15 year old Max Xu may not have a drivers license yet but he definitely got his permit for sending huge gaps like this in Grafton Mesa Utah.

Video of the Day
Getting an invite to film an X Games Real MTB entry? That’s already a tall order.
Actually making the damn thing? That’s next-level suffering.
This behind-the-scenes doc on Matt Macduff’s entry is a sobering look at just how much blood, sweat, and freezing nights go into crafting one of these 90-second bangers.
And if you missed his entry from last year, we dropped it below. Because watching Matt defy physics (and common sense) never gets old.
Enjoy!

Industry News - Annie Ford Sets World Record for Most Vertical Descent in 24 Hours
Annie Ford has just redefined "downhill domination" by setting a new world record for the most vertical descent in 24 hours.
Tackling Coronet Peak in New Zealand, she completed a staggering 133 laps, racking up 55,727 vertical meters. That's like dropping from the cruising altitude of a jet, twice!
Armed with her trusty Santa Cruz Nomad, Annie averaged 9.5 minutes per lap, even clocking her fastest time 12 hours into the challenge. Talk about endurance!
The previous record of 40,840.5 meters was held by Germany's Amir Kabbani and Patrick Schweika. Annie didn't just break this record; she shattered it in under 19 hours, leaving plenty of time for a well-deserved nap.
But this wasn’t just about pushing limits. Annie’s ride was also for an incredible cause!
She took on this descent to help regenerate native forests at Coronet Peak, ensuring the trails she just shredded stay surrounded by thriving ecosystems.
Want to support her mission? Head here and throw some love (and cash) toward a greener future. Every bit helps.
Epic work Annie!

Trail of the Day
Formula Uno - Desierto de los Leones, Mexico
Formula Uno is pure speed: Fast, flowy singletrack with a mix of natural and artificial jumps to keep things interesting.
The off-camber turns add just the right amount of spice, making it a test of balance and commitment.
Stay off the brakes, trust the turns, and get ready to send!
Laugh of the Day
Bike shops are so dangerous 😂
That’s all for today folks. Hope everyone gets some saddle time today. See you all tomorrow! 🤙
For the ❤️ of two wheels.
