Video: Chris Akrigg and a Hill In Spain

Chris Akrigg has done it again – another jaw droppingly mental bit of technical trials/downhill riding on video. He’s off the brake-less trials bike and fixie and it’s back on a bouncy bike to pin it down a large hill in Spain.

Shot by respected snapper Victor Lucas, who’s gone to the dark side of moving pictures, the Mongoose sponsored rider is once again doing his own brand of high-speed, highly technical mountain biking. Massive views and mad riding – the quarry section is well worth waiting for…

  1. I hope Mongoose pay him a lot of money – he’s worth it!
    Great video. I’ll watch that a few times.

    Almost as good an editor as he is a rider!

  2. Picks up jaw off the computer…..
    Unbelievbly good, thought it had reached its peak at the quarry section then theres the riding through the town bit.

  3. yup.. he can pretty much ride over anything..!

    like the street stuff, especilly the guy pushing a dump truck up the street.. ;o)

  4. Wonder how many trips to the hospital it takes to get that good, did see him dab though 😉 Gonna watch it again straight away.

  5. @toyrobot

    don’t know why but Akrigg’s stuff always seems more exciting than MacAskill imho, just seems to have more flow and hit stuff harder (again, imo)

  6. Awesome
    Not usually a big fan of “trials skills” vids but this film shows them being put to great use on big mountain riding.

  7. love to see him ride the “calderdale tech” that so many of us here think of as “holy crap” type riding; I’m sure it would sensational to see what he could come up with…

    Stairs of Doom? Some crazy manual to endo, bunny hop spinny flippy thing at warp speed more like…

  8. Well filmed and edited….the bloke on the bike is quite good too. I would love to know how many wheels and chainrings were sacrificed for that vid though …lol
