fr3er1d3r (Jan 18, 2012 at 19:23)

haha ok i was too excited about rampage to be comprehensible at all. Sorry! The first crash in the video, the saddle gets knocked off. Take a look.

robscott2010 (Jan 18, 2012 at 22:42)

how can you enter for next year?

31

suicidedownhiller (Jan 18, 2012 at 22:50)

You can't enter, it's invite only. And the invite list is already full as far as I know, they're still considering about 5 more riders

30

Protour (Jan 18, 2012 at 23:15)

Will there be any free Red Bulls for tired spectators who drove from Canada?

32

suicidedownhiller (Jan 18, 2012 at 23:37)

There were last year!

Nice!!! Cant wait!
I thought this might be another "SOPA" trick to get our attention.

connor-rix (Jan 18, 2012 at 13:05)

Actual dates have dropped for the 2012 Red Bull Rampage. Pinkbike 2012 prediction: nobody gives a shit if the world is ending as long as Red Bull Rampage is happening.

Hahahaha

scott-townes FL (Jan 18, 2012 at 13:12)

Woooo! Best last year ever! See you all down there!

stinky-deluxe-smith (Jan 18, 2012 at 14:45)

what the titty wank is sopa?

91

swampwolf (Jan 18, 2012 at 15:03)

SOPA = Stop Online Piracy Act. Google it, it's that simple

By the away, "sopa" is the portuguese word for "soup"

That makes sentences like "why sopa is dangerous" quite interesting haha

40

airbornmtnbiker (Jan 18, 2012 at 15:31)

Sopa is the reason wikipedia and tons of other sites are down for the day in protest. its also the reason google is just a black rectangle. go to google and click on the black rectangle and it will tell you about it.

21

konakurt (Jan 18, 2012 at 16:09)

people should stop bitching and "wtf is sopa". They don't realize that if this bill gets passed they wont be able to view anything on pinkbike anymore... or any other site for that matter.

32

stinky-deluxe-smith (Jan 18, 2012 at 16:17)

so what are they trying to do? cause i like pinkbike

and unfortunatly i googled it but it was all written in buisness and im simple :/

20

thrice (Jan 18, 2012 at 16:44)

click on the pinkbike logo, it will take you to a video about it

13

shishka (Jan 18, 2012 at 21:34)

Help!!!!! sopa sent its pirates to my hood and they stole my garbage and raped my computer!

10

conv3rt (Jan 18, 2012 at 21:35)

I like soup

10

westsyderider (Jan 18, 2012 at 22:20)

soup can be dangerous if it is hot and splshes all over your elbows, and sopa is a bill in the american legislation trying to get passed but like 6 billion people in the world are against it and i feel it has 0.342 chance to pass. but anywho it lets us canadians take a crack at the no good over protective americans who wanna control the whole world so they start with the internet

haha all in good fun my fellow american friends. But in all seriousness sopa and pipa need to be stopped. its almost as scary as freaking red bull rampage!!!

stinky-deluxe-smith (Jan 19, 2012 at 9:57)

"I'm gunna front flip the Oakley sender at rampage this year"
to quote anthony messere from facebook.

bigwavedave (Sep 4, 2012 at 12:33)

What the crap?? . . they're actually charging for the event this year? I've been going to this event since 2005 and they've never charged to see the event. What now, do you get for the price of admission, that you didn't get before?

30

fantaman (Jan 18, 2012 at 12:45)

Rampage will always get every one stoked,the most spectaculair big mountain contest on the planet.

20

Sir-Dirty-BIker (Jan 18, 2012 at 14:02)

BOOOM YEAAAAH!! when ever your feeling down, PinkBike always uploads some news that brings a huge smile to your face

40

surfct FL (Jan 18, 2012 at 15:26)

20

ExiTwelve (Jan 18, 2012 at 12:53)

HELL YAH!!! So pumped for this! I have a premonition that this years is going to be EPIC!

if you knew grammar, you'd know how to spell "calendAr"

21

ryanme (Jan 18, 2012 at 12:43)

some crazy shit will be going down! my bet for cam zink to take a podium spot!

60

FullTiltBoogie (Jan 18, 2012 at 13:09)

Zink is going to flip some huge drop. Podium for sure.

80

ButtonPusher (Jan 18, 2012 at 13:41)

he can pull out the big tricks without a doubt..! but there's a few cats that can shred better overall lines (way more tech) than him... looking back at 2010, the rest of Zink's line aside from the 360 drop wasn't that tech/challenging compared to some other riders lines...
watch for Doerfling, Aggy, and Vanderham in particular...

71

bigburd (Jan 18, 2012 at 13:45)

If Gee would throw 1 or 2 tricks in his runs I think he could win.

30

iesubach (Jan 18, 2012 at 14:01)

I reckon the claws gonna shred! I reckon he deserved better than third with his 2010 run, and he'd just come out of a broken neck i think, so I reckon he'll be one to watch!

30

ButtonPusher (Jan 18, 2012 at 14:09)

Claw's run was better than 3rd I'd agree... No one was as fast as Gee on that mountain, he must have gotten huge points in fluidity...

50

iesubach (Jan 18, 2012 at 14:15)

Gee's was fast and fluid, but personally I don't think it deserved second, just think that if we're marking on speed may as well go the the wc's and hold up number cards. I think the claw has the best style out there, and he always thinks outside the box, and puts some huge lines together!

20

ButtonPusher (Jan 18, 2012 at 15:17)

i think Claw would've gotten 2nd if it hadn't been for that large gap to 1/4 that Gee landed to finish his run...

40

timmyelle (Jan 18, 2012 at 18:02)

youre right, Gee was the only one to land that gap, Romo tried and crashed. That jump still blows my mind. HUGE

10

bigburd (Jan 19, 2012 at 1:45)

Yeah , to me that was probably one of the best bit of bike handling skills I have ever seen , I mean look at the two guys who crashed on it , both paid to ride off cliffs for a living and both failed

10

Dave48 (Jan 19, 2012 at 8:10)

Three to crash on it, Romo, Doerfling and T Mc Caul, that's one of the reason of his second place i think.

10

timmyelle (Jan 19, 2012 at 11:58)

for sure. just nuts. I also like the clip of him flying of "peatys plunge" @ Windham. That was equally as impressive. The speed he hit that at....... Insane. I think Gee could own the big mtn scene if he ever decided to focus on that discipline.

20

randybadger (Jan 20, 2012 at 5:47)

I personally was surprised Lacondeguy didn't place for me he had more going on in his run than most other riders.
Aside from the obvious huge sender trick (which was amazing) I didn't see much else in Zinks runs (prepare for neg props

)

20

bigburd (Jan 20, 2012 at 5:57)

Nah I agree with ya Badger , granted his 360 was nuts but the rest of his run was ' just getting down the hill ' . No doubt he will have some insane step down to back flip this time tho going by his latest edit

20

mamo5 (Jan 18, 2012 at 13:45)

Cant wait to head down again.

20

koertjee (Jan 18, 2012 at 13:49)

zink flipping the canyon gap

20

dirtman04 (Jan 18, 2012 at 14:40)

still the biggest 360 in mtb history imo

21

Schy (Jan 18, 2012 at 17:24)

Its out in the open, just show up and you can watch! Pretty cool stuff i live 30 min away! STOKED!

20

ButtonPusher (Jan 18, 2012 at 22:37)

10

AAAustin (Jan 18, 2012 at 20:22)

10

cougar797 (Jan 18, 2012 at 13:15)

So you could give directions to the site then. Want to make a trip this spring / summer

11

alexshirley (Jan 18, 2012 at 13:20)

I also live in the area so if anyone has questions about where to ride just message me.

11

davio615xx (Jan 18, 2012 at 14:02)

Can anyone show up to watch?

31

alexshirley (Jan 18, 2012 at 16:07)

last year you had to get a ticket but usually they just let you in or you could just go in a different way.

51

yeahbro (Jan 18, 2012 at 17:08)

Red bull is paying a shit load to make this happen the least you could do was buy a cheap ticket to show some thanks.

31

alexshirley (Jan 18, 2012 at 20:23)

the tickets are free anyway they only use them to monitor how many people attended.

20

bigwavedave (Sep 4, 2012 at 12:37)

Tickets aren't free. They're $15. I've been going to this event since 2005 and this is the first time they've charged for admission. You walk or bike in for 4 miles and sit or stand in the dirt in the middle of the desert. There is some killer freeriding to see if you're willing to do this, but charge people $15 when they haven't before and are offering nothing new?? Every company pays a crapload of money to put on an event like this and they've been doing it for years as it's a marketing campaign. To suddenly start charging for tickets is super lame. Crankworx doesn't do it.

20

nouser (Jan 18, 2012 at 13:02)

glad for it to be back!

10

dydanz (Jan 18, 2012 at 13:45)

10

stu2523 (Jan 19, 2012 at 9:41)

ANYONE KNOW IF MR ATHERTON WILL BE RIDING DUE TO BIKE CHANGE?

10

webbe (Jan 19, 2012 at 13:43)

Why would that affect whether or not he rides? He's still sponsored by Red Bull, and GT aren't outlawed from the competition, Tmac rode a GT in it last year. If he's riding a GT for a full world cup season beforehand, I'm sure he'll be ready to shred Rampage on that same bike.

10

stu2523 (Jan 22, 2012 at 11:23)

nice

danyul (Jan 19, 2012 at 16:41)
