Dopest underdog rider in my eyes. You sir are my favorite rider! So much grind and progression out of this guy. GO HAMMM ROGGY!!!!! Kill it in 16 yea!? Visorless is the way to go!! f*ck normal people.
So it's a sport that celebrates creativity and individuality, and this guy goes out there and risks his life for the love of it, and in doing so - AS AN INDIVIDUAL - feels like being visor less helps his vision, and all you sheeple get your panties in a bunch because his helmet is different and doesn't look like you want it to. And the when you are called on it you fall back on " I just don't like his style". You are all marketing advertisers wet dreams, because you pretend to be an individual, but buy into all the shit they sell you. Thanks for being a progressive rider rogatkin, I appreciate the entertainment you bring to this sport.
The most underrated rider out there thi season...damned I was after putting him down for first. Time and time again after he put down the sickest tricks, got the whole crowd roaring, the announcers screaming, throwing down insane technical runs, doing stuff nobody else is even trying on the courses, and yet still at landing only seconds and thirds at the big events. I can't believe how underscored this guy was.
@onemanarmy everyone knows how dope he is, except for the judges. Maybe underrated isn't the best word... what's a word that describes laying down next level runs with tricks that no one else can do, and yet he doesn't get the placing he deserves???
@patrickv155 I'm going with 'Underbandwagoned'... It does seem the judges favourite always score higher, and I don't think Rogatkin should be marked down for his lack of visor either, its his own style!
I'm gonna side with the Rogatkin fans. His critics say he's not as fluid or dialed as Semenuk or Rheeder. I don't know how he could be with the nature of some of his tricks. I feel like the other guys runs are so fluid because it's just a variation of the same run over and over. Rogatkin just sets off and goes all out to the end. It's nice to see someone pulling next level tricks
man, inf Rogatkin throw 1 or 2 banger tricks,it doens mean,that he must win. Flip bar from boner and cork7 from step-down is way more harder,than Rogatkin tricks. I know, that all Nicholai's tricks are world first,cause he added nofoot to every f*cking trick. Nad judges also see this shit.
I think he's insane regardless of his peak choice (although I'm not a fan) I think he's downscored a lot of the time due to scruffy landings and accuracy in his riding, which is only natural for the way he is pushing the new wild tricks. So I can understand, but I'd score the smooth as butter runs higher too.
@hyperx it is really common for feet to hover when in the air, it just happens. Watch some DJ vids and look closely. Rogatkin though.... kills it so hard
@jakecallcut lol, if u see how true mtb pro riders do tricks, u ve seen,that one foot barely slide from pedal.But both feet fly nearly center of seat tube even on simple 360 bar?Lol.
Not bad for a Sophomore! It was awesome to see Nicholi get more consistent in comp runs at the big events this year. This kid is going to win everything out there eventually, only a matter of time. Really like to watch this dude innovate.
You guys needed to put the Cashroll on big bike clip. But anyways this guy is my favorite rider. That barspin cashroll at the end was hella crazy!!!! Cant wait to see you again next season at Colorado Freeride Festival!
that crash at rampage..bigest respect to Nicholi for gettin back on his bike,so he could finish the run..i also miss in the video his cashroll dh bike attemp off the drop, even when he crashed, that was siick !
Dude is so badass for getting back up after falling off a cliff and finishing his rampage run like he never even crashed. big giant monkey nuts on that man
So much grind and progression out of this guy.
GO HAMMM ROGGY!!!!!
Kill it in 16 yea!?
Visorless is the way to go!! f*ck normal people.
