FREERIDE Certainly isn't Dead!

Fresh snow in the Alps means a lot of different things to different people. For some, the fresh powder is a dream come true! For Vinny T, it's a chance to ride his bike every day in his favourite conditions! When asked if there are issues from not being able to see the roots or ice patches beneath the snow, he happily responds," That's the best part! I like that you can't see the roots." Watch Vinny T absolutely rip apart some snowy tracks.

What a season! With Nico Vink building the sickest trail ever, Louis Reboul hosting a slopestyle event and a bunch of mates coming from all over the world, it's been without a doubt the best summer so far in Bikepark Châtel. This video is a mash up of all the good times we had riding bikes with Nico, Kristof Lenssens, Vincent Tupin, Alex Volokhov, Remy Morton, Josh Lewis, Raphael Robles, Joel Anderson, Jasper Flashman and many more. Many thanks to the bike patrol team for their hard...

Vincent Tupin nous montre une fois de plus pourquoi il est le maître du roost, du style et du speed en forêt! Nothing we love more than a leafy roost during the fall. Vincent Tupin and Lee Huskinson show us how it's done! #NOSHORTCUTS Edit: Shaperideshoot

August was a really busy month for us. We spent two weeks in Whistler during Crankworx and then drove to Retallack and Nelson to join Kurt Sorge and the Fest crew. After enjoying the best loamy trails we’ve ever ridden in the company of the best dudes to ride with, we had the chance to spend our last couple of days riding at Coast Gravity Park and on some trails of the Sunshine Coast. It was the trip of a lifetime and here is a recap of what happened.

For a lot of people, winter means ski season. The skis come out and and bikes are stored in a cold garage waiting for it to be summer again. We, however, think it’s a bit sad that our faithful companions are put aside just because the trails are covered in snow. We love winter laps and we love snowy sessions on home trails. Basically, we love mountain biking! Here’s Nico Vink, Vincent Tupin, Vincent Pasquier and Gaëtan Rey doing what they enjoy most after a fresh snowfall.

Standing next to his bike or sitting in the back of the truck, Vinny T looks like any other rider. 5.10’s. Riding pants and jersey. Helmet and goggles. But on his bike, his feet are twisted and his hands loose and open on the bars. His style is full of weird, tweaky positions. His flow is as twisty as his grip. He corks the bars so far, his feet come off, and he’s bent up with his one- footer out under the post. When he’s pinned, it’s the cockeyed way he floats above the bike while it blas...

Voici ce qu'il se passe quand on laisse Nico Vink dans un bike park pendant 1 semaine...

MTB legend Nico Vink teamed up with Kristof Lenssens to build the sickest line ever in Châtel Bikepark. Here is a top to bottom preview of the track to get you stoked before we release the main edit next week. Featuring Nico, Kristof and Vincent Tupin aka VinnyT.
