Brooks/Gatzka Win Third Round of UFC IV - Round 4 Online!

We’re now officially at the halfway point of the fourth annual Ultimate Freeride Challenge. The 3rd round of voting has come to an end with Matt Brooks and Jared Gatzka taking the win.“This marks another UFC first” says Race Face’s Marshall Rutman “We’ve had group entries in the UFC before but none have managed to advance to the semi-finals. I think Matt and Jared put together a really strong video – obviously our online community felt the same way as they took a convincing win in this round.”

Matt and Jared now move on to the semi-finals where they will face the winner from Round 4. The winners of our semi-final round will be flown down to the Sea Otter Classic and on April 16th at the BIKE Magazine Video Awards, we’ll tally the votes and announce the winner of the fourth annual Ultimate Freeride Challenge.

But before we get ahead of ourselves, we’ve got another four new videos to check out. Here’s the riders who’ll be competing this week for that one last semi-final spot:

Joe Perrizo – 20
Derek Alexander - 19
Jonas Green - 24
Steve Tuchiwksky - 19

Now go online, view the vids and vote for who you think should advance for a chance to win a sponsorship contract with Race Face, Giant Bicycles and Manitou Suspension worth over US$25,000!
