Its not a Vanderham whip without a Rocky Mountain!!!

adderhead (Jan 17, 2011 at 1:18)

Vanderham has the most epic and iconic whips I have ever seen. All I can think of are the days when he rode his bright RMX

Jamie-K (Jan 17, 2011 at 11:54)

Awh man! I'd love that. To just have all the tools, parts and music and sit inside for a day in a shed and build up a bike. Can you imagine the feeling you'd get after? Big Grin

Got to love his style, also!

Mr. Vanderham - Its nice to see you back!

nickTHEBEARcardone (May 2, 2012 at 4:26)

kyddie (Jan 17, 2011 at 11:35)

YES MAN! So happy to see Vanderham back on RM. Always been such an iconic rider.

Looking forward to see him in some of the coming seasons comps and films

Why is there no flowing freeride in Australia? It's all epic DH. Frown

Dont get me wrong I love the DH but some gnar runs with big senders wouldn't hurt.

bunkey (Jan 17, 2011 at 22:21)

Go build man. There never will be until someone gets the ball rolling...
