Jess Blewitt is a rapidly rising star in both the downhill and freeride scenes. Jess isn’t far into her mountain bike career, but has already stood on World Cup podiums and ridden the infamous Red Bull Hardline. We hear how Jess discovered downhill and why she shifted her focus from skiing to mountain biking. Jess shares her thoughts on her two World Cup seasons so far and takes us through the huge injury she suffered in Snowshoe and how she approached recovery. Jess is an incredible talent and definitely one to watch for the future. So sit back, hit play and listen to this episode with Jess Blewitt.
