Hey Pinkbike, for those of us who can't watch it live, when you post the results on the homepage can you just post a Red Bull logo or something? Because you guys often put the title image as whoever won it, and that kind of gives it away.
Keys to success #2... Percision? Whoever is proofreading should not be jacked up on the sponsor's brew. The commentating means that I'm watching this with my own soundtrack already, now I'm looking for additional typos too? I just want to enjoy the riding.
Ongoing Pinkbike problem. They give away the results or put the winner directly in the headline, people (including me) give them a ton of shit for it, the next few times it's done right... And then we start over.
Also with the commentating, does every jump have to be either the "redbull sender, redbull hip, budlight cannon, budlight whale tail" Just have one feature which has the sponsors name, like should have been the redbull cabin and budlight whale tail. I understand that the sponsors want their product to be called out but does every feature have to be a "sponsor jump"
Well..... first prize is 25k.... second 10k .... 3rd 5k.... for risking paralysis, so yes, in fact, they should start naming the landings and superfoluous features example, the Tampax absorber and the Kohler toilet bowl. Lets get these righteous dudes paid. Peat finished 4rth and gets squat.
Hey PB! Really appreciate the time and skill it takes to put all this Live content together for us, for FREE! Best web site ever... like everyone doesn't know this already.
To everyone in the UK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I think the London time should say 12.30am as there is no such thing as 13.30am plus London is an hour behind Paris and Cape town which are at 1.30am. Don't want you to miss the first hour of the (second) greatest show on earth! (behind Rampage).
It's precision not percision. Jesus the coverage from red bull is awful. The 3-4 min recap videos put up by pinkbike the next day is ten times better than the full live coverage..
ahhh just watching the countdown now this is almost as bad as waiting for bike parts haha, it gunna be sooo epic shame pilgrim and soderstrom arent riding thoe
rumors, be that he was partying too hard, haha... but saddened, he is out again, just like in les deux alpes.. he seemed to de really good at munich.. with the 720!
My live stream isn't working, can some1 give me an update after the first runs ? Thanks for making me miss joyride for the first time in 4 years redbull
Red-Bull ain't been RedBull since they stopped importing it in little glass rectangular bottles. Now it's just a run down equivalent to Monster Energy or Gatorade, the true definition of sadness, unless you go to Thailand or somewhere they still let people have fun.
Redbull, Monster Energy or whatever is on sale where you live, they all contain taurine. It is a drug like coffeine (coffee, tea), or amphetamine. Notice the sufix is the same: "-ine". The drugs group is called stimulants. They only differ in intensiveness of effects and risk of using. Each stimulant forces your body to work over its natural preferations. Amphetamine is the strongest stimulant, so it is forbidden in most countries. Taurine like Redbull is forbidden in only some countries of Europe. Coffee is allowed, but it does not mean it is healthy. I experience noticeable diggestion issues after a cup of coffee. The drawbacks don't mean there are no advantages. I can ride for five hours non stop before I have to return home, but if I drink 0.5litre of Redbull, or something similar, on my way back, I feel like going for another five hours. This usually stops after next two hours of speeding with even more exhaustion sumphtoms. Although you can "have fun", it is definitely unhealthy. The only stimulant I haven't checked yet is the natural guarana, like in a juice or fruit. If you feel like having more fun in action sports I recommend a good sleep, light breakfast, bananas, pasta, fish. Depending on your blood type. This should be enough.
Stoked to get there. Haha i only could got a one way ticket, so i would really apreciate it if i could get a lift to somebody. We could split the gas. Still stoked to get there
1.Brandon Semenuk (WHOOOOO!!!!) 2.Brett Rheeder (Sooooo close...Messed up a trick he had in the bag...must have been nerves or something) 3.Anthony Messere (Stomped his run!) 4. Logan Peat (SO close and with such style!)
Is anybody else skeptical about the decision to relieve Brad Jay of his commentating today? He seemed pretty vital with his gnarly voice. Hopefully they can get an energizing voice like Pastrana to step in?
i believe you are thinkin of brad 'monster truck' ewen.
brad j should still be rockin the mc duties today.
brad j is great at being 'the host.', i'm not sayin he knows every lil thing about every lil thing in the industry, but just like any major mainstream sports broadcast, ya need 'a host' to go along with color commentators and analysis peeps. brad j is great at that.
The only releasing joyride gets so much viewing and popularity is because of the amount of hype that comes with it through pinkbike, social media etc. If the Garbanzo DH had as much hype it would be the same amount viewing and popularity. It's a massive shame really as DH seems to be rising rapidly
How many times they replace your Cracked Frame before telling you off ?!
