Red Bull has announced this year's Rampage roster ahead of the iconic freeride mountain biking event which takes place on the 10th and 12th of October 2024. For the first time in Rampage history, the top female riders join the party and attempt to tame the jagged ridgelines and cliffs of the unforgiving Southwestern Utah desert.

The 18th edition of the event will see eighteen male riders – including returning four-time winner Brandon Semenuk – and eight female riders compete over two days. The women are up first on Thursday, October 10th followed by the men on Saturday, October 12th.

Red Bull says that for the inaugural women’s competition athletes were selected by a committee of former Red Bull Rampage competitors, pro athletes, judges and industry experts based on a criteria that looked at a combination of recent competition results, video submissions, and overall ability.

Pre-qualified rider Hannah Bergemann said, "I’m so honored and excited to get to be a part of the first-ever women’s competition at Red Bull Rampage. Red Bull Rampage is the pinnacle event of freeride mountain biking, and I'm so excited for women to have a platform on this stage. I can’t wait to see everyone compete. This will elevate the sport and continue to open doors for the next generation of female mountain bikers."

For the uninitiated, Red Bull Rampage is like no other freeride MTB competition, with riders and their crews building their own lines with huge jumps and drops. The Utah desert terrain pushes dig crews and riders to the very limit. This year's event returns to the same legendary zone that was used last year and has been the stage for some of Red Bull Rampage's most iconic moments in the past.

Only invited riders can compete, and this year's roster is stacked with the world's best freeriders. The men's lineup is loaded with former winners and last year's top three riders Cam Zink, Tom Van Steenbergen and Carson Storch are all eye-catching names. Spaniard Bienvenido Aguado Alba is also back and the Red Bull Rampage 2023 Best Trick and People's Choice winner will be looking to match his incredible run or even better it.

There's no Gee Atherton after his horrific crash last year that saw him suffer skull fractures and damaged vertebrae during race practice. The real excitement for fans is the return of four-time winner Semenuk who missed out last year due to an event schedule clash. Semenuk is sure to be fired up and will be looking to grab another title.

Flying the flag for the female riders are recognised names who appeared at Red Bull Hardline Tasmania earlier in the year including Bergemann, Camila Nogueira and Jess Blewitt.

However, there's no place for Tasmania Hardline winner Gracey Hemstreet who is recovering from injury or the UK's Tahnee Seagrave.
