SALT LAKE CITY (December 20, 2013) -  Already tired of Christmas jingles and crowded mall parking lots?

The 2013 Rampage was held in Virgin, Utah on October 11-13 and showcased the world's best big-mountain freeride athletes picking their best lines down near-vertical sandstone ridges.   Whether you were among the lucky few that attended the event, or seeing it for the first time, you will be in awe watching Kyle Strait become the only rider to have won Red Bull Rampage more than once with his solid and smooth run, punctuated by a perfect suicide no-hander off the top feature of the Oakley Icon Sender.
