NO IT WON'T! IT'LL BE POPULAR FOREVERRRR!!!

Oh and this is the first short clip of "Not Bad" that I actually enjoyed. Slo-mo on dirt jumping is really fun to watch plus Semenuk is on another level in regards to style/butter landings... and apparently technical tricks and massive cliff drops/lines as well.

sask250...look at the teaser video page...sorry to break it to u, but I did it fist

michaelmarsh FL (Jul 19, 2013 at 20:00)

If they keep drawing this out, there are two possibilities. 1) We anticipate it so much the whole thing is a disappointment, or 2) We get bored and don't care. Heh, who am I kidding. Just hurry up already, I wanna watch it!

gouty (Jul 19, 2013 at 15:24)

How are they drawing it out? I've seen 2 videos. And it comes out in less than 2 weeks. Or am I missing a few videos..

burnbern (Jul 19, 2013 at 15:45)

There might have only been two videos so far, but I there have been quite a few #notbad images...

jervis FL (Jul 19, 2013 at 16:55)

The trailer, this and an epic slow mo of Brook McDonald!

He's like an early Terje Haakonsen of bikes. He could win almost any competition he enters but is taking time to ride for the love and style of it.

phatone17 (Jul 19, 2013 at 14:32)

Boy, he really accelerated on that landing......sheesh

ridethree (Jul 19, 2013 at 15:19)

Brandon is definately one of the most fun guys to watch riding. He is so loose but so safe and controlled at the same time. And all his tricks are always precise and fully stretched or clicked or whatever.

freerideq (Jul 20, 2013 at 23:18)

dialed bro thats semenuk

luke-smith (Jul 19, 2013 at 17:11)

can you please slow it down a bit?

robmarini-jet (Jul 20, 2013 at 8:23)

Yeah, 1 billion fps would be nice!!!

ultralord (Jul 20, 2013 at 10:40)

and now show us Söderström to get really excited.. oh no its a Trek movie

Kieran-Young (Jul 19, 2013 at 14:10)

Getting fed up of these trailers. Come on Anthill, we'd like more than one clip, is that too much to ask?

donalddouche (Jul 19, 2013 at 14:44)

One slow mo of a 3-table passes for frontpage these days? LOL.

waterfall99 (Jul 19, 2013 at 14:44)

I think its good that they aren't revealing too much. Usually they spoil too much of the film.

TheCanuck (Jul 19, 2013 at 14:48)

I think they are what you would call a "teaser"

miff (Jul 19, 2013 at 14:50)

@Kieran - Then you'd be complaining that they showed too much when the full thing hits. They're teasers for a reason, deal with it.

Kieran-Young (Jul 20, 2013 at 2:35)

I doubt I'd complain, maybe two clips would be good? It looked ridiculous for the Brook Macdonald ad, it was him railing a berm in slow motion, nothing exciting, just a berm. It would just be better than 1 clip that's all, I'm not the type of guy to complain that a trailer ''has too much in it'' either.

malathion (Jul 19, 2013 at 16:37)

ha ha ! that clip of Bruce at the end. soooo funny. Semenuk, f88ing balls out rad as usual

Enduro07 (Jul 19, 2013 at 16:37)

ohhhh use the cranks in the air not just the pedals maybe ill try that some day.....NOT!!

JJ-The-Scott (Jul 20, 2013 at 2:27)

Okay so I have seen #notbad (went to the UK premier a couple days ago) and it is unreal and it shows you that brandon is once again on top of the sport! Sensational everybody needs to go and buy it!

Not bad at all

anticlimax-alex (Jul 22, 2013 at 12:40)

I commented on something a month or two ago asking why semenuk hadn't been in any of the big freeride events at the start of the year... I see now...

HisShadow (Jul 19, 2013 at 14:15)

hmmm .. not bad ..

Kezzerr (Jul 19, 2013 at 19:51)

Don't know if i'm more keen for #Notad or Arrival!!!

vw4ever (Jul 20, 2013 at 5:10)

Didn't think he was ever going to come back down!!! Entering orbit, 3,2,1.....

Sshredder (Jul 20, 2013 at 10:52)

Yeah I got style. We all do in our own way. Was hoping this was a vid. Its another bloody commercial.

Iain-Da-Weein (Jul 21, 2013 at 6:39)

The mindset of Bruce Lee and style of Brandon Semenuk... What a killer combo!

MethodMan31 (Jul 21, 2013 at 13:03)

true!

Shreedziz (Jul 19, 2013 at 20:08)

Soderstrom would be more stylish, and made a 3 invert

twozerosix (Jul 19, 2013 at 15:00)

Dude went to college. Oh and invented a fighting style. AND got with the white women. Semenuk should be honored.

Brandon Semenuk has not created a personality, he is the robot. You can't fake that. #PrettyBad

miff (Jul 19, 2013 at 14:55)

I think the poor kid is just shy. Some people just don't do as well with a camera and mic in there face, whether they're shy or just ineloquent speakers. Sam Hill comes to mind, but always ends up saying hilarious stuff so it's fine. CG is probably the best. He has to commentate WC's when he retires for sure

BiNARYBiKE FL (Jul 19, 2013 at 15:14)

Am I sensing a bit of jealousy, or are you just living up to your username? Sure. He's no Cam McCaul in front of the camera. But unless you know him personally, you're probably not in much of a position to judge his personality. Ultimately, we all know who he is because of how he rides. But we don't know him and he doesn't owe us anything. Far as I can tell, he's a serious, soft-spoken guy who loves what he does and has a relentless drive to be the best, and I bet he would do the same thing whether we're all watching or not.

gouty (Jul 19, 2013 at 15:27)

Why does he gotta be a good talker. His riding is all that matters.
