While Europe is celebrating its beautiful winter months, the alpine region of Saalfelden Leogang invited some of the world’s best slopestyle riders to the 10th year anniversary of the mountain bike slopestyle event, White Style. The battle between the athletes was the greatest in the event history. Szymon Godziek clinched a consecutive victory after beating Matt Jones in last runs of the contest.
It was great to see Russia’s, Pavel Alekhin winning another best trick at White Style. The Russian athlete had previously won the Best Trick Contest back in 2013. Next to the giant slopestyle course made from snow, a mountain bike downhill race took place just before the White Style finals, Austrian hero, Fabio Wibmer won the Scott Snow Downhill Dual Race in front of Austria’s top UCI Mountain Bike Downhill World Cup rider, Markus Pekoll.
if this is the first event of the year, and riders are already pulling tricks like backflip cliffhanger, cork 7 can can, flip doublebar to whip, flipwhips are common...then this season will be crazy as f... ! cant wait
Szymon dzięki! Chwała wielkiej Polsce!, mamy zdolnych ludzi w każdej dziedzinie najlepszych, a tak jesteśmy niedoceniani...obserwuję was chłopaki od początku waszej kariery, z Dawidem nawet miałem okazje razem polatać w szklarskiej. Jaram się za każdym razem kiedy gdzieś was widzę, na jakimś evencie, a jak wygrywacie to dre jape na pół osiedla Gratuluję chłopaki!
Even tho the snowball feature wasn't much to trick on I bet it was kinda fun to hit. Stoked to see Jones straight on the podium for Banshee on it's first outing. Skills.
