 World's chillest cork-720 award goes to Semenuk. Cannot believe Nyquist is twice my age. Wicked riding from all!

 At first I thought she had just started to say freeride, but then she kept saying free mountain biking. I thought maybe I was behind the curve on the new lingo

 What happened to Matt Jones?
  • 19 7
 The judging started off pretty solid, then kinda went a little crazy with some of those scores after Semenuk. Maybe the judges were ready to give Brandon 150, then after the crash needed to spread those points around...
  • 19 5
 c'mon Brandon live a little.
  • 3 2
 it also looks like brandon's post run interview skills have taken one step forward and two steps back.
  • 14 2
 just witnessed nicoli's first run..... holy...
  • 6 1
 What impressed me more (if possible) was his second run when he threw down another banger just for the fans. Most just take a safe victory lap. I've not been sure what to think about Rogatkin but he just showed immense class on all levels.

 @dwojo: The fact that he did thid kind of victory run is just insane! Like a f*ckn boss
  • 13 5
 Great to see Nicholi on top ! He deserved it, that run was just on another level, and it was great to watch his second run just for fans,it was nuts. He is that kind of personality, that this sport needs, kind,good hearted, humble, and always pushing the boundaries of what is possible on a mountain bike. I´m really happy to see him finally on the top of the podium !

 Hi Pinkbike,
Thanks very much for all the live coverage, photo epics bike checks & everything else as usual.

But a small suggestion (or rather a request): When you post a replay video along with the results, could you please leave a little more space below the video, before posting the results?
I came in here wanting to watch the replay of the event, without knowing the results ahead of time. But I scrolled down one mouse wheel too far and BAM! results spoiled.

It was still an awesome event, worth watching, but it is always a little bit more fun when you don't know what will happen.

 Nyquist! wtf!!! epic run

 Imagine if he would have just catched the bars after 1 1/2 rotations. That would have been a crazy run.

 I saw a handful of Giant posters in the background, which I guess is a good way to remind us that Giant doesnt make DJ bikes anymore.

 Maybe with the $20k, he can buy himself a visor
  • 5 3

 Rogatkin needs no visor after doing runs like that!! I wonder want his run would have scored if he would have done a front flip tuck no hander on the dirt to dirt, second to last jump.... on his first run!!!!! Wink
