World Downhill Championships and Winterberg

Earlier in the year Tom Kirkman and Tuai Lovejoy set off in the beast that is the Berlingo for yet another trip round Europe. The aim was to make it to the World Downhill Mountainboard Championships in Bardonecchia. This was organised by the Italian Mountainboard Association and our Italian agent Guido. As always with downhill events we had to show people how we think mountainboarding should be and just using standard equipment. The track was fast and in some sections near impossible however it went well. Tom came third which was great considering he rode with no brake and standard 8″ wheels (vs hydraulic brakes and 10″ wheels). Tuai did well too placing easily within the top ten.

After the event the boys headed to Winterberg before returning to sunny England.

The video focuses more on the fun bits of the trip and being freestyle riders it has pretty much only got freestyle in it.
