NINE KNIGHTS MTB 2016: Course and Riders

Sep 052016

Nine Knights Mountain Bike is back, with a new location and a banger rider’s list that will blow up your mind during a full week of shootings, new tricks, new records to set, and never-ending air times.

The Nine Knights series (Nine Queens & Nine Knights for ski and snowboard, and Nine Knights MTB) comes out every year with the most creative and dizzying features in the world, every year writing the history of these sports. The keywords are: Progression, Records, Adrenaline and of course Photography, the most important element of the event.

For the 6th edition of NK MTB, the host venue will be the little town of Reschenpass, South Tyrol. The new course is taking shape, combining classic freeride, dirt jump elements and a slopestyle section, and was revealed few days ago by the designers from Balzamico Trail Design, joining forces with Andi Witmann and our athlete Sam Reynolds; Built along an avalanche mound in Haider Alm, in the Venosta Valley, the new course offers the riders unlimited opportunities to be creative and mix styles.

It includes two super step-ups, 12 and 18 meters long; a 7 meter high quarter-pipes with dirt landing, possibly one of the biggest ever built for mountain bikes; a flowy freeride line, and huge kicker.
