 Thank god for videos, I'm not much of a rheeder.

 Tippie, is that you?

 I think I have Just The Tip for you to become a better rheeder
  • 27 2
 no i think it's that guy
  • 10 7
 a picture says 1000 words.. so this video is 7 min 30 sec, which is 450 seconds, and the video is probably shot in 60 frames per second. which works out too 27000 individual frames of video or a "picture", so if we multiply 27000 x 1000 = 27,000,000

you're deffently a reheeder!

 @t3hrealmccoy It might of been shot at 60fps, but the final video i watched was uploaded in 24fps. (450 x 24) x 1000 = 10,800,000. You clearly over estimate my rheeding abilities :p

 Every interview I see of Brandon I always get the impression that he is genuinely a very humble person. Awesome Video by the way.

 I disagree. Dropping the f bomb like that in front on millions of kids seems pretty unprofessional and immature to me. He is supposed to be a role model. Nice riding though.

 I don't think he did that on purpose. He seemed pretty stoked to get the win and shit can slip out when your at a loss for words. Congrats Brandon!

 Revelant username, MassiveH8er. I like the mix of personalities that both slopestyle and WC has right now– having people like Ratboy/Andreu/etc who are complete animals AND Semenuk/Sam Hill/etc who are soft-spoken means there's someone for everyone to cheer for. Love the sport, love the athletes, and to each their own! Congrats, Brandon!

 Aiden, do you bash on Gee for not smiling? That's just how he is.
  • 13 0
 I think he let the F bomb fly just out of pure relief of not falling on the last jump. which is what he was talking about when he swore. Over the past couple years on either his first or second run he has fallen. As an example: last year he fell on the last jump on his first run, then he landed it on his second run but still wasn't a clean landing. Then right after that Martin Soderstrom was chasing his score, with an insane run I might add, and then fell on the last jump and broke his leg. To make it down the hill with a perfect run and then not fall at all on the last jump has to have been such a relief for him after all of the trouble he has had and seen on the last jump. I totally understand him swearing. Its one swear word. honestly, who gives a shit?

 Actually, if this is your first day on pinkbike, you'd know tons of people bash Gee for not smiling. so, yes. lol

 I personally know Brandon and he is anything but miserable. Shut up about how he acts.

 alright brown noser
  • 28 2
 Watched reeders run and thought, there is no way brandons run was better than that, typical shitty biased judging. Then I watched Semenuks run and, HOLY SHIT
  • 23 1
 ou yeah... he looks so excited, he even smiled a bit in the end!!
  • 18 3
 I'm sick of all this comments, like: "Is that Brandon Semenuk's happiest face?"...
That's Brandon, accept it or not, but leave your comments in your brain!

 It's a pretty innocuous comment compared to some of the stuff posted on pb. Ironic that this would be the one to complain about. lol

 Semenuk is the Shawn White of mountain biking.
  • 1 1
 Semenuk is not scared of any other rider. He is the Mark McMorris of mountain biking if anything.
  • 14 1
 That 720 at the end was really nicely dialled
  • 2 1
 I think it's much a rodeo 360 than a cork 720!Right?
  • 2 1
 Close. It's actually a 360 backflip.

 HOLY SHIT I love this sport Smile Smile

 Highest level of riding ever I can't wait for next year

 Andreu is one of my favorite riders and I love the fest series, but how is he going to hate on fmb slopestyle like this? This isn't just another dirt jump comp, this is SLOPESTYLE, huge jumps and a variety of features which are being tricked to an insane level. Mad respect for these guys, +when Zink says he's nervous, you know shit is scary as hell.
  • 3 4
 because its still a circus compared to what andreu likes
  • 2 2
 because Joyride and Rampage are the only events on the whole fmb tour that are really gnarly. Besides that he kinda hates judges.
  • 8 0
 Andreu's interview in Dirt recently did kind of read like sour grapes. I mean if it's not your thing that's entirely OK, but the last thing the sport needs to get into is more of this 'That's not real mountain biking' bullshit. The whole FEST thing for example is producing some quality riding and awesome vision but I kind of cringe when they rattle on with that 'Just a bunch of friends riding like it's supposed to be...' Bro crap. Particularly when all of those events are sponsored up the wazoo. Which is NOT a comment on sponsorship (which makes a lot of this stuff possible) just spare me the elitist 'everyman keeping it real' speech.

 If only Rogatkin held his run down! Banger after banger.

 I've had a mountain bike crush on Logan Peat ever since watching him get sick all the time on Life Behind Bars. It's great seeing him rise up in the contests this year. It's also rad how the Crankworx announcers always refer to his screen time with Semenuk on "Barred For Life" ...wrong show a*sholes.
  • 5 0
 So the joyride live stream finished, then I watched semenuks run like 20 times, and then just waited for this video
  • 2 1
 For christ sake why does everyone keep thinking that Semenuk's last trick off the whale tale is a cork 720 just because the announcer incorrectly stated it to be. It's clearly a 360 backflip. I know they can sometimes be easy to distinguish due to the nature of the rotation, but in this case he is completely inverted completing a 360 degree rotation on two axis' at the same time.

 I just can't make sense of this. It's absolute nonsense what these guys can do. I need to go get my physics textbook. So impossible! 1 foot can off a flat drop?! corked 720s mid-run?! Both Rheeder's and Semenuk's runs made my heart stop. Messere and Peat's runs were solid but the Rheeder and Semenuk are just on another level. I need to turn my computer off and go ride a bike.
