  • David Lieb is a Professional Slopestyle who competes at FMB tour events across the world. In 2019 Dave won the US Open and today we are lucky enough to be following him down the jump trails at Highland Mountain bike park in New Hampshire. Highlands is one of the best bike parks in America and is definitely worth the trip if you're on the east coast.

    Trails in this video:
    Hellion, ODB, ODC, Catspaw, Fancy Feast, Cat scratch, Upper and Lower NE style, Bonesaw, Threshold, Slopestyle Course, Tombstone, and Happy Hour.

    14:50 and that little segment was some pure poetry man... Homie manualing the berm, then all 3 of you taking different lines off the whale tail hopping around the forest and then back in formation without fault. Super cool to see when riders have good chemistry and awareness with each other! =D

    Quick corrections:
    1. I have the bad habit of mispronouncing his last name even though we're good friends. His last name, Lieb is pronounced LEEB, not Lee-eb.
    2. This was my second time at a bike park on the Force 29. I took it to Killington once last year but wasn't recording. Because of the pandemic, I stayed away from bike parks last year, but now that things are returning to normal we'll be mixing these videos back in periodically.

      The more the merrier Phil ... You could make a 20 minute video riding Highland every week and I'd watch every second.
      One minor critique though, maybe just try and ride level and not do so many tricks a couple runs so we get a better shot of David.
