 in my opinion this years course was better than anytime. the riders had to push their limits to compete in this kinda event. i was stoked too see that many tricks on those rad to the boner jumps and drops.and i think those top guns like semenuk, darren, yannik, martin and others crashed and got injured because they pushed their limits way beyond their ability. and i think after this event we will see some bangers tricks in red bull rampage. sorry for bad english.

 looks like this course was focused on the gnarly aspect....I like it, but damn a lot of good riders going down. I think highland park was the best this year, it was nice and long, good variety of stunts to hit, and it wasn't too gnarly more like focused on having a good trick comp. Just my two cents Wink

 I liked this course more than any other years in the past because of its gnar factor. It made watching it a lot more entertaining. Those that didn't fall, slayed, because it looks near impossible to ride that course and not shred it hard.

 Wow, congrats to Cam on both the win and being a mountain biker who give an intelligent speech. It almost sounds like he (gasp) actually went to school. So many "what ifs" in this comp, but in the end he laid down a tidy run and deserved the win.

 The videos above are the official Crankworx videos. My video was sponsored by Rockstar and was designed to focus on Rockstar athletes at the event. Unfortunately the powers that be did not like the fact a Rockstar sponsored video become the main video for an event sponsored by another energy drink company and I can understand that. I did however give monster multiple opportunities to get involved. They were not interested. Thanks to Rockstar for supporting me bringing you into the festival the way i see it.

 Yea Cam Zink! After overcoming all those injuries he deserves it. Casey Groves works hard and is be coming very savy, he is going to have some staying power in this game. Mike competing on a hardtail is sick, that says alot about his prowess.

 I was kind of dissapointed in this years slopestyle course, and what ended up happening. So many talented riders crashed, and they would have brought new things to the table that no one else was doing. I feel like the course designers (is it john cowan still?) should consider how many people crashed this year and build a more suitable course next year, and there were really only 2-3 obstacles that really sketched riders out, but it made the difference. I think that zink and montgomery deserved their spots, but some of the younger guys werent doing anything new, or expanding the horizons of the sport. In past years, this event has really pushed riders to push their limits, and I felt like this one had to many crashes to let them do that.
TL;DR Course was bad, wish better athletes made it into the finals so they could throw down.

 well this is mountain bikings.. injuries will happen sometimes. but i do agree, this course was a bit sketch(at the lack of a better word) at some points.
  • 11 0
 people still threw down. just because it wasn't the guys you thought that should have won, the winners still deserved it and didn't make the course bad. to say this years didn't push people to their limits is kind of a dumb statement seeing how tail whips/360s were done off a 20ft drop, flip whips among other tech tricks done and not to forget the massive front flip. i don't know about you but a new trick is just as impressive as someone doing a not-so-new maneuver on a huge feature. remember this is mtb, not bmx. the bigger the bikes leave less room for intense progression.

 i felt that deuck/mcgarry didnt really deserve their spots because they kept there scores from their first run, which were high because the judges were throwing around points right at the beginning.
  • 1 0
 greg's first run was better than any of mcgarry's runs for sure but thats just how these things play out.
  • 1 0
 ^ exactly, the guys that crashed did so because they were pushing harder and faster, but there IS a limit to how far you can go on these courses without pushing too far, so the guys who scored well deserved it IMHO. Good to see McGazza up there with them this year. People will crash, that's how they learn Smile

 "Lacondeguy was a pussy and wasn't happy with the course and hung out in the bar and watched....he said it didn't have big enough jumps?!?!? It was a man's course and he chickened out..." as quoted from the whistler thread.

 the huge monster drop in my opinion was a waste of time they couldn't do anything off it except for 3's and tail-whip's
