This is from the first day of practice at the 2011 Bearclaw Invitational. At the end of the day guys were taking turns sessioning the last jump and Brandon tried a few different things, but mostly ended up doing a bunch of whips, each one a little crazier than the last. I started off running sequences, but after a while I gave up on burning through memory cards and just started shooting singles. This is the best sequence I got, and probably one of the better whips as well. Serious height and whipped around almost backwards, Claw definitely knows how to build a jump!
I don't usually shoot sequences, it's definitely easier to just shoot a single, or may a 2 or 3 shot sequence. Why you might ask? Sequences are cool, isn't that why cameras are made to shoot 11 frames a second? But the reality of it is a sequence like this normally won't get used for much, and it takes more time to download, and more space on the hard drive. But now that's all about to change, so I'm going to have to change the way I shoot. Sequence Saturday, a regular thing perhaps...?

Brandon thought about it for a minute then said, "i want to hang out with god" ST.peter looked at the throne and introduced him to god.
Brandon looked at god and said "Hey, arnt you the inventor of women?" God said "Oh yes". "well" said Brandon, "professional to professional, you have some major design flaws in your invention"
"Theres too much inconsistency in the front end suspension"
"It chatters constantly at high speeds"
"Most of the rear ends are too soft and wobble too much"
"The maintanance costs are outrageous"
"Hmmm you have some good points there" he replied. "Hold on" he then said. He went over to his celectical computer, typed in a few words and waited for the results. The computer printed out a peice of paper and god read it.
God replied "Well, it may be true that my invention is flawwed, But according to these numbers and figures, more men are riding my invention than yours"
"f*ck.....lemme check"

Air India has filed a lawsuit against FMB world tour champion Brandon Semenuk claiming that eight flights "were cancelled after 12 pilots reported sick this morning."
Although the flight cancellations may not affect many people on Pinkbike.com, research shows that the cancellations were a direct result of Brendan Semenuk being too sick in the air.
Simply put, there can only be a certain amount of sickness in the sky at one given time and Semenuk has drained the world sickness supply.
Semenuk apologized for his actions claiming that he "was only doing his job".
A police report also indicated that Brendan Semenuk was charged with unauthorized flight in Canadian Airspace, and will fully prosecuted by the law's of gravity, when he feels like coming down. Mid-flight, Semenuk pleaded guilty for his actions with a humongous whip.

"Simply put, there can only be a certain amount of sickness in the sky at one given time and Semenuk has drained the world sickness supply."
How is there any sickness left for those pilots then?
Surely all the pilots would be healthy?

There are some things money can't buy. For everything else, there's MasterCard???
I would love you long time

P.s i envy anyone with a very large DSLR for the fact that they can get an opportunity to take shots like this.
There are some things money can't buy. For everything else, there's MasterCard???
I also love the way his shirt flapps in the wind and with the momentum of the whip, covered in dirt from past, failed attempts. Seems to sum up how mountain biking works for many of us... "If i don't succeed, try again, and this time GO BIGGER!"
so i must send a link to a picture to describe it!

And life was nothing but an awful song
But now I know the meaning of true love
I'm leaning on the everlasting arms
If I can see it, then I can do it
If I just believe it, there's nothing to it
[Chorus:]
I believe I can fly
I believe I can touch the sky
I think about it every night and day
Spread my wings and fly away
I believe I can soar
I see me running through that open door
I believe I can fly
I believe I can fly
I believe I can fly
See I was on the verge of breaking down
Sometimes silence can seem so loud
There are miracles in life I must achieve
But first I know it starts inside of me, oh
If I can see it, then I can be it
If I just believe it, there's nothing to it
[Chorus]
Hey, cause I believe in me, oh
If I can see it, then I can be it
If I just believe it, there's nothing to it
[Chorus]
Hey, if I just spread my wings
I can fly
I can fly
I can fly, hey
If I just spread my wings
I can fly
Fly-eye-eye
