Franz Elic Grossmann competed at the Urban Downhill Race in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico last weekend. Unfortunately, had a very bad crash which has resulted in a coma.
We are hoping the best for him.
His family and friends from Austria are on the way to Mexico right now to support him.
We want to support Franz and his family during the recovery. So every donation is important. You can send your donation via
GoFundMe.
Please also send him your best wishes via Instagram:
instagram.com/grossmann.fThank you very much. As soon as there are any updates about his health we will post it here.

2. SO, reading the threads ( and I do love urban DH ) I am left to wonder if many if not all who postulate the sue and blame podium understand that this is very much a rider assumes risk type events. This is easily obvious why these events are not supported or done in the U.S. Lawyers would be lined up along side each feature awaiting their payday off any sponsors back. Blame someone else, make someone else pay. This is why we see these events in second and third world countries.
3. The finger turns back at me every time I ride DH , be it at the Bike Park, the illegalily built DH trail or at the local dumbed down advocated trails. DH is not risk adverse, I have learned that through many medical bills myself. Each repsonsible rider knows what they assume. If not, they should attend Berkely and find comfort in a safe place. Real world , real world rules. Not fair? Yes it is life.
All the best.
