I don't see any redbull stickers on his helmet. Yet.

Jaytje71 (Nov 24, 2012 at 0:16)

Just a matter of time.

RatHunter83 (Nov 24, 2012 at 13:14)

That was the first thing said after he won Joyride.

Pabail (Nov 25, 2012 at 3:15)

Steeeeeeeeeeeezzzzzzzzzyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!!!!!

Double grab super stretched superseater, decade, 3 double whip, bar whip 3 & a nice clean nac all in one vid? You win Thomas, and you deserved it at Crankworx too. I always like watching you ride. Your combos kick ass.

I was thinking that maybe all the guys that were supposed to win Crankworx crashed out and instead this guy won. I'm slowly realizing I was wrong.

larryssman7 (Nov 23, 2012 at 21:54)

well, maybe just a touch.

dirtjackson (Nov 26, 2012 at 23:12)

i was thinking the same thing til this vid. kid ripsss

rayy (Nov 23, 2012 at 13:15)

So much clean stuff being pulled right there. Thomas has a great style, kind of reminds me of Mr. Martin Söderström, but he's no copy of "the machine"

Ha. You so funny.

yoya539 (Nov 25, 2012 at 7:21)

i actually love martin and i think no one can compete with his style, but on the dirt jump it seems that genon have a bigger trick bag! shish, and i am aware of his street awesomeness!

hodges (Nov 24, 2012 at 3:05)

Pubesy! What a gun.

He is obviously an awesome rider, no doubt about it. And I admit. All I've seen of him has been his Crankworx (both events) sessions.

Was he always throwing tricks like this?
Or has his (some might say) surprise win in Whistler made him think. "I better step my sh*t up ASAYesterday"?

Still, sick video. SOLID edit. It seemed like a change from the wave or 'slow motion' edits that plague the internet!

Teekanne (Nov 24, 2012 at 12:23)

He was pulling cracy tricks earlier. Watch him at 26trix this May: www.pinkbike.com/video/259860
(he won!!)

finnrambo (Nov 23, 2012 at 16:51)

I love the way this is edited! he deserved that joyride win for sure, look at this guys talent!

madmon (Nov 24, 2012 at 8:54)

the fact that there was nobody cheering and just silence with the music was killer. He sure can ride bikes. A few years from now he will be riding huge mountains like the Claw

SGTMASON FL (Nov 26, 2012 at 11:31)

I not a fan of DJ stuff generally... No particular reason... "it's just not my bag baby"...
BUT, that was ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC and I have a new found respect for those talented lads!
Awesome stuff! Thank you for posting up the vid!

omtimasprime FL (Nov 23, 2012 at 12:00)

Thats the reason why he won redbull joyride at kokanee Crankworx this year!!

tenacious3l (Nov 23, 2012 at 22:43)

Bud Light Crankworx*

Doesn't have the same ring to it does it...

omtimasprime FL (Nov 25, 2012 at 9:03)

yup kokanee krankworx sounds way better than buudlight crankworks definetly

Afl505 (Nov 23, 2012 at 21:06)

Well, I guess i'm going to the dirt jumps tomorrow. This just got me really stoked to go ride.

LordFly (Nov 24, 2012 at 10:42)

That was awesome! Makes me wish it wasn't winter

jhopism (Nov 23, 2012 at 16:38)

sam pilgrim, thomas genon and mat macduff in one game of bike= best thing ever

Wipeout1996 (Nov 23, 2012 at 18:11)

thomas would kill

jessedrury (Nov 23, 2012 at 18:44)

Macduff doesnt really fit in with that group of riders

thomaluettgen (Nov 25, 2012 at 3:52)

MATT SHREDS!

harm0n20 FL (Nov 23, 2012 at 23:55)

WOW. I'm gonna say it, VOY.

Chapeau l'ami !

joesimkins (Nov 23, 2012 at 14:11)

TommieXD (Nov 24, 2012 at 5:34)

Proud of this guy, he puts our little Belgium on the map...

maxram7 (Nov 24, 2012 at 9:13)

I got truly stoked at that trick on minute 1:33 wow! awesome riding! the music fits perfectly the video's theme

ConorWG (Nov 24, 2012 at 13:00)

That edit had nearly as much style as the riding and thats saying something.

Relentless211 (Nov 23, 2012 at 12:33)

arlando (Nov 23, 2012 at 16:54)

Can't believe the truck driver to tail whip, that is incredible!

Jaredstandish69 (Nov 23, 2012 at 20:05)

Coeniedh (Nov 26, 2012 at 11:01)

Erin-C (Nov 26, 2012 at 17:53)

What?! Three Bar to Whip!

bfroo (Nov 23, 2012 at 12:05)

Legit threat for years to come!

Bjammin (Nov 23, 2012 at 12:16)

So Awesome. Great soundtrack. I'm not sure I like the little black and white interludes though, it kinda stops the momentum

williee (Nov 23, 2012 at 14:25)

what was the stuff at 3:08 ?

discombob (Nov 23, 2012 at 14:46)

Damn... so smooth and fearless. Extremely impressive.

shimyshalka (Nov 23, 2012 at 15:26)

Suuuch a sick rider, and so young also!

wolftwenty1 FL (Nov 23, 2012 at 16:46)

How long till homie is wearing a REd Bull helmet...?

High-Flying-Roller (Nov 24, 2012 at 12:54)

Well put together film and impressive riding

RatHunter83 (Nov 24, 2012 at 13:16)

Great vid with some dope tricks. The triple whip was sick!

camerondodd98 (Dec 1, 2012 at 15:58)

triple whip? when?

freemanbr (Nov 24, 2012 at 16:15)

What was that powder + fire they used on the jumps ?

alpine-e (Nov 25, 2012 at 6:10)

Portland cement i would guess, not sure of the fire normally a mist of water and pack the $&@"@ out of it makes it good and firm

jackdirtjumping7 (Nov 25, 2012 at 2:46)

being a semenuk fan this is not a pretty sight.....

elicwhite (Nov 25, 2012 at 10:49)

THIS was filmed in Austria?! WHAT have I been missing...!? OMG

artridersierpc (Nov 25, 2012 at 15:19)

kbakes (Nov 23, 2012 at 11:59)

yeahbro (Nov 23, 2012 at 12:22)

I'm not, he's a dirt jumper and rampage showed us that he can't handle big mountain.

Downhill340 (Nov 23, 2012 at 12:23)

I'm also "diserpinted".

aiken (Nov 23, 2012 at 15:17)

Can't handle big mountain? I was there bro and he definitely looked more than capable considering the travel and geo bike he was on and the lines he rode. All round sick rider! Yeooowwww yeah Thomas!

11 0

lumberjerk (Nov 23, 2012 at 16:48)

He is obviously more comfortable on smaller bikes, and I am thankfully not diserpinted.

pasi-voelkel (Nov 24, 2012 at 5:14)

where da f*** do you see style in that edit? he's a banger thats true but he got no idea of what style even looks like

mcdo (Nov 27, 2012 at 10:02)

Can you explain me what is style ? That I can be better ...
