Kaos Seagrave: Quitting World Cup Downhill, Going Full Freeride, Growing Up in FMD Racing & More

Kaos Seagrave joins Olly and Davi for one of the rawest and most inspiring episodes of The Ride Companion yet. From racing World Cups as a junior to flipping 90-foot jumps at Darkfest, Kaos opens up about the exact moment he walked away from downhill racing, the mental battles behind the scenes, and what it really takes to go full freeride.  He shares what it was like growing up alongside his sister Tahnee, how their family built FMD Racing from the ground up, and what it meant to be hand-picked for Deathgrip 2. We also dive into his dream of riding Red Bull Rampage, the challenges Europeans face getting invited, and why freeride gives him more purpose than racing ever did. This is Kaos Seagrave like you've never heard him before.
