The Faces of Red Bull Rampage 2016
@remymetailler: thank you for the reply, and for not writing, as you named it, something cool, which audience is fed up with.
Honest opinions of riders is what we need, either we agree with them or not. I still remember that Wil Whites interview from 2014's Rampage, which opened my eyes on what's actually going on behind the scenes, aside from all the positive stuff that media show us.

@bigburd: I'm sure judges have certain solution for that case. Like, if rider does or does not finish, his score gets multiplied by a number which is greater or lesser than 1, making it impossible for DNF run to stand higher.
@rifu: While reading, I thought he mentioned a rule book in the context of racing, not Rampage itself. As far as I remember, DNF runs were always given a score, how can judges constantly violate a rule?
And, talking about Aggy, I totally agree with you guys. I didn't mean, that Remy called Aggy out, but emphasizing final result of a man, who's seriously injured, doesn't seem appropriate to me.

Not quite sure that Remy should've said that "0 for DNF" thing. I mean, Rampage has nothing to do with true race rules, since it is more about slopestyle, where each and every trick is rewarded with certain amount of points - I know zero 4x racers who came to downhill and said something like "you guys should start at 4 at a time!". Also, mentioning Aggy made him sound like a douche (yes, I'm biased).

Renthal's new 35mm Bars and Stems - Review
Since this turns out to be yet another whine thread, I'm feeling free to tell my story. Two years ago I was searching for wide bars for my reign, an I bought a cool piece of alloy made by syncros. All parameters were fitting me perfectly, but damn me if I was aware of new stem and bars standard back then. I actually had to get new part, and since then I'm happy with my 31.8 fatbar. "35mm. Being useless and annoying people since 2014".

Mavic Crossmax XL Pro Limited Wheels - Review
Always thought that this yellow finish with unreadable stickers is the same sort of thing as enve's decals. Why would anyone buy deemax ultimates if they were plain black? :)

Results - Red Bull Rampage 2015
Wonder who of the judges crew hates Rheeder personally: his run was super smooth, tricks were done perfectly, everything was done with style. Not that I say this run was enough to win, but 81... And then Tommy G gets 91 with awesome, but definitely not 10-points-better run. Conspiracy as it is.
