well it's their loss... maybe they're scared he'll show em up!
i remember seeing sam at the tate, tootlin' in between the crowds and the main entrance to the gallery ---- with the security guard chasing after him "you can't ride your bike round here..!" bless.

I think i saw Gee's name amongst the list. What a year it would be for him if he could take a medal (?) home as well as the world champs title!
I reckon gully has a good chance - he seems to be able to ride big, tech and tricks all at once. _________________

| Anyone see the Day 1 video on freecaster? That 60ft gap is crazy. Can't wait to see someone do it. :L |

Yeah was awesome. Is great to see Rob Warner presenting too. Could make for some really good viewing.

Haven't been looking forward to a freeride comp for so long. Rampage over slopestyle easy imo  _________________

It was a shame Vanderham had that crash otherwise I reckon he'd have won.
That suicide no hander over that 60ft gap was crazy. |

Heh heh did look unreal.
Think that was awarded the best trick too pires.
Check this pic of Kurt before the stack: http://www.pinkbike.com/photo/2557400/
Am guessing they will be releasing a DVD on the full event at some point? Got the old rampage tin which contained some quality viewing  _________________

*SPOILER* (Just put that there in case a random browser hadn't seen the results yet...)
I don't think anyone here can claim to have expected Semenuk to win... well maybe you did but i certainly didn't! I'm pleased for Vanerham, but yeah, shame about the stack...
