First Tracks on the Red Bull Rampage 2014 Venue
Rampage rookie Nicholi Rogatkin is the first to put tires on the dirt at the new contest site.
Shaping the next famous Red Bull Rampage line takes time, and the first three days of building on site saw a field largely focused on carving berms and lips into the steep upper reaches of the course. One Rampage rookie, however, has spent the first three days lining up an entrance into the lower jumps of the course, and on day three he became the first rider to put tires to dirt.
Sunday was the first day competitors were allowed to bring their bikes on course and Nicholi Rogatkin was the only one to take advantage.
“I’ve spent minimal time on a downhill bike,” says Rogatkin in the video above, referring to his background as a BMX and slopestyle rider. “I’m just trying to spend as much time as I can on it.”
