To clarify Crankworx isn't just slopstyle thats just one event, argueably its the most watched but its not the whole week long.
Slopestyle is just dirt jumping with bigger faster jumps and many more line chioces. Its that simple.
If you go to crankworx you will see two types of bike, either a full sus dirt jump bike (slopestyle) or a hardtial dirt jump bike. Head angles etc etc are basically the same as dirt jump bikes, that simple. You will notice though that most still run hardtials as they pop better of lips and are lighter hence more throwable.
I have an intense slopestyle,I bought it without knowing what slopestyle is,I wanted a slack shorter travel downhill bike because I like the more groomed flowy fast jumpy bike park trails as opposed to the full on rocky downhill courses,I also don't have the balls to need full on 10" travel rig which would have cost me twice as much to build anyway.
Every where I go with it{live in Canada} people comment on how they want one and ask me about,I'd say people are going for this type of bike over here as the groomed courses are really popular
Would an Orange Fruitloaf 2011 be suitable for xxxxxc toastcore and if so, what tyres would be best?
