Although I felt last year was a big success, the global situation did hold us back a little, but we still achieved the principal objective of having the event in Mexico. Freeride Fiesta 2022 looks really promising in terms of spectators, the rider line up and the updates on last year’s course with a new jump. I can’t wait to see all the riders sending it!”
