Freeride: Freeride, also known as Big Hit or Hucking, encompasses a wide spectrum of gravity-defying exploits, ranging from downhill racing without the constraints of a timer to navigating North Shore-style elevated trails and executing jaw-dropping jumps and stunts. This 'do-anything' discipline demands exceptional skill and aggressive techniques as riders tackle challenging trails and stunts. One emerging trend within freeride is "slopestyle" riding, which combines big-air stunts with BMX-style tricks on specially constructed courses featuring jumps, drops, quarter-pipes, and wooden obstacles. Freeride bikes, weighing between 13 to 18 kilograms (30 to 40 pounds) with 150 to 250 millimeters (5.9 to 9.8 inches) of suspension travel, are meticulously crafted to withstand the demands of aggressive riding while maintaining climbing prowess. Riders have the flexibility to customize their bikes to suit their preferred level of aggressiveness, adding an element of personalization to this exhilarating discipline.
Embark on a thrilling adventure into the heart of four-cross racing and freeride mountain biking, where adrenaline-pumping action awaits at every turn.
