Freeriding & Downhill

WARNING

FREERIDING AND OTHER FORMS OF “EXTREME RIDING” RE EXTREMELY DANGEROUS.

YOU CAN BE SEVERELY INJURED OR KILLED IN A SERIOUS ACCIDENT.

Freeriding, jumping, hucking, dirt jumping, mountaincross, downhill, slalom, slopestyle, urban or

street riding or other evolving forms of extreme or hard core mountain biking are inherently

dangerous and can lead to serious accidents. Wear all safety gear and be sure your bike is in

excellent condition. Follow all the instructions and warnings below. These steps will reduce, but

not eliminate, the inherent risks. Even with state of the art protective safety gear you could be

seriously injured, paralyzed or killed. If you do not want to take these risks, do not engage in this

type of riding.

Fundamental Risk

Freeriding, jumping, hucking, dirt jumping, mountaincross, downhill, slalom, slopestyle, urban or

street riding. It seems that everywhere you look, from Mountain Dew® commercials to the

XGames® to the Red Bull®Rampage, riders are grabbing big air and sticking sick drops. And it

sure looks fun.

But what the videos and bike magazines and ads don’t always tell you is that extreme riding

takes an amazing amount of skill. Some of the riders you see are well-paid pros who have

gradually built up their skills through endless hours of practice, and who have also had their

share of stitches, concussions and busted bones (and bikes). Others are daredevils who have

chosen to accept or ignore the risks. Would you allow anyone to say that you are so weak in the

head, and have such poor judgment that you copy those you see in the media without thought of

the serious risks?

The stakes are high if you screw up. Realize too late that you aren’t up to the challenge, and you

run the risk of major injury or even – say it aloud – death, paralysis. In short, extreme riding

carries a high degree of fundamental risk, and you bear the ultimate responsibility for how you

ride and what you attempt to pull o. Do you want to avoid these signiﬁcant risks? Then do not

ride this way.

Product Limitations

Problems of pilot error aside, hard-core riding also beats the heck out of your equipment.

Although we build and test our bikes to make them tough, there’s no way that we can guarantee

they’ll survive your umpteenth six-foot drop. For starters, there is no industry “jumping”

standard. The many circumstances of takeo, landing, speed, rider technique, etc. are unique.

The judgment, lack of judgment or insanity of a rider who may ride a Cannondale bicycle cannot

be completely predicted, so it’s ﬂat-out impossible to predict how anyone’s equipment is going

to hold up.
