Red Bull Rampage finally included a women’s category this year, with Casey Brown doing a whole lot to spearhead it, and the event was spectacular. If you haven’t watched it yet, well, you should. Casey’s run starts at 29:25, but do yourself a favor and watch the whole thing.We sat down with Casey to hear how it felt to finally have the door opened to women; talk about what goes into getting yourself to Rampage as an athlete, and everything it takes to actually be there and put a run together; the process of scouting, building, and testing her line; the competition day and what all went down; how to make the event even better next year; and what’s next for women’s freeride beyond Rampage.RELATED LINKS:BLISTER+ MembershipThis Week’s Gear GiveawayTOPICS & TIMES:Learning that the women’s event was finally on (2:07)Casey’s training & prep, and the logistics that go into competing (6:48)The new venue & building a line (7:46)Scouting a line & coordinating with other riders (14:28)The format of the women’s event (18:28)Casey’s line (20:21)The crux (25:45)Potential changes for next year(31:55)The next frontier in women’s freeride (36:57)OUR OTHER PODCASTS:Blister CinematicCRAFTEDGEAR:30Blister PodcastOff The Couch Hosted on Acast.
