The Sea Otter Classic never disappoints, and this year was no exception. From the launch of our all-new Spider trail bike—the most talked-about ride at the event—to podium finishes in Dual Slalom and solid top-10s in Downhill, the INTENSE crew brought the heat. With Dante Silva charging hard, Nate Kitchen keeping the stoke high, and even a Palmer-built DS bike making a comeback, it was a weekend to remember.
The 2025 Monster Energy Pro DH Series roared to life at Ride Rock Creek with chaos, comebacks, and some impressively controlled carnage.
