It is official- for the first time in the NS BIKES history, we are going to sponsor the Dark Fest event, which will take place at the end of May this year! Thanks to NS Bikes UR Team rider- Sam Reynolds, we were invited to support the 2021 edition of the most insane freeride/jump line event of the year.
"Darkfest is designed and run by the riders for the riders, highlighting the world’s best Freeriders digging and hitting the biggest jumps possible on a bike. The prizes are rider-voted and are given to the winners following a week of jam-format riding."
On the Dark Fest course located in Stellenbosch in South Africa, there will be a limited number of invited-only riders. Sam has chosen the best of the best in the game. Shredders whose names stand out of the crowd at any event worldwide. This is why we are extremely stoked to have two riders riding NS bikes up there- Sam Reynolds and Szymon Godziek.
