That is wicked fast guys- I just drove 5 hours home and BAM- its all here, done with mad steeze. Ian Hylands is the Twitter King!

And photo king as well - I have NEVER seen shots of that venue look like they do in his shots. Wow!!! Throw a dart at any of those for a POD. Awesome weekend, all!!!

nah, people just associate kona with freeride and beginnners, but they are well built and everyone used to want one whe they were younger.

It was truly an epic scene. I think we saw the birth of a new World Cup venue after hearing all of the pros talking about the course...

volcanoes affecting sea otter/ air travel! haha. that and port angeles is an awesome place to ride some bikes downhill.

WAKIdesigns (Apr 26, 2010 at 1:39)

Demn lazy Icelanders not maintaining the volcanoes properly so they explode! Thy'tyk'R'fliiight!

In Neko's photo caption it says he took 6th place. There is also a picture of him on the podium in what looks to be the sixth spot. But the official results say he took 9th. Anybody know whats up with that?

karl-burkat FL (Apr 26, 2010 at 9:06)

He was 9th.

choreducker (Apr 26, 2010 at 10:12)

The pro men beside the podium are randomly placed. When they walked up there, they stood wherever they wanted around the podium.

ChadLando (Apr 26, 2010 at 10:56)

Ok, that's what i thought. Still a great result for Neko! I can't wait to see how he does on the world cup circuit this year. Go TWR!

Stayonyourbike29 (Apr 26, 2010 at 18:47)

Finnaly a photo of neko, those other dudes are just buying there time, neko is going to spank them around full-circle, yaga dem boie, red-stipe!

ryann FL (Apr 26, 2010 at 16:20)

Remi Gauvin...remember that name.

radek Mod (Apr 26, 2010 at 9:28)

The noisemaker photo is awesome. I had the same bike a long time ago.

UncleCliffy (Apr 26, 2010 at 18:51)

So did my bro Colby. I remember him jumping the biggest jump at the meadow in Redding Ca. and completely missing the landing. The first scorpion back-scratcher crash I ever witnessed. (You should've seen the reaction from Cecil Johns when it happened...)

trevpratt (Apr 26, 2010 at 7:26)

bryn's still got it

fullbug (Apr 26, 2010 at 8:11)

StuartParker (Apr 26, 2010 at 1:47)

Wow Rachel is just back and has had several 2nds. Great to see her back

a-c-r-o-n-y-m (Apr 26, 2010 at 16:31)

Does she appear to have "USA" tattooed on her arm?

El3ctroplatano (Apr 26, 2010 at 10:47)

What happened to Greg Minaar? Odd to see him off the podium...

robholio (Apr 26, 2010 at 15:24)

Minnar had the hot seat for a little while, but guys like Strobel and Atkinson call this track home, and it's gnarlier than the average bear. In some cases, hot seat times were separated by thousandths of a second.

crash23 (Apr 26, 2010 at 19:53)

Minnaar was just holding back and saving it for world cup, I think he could have easily given it 100% and gotten at least a top 3. The whole weekend he looked like he was just cruising, I think the syndicate went there just looking for some more practice for maribor rather than taking it as an actual race.

northwestdhdad (Apr 26, 2010 at 20:13)

crash23- He did give his all and isn't 100% healthy from his MTX Enduro crash where smashed all his leg muscles into mangled jello. He's gutted and he knows the road ahead is hard. He'll dig deep as he is a true champion.

Pininator (Apr 27, 2010 at 0:19)

Did not know that. With that being said, not a bad job on a tricky little hill with some fellow pinners around.

crash23 (Apr 27, 2010 at 8:57)

Oh yeah I forgot about his moto crash, if thats the case then I think he is in some trouble, hopefully he can get it together before maribor.

Next Up! .....Plattekill.

richierocket (Apr 26, 2010 at 3:30)

Mmmmmm, West Coast...... Alos, theres a pocket full of PODs in there!

HellslayeR (Apr 26, 2010 at 13:56)

Which is the Knee/Shin protection that Greg Minaar use?

UncleCliffy (Apr 26, 2010 at 18:56)

They're Alpinestars, but those must be new as they aren't on the website yet...

northwestdhdad (Apr 26, 2010 at 20:14)

They are just not sold in the USA. Which sucks for us.......

Port Angeles, that's a Twilight thing, right?

transitionrider19 (Apr 26, 2010 at 4:25)

twilight is an insult to washington and the north west and sets the wrong image if u know what i mean "sparkaly faced vampiers" wtf lol

nouser (Apr 26, 2010 at 12:03)

as someone who grew up on the peninsula...i will say it for all of us. twighlight sucks. horny young girls, there is nothing for you in forks, vampires/ werewolves dont exist, especially not in port angeles, dungeness or sequim! and the fact that it can take three hours to get a ferry home in the summer because of those damn books is insane!

transitionrider19 (Apr 27, 2010 at 9:28)

haha i agree finaly some one who thinks like i do lol
