Downieville Riverjump photos and videos

The Yuba Classic is back after a year off. It came back as strong as every with a sold out downhill field and close to 400 XC racers. But of course the highlight of the event is always the river jump.

The 90+ degree temperatures were balanced out nicely by the 50+ degree yuba river. This year's river jump feature kids of all ages and genders and a few high-flying acts.

The comentator (red shirt) and judge Mark Weir (blue hat) enjoying the show.


Crowds were gathered all along the banks


The lady in the blue bikini started to direct traffic. Nobody protested.


Action shots:








This year, the competition was so hot that a jump-off was required. Each one of these guys is a winner. Unreal!!
