Trials and mountain bike rider Danny MacAskill just released his new video The Slabs and once again amazes us with riding we’ve never seen before. After hitting the Gym about a year ago with his trials bike the Scotsman now opts for the mountain bike and explores new terrain back home in the Cuillins on the Isle of Skye. Inspired by some of the world best climbers and their dedication Danny came up with the idea of hitting some rock slabs himself. Danny takes us on an intense and nerve-wracking ride down the rocky and insanely steep slabs. Awesome drone and POV perspective filmed on GoPro only, offer a fascinating onboard experience.

“It really felt so natural to be up on these faces on the edge of cliffs cycling down completely in control and fully trusting my brakes, my tires and the rest of my bike – and of course myself. It’s all about believing in your own skills and it was a cool experience out there and I really loved the feeling of it.” – Danny MacAskill

Five years is a long time…and they have not failed to leave a mark on him. But now, after having been with NS Bikes from 2016 to 2020, it’s time for a change for Max Fredriksson. However, before presenting his new bike partner, Max felt the need to say “thank you and good-bye” in a proper way. Not just with a simple instagram post, but with with nearly 10 minute YouTube video.

With a smile in one eye and a tear in the other, the Swedish slopestyle professional looks back on half a decade with his first bike partner NS bikes, expressing deepest gratitude for their constant support and goes for one last ride.

Have you ever asked yourself how it looks inside the garage of mountain and trails bike star Fabio Wibmer? Well, here comes your answer. Fabio invited his longtime partner Red Bull over to his place and showed them around for the latest installment of their series “Welcome to my Garage”

Besides bikes from the past, bikes from the present and motocross machines, there is also a first sneak peek of a bike for the future: Fabio’s Canyon carbon trials bike prototype.

RASOULUTION athlete Fabio Wibmer had a turbulent and action-packed year 2020 and we are more more than happy and proud to have been part of it.

With the announcement of his new bike partner Canyon and their first trials bike as well as his shred trip to Israel in January Fabio already started the past year with a bang. Only to top things during the first Covid-19 lockdown with the most creative edit of the year: Fabio Wibmer – Home Office.

Still anything but tired the Austrian rider surely made best of the year 2020: From trips to France and holidays in Greece, two further video productions for his partners POC and Crankbrothers  and lots of shredding on his home spots.

“What a crazy year this has been! 2020 was one of the coolest but also toughest years for me. Israel is my Playground and Home Office were two of my favorite videos ever and the feedback we got to those videos was mindblowing. The year started great but unfortunately ended with a big crash on my motocross bike. I’m currently recovering from my injury and I can’t wait to do more videos in 2021. Thanks everyone for the love and support. Let’s make 2021 awesome!” – Fabio Wibmer

New year new bike…that’s the credo of Erik Fedko’s new YouTube video, where he not only presents his new dirt jump beauty but directly puts it to good use. Being half bike-built and half dirt jump video, the first part of the clip focusses on the assembly of Erik’s 2021 Rose The Bruce Dirt Jump bike including the parts from his new partner Title MTB and Industry Nine.

The second part of the video shows Erik doing what Erik does best: Showing his incredible bike skills in the nearby dirt park A42 in Oberhausen.

With “IT’S OVER” Swedish slopestyle ace Max Fredriksson presents his very review of the past year’s events. Despite all the big tragedies and dramas that the year 2020 had to over and – on a much smaller scale – all the restrictions and limitations that came along the Covid-19 pandemic for him personally, Max did not experience only bad things, but focussed on the positive.

Max was able to ride and film at the Åre Bike Festival, participate at the Audi Nines or to compete at Crankworx Innsbruck, where he finished seventh. Also, as a professional athlete Max was used to be traveling all year long. However, 2020 gave him the opportunity to take a step back and concentrate on other things, like spending the summer riding and goofing around with his friends or enjoying more time with his family. For example he’s been riding his home compound as much as never before within the past years and did a big give-away session with his fans.

To sum it up: “The year was horrible in some ways, but at the same time it was really good. It was well needed for myself. I got to step back and really just enjoy summer. I feel like my riding is just getting better and better all the time and I am just having fun instead of being on the road constantly competing.” – Max Fredriksson

The new year marks the start of a new journey for Gabriel Wibmer who has made the switch to Canyon bikes. The 18-year-old from East Tyrol is stoked to be able to place all of his various bike needs under the roof of one brand. As his followers know the trials bike will be a favourite, he also can’t wait to maintain his downhill skills with the Sender or shred the Torque and Spectral. Gabriel appreciates the bike diversity by the brand from Koblenz and is super stoked to be part of the Canyon family.

Gabriel Wibmer:

”The anticipation of working with Canyon is huge. I can hardly wait to ride the trials bike and I’m very happy that Canyon has a suitable bike for every discipline I do – the trials bike, the Spectral, the Freeride as well as the DH bike and many more – that’s a dream coming true.”

The Canyon team as well as MTB Brand Manager – Gravity, Jack Noy, are excited where the 18-year-old’s creativity and skills will lead him to:

“We are hugely excited that Gabriel is joining his cousin, Fabio, in the Canyon family. Gabriel’s creativity and skill on the bike stand out for us – and his positive attitude to riding make him a great fit for the Canyon CLLCTV. We can’t wait to start working together and look forward to seeing what he gets up to in 2021 and beyond!”
