Held on the same hill as the Nine Knights Snow contest, the Mottolino Fun Mountain in Livigno, Italy, the 2015 MTB contest was one of the sickest days in the history of the Nine Knights. Riders such as Diego Caversaszi, Sam Pilgrim, Peter Henke and Sam Reynolds were tearing up the hills and pushing freeride mountain biking to new levels.
