Rampage 2026: Goomes makes history, men's competition halted by wind

Robin Goomes became the first rider to win three consecutive Red Bull Rampage titles when the women's competition opened the 2026 event in Virgin, Utah, on 8 October, according to the organizer's event recap.
### Two days, different outcomes - **8 October 2026:** Goomes won the women's competition. - **10 October 2026:** The men's competition began, but the organizer cancelled the remainder because of adverse weather. Its event page identifies high winds.
A recap should therefore distinguish the completed women's result from the interrupted men's competition. The organizer's account does not support presenting the men's day as a completed competition with a winner.
### A return to the original venue Rampage marked its 25th anniversary at the original venue on Kolob Terrace Road, where the event began in 2001. Riders build individual lines through the desert terrain; the anniversary setting gives this year's result a particular historical context.
This is a report from official event information, checked on 14 October. The event dates were 8–10 October; the organizer's live page displays no separate publication date. Replays are linked there for readers who want to watch the riding and the interrupted men's session.
