My friends and i started a whitewater kayaking festival that has grown into a X-games/Music Festival & brings crowds of around 3,000+ people. This year i have been asked to add mountain biking to this event. My friends and i have made a XC race course, and are in the process of building a few freeride obstacles. The freeride obstacles will be ladder drops from 5 to 18 feet in height, and possibly a large wooden kicker into the river (bring a lake jump bike). We are giving away large cash prizes for the XC race, and Team XC race. The freeride event will mainly be a crowd pleaser as hardly anyone from this area has ever seen a freeride stunt performed. I'm inviting all riders from the SE and beyond to come join in on the fun, camping, beer, partying, raffles, riding, and prizes this year. On top of kayaking and MTB'ing, we'll have a wakeboard competition, and rock climbing competition. Compete in all four events for the ironman trophy. Location is on the Locust Fork River in North Central Alabama. The festival will be held on March 18th - 21st, entry fee will be $25 for MTB competitors, and the payoff will be much more ! The wakeboarders will have a winch system, two above ground pools next to the river, and rails connecting all bodies of water...should be interesting.
