We are back at the mecca for big air that is the Darkfest farm in Stellenbosch South Africa! The build begins for the world's biggest jumps and craziest riders, who in a months time will be unleashing their bikes on the famous course, including the 110ft jump Tom Isted landed his world record backflip on in 2023. What will go down this year? Only time will tell, but for now we walk round with Theo Erlangsen, South Africa downhill champion and darkfest rider to see the damage the winter rain has done and see what work is needed! What are you guys looking forward to seeing at Darkfest 2024?!

Damn each year, I have a strange feeling that it was like 6 months since the last Darkfest, and not 1 whole year.

The jumps look so dialled last year, the covers have held up really well. There doesn’t seem like much can change to the line to improve it short of building something totally new. One of the best lines of all time.

Feels like just yesterday I was watching Tom Isted flipping that massive piece of art. can’t wait for the many epic things to go down in the next couple of weeks!

This just made my day. Feels just like yesterday I was watching the world record! It’s also great to see new content while I’m stuck in the cold snowy northern US.

So Soon?! Cant wait to see what new features you incorporate this year haha. You could make a giant dirt quarter at the very end of the line which would be sick 🤘

Please do a speed run with a gopro! You can use the gps data in the gopro to put a speedometer overlayed on the entire video. I think i speak for all of us when i say that this would be amazing, and it really would give us some context on how mad this course is.

Looking forward to this. Gonna be some epic riding at the start of this year alongside the new Hard line in Tassie. Competing energy drinks tho so probably not much cross chat. Stay safe legends
