@Brandon - How many of your tricks did you learn in a foam pit? A lot of your tricks are so big and unique, did you just get them right in the first couple tries on dirt, or did you spend days at the Airdome perfecting them?
@Andrew- What's it feel like to be a living legend watching the sport progress like crazy lately?
best of luck everyone for 2011, cheers Tom
personally I think some sort of big mountain, north shore rampage style (i.e. the whole building your own line thing) would be epic if that makes sense?
Although I'm british I don't strictly mean wood work, I mean BC north shore, like the wade simmons section in NWD8 and kinda Brandon's section in Follow me with Stevie smith, I think its great when there are complete mixtures of riders at comps,everything from DJers to DHers to trials riders
sorry for a really wordy question might just need summarising
Brandon: what keeps you riding your bike ? and were was your Favorite place to ride ever>
cheers
@Cam do you have ADD?
I ask becouse my good friend have done this and we and our team called "Tabor Team" visit him in hospital as much as we could but its hard to find new words to make him believe its do-able. We got foundation called "4 Bro" on facebook to connect all friends togather to give him as much love as we can. Cheers guys.

@ Trek - When will they be releasing a 4" x 4" slopestyle bike with ABP and full floater technology? We have been seeing you to guys ride these prototypes for a few years now and it is killing me to not have one! Trek has steped up their mtb game big in the last 5 years and this is the last piece of the puzzle. we know the technology is there! we have seen it! now let us have it!
thanks,
Jeff
@Brandon - Being one of the most iconic riders in the industry do you feel your riding style and trick variations have a big influence on the direction of slopestyle?
@ brandon: now that everyone wears tight pants and 6.0 high tops what comes next? capes? water wings? moar tall tee's.?
@ Cam: hows the recovery coming, and whats on your schedule for 2011?
PS: You guys are THE best.
Keep in mind that the other half of the world is on a different time schedule than you =) We can't keep everyone happy!
@Brandon Semenuk I was wondering you have never really been injured to bad some small things here a there. How has your resent fall taken a toll on you? Has it been hard get back to where you were before?
Did you struggle with school growing up?
@Brandon-How does it feel not being in the last major comps?
Also, do you think you will ever stop competing and just be a media rider? -Someone just shooting for films/videos and picture.
Thanks,
Max Muir
