Seems like a lot of dedication to the brand, you don't necessarily find that in alot of people who are even paid by the company to maintain that dedication. I think any respectable company should be absolutely ecstatic to have someone on board who truly believes in what they're preaching. Not to mention everything I've seen of Ian blows me away in ability to huck massive little-bike tricks on a larger scale. His massive dumped 360's on the Faith I still maintain to be one of the most stylish and downright sick things I've seen in the sport recently. Definitely had me getting pretty interested the bike, and I'm usually pretty impermeable to product advertising (or at least they would have me believe).

I won't usually go out of the way and try to hype something I'm not fully onboard with or stoked on, but Giant, do yourself a favour and hook this kid up, before someone else does!! Good luck Ian.

he's good. really good. i remember watching him in a sunpeaks edit with dylan sherrards and afterwards trying to find his sponsors only to find out he didnt have any yet... or atleast i couldnt find any. needless to say i was pretty baffled. its about damn time someone got him a sponsor. definitely has me looking into a reign sx. keep up the good work Ian your killin it dawg.

When i saw that frontflip with a double crown i was like WTF???!!!! Amazing,
This is the kind of style i want to have on a bike and kind of what ive dreamt of since i started riding bikes.

One of my favorite riders now for sure!

ChineseAlan (Nov 3, 2011 at 17:43)

GIANT, I WILL HATE YOU FOREVER IF YOU DONT SPONSOR IAN!!! DO IT GIANT OR YOUL'L REGRET IT!!!

batesy44 (Nov 3, 2011 at 13:17)

sounds like he is in it for the wrong reasons! :L

spiderweb95060 (Nov 3, 2011 at 13:39)

Agreed, but I guess if someone can make a living doing what they love, go for it. There is a fine line though between selling out and making a living. Either way, he'll probably go places riding like that.

Dirt-Jumper-Vlasic (Nov 4, 2011 at 6:17)

He only said that because he is serious why else would you call out Giant to sponsor you? Either way you look at it he is going to make money off his riding and he loves it regardless if he was joking about it or not.. And did he double truck at 1:33 ?

spiderweb95060 (Nov 5, 2011 at 20:15)

More power to him. And yes, you saw that right...a double bar spin 3. Makes me proud of my Giant Reign.

gavlaa (Nov 1, 2011 at 8:07)

There are many people with delusions of being pro who are actually pretty rubbish- but this dude is the real deal- balls, style, skill- He'll be on a team next season for sure. Hope Giant listens to him as he'll have his followers if he keeps rippin like this...

rolto1822 (Nov 3, 2011 at 1:19)

faved not only because the video was awesome, but because this dude deserves the recognition that he deserves. The recognition that a sponsorship by such a big name as Giant.
I think this video was the first i've seen with such a high level of riding in it that doesn't have spools of sponsors in the intro and outro... it needs them.

voltagerider Plus (Oct 31, 2011 at 20:48)
