Now a tradition, Friday evening of the Ranchstyle marks the Pinkbike Best Trick Contest. Under perfect western slope Colorado skies, the contest kicked off with perfect weather and amazing golden hour light. It didn't take long for the riders to get comfortable and to start throwing some serious tricks. We are leaving the judging up to YOU, the pinkbike viewer. Take a peek at the video and place your votes for this year's winner of the Pinkbike Best Trick contest!
The Ranchstyle Mountain Bike Festival would not be possible without our
fine sponsors and especially
Big Mountain Events.
Stay tuned for more from the Ranch and the 2012 Ranchstyle Mountain Bike Festival!
A special thanks to the Ranch filmers that helped make this happen; Tim DaCosta, Quinn Maxwell and George Knowles. And an even bigger thanks to George Knowles for burning the midnight oil long past the strike of midnight to get this video prepared in time for voting!

Oh ya
Braydon Hay youre hear to
stay!!!!
YES Wyper's cordova flip was sick but he did not land it there fore he should not be winning. Carson landed that huge 720 like butter, there were some combos thrown like bar spin to tuck.
1. Nick Clarke
2. Casey Groves
3. Carson Storch
I like to think that the above is true (I just couldn't hear him above that flamin' music) and that's why I voted Rheeder..

TW/BF's are getting REALLY old. It's a staple move - if you CAN'T do them then you shouldn't be riding slopestyle. I don't mind combos or variations but on their own they are beyond stale.
Anyway sweet video - some awesome combos got thrown down and plenty of them were quite refreshing and exciting to see
I wish Casey's tricks had better angles, but yeah the video was great!
1) Backflip Cliffhanger by Wiper
2) Indian Air 360 by Casey
3) Barspin to Tuck by Messere
Is it just me or do 360 tailwhips, backflip tailwhips, double tailwhips, front flips, front flip tucks, backflip tucks just don't cut it anymore for best trick? Hell if I could do any of them, but it just doesn't seem like the riders are pushing for the "Best" in the Best Trick competition.
And @TomSmoke: Wow he did the Tuck no hander to tailwhip also....
Let me just ask this: Smooth Backflip Tailwhip VS. Wiper's Cordova?
