The first Crankworx Rotorua Slopestyle contest will certainly live long in the memory. Rain delayed the start of the competition, but once the action began there was no stopping the guys laying down some huge tricks and combos on the course designed by New Zealand's own Kelly McGarry.
Riding high off his victory in Rotorua, Brett Rheeder has all the momentum going into the second leg of the Crankworx Triple Crown of Slopestyle. But with the momentum comes pressure, and Brandon Semenuk has his sights set on taking him down.
Fusing elements of slopestyle, dirt jump and North Shore-style mountain biking, slopestyle at Crankworx Whistler brought full-on, gravity-fed, season-defining freeride mountain biking to life.
