Who is Redbulls insurance company?

Every ski hill needs to sign up with whoever lets Rebull do the crazy shit they do. Downtown slopestyles? Crashed Ice? Rail jams in fucking Cincinnati?

Redbull is bringing the new action sports genre to the masses and doing it safely too. Ski hills could learn a lesson or two from them...

I bet they could make their own insurance company if they wanted to.

Red Bull simply ensures everyone that what they are doing is fucking rad.

God, what happened? If redbull sponsored this, then where is the single barrel, on fire,  80 foot to 110 foot rail down the sky scraper ?

Well the downtown Red Bull event was a blast, and it was safe. So much so that there is going to be another one, maybe even later this year.

Actually I guess Cincinnati really enjoyed that event because not only is there going to be abother event but that video is also going on the Jumbotron in Fountain Square which is pretty exciting considering I helped make that edit. We are all really stoked.

I will say tho, that Red Bull did get on everybody that didnt sign the papers, but othere than that it was crazy, people were disastering the kink and landing in the streets, front flipping off the trailer drop in, and getting towed in by a wake board cable. Overall it was crazy but oh so fun.

cinci rail jam was super legit. only redbull could pull that off, in april, in cincinnati. idk who their insurance is but at the jam i had to sign like 10 pages worth of liability stuff so its prolly pretty hard to sue if u got hurt/run over by a bus

it seems to me likle anyone who would ride in a redbull event wouldnt be the kind of dumbass to sue cause they hurt their own dam selves. i know i wouldnt sue if i got hurt in an event.
