A week of memorable and insane Freeride and Slopestyle mountain biking action has wrapped up at the 2020 instalment at the Audi Nines. Multiple world-first tricks were landed as the weeklong event saw some of the best riders competing in the repurposed quarry in the Birkenfeld region of Germany.
The invited riders wasted no time getting to work on the selection of custom-built features, from the expanded Freeride Line and Big Air jumps to the brand-new Slopestyle Line, the riders found plenty to keep them busy.
