Sam and the boys will begin remodelling the Vuurberg farm in early January to prepare for the arrival of the invited riders and the insanity that\u2019s sure to follow.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">DarkFEST dates will run through the first week of February 2019 with more public days and additional viewing sessions throughout. If you can make it out to Stellenbosch to\u00a0witness the shred, bookmark the 8th and 9th of February in your calendars.\u00a0The public days at DarkFEST don&#8217;t disappoint either, if you want to get a taste of the excitement.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">&#8220;We&#8217;re inviting some of the worlds best riders again, many returning faces from last year and maybe a couple other legends as well,&#8221; &#8211; Sam Reynolds.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">The full list of riders is to be announced soon.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>For now we can confirm:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: left;\">Sam Reynolds (GB)<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: left;\">Adolf Silva (ES)<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: left;\">Ethan Nell (USA)<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: left;\">Tom Vam Steenbergen (CAN)<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: left;\">Brendan Faiclough (GB)<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: left;\">Theo Erlangson (ZA)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">&#8220;We always want to make it bigger and better and it was already pretty damn big and pretty damn good last year, so it&#8217;s going to be a real challenge to make something better than that. We are totally up for it and I know I&#8217;ve got the two guys for the job!&#8221; Sam Reynolds.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">So there you have it, the 2019 edition of DarkFEST is locked and loaded and ready to blow minds in true FEST Series fashion.
