Zurich is a busy town... Lucas Huppert shows us how he escapes the daily craziness and rides his favourite spots!

Biking took the 18-year-old around the world this year: Canada, China and Europe, but for this video he didn't have to fly around the world

Big Tricks and combos with style are bringing the Swiss to the top of some FMB World Tour Events. 6th at Fise China, 1st at Gold Event Vigo and 7th at Bike White Invitational are his best results this year... Way to go Huppi!

 lol yeah, anyone who says Zürich is 'fast moving and busy' has either never been to or lived in another city Wink ......

Anyway, nice in style in the jump park.....for the next vid I'd love to see actual shredding in the city, jumping around landmarks etc

 I live in lenzerheide and visited Zurich for the first time a few months ago super cool city, really cool vibe there. It’s about the same size as Hackney haha

 His life would be a lot better if he moved to Basel...

 uh? Basel is like the ugliest swiss city, it almost feels like you're in Mulhouse, but with everything more expensive. I mean, I havent spent so much time in Zurich so I can't really compare, but i'm really curious about what there is to like in basel

 @zede: let me guess... you passed through basel on the A2 highway on your way to mulhouse... once... lol. Plus, you didn't get korev's joke.

 @zede: As @emi008 says coming into Basel on the motorway (and also on the railway) isn't that nice. The city centre is pretty and the banks of the Rhine are like a beach in the summer.

 @korev: @emi008: yeah I didn't get the joke.
As for Basel, I lived in strasbourg for 5 years and I've spent quite some time in Colmar and Mulhouse, and I visited a "couple" of times Basel to see friends, museums and a lab. Maybe I was never there on the good days, but it was grey, the center is nicer than that of Mulhouse (it's not difficult, but compared to Strasbourg or Colmar it blows). As for the Rhine, it is nicer than in Mulhouse, but then zurich has the lake that is also pretty nice.

And passing though zurich in train is not pretty either

anyways, sorry I was a bit strong about it, I didnt really mean to offend baslers
