It does. Jackson looks like a kid, especially standing next to Billy Meaclem. Great to see so much young talent, but makes me realize I'm old, tired, slow and nearly not as much fun now...

Don't worry, the whole judging system has not gone into Kaos...

I agree. Kaos should have won.

2 things observed in these pics; I’d love to see a pic of Jackson with a more impressive whip than that shot of kaos and also is it just because I’m on my phone or are all the pics out of focus ?

Probably just look slightly out of focus because it's shot in dark and the edges get slightly softer and they had to use slightly longer shutter speeds so it gets a bit blurry. Also the lens should be wide open so you dont get shallower depth of field so only a smaller part is in focus.

Sven and the rest of the judges put a lot of emphasis on bringing it back and landing straight, so a single photo doesn't show the full picture.

So all we gotta do for bigger whips is chuck some white pants on!

Next thing you know the industry is going to force crankworx to schedule an E-bike whip off.

As much as we dont like the e stuff the industry will keep forcing it on us like weinstein at a movie casting. Danny MacAskill has even released an edit on the new sc e bike. Fortunately its not as good as his regular stuff.

Pretty sure he’s on a bike with a motor and battery as well.

Battery and motor were foam dummies to save weight but look like an e bike
