so looking at the crankworx season they have 4 rounds so at most it'd roughly cost them 280 grand tops for the slopestyle season.

70k was for the 6 riders.
if slopestyle gets 20 riders it might be looking more towards 500 grand, per round, maybe closer to 750?
so like what 2 million or thereabouts for a 4 round season ?

That’s definitely a fair point. I do think the riders have a point and even though it’s come to a head now, if you watch any of the riders that have done videos on it, it’s been something that has been a while coming. As you rightly point out the bike industry is hurting pretty bad right now so it’s hard to see a way out of the current stalemate.
Whilst I have massive respect for the riders, and what they do, they really have backed themselves into a corner. The options would be:-
1. Live with what you have, or
2. Breakaway and start their own series.
The peak of slope style is crankworx whistler, how could you replicate that? I can’t see how.

I can. Red Bull. They support crankworx but could easily take it over. And expand it. But you are not wrong. They are in a corner so it will be interesting to see how it goes. I just hope everyone comes together and we see them hit Cairns.
