Never heard of it before but its increadable what they are doing. They must live off 100% pure adrenaline. Makes me laugh they are having a wind stop asif some sort of health and safety is involved!

You obviously don't understand the impact of wind. yes it makes it dangerous but can completely ruin their line.
I don't ride anywhere near that level. In fact the freeride I do basically looks like road riding. But when I rode at Antur Stiniog, an old Welsh quarry converted into a downhill riding centre, I did a table top jump up the top, there was a gust of wind and it took me off the 6ft+ wide trail. They're sometimes riding down something 1ft wide and when you do a big 40ft+ drop, you'd get blown a considerable way.
Compare the wind to a tide or water current
