedrzeja (Jan 21, 2015 at 2:58)

Mmmm.. Close your eyes. Feel the wind on your face. Try to believe there is a table right behind the take off. Taste the speed and in the air try to control the bike around your body, so you can land on it, where your body falls. Your body is the main mass that's flying. That's the theory. Practice usually stops in face of fear. I try to take lower flights and than increase the height gradually. Whenever I hesitate I sit on the take off and say to myself: It's not that damn high. There is another way of following somebody just in front of you and doing the same thing. This one usually pulls you through most of features you would not face on your own. This is the end of my experience. I think the extreme jumps are taken after a lot of practice, a lot of falls and after using a really big sponge pool.
