 these are the most over rated biking videos i have even seen, Brandon semenuk only bikes for the money and is a discrase to the sport. Even at crankworx when he chashed he cried because he knew he wasn't going to get any money and he didnt even talk to the commentator. He just ran past into the forest to go ride some more pethetic dh which he is horrible at, and also he only does a bunch of medium consecutive tricks, no bangers or anything which makes his riding extremly boring to watch. I rest my case.

 at eyerydeproud, sounds like you have some emotional stuff to deal with, so go ride you bike, get it all out, then come back and comment on videos. cause what you said makes no sense. if you actually knew the sport of bicycling, not to mention professional athletes and the level they ride and how they are connected to the sport emotionally. you wouldn't behave like a jealous child.

also, brandon has won all the events that he won fairly, no bad judging. he may not double backflip in comps, but the lines and tricks he does in comps is definitely above average for a professional level rider. oh and at crankworx this past summer was he not the only one to backflip the starting drop?

read before you write, before you drive the sane people to the mad house

 Im pretty sure Brandon bikes because he is amazing at it, and the more important part, he loves it! He didn't cry, he was just pissed at himself, and probably the wind. His DH is flowy and fast, and his tricks are medium? Lets see you do a dump 720! medium my ass!

 EyERYDEproud, first off, shut up. Second, it makes you look like a complete retard when you come out and say stupid ass stuff like, "He only bikes for the money" I am pretty sure the only people who do a professional sport for money are golfers or NFL players, but thats beside the point. If I was going to do something only for the money I sure as hell would not mountain bike ,wait did I just say that because I LOVE it, just like Brandon and Logan. So we would all appreciate it if you shut the f*ck up, and you stop disgracing the sport.

 For once I would love to see the members on pinkbike just negative prop trolls and move on! Don't comment about the troll, don't give the troll more attention, don't "@troll" and preach to it and tell him he is dumb, that's just what he wants! I honestly find the series of comments after a troll's comment more annoying then the troll's. If you want to be proactive report it to a MOD and they will suspend the trolls account if its legitimate.

 I remember Logan came to a small jam we had in Guelph when I was probably about 11 (i'm 17 now). He was so encouraging and even though he was the best rider there; he was not stuck up AT ALL. Sick to see that he is still chill as f*ck while living the dream.

 That trail was pretty tame, and they probably could have handled it on short-travel bikes. I mean, if they really want to be good bike-handlers, they would ride something w/ 4-5".

 Agreed with mike. It isn't hard by any means, but it is far more difficult than the video makes it look. I just find it funny how much faster Ian was down it than them. I guess him being the local gave him the advantage there.

 One of my favorite trails of all times, it's what I think of when I think of Pemby. It's foolish to pass judgement on something you've never ridden. And as Mike said, you beat the truck by a few minutes, easily.
