I don’t understand why there are so many dirt jump stops on the FMB tour when BMX goes bigger and harder.

Sram/RockShox – May 27th, 2022
Our new suspension started from a blank sheet of paper. We set everything aside and started with one question: how can we continue to elevate every ride? The result is a revolutionary system designed
to deliver unprecedented control, muscle, and performance. New chassis designed with industry-first damper technology, reinvented air springs, a host of new technologies to mute trail chatter and win the fight against friction. Suspension that has the confidence to meet the demands of riders today and empower them to take the sport somewhere new tomorrow.
It’s been five years since Crankworx added a new stop to its World Tour (Innsbruck joined the party in 2017). Today, a new fourth stop was unveiled. Starting in 2022, the ultimate experience in mountain biking will have a new home in Cairns, Australia.

Neither FMB or BMX exist?
i concur.
So because BMXers go “bigger and harder”, mountain bikers shouldn’t dirt jump? Bizarre statement. Sounds like someone’s got their knickers in a twist about big bikes! Can’t we just all get along?!
i don’t think hes saying they shouldn’t jump, just that theres a lot of DJ stops on the tour… like a lot… does the FMB need more slope/big mountain events?
Not having a go at dirt jumpers, getting along, or fun. Just a comment on the professional level of the sport.
Besides; I where briefs not knickers.
I see nothing in this video that I haven’t seen pulled on a DJMTB – not sure what you mean by bigger/harder comment. Also, out of the twenty events rated silver or above on the FMB tour, there are only four dirt jump events. I hardly think that counts as ‘so many’ does it?
If anything I think the only Big Mountain event on the FMB tour (Rampage) shouldn’t be an included stop – it’s such an odd one out, and definitely big enough to be run on it’s own.
