Watch the show on our YouTube Channel: https://gmbn.eu/DSS502 This week on the GMBN Dirt Shed Show, Martyn Ashton is joined by Owen Coutts to recap the 2024 Red Bull Rampage. The world’s most epic freeride mountain biking event stirred controversy this year. Brendan Fairclough and his team built an epic, challenging line but only placed 11th. Meanwhile, Brandon Semenuk won his 5th Rampage with huge tricks. Fans are upset, feeling the event is shifting from its freeride roots towards slopestyle. Is Rampage losing its identity?
