Crankworx Summer Series Continues to Heat Up

Crankworx Summer Series (CSS) continues to heat up with two of three Canadian stops – CSS Horseshoe and CSS SilverStar – now complete. With only the inaugural CSS Sugarloaf event left to bring the Ultimate Experience in Mountain Biking to Eastern Canada, the series is set to go out with a bang.  

Featuring a dynamic mix of both international pros and local up-and-comers, CSS stops are an opportunity for the mountain bike community to connect with the next generation and grow the sport together. As we get ready for the final stop at Sugarloaf Bike Park, and the final event of the 2024 Crankworx season, take a moment to reflect with us on everything that has already gone down. 

Crankworx Summer Series Horseshoe Resort 

Horseshoe Resort had an action packed three days, featuring an FMB Bronze Level Slopestyle, Air DH race, and a speedy Dual Slalom. Returning to Ontario once again, we were greeted by familiar faces and a growing community of mountain bike athletes that continue to push the sport in different areas.  

Local Toronto athlete Keon O’Brien secured the top spot in the FMB Bronze Level Slopestyle with an impressive score of 94.00. Just behind him, Ayden Siebenaler and Jaden Chipman finished close, with less than one point separating their scores. Tori Dzenis also had an outstanding weekend, making the podium in all events and taking home two golds.

Rheeder Slopestyle at SilverStar male winner, Nicholi Rogatkin, reclaimed the top step of the podium and remarked, “Slopestyle is a harsh game.” Similarly, Patricia Druwen was feeling stoked with her run after making it down clean on one of her “favourite courses of the year.”
