Hannah Bergemann: The Year of the Comeback — Rampage, Hangtime, and Rebuilding Confidence

In this episode, we sit down with freeride powerhouse Hannah Bergemann — a rider, builder, and event organizer who continues to shape the future of women’s freeride on and off the bike.

After breaking her ankle last year, Hannah spent months rebuilding her strength and confidence before returning to Red Bull Rampage, where she once again proved why she’s one of the sport’s most respected voices.
We talk about her recovery, her approach to line-building and risk, and how she’s turning freeride into a more inclusive space through her event, Hangtime — now a cornerstone of women’s freeride progression.

We also dig into the hidden work behind Hangtime, the emotional side of big-mountain riding, and what real support for women in freeride should look like.

• The mental and physical process of coming back from injury

• Choosing lines and digging at Red Bull Rampage
