Despite a scorching weather, hundreds of fans gathered along the always demanding downhill course on the Stożek Hill.
Riders from twelve countries competed in nine categories. As usual though, the most anticipated contest was the final of Elite Men.

The Diverse Downhill Contest weekend in Wisła was full of action with the final day preceded by Monster Energy Whip Contest on Saturday evening, when Sixteen riders tried their chances in a whip jam session. All of them had thirty minutes to bend their bikes in the most stylish way.
