12-year-old wins in style – the photo story!

Harry Schofield and Roos Op de Beeck won the whip offs at the Dirt Masters festival in Winterberg! Not only was the general, ultra-high level in the final astonishing, but above all the callousness of newcomer Harry Schofield, who is just 12 years old and ended up coming out on top. We have a wild potpourri of jumping impressions for you – have fun with the photo story.

A driver’s name is missing? Unfortunately, we didn’t have all the names of the passengers ready right away. Feel free to help us and we’ll put the name in afterwards!

# Apparently, you had the best overview from the Red Bull container.

# The weather is great and the mood looks as if a lot of people are having a lot of fun here.

# Erik Fedko looks at it first…

# … and then whipped not only across, but also spectacularly overhead.

# Phil Krause goes for style – and white shoes.

# Small height comparison.

# The women were also at the start: Roos Op de Beeck jumped!

# … and Abby Hogie follows suit.

# Despite the entrance fee and the cool weather, thousands of people found their way to the slopestyle area.

# Next door and not in use: the legendary bobsleigh run, where a few years ago a soap slide took place – that would only have been possible this year for the very hard-boiled.

# Fly overhead… – Erik Fedko exaggerated as always!

# Cold hops, flying.

# Noah Koeckerling was in the running for quite a long time.

# If you look closely, you can see a flying bike shadow.

# Even the initial jump was used by some riders to lay crosses in style. – Seen here: Gabriel Wibmer.

# The whip jump was all in white. – Justus Rudolph.

# Steep slopes require sturdy shoes! – and tight laces.

# The unofficial side event “Riddle Fences” was efficiently prevented by the stewards this year – at least until the end of the contest.

# Lukas Schäfer created a good atmosphere.

# Woohoo, Clemens Löbbert!

# Noah Koeckerling in the sunshine.

# Luckily it got off lightly.

# … and lands the safe of the year

# High five, keep going.

# In a process that was not always very clear, one eventually got to the finals, in which the vote was then applauded.

# The wind blew through the park throughout the day, but the whip-off jump was safe so far.

# Roos Op de Beeck (right) wins the women’s Whip Off competition.

# And Harry Schofield fully deserves with the men!

# And Clemens Loebbert hits another one too.

# Alleged life hack of some visitors: Wear the same vests as the security guards.

# As always, there was no holding back after that – Nevertheless, one can state: It was far more relaxed overall than in some previous years!

# The pump track and urban DH specialists Adrien Loron and Thomas Slavik also watched the event.
