Binggeli Returns to Rampage After Huge 2013 Crash

 

Red Bull Rampage veteran competitor Logan Binggeli, who finished on the podium in third at the event in 2012, didn't enjoy the same kind of luck in 2013. After turning in a clean first run, Logan wanted to take it up a notch in run two, going for a huge backflip off the Oakley Icon Sender step-down feature. He landed it but quickly went off-line on the narrow landing and went over the bars, breaking his femur in the resulting crash.

As you can see in the video above, Binggeli bounced back for a successful 2014 season. "Racing's been really good this year," he says in the video. "I put that crash behind me as a crazy accident, and I'm looking forward to shredding it and giving it my all for this year's Rampage, just having fun and going for the win."

Unfortunately, in a heartbreaking twist, Logan broke his fibula in the same leg one week before athletes were due to arrive on site for Red Bull Rampage 2014. Showing his true colors as a die-hard Rampage competitor, however, he hasn't ruled out taking a run at the brand-new venue during the qualifying round. He'll make his decision two days prior, so send some positive vibes his way and help get him back on the bike.

Watch the live webcast of the finals on Sunday, September 28, starting at 12:30 p.m. MT on Red Bull TV and the official Red Bull Rampage site.
