Interview: Vaea Verbeeck on Women Competing at Red Bull Rampage
There is no "development program" for rampage and never has been. Sick guys in the 90s and 00s did crazy stunts in the desert, got called idiots for many years for it, still sent it, did amazing edits and movies, until the sport got bigger and bigger, Redbull saw a chance to earn money, and the dudes thought "hey why not, let's earn money by doing what we love anyways". There was never a "school" for Freeride. The sport evolved by the pure passion of riders. Now with social media it's gotten way easier to earn a spotlight, but in the end it's still the pure riding skill that gives you the crown.
That being said I am absolutely for more women in the sport. And to support it it makes sense to have a women's category in the contests.

[UPDATED] Elite Finals Results & Overall Standings from the Les Gets DH World Cup 2023
This was one of the best races I ever saw. Many of the upcoming really good riders finally getting great results. Super exciting. Great looking track, probably sketchy to rise as everybody was sliding around kicking dust, long time not seeing Bruni looking that aggressive. And then Coulanges how great was that win. And then the coverage was great as well, Myriam with the women's and Charlie on the men, I like the three commentators, with different personalities, Cedric didn't annoy me but brought needed emotion, Ric and the pros gave more technical insights, camera work was great mostly (I found the drone to be too skittish in the woods, prefer normal cameras there, the following on the top part was nice). Love this sport

Pinkbike Poll: How Much Do You Spend on Your Riding Wardrobe?
Pb polls about money are like "how rich are you?" and a surprisingly high amount of people just choose "yes"
No wonder we keep seeing entry level components on 5k$ builds and simple riding jerseys priced at 60 bucks. It's not tHe InDuStRy, it's all the people buying this stuff.
Then there are the bonus points for hating on capitalism and wanting to do "something for the environment".
