ANDREU LACONDEGUY

Full of talent and attitude, this fearless Catalonian made his international debut in 2006 as a fresh-faced Kona team rider and set the freeride scene on fire with his no-holdsbarred, BMX-influenced style. Combining tricks from freestyle motocross with racer speed and lines inspired by freeride legend Josh Bender, he won Red Bull Rampage in 2014 and took second in 2015 and 2018. He’s still one of our favourite riders to watch, and even though he claims not to like contests, he’s also bagged medals at the X Games, Crankworx and more.
