26TRIX fueled by Monster Energy: preliminary line-up

The FMB World Tour visits Leogang and therefore the mountain bike resort will host the world’s best dirt jump athletes. At the end of May, the Out of Bounds Festival takes place in the Bikepark Leogang and of course the 26TRIX fueled by Monster Energy from May 24th to 27th is an integral highlight of the event.

The Freeride Mountain Bike Association (FMBA) classifies the 26TRIX fueled by Monster Energy as an event with Gold level status. Accordingly, a lot of FMB World Tour points can be collected in Leogang resulting in a high caliber rider’s line-up of 20 invited set riders from 10 different nations. They will compete for an overall prize purse of 15,000 Euro.   Take a look the preliminary line-up of this year’s 26TRIX fueled by Monster Energy:  

Thomas Genon, Louis Reboul, Mitch Chubey, Amir Kabbani, Anthony Messere, Szymon Godziek, Brett Rheeder, Linus Sjöholm, Brandon Semenuk, Martin Söderström, Jakub Vencl, Lance McDermott, Tomas Zejda, Sam Pilgrim, Bienvenido Aguado, Sam Reynolds, Antoine Bizet, Cameron McCaul, Yannick Granieri and Mike Montgomery.

Anybody who is not mainly interested in a great dirt jump show, should however come to Leogang and enjoy top class downhill and 4X racing: The iXS European Downhill Cup as well as the Euro Four Cross Series (EFS) guest in the Bikepark Leogang and give the Out of Bounds the character of a veritable festival. Both competitions will be held with the probably best available athletes ever, due to the upcoming UCI Mountain Bike & Trials World Championships. Since it will be the last chance to test the technical demanding championship trails under competitive conditions, hardly any of the title contenders will miss it, be it on the downhill „Speedster“-trail or on the 4X world championship track.      

With the entire concentrated bike action at the Out of Bounds Festival, the fans and athletes have to celebrate properly at night time. Anybody who ever came to the Out of Bounds Festival knows how Leogang acclaims such events: At the Override Afterparty fueled by Monster Energy, taking place on Saturday, May 26th from 9:00 pm at the bottom station of the Bikepark Leogang (minimum age for admission: 16 years!).
