 It was a tight competition, I didn't envy the judges...The bar at this competition keeps getting raised every year!

 The editing in Robin O'neill's video was great, I think Dan should have been second though.... amazing work by all nonetheless

 Amazing talent, fantastic show. I loved the fact that Tim went all in on a creative and well executed narrative that completely set it apart from everyone else. Tim is going to make as big a splash in the mountain bike world as he has in snowboarding. Can;t wait to see more!

 I think 1st 2nd and 3rd should be reversed. Just my opinion though..

 i think dans was the best because it shows that riding isnt about a competition, its about going out, ride some killer trails, and have the time of your life with your friends.

 Nice to see the original Froriders in a shoot together....probably the last time was a decade ago, the old guys still freeriding. That's history right there! I was at the show, and blown away by ALL the shows.

 It's just nice to see the slideshows actually available online this time around. Normally they disappear in to the ether directly after the contest wraps up.

 Dan's was pretty fun (funny as well) to watch. It was a more playful production.

The others were awesome as well.
