The iXS family: Strong representation, strong performance
Whether downhill, enduro or Puky balance bike race – our iXS athletes were right in the thick of it. Wyn Masters from New Zealand secured a strong 3rd place in the Elite Men's Downhill, while Gaetan Vigé from France narrowly missed out on the podium in 4th place.
Sam Reynolds (UK), Rob Heran (DE), Iven Ebener (DE), Vitor Büchli (CH), Renata Wiese (Chile) and our entire DH Talent Team also impressively demonstrated what they are capable of. We are particularly proud of the iXS Gravity Alliance with Lino Neumann, Thore Hemmerling and Lea Stornebel – even though Lea had to sit out due to injury, her spirit was palpable.
Community & Connection: iXS up close
The festival was not only a sporting success – our stand also became a meeting place for the community. Daily rideouts with our athletes, relaxed popcorn sessions, product advice and lots of good conversations made the iXS spot a feel-good zone.
New formats, proven highlights
In addition to classics such as the iXS Downhill Cup, new formats such as the Best Trick Contest thrilled the audience. The focus on sporting highlights was positively received by athletes and spectators alike. The iXS Dirt Masters Festival 2025 has once again demonstrated how diverse and vibrant the mountain bike community is. For us as the iXS brand, it was a pleasure to be part of this great event. We would like to thank everyone who was there and are already looking forward to next year!
