PREVIEW

A mountain biker has become the first-ever rider to complete a mountain bike course on a moving train. Dawid Godziek, who holds the title of 2024 Slopestyle World Champion, navigated a challenging course atop a train moving at speeds of 23 km/h. The ambitious project saw Godziek riding over 10 train carriages, executing eight jumps, and performing high-flying tricks including a double tailwhip, a frontflip, and the world's first flat drop backflip to flat landing from stairs on the final carriage. With a narrow 2.7-meter-wide track, fluctuating wind gusts, and limited visual reference points, the project demanded flawless precision from Godziek. After 15 attempts, he achieved a perfect run, creating a stunning "freeze frame" video effect that left viewers in awe. The course itself was a marvel of engineering, built across 10 train cars supplied by Grupa Azoty Koltar.
