In this episode, Olly and Davi sit down with the freeride mountain biking legend to uncover his incredible journey—from being one of the first pro snowboard racers on the planet to dropping into his first steep gravel pit in Kamloops, where freeride mountain biking was born.
Brett shares how freeride evolved into a movement, the bike industry’s initial reaction, and the early days of Red Bull Rampage (including the time he got his bike stolen!). He opens up about battling addiction, disappearing from the scene, and his welcome return to the bike industry. We also dive into Brett Tippie’s life as a father, his thoughts on today’s true freeriders, talk about spotting Bigfoot and much more... This episode is packed with stories, laughs, and incredible stories, we hope you enjoy it!

Brendan Fairclough and Chris Seager join us in the studio to break down everything you need to know about DEATHGRIP2!
Companionship, please don't be a victim of hindsight. LAKA has flipped insurance on its head for bike insurance and now, your health insurance needs too! Head to laka.co to find out more and get a free quote. Enter the code RIDECOMPANION30 for 30days free insurance too!
During the podcast we dive into the story behind the original DEATHGRIP—how it made its way onto Netflix and became one of the most-watched pieces of mountain bike content ever. Brendan and Chris reveal how DEATHGRIP2 pushes the boundaries even further, from insane FPV drone shots to their passion for long form content. Find out how the unfortunate delay in the film's release happened, the wild ideas that brought the project to life, and what makes this sequel stand out from the original. Plus, we chat about the UK premiere tour, behind-the-scenes moments with top riders like Amaury Pierron, Jackson Goldstone, and Kaos Seagrave, and why even the credits are worth watching!

Theo Erlangsen is BACK, and the gloves are off...
In this episode, Theo joins Olly and Davi to break down the leaked Warner Bros Discovery (WBD) document titled '2025 MTB Reform: Evolution of Mountain Bike Racing'. Together, they dissect how the document was leaked, explore Theo's take on the few positive suggestions, and critically examine the potential fallout. Will race teams and riders be forced out? Could a big social media following become more important than race results? Should Chris Ball and the UCI consult the athletes directly? And, what will these changes mean for the future of the sport we all love?
The guys also discuss how tracks could be improved, what the changes imply for the future of mountain biking and the broader consequences for both athletes and fans. Plus, Theo shares stories from his latest adventures, including the Monster Girl trip to Ibiza, the Monster Backyard Battle events, Trans Madeira, and much more.
Please share your thoughts in the comments, we want to hear your views on the current state of our sport...This episode's sponsors & News

Danny MacAskill joins Olly and Davi in the studio to break down his latest film project, CAMPUS.
In this episode, Danny shares what it was like to have free rein to ride at the Adidas headquarters in Herzogenaurach, Germany. He talks about his first visits to the campus, pitching the project with stick figure drawings, figuring out how to ride on top of an Adidas city bike (and how it almost broke his ankle), meeting Bjørn Gulden, the CEO of Adidas, and landing his biggest ever flat drop. He also reveals which tricks took the most attempts and offers insights into his creative process.
Danny further provides tips on how to ride trials, explains why filming on an iPhone is crucial, expresses his infectious love for eBikes, shares his biggest inspirations, talks about his favorite Adidas FiveTen shoes, answers listener questions, and much more. Don't forget to drop a comment to be in with a chance of winning a signed CAMPUS book!
