2013 Andreu Lacondeguy - Downunder
When UNIT asked Andreu if he wanted to come and visit the Australian Gold Coast and head to New Zealand to ride mountain bikes, fmx and bmx at the UNIT Farm Jam, he jumped right on it and started to plan the trip. It was a unique occasion to visit southern New Zealand and shred his YT bikes, DirtLove and Tue in the picturesque mountains surrounding the town of Queenstown.
UNIT FarmJam takes place in a breathtaking location 2 hours away from Queenstown. For the first time, the event hosted freeride motocross. A set of 5 natural terrain jumps was built on a hill and Andreu found himself hitting 140 feet jumps on a borrowed motorbike. The vibe was the best and with riders coming from all over the world, there was no excuse not to ride hard. Staying in Queenstown for 10 days was another new experience for Andreu, the small town, which recalls the Canadian resort of whistler, has a lot to offer.
From riding fast trails at the Skyline bike park to big downhill jumps in the Wynyard area, to ride some of the best-shaped dirt jumps of the world, everything within 5 minutes of driving. Definitely a ‘must come back’ for a longer time.
Behind the camera there was Nick Pescetto that filmed everything and came out with this video from the whole trip.

The ENDURO FORMAT
The format will be the same as our last event since it was so well received. It is based on WRC Auto Rally and European MTB Enduros. Our event will feature predominantly downhill timed special stages linked together by non-timed liaison stages. Each rider will complete the courses on the same bike without shuttles or lifts, riding along through check-points to the start of each timed special stage.
Basic Procedure and Rules
· Each rider will be allowed only one bike for the entire race.
· The winner will be the rider with the lowest combined time in the timed Special Stages including penalties.
· Each rider will be required to carry a time card that the officials will use for scoring.
· Each rider will have as much time as they need to cover the liaison stages.
· Riders start in groups and set out on the course following the order of time checks. The rider’s time at each check will be noted on the time card as well as any penalty.
· When a rider reaches the start of a timed special stage he/she will be given a start time and will complete the course alone in the lowest possible time.
· We will score and award prizes for PRO MEN and PRO WOMEN, EXPERT MEN, EXPERT WOMEN, SPORT MEN, SPORT 35+, SPORT WOMEN, BEGINNER MEN, BEGINNER WOMEN, JUNIOR MEN, and JUNIOR WOMEN.
