February 14th, 2012
By Factory Jackson in Features
Nukeproof is excited to announce the signing of Canadian dirt jump star Jack Fogelquist. Jack will ride the Snap 4X Pro bike along with a Scalp DH, Mega all-mountain bike and, already in the prototype stages, a dirt jump frame and a well underway special slopestyle frame project. You can expect to see a sneak peak of Jack’s first proto slopestyle frame soon!
Nukeproof has supported Jack with components for a few years and we were keen to offer him a full factory ride; he loves to ride and is always trying hard to innovate and progress his riding.
On top of riding he’s an editing machine with his great Fogelsode series that is always a winner online. We are sure he’ll be a great ambassador for Nukeproof and are looking forward to helping him go all the way to the top.
Talking about joining the Nukeproof program Jack said: “I’m super excited to be riding full Nukeproof this season! Nukeproof has grown a ton over the past couple years and I’m looking forward to representing them on this higher level. All of their components are top notch, so I know the frames will be nothing less!”
“I’m stoked to be working with Nukeproof to develop a dirt jump and slopestyle-specific frame is an incredible opportunity! Slopestyle is a unique type of riding, so having a bike that is designed purely for it will help a ton. I’m super excited with what we’ve come up with so far and can’t wait to begin the prototyping phase!”
Key events on Jack’s calendar for 2012 are:
Sea Otter Classic
Upside Down and Underground
Teva Games
Jump Ship
Crankworx Colorado
AT’s Showdown
