    now THIS is freeride!! Reminds me of the very first couple of Rampage events - finding sweet lines down sick terrain no need for tricks just style for miles and balls of steel. Props to Gee and his crew for another truly amazing ridgeline vid! You've come a long way since seeing you make a crazy tree root gap at PORC waaaaay back in the days (muddyfox era)

      You brits are delusional, stop trying to pigeonhole what freeride is. If Gee could trick these features he would! You know what looks cooler than a a steezy straight air? A steezy trick. Sorry the sport is progressing and your favorite riders are riding like it’s still 2002

    as born and raised Mountain Biker from Almaty Kazakhstan, the big city that surrounds the mountains in the video, i'am so proud that people are exploring my country outside of BORAT Boundaries, we have a lot of different mountain ranges - and very big filming potential for segments like this. We also have 3 bike parks, that are fun and beginner and expert friendly.

      You could see it almost went wrong and the post landing bounce to off camber rock strewn landing was unexpected. He rode it out on a knife edge of skill and luck but knew he was in the hands of the gods for a second there.
