Bas van Steenbergen has just received an invitation to Rampage and will be headed down to Virgin, Utah to start building. Graham Agassiz has also confirmed that despite
breaking his scapula in the Official Whip-Off World Championships presented by Spank at Crankworx Whistler in late August, he has been given the green light to compete.

Hell Kurt Sorge, the rampage king, shattered his tibial plateau riding the Bearclaw invitational, which is relatively small compared to this stuff.
Just don’t think Reece has the same level of following as these guys. Which blows.
So... Andrew was 11th last year, so he didn’t make the cut to be automatically invited back.
Thanks, that makes sense
Seriously if I was Aggy, I'd sit this one out...there's no way that scapula break is 100%. One crash, even in practice and he's done. It's just not worth it.
The reason for this are continued problems with one of his ankles. He said he was not satisfied with his result last year, and when he participates at rampage, he wants to win. Because of his injury, he was not able to ride as much as he would have wished, and he does not see a chance to compete as his best because of it.
Gimme a break
Macfarlane, doerfling. I'm not surprised. James backed out last year (for all the best reasons and we haven't seen much in the way of edits) and all connor has done is crashed his brains out for 3 years in a row. Both are a few of my favorite riders too.
Also, I want a New Zealander in there!
#McGazzaForever
maybe 4 lines built and riders choose which lines to take and/or mix. just sayin'
I'll be sad if he's not there at least to support Carson Storch again, after they built their sick line together the last couple years.
Here's the official retirement announcement video and look back on The Claw's career:
