What a month it has been for our local rider Dane. He spent the last week of April at Tweed Base Hospital after rupturing his esophagus which could have put a hold on his trip to Germany for the iXS Dirt-Masters Festival in Winterberg. He likes to blame his mum’s chicken for the tear however she claims he just doesn’t chew his food properly haha! On returning home from the hospital, he was determined to build his strength up again and start training hard for this GOLD-level Slopestyle event.
Well, what a way to start the year! Our local shredder Dane Folpp gained first place in the SILVER open men’s Slopestyle event at the Highline MTB Festival in March.
It’s going to be an exciting start to 2023 for our local shredder @dane_mtb.
Soon Dane will be traveling to Mansfield, Victoria to compete in the open men’s Slopestyle event at the Highline MTB Festival; 16-19 March.
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.
"Dane unfortunately had a crash doing a front flip no-hander and bounced from the top of his airbag all the way to the bottom"
