MATEO, Calif., Oct. 7, 2024
/PRNewswire/ -- Today, GoPro (NASDAQ: GPRO) announced its
return to the iconic red cliffs of Virgin, Utah for the 2024 Red Bull Rampage as
the exclusive action camera of the world's premier big-mountain
freeride mountain bike event. For the first time, Red Bull Rampage
will feature a women's competition on October 10th, followed by the men's
competition on October
12th. All riders competing, including four of
GoPro's mountain bike athletes, will wear GoPro's flagship HERO13
Black equipped with an Ultra Wide Lens to deliver immersive POV
throughout the competition.
In the highly anticipated women's competition, GoPro athletes
Vero Sandler and Casey Brown will compete against the world's
best female freeriders. Both riders are renowned for pushing the
limits of the sport, and now, they will make history competing in
the first-ever women's event at Red Bull Rampage.
The men's competition on Saturday, will feature GoPro athletes
Reed Boggs and Brendan Fairclough, two longtime Red Bull
Rampage competitors.
"Red Bull Rampage is the ultimate proving ground for freeride
mountain biking," said Rick
Loughery, VP of Global Marketing at GoPro. "We're excited to
see the world's top female and male freeriders throw down their
best lines and capture all the action from perspectives no other
camera can match. Red Bull Rampage is the perfect venue to showcase
the durability and performance of our new GoPro HERO13, while
giving fans an immersive experience of mountain biking's most
spectacular terrain and unique features."
With GoPro HERO13's new Ultra Wide Lens, fans will experience
the magnitude of every jaw-dropping moment like never before. The
premium HB-Series Ultra Wide Lens Mod expands HERO13 Black's field
of view to 177°—36% wider and 48% taller than shots captured with

for silky smooth video stabilization.
