With Wibmer's Law, the East Tyrolean now shows that the hustle and bustle and stress of the big city don't exist for him either - as soon as he's on his bike, he's in his own world:
Anyone who lives in a big city, or even just visits it from time to time, knows the phenomenon only too well: a working life accelerated to the maximum and a society in which, above all, the necessary time for oneself is lacking. Fabio Wibmer sees things differently! Turning Innsbruck, Salzburg, Vienna and Linz into his own personal playground and forgetting about everything else isn't easy, of course, but the 24-year-old masters everyday and tricky situations in his usual confident manner. He escapes a door accident by jumping over the open door with a bunny hop and skilfully dives under a sofa that suddenly appears. Even a falling piano is no match for the trial bike pro. Fabio takes shortcuts over roofs and no gap, no matter how big, can stop him. With handlebar rides, a front flip through the building site, powerful drops and a double backflip on a step down, Fabio makes his way down the track. This leads the East Tyrolean further and further out of the city until Fabio's inner calm and the surroundings finally harmonise. Fabio has reached his destination with the help of his trial bike and enjoys the sunset in nature - far away from the hustle and bustle of the big city.

"I have realised that the world is spinning faster and faster and that social life - especially in big cities - is characterised by a hectic pace. Of course, I feel the same way. When I get on my bike, I manage to escape this hectic pace for a while and find peace and quiet. I wanted to convey this message through Wibmer's Law. Hopefully others feel the same way."
Fabio comments on the production itself: "Shooting Wibmer's Law was actually the most challenging shoot I've ever experienced. We needed a lot of attempts for some shots, sometimes even several hundred. Of course, none of this can be seen in the finished clip."
But in the almost 48-minute "Behind the Scenes" video, which is available exclusively on Red Bull TV can be seen.
The filming of Wibmer's Law took over a year in total. The backwheel hops on the bike racks and the G-turn scene with the businessman are likely to be particularly nerve-wracking for the entire crew, requiring over 300 and 500 attempts respectively. The film was mainly shot with light equipment. The main cam was a GH5S on a Glidecam, otherwise two A7IIIs, several GoPros, a drone and a racing drone were used
