Video: GoPro Moment with Tobi Wrobel at Suzuki Nine Knights 2014

In this edit, filmed 100% with GoPro, Tobi Wrobel (GER) drops a no hander off the tower then stomps a smooth bakcflip table top over the right castle kicker, finally cruising through the freeride section. Music was pumping, BBQ sizzling, people chilling and enjoying the good vibes in the beautiful setting of Livigno during the public sunset session of the Suzuki Nine Knights MTB. Wet and windy conditions have been limiting the riding time at the castle, but a great forecast is set to make Saturday 21st of June 2014, the battle royal an epic showdown not to miss!



Though this session was cut short due to gusts of wind the riders, got in some nice runs and are amped and ready for the Contest Day.

RECAP OF THE FIRST EVENT DAYS:

The first day of The Suzuki Nine Knights saw the riders sampling the various obstacles on the course, carefully checking their speed and measuring up "Il Castello" with its huge kickers and multitude of obstacles on the extended freeride section. With good feedback on the course the stoke was ON. If you missed the GoPro course preview, take a look here.

Anthon Thelander was going big on the first day

With a filmer peering out of the Flying Bulls helicopter the buzz over the castle was contagious as two heli-shoots were on the agenda on day two. All three kickers saw action and some golden footage was captured as Szymon Godziek landed a lofty backflip on the left kicker and Tobi Wrobel styled it out with a sweet superman on the right one. The second session later on in the day was held on the huge Suzuki hip at the end of the freeride section and though the weather conditions were not quite as good as during the day fellow riders witness a massive hip flip from Peter Henke. Here's the video

The morning of day three saw our eager Suzuki Nine Knights teams headed out at the crack of dawn to sample the long trails and superb bike park of the infamous Mottolino/Livigno mountain bike mecca. The riders quickly dispersed on the 12 trails and dirt jump lines with the filmers and photographers hot on their heals. Returning to “Il Castello” with big grins on their faces, we are sure to see some epic footage of this morning, though the sun stubbornly remained hidden. The evening saw the riders checking out the full course and going for a crazy hip session with riders giving it their all. Tobi Wrobel sent it, stomping a massive table top. Team France were on rapid fire mode; Antoine Bizet turned heads with a clean suicide on the crossbow, while the highlight of the day was a massive backflip from Geoff Gulevich on the Continental step-up.
