Rider Gets Loose In Dusty Chute
For most riders, tacky dirt is the dream. Riding over a predictable surface on which braking is possible is enough for most of us.
Freeriders, however, are different. Many of them actively seek out the loose steep chutes to ride just because they can. Watch Sergio Massot descend one such chute in Utah below.
Riders seek out sandy steeps to ride because it is a unique style of riding. Since it is too steep to brake, riders are forced to go where the hill wants them to. The loose dirt is just like pow skiing.
Descending dusty chutes is a tradition as old as freeride. In the late '90s, riders took their bikes up steep sand embankments and dropped in. These steep lines were the beginning of freeride. Read about Brett Tippie descending these chutes below.
It is a popular trend to go to the vast expanse of Utah and find steep lines to ride. For this reason, Utah is the Mecca of freeride.
