The Bell adrenaline ranch is back and visitors to this year’s Stampede will be treated to new gravity defying tricks and heart-stopping stunts from some of the best extreme athletes in the world.
Bell is switching gears from water to land for 2014 and performers from Evolution of Extreme and XPOGO have signed on to entertain the crowds.
“The Stampede is thrilled to have champions of extreme sport at Bell adrenaline ranch - world record setting athletes, jaw dropping stunts and for the first time in Canada XPOGO,” says Andrew Shaw, programming entertainment coordinator.
Evolution of Extreme founder and godson of Evel Knievel, Keith Sayers, is back along with X-Games gold medalist Heath Frisby who will perform his famous and outrageous snowmobile stunts. Cody Elkins has also signed on to show off his ATV tricks.
XPOGO performers are pioneers of extreme pogo and are making their Canadian debut at the Bell Adrenaline Ranch. The group currently holds 13 world records for pogo stunts.
“As a long-time partner of the Stampede, Bell is excited to sponsor such a unique and energizing show this year,” Loring Phinney, vice president of corporate marketing for Bell. “Bell adrenaline ranch has gone from sensational water sports to extreme motorsports, making every year at Stampede a new and exciting experience.”
Bell adrenaline ranch shows run daily and are free with Stampede gate admission.
