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.

Berry Routines
World class freestyle BMX rider Michael "Berry" Beran gives us an insight in his daily life. While doing so he reveals his toughest tricks through a high-quality visual concept.
Every second, more than sixty hours of video are uploaded to YouTube and finding unique videos is getting harder and harder. That is one of the reasons Red Bull takes great care to always make their own videos noteworthy. They employed superb equipment and a superb crew in order to make an appealing and groundbreaking sports video. And for Berry Routines they even decided to build custom obstacles to shoot Michael Beran performing breath-taking tricks – at night, with nearly zero visibility, no less. And when it wasn't dark enough outside, the crew moved into an airport hangar and went on shooting.
