After recovering from an injury, which had our sponsored MTB rider Dane Folpp out of action for 7 weeks, we are happy to report -- HE IS BACK riding better than ever, competing again and gaining great results.

In September, Dane was unable to compete in round 2 of the AST (Australian Slopestyle Tour) at Kooralbyn MTB Festival which was devastating for this young Freestyle Mountain Bike Rider. Only 2 days before the event he over flipped a front flip whilst training at home and broke his collar bone and chipped his scapular.

The road to recovery began and his hopes to compete and do well for round 3, the final stop of the AST (Australian Slopestyle Tour) came true last weekend.

Dane managed to qualify in this Australian Men’s Open category at Greenvalley’s MTB Park and came 2nd which is a huge achievement for this 15-year-old. Dane now has his sights set on improving his results in 2023.
