EMTB Podcast

This weeks guest is no stranger to danger. Having competed in the Downhill World Cup since 2021 and twice at Red Bull Hardline, Jess was ready to take her place at the very first women's edition of Red Bull Rampage, but sadly things haven't worked out quite the way she had hoped.

We also discuss life in Morzine, adjusting to hitting the biggest jumps in the world, racing at the pinnacle of down hill mountain biking and much more.

Note: Sadly the camera failed to focus for the first half of the video. Sorry Jess!
