New Cratoni Downhill Helmet
	The first time we saw the new Cratoni Downhill Helmet in action was at the World Championships in Sierra Nevada / Spain when Nico Vouilloz raced it in the final. We think that Cratoni did a good job and we are waiting for the date of sale.
DELDYCKE wins Dual Slalom
	Michael Deldycke won the Dualslalom race at the european Championships. Second place went to Steve Peat who qualified first.
German Championship
	Marcus Klausmann became German Champion in Downhill. The race was held in Tabarz in the east of Germany and second place went to Markus Bast who was second last year, too.
	In the Junior Class Andreas Sieber won. But this is not the point. It was only his 3rd Downhill race. Befor he raced Todtnau and the World´s where he became 12th. Before he started to race Downhill he was racing Moto-X and quit two years ago. Watch him for the future!

	At the World´s in Sierra Nevada Myles Rockwell did the impossible he beat Nico Vouilloz at the biggest race in the year. Myles ,who had bad löuck with injuries in the last couple of year made a perfect run to beat everybody in the world. So watch out for a stoked Myles Rockwell!!!!

KARIM AMOUR´S BIKE
In Metabiefe we had the chance to take some picture of Karim Amour´s Downhill bike. It is probably the same that Nico rides but when you stand next to the track it is way different. But it is still a smooth bike that everybody dreams of.
