by 0

This year was the first time that Crankworx Innsbruck hosted both a women and men’s speed and style event. Robin Goomes went all out and is the first woman to do a backflip in Crankworx history. After the events so far, here are the current standings for the King and Queen of Crankworx.

Women’s Gold Medal Run

I can see the tricks are just progressing, so I’m going to have to step up my game and switch things up. I’m looking forward to it getting harder and the progression growing. Hopefully one day we’ll have a final with dual backflips going on.

Jordy Scott

Jordy is now undefeated in speed and style, having won every event since the women’s category was introduced (Whistler 2019 and Rotorua 2020).

Men’s Gold Medal Run

I felt a little bit slow, so I was like ‘ok, change the trick’. Until the end I was just focused on that, waiting for it and praying it’s gonna work. I’m still in shock. I’ve been doing a lot of double flips recently, but I’ve never done it in a race. It’s so stressful to go so fast and push so hard for it.

Not too good about writing about myself, but not so bad at writing about other things. There was a time that I hated bikes, but then they became my life. Wouldn't be the person I am if I hadn't been on this journey. Here's to bikes, drinking tea and everything that comes with life on two wheels. I'm Lauren, I like bikes and writing about them. Always trying my best and up for adventures.
