 No kidding, that guy is just happy to ride, loved listening to him talk about the course. And those shorts! Too bad.

 Wow, the list of big names who didn't qualify is interesting. Anthony Messere Anton Thelander Gee Atherton Kirill Churbanov Makken Haugen Mick Hannah Mike Kinrade Ryan Howard Sam Pilgrim Stevie Smith Yannick Granieri A lot of DJ'ers and racers in there. The only two WC DH'ers in the finals are Binggeli and Bren-dog. Pretty excited for the finals none the less.
  • 10 3
 Atherton, Smith, others aren't there this year or aren't competing. A lot of the invitees chose not to compete or are injured.
  • 9 1
 Yeah, I know. Probably should have clarified in my comment. Normally there are a few more racers in the mix. Nico is riding. Forgot to add him. Sorta surprised that big mountain riders like Kirill and Makken got beat out by guys like Mitch Chubey and Genon. Goes to show that riding skills translate across the spectrum of different disciplines.

 Are there any photos of his loop, so keen on seeing it!
  • 11 0
 Nah it's got to be Aggy all the way

 What happened and how did he not qualify?

 Wouldn't call kirill a big mountain rider really, in his videos he is usually riding dirt jumps and quarrys.
  • 4 0
 yeah...that sucks...hopefully he'll come next year

 sorge is injured
  • 13 0
 And the curse lives on !

 Messere is also not riding. Hurt his wrist i think?...

 Thank god Hopkins stomped that step down. dude laced it. I also cannot believe that Fairclough's gap worked... video games... video games. Graham's line was so friggen sick, including that massive no-hander over the canyon.

 Did Kirill Benderoni even ride qualifiers today? Didn't see him on the list anywhere on the Red Bull site. What happened?
  • 2 0
 captures- watched it live Wink

And I'm not sure about Kirill... never heard any announcement that he dropped in, although I missed half the first runs. Maybe he got injured his first go down?
  • 7 6
 Atherton: The sport as evolved a lot in the last few years. I don't think a rider like GEE could win that kind of event, this said with all respect to that great DH racer, one of the best so far.

 was hoping to see kirill to

 Sorge is it with an injury, rampage curse strikesme aagain
  • 9 0
 You seen the quarry track dan built? Gee can go big, maybe not win the comp because that is based on who backflips the biggest whatever but he would still put a savage run in.

 He decided not to start.
  • 1 0
 Maybe he didn't have a line from the to? I read a few times he spent all his time building the open loop, when exactly did he plan and practice a line in the top half of the course.

 Rampage Qualifying must be transmitted live always!

 F...k yeah you re right !

 Does anybody know if the finals will be replaying after its over? Seems like that's the way red bull usually does it but want to be absolutely certain!!
  • 1 0
 yah the finals were definitely up online afterwards last year, i'd imagine they will do the same thing again.
  • 1 0
 They usually have replays of everything. All the world cups, joyride etc always have a replay up shortly after.
  • 5 0
 It would be awesome to have qualifiers streamed live but I can understand why they don't. Filming and event this big is a huge/expensive undertaking.

 ^ agreed. and i'm sure there will be loads of pictures within a couple hours

 Dear PinkBike. Please put up a link on your page that will have a list of all potential Rampage riders for next year on something like a spreadsheet. In column #1. riders names. #2. will they attend? or the reasons why not. #3. results and details of the riders run that need to qualify. #4. final results and details of what happen in the riders run. etc. Something like that. I understand that not everybody has the time to be reading up on every mountain bike article. But this will help with many of the questions I see online. Thank You.

 YAAAAAAA AGGY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Definitely rooting for him tommorow!!! He's the ultimate big mountain rider!!!!! GO AGGY!!!

 Awesome Brendog got his bike fixed and made it through Smile !!!!!

 So glad to see Aggy up there. He is what free ride means. Would have liked to see Kenny Smith up there too. Both those guys rock!

 Yeah aggy!! It'd be sick to see him win it tomorrow.

 Hell yeah Aggy!

 Only 1 of my top 3 picks made it Come on Garret Beuller Bc Boy to carry the Title.

 Pilgrim would have made it , but he used a DH bike instead of his NS Majesty hardtail.. Razz
  • 7 0
 bummed on Benderoni. Got scared there for a sec when i didnt see Will White on there but then I realized he was pre qualified.
  • 4 0
 Does this not give Genon a guaranteed 2nd place overall with a chance at 1st? It does seem as if FMB is not awarding points according to their "Structure". www.fmbworldtour.com/en/structure/ranking-information.html
  • 3 0
 pilgrim has already been crowned 2013 champion.
  • 2 1
 I know but: Rampage = Diamond Event = 1000 pts 1st place, Genon @ 3628.70 + 1000 = 436.2 pts ahead of Pilgrim @ 4192.50. Even 10th place (573.7) would get him 10 pts over. FMBA needs to go back to school...

 its a score from their best 5 finishes that counts meaning Sam has won

 I want someone who is one of the firt people you think of when you say 'free ride' to win, like aggy or vanderham or possibly zink etc. someone who isn't at all the dirt jump/ slopestyle contests and mainly focuses on free ride. I think the fmb should have more big mountain stuff. Not to take away from rampage, but just to keep the free ride world tour a 'free ride' world tour.

 Oh and I wouldn't mind if cam mccaul won because he truly rides and competed for the fun of it and for taking part.

 What happened to Pilgrim?
  • 1 0
 Why didnt pilgrim pre-qualify? Isit down to the lack of expericance, you would asume the fmb winner would get a spot in the finals.
  • 1 0
 He is not much of a big mountain rider... Pre-qualifying him would make no sense in my opinion, because there are others who deserve it more.
  • 1 0
 Yea I agree hes not a big mountain rider and him not qualifing shows that. So how do they decide who pre-qualifys? People who have won rampage before or other big mountain events?
  • 1 0
 I think it's a mix of things like standings and past results.
  • 1 1
 well apparently Rampage points don't count to the tour overall title.
  • 2 0
 Rampage points count on the overall title since is a diamond event of the fmb tour. Rampage is a very unique event where only the top 12 of the last Rampage and winners from 2008 and 2010 get pre-qualified for finals. The other guys that are invited and have to qualy for finals are from the fmb tour (genon, granieri, pilgrim, etc) or guys known for their big mountain riding hability (brendog, benderoni, nico vink, etc)
  • 1 0
 How could Pilgrim be crowned champ when Genon still stands to earn more points?

 aah got it only top 6 count...
