Slopestyle meets racing in this battle for the first ever Crankworx Whistler Speed and Style.

Crankworx Whistler Dual Speed & Style

On August 11, 2012 the Dual Speed & Style presented by AVID had it's Whistler debut. Britain’s Brendan Fairclough, a rider widely recognized as one of the most well-rounded racers on the DH circuit, ended up in the final with Spain’s Andreu Lacondeguy, one of the world’s best known freeriders. Lacondeguy, who actually has history battling the clock as a DH racer, gave Fairclough a run for his money but in the end pushed too hard and ended his race in a spectacular cloud of dust while the British World Cup racer sailed over the finish line.

In the battle for third place two freeriders were pit against each other; American Kyle Strait who qualified first yesterday, and Sweden’s Martin Soderstrom. Soderstrom was pulling out Joyride-worthy tricks in every heat but in the small final was bucked on a roller and fell, giving an easy finish to Strait.

Proper City Series Volume 2 London

South London is littered with 'council estates' (or social housing). We spent a month exploring these estates with Shaun Jinks, Rory Duncan, Janis Cunculis, Jamie Guile, Dan Figg, Max Wood (aka Peter Prang), Radek Dźwigała, Ben Marvin, and Shaun Jinks. Tonash Goodyear filmed and edited the results. Also thanks to Mateusz Kanownik and Chris Gordon. Somewhere in the mix London was blighted with riots. If the move to demolish these estates wasn't a rush before the riots it certainly will be now. Music By "Phosphorescent" - Wolves
