There is something about the X Games that inspires athletes to push the boundaries of possibility. FMB World Tour Diamond events are saved for only the toughest and most competitive events on the scene, such as Red Bull Joyride or Red Bull Rampage – so it should be no surprise that X Games Munich joins this elite group of events. You can expect to see all the top slopestyle riders there, competing for the first Diamond event points of the season. Martin Soderstrom is ecstatic about the chance to show off his skills at the X Games Munich. In Martin’s own words: “I would say that everything suggests this is going to be the craziest slopestyle contest in the history of mountain biking. First of all, the Diamond status – so riders will be riding hard to score big points for the world tour. Secondly, all the athletes are super excited to show our sport in the best possible way and to prove that mountain bike is in X Games to stay!”
