ATs Showdown MTB Jump Contest - #ThrowbackThursday 1

The year was 2009 and the crop of dirt jump and slopestyle riders was as high as ever. As part of the SF Bike Expo, Andrew Taylor held his inaugural ATs Showdown at the Cow Palace in San Francisco. At the time, these were some of the biggest dirt jumps around and the list of pros who attended made the event forever memorable. There are plenty of highlights from this video, but a few that stand out to us are ATs yellow wheels, flexfit flat bill hats, too many white powder coated handlebars, a handful of rear detailers on dirt jumpers and R-dog doing a double barspin. Oh, how the times have changed!
