Wanted: Red Bull Rampage Reporter for YT Industries

Rampage Reporter

In the middle of October, we’ll be packing our bags and heading to Utah. To join us for this trip to the mother of all freeride events, we are looking for a “fan-correspondent” to report via social media and keep the YT community up to speed on everything that goes down at the event. If this sounds like something for you, apply now via Facebook or email.

Facebook: facebook.com/yt.industries
E-Mail: rampage-reporter@yt-industries.com

Most of the YT Family will be in the Utah desert to attend this final event of the 2015 FMB Tour. YT Team Riders Andreu Lacondeguy (ESP), Cameron Zink (USA), Kelly McGarry (NZL), Yannick Granieri (FRA), and Robbie Bourdon (CAN) will be competing for the ultimate crown of freeride – and you, the YT Rampage Reporter will be right there with them.

If you ride bikes as well as you communicate, if you master social media and are intimately knowledgeable about the mountain biking scene, then you are the right man or woman for the job! You also need to be at least 18 years old and of course, you have to be available from October 12 to October 18. From digging lines to the final runs, you’ll report on the year’s biggest and baddest event in real time via Facebook, Twitter, and co! Thanks to your personal media accreditation, you’ll be able to move freely around the site, accompanying the riders and experiencing first-hand the raddest behind-the-scenes stories. Flights and accommodation will of course be provided by YT.

If this opportunity stokes you out, submit your applications and a short biography (in written, photo, or best of all video form) to YT’s Facebook page or via email.

Be as creative as you like, and show us why it’s YOU we should take to Utah!

Read the Terms & Conditions.

 I hope they don't sod of to Utah before they ship my Capra. 7 weeks late already, not impressed.
  • 6 2
 This is why I ended up paying $300 more for a closeout '15 nomad. Just sayin'

I still haven't got my email saying my capra that I reserved months ago is here. (2 months late, also)

 Was this for the Al 1? I ordered mine in early August and it's supposedly stuck in customs and is unable to be tracked... so "it's out of our [YT's] hands..." Worried that it will turn into a 7+ week delay. So far pretty unimpressed with their costumer service... Anyone have a similar circumstance or knowledge about how long they will be in customs?

 I need to cancel that order anyways, so it doesn't really matter to me.

 @UtahBikeMike and @kind0fimportant both of your orders are currently 2 weeks behind the expected delivery. We realize this is pretty lame but please understand that this is truly beyond our control. We are always open to suggestions on how we can help our customers and look forward to hearing (directly) from you. Thank you for your patience as we work through our first year of operations.

This is the first I've heard anything about it, wich is why this whole ordeal is lame.

I was rolling the dice buying a bike I've never ridden and i couldn't get over the fact it doesn't have a water bottle mount.

For $500 more i got my bike same day, supported local business and got some swag with my purchase. Not to mention the bike was carbon.

Having a hard time seeing the value in YT at the moment.

 Keep in mind its only for Rampage. Then you go back home back to your job as a bike assembler at your local Walmart. But heck, maybe you can get a YT bike out of it.

 maybe the YT reporter can find out why Andreu Lacondeguy never has his own build crew?? he's used logan B's and connects to others lines. Even Will White has his dad and Nana come build. Andreu Lacondeguy must know someone in Canada or something?!?! Riders are always complaining about poachers.....

Probably going to get neg'd for this
