The next level of aerial insanity on mountain bikes took place on purpose built dirtjumps and the Kokanee drop during the VW Trick Showdown, part of the famous annual Kokanee Crankworx festival. The usual big guns were out and about, with some ballsy moves pulled, such as Andreu Lacondeguy's double-backflip attempts, which he succesfully pulled off on the second try.

Best Trick Winners:

Session 1 (dirt jump)
Casey Groves (Kelowna, BC)
Quadruple Pendulum

Session 2 (Kokanee drop)

Greg Watts (Santa Cruz, CA)
Step-Down Flipwhip

And as per usual, some photographic goodness from Josh McDonald:
