Results: Red Bull Joyride - Crankworx Whistler 2015

 Brandon Semenuk is just so god damn gnarly... I need to change my pants after watching his run.

 flatdrop flip to can during his victory lap was insane

 If rogatkin had done something heavy of the last jump he would have definetly thrown Brandon of the podium

 I totally agree. He should have tried a front flip.

 Nah, you can't win a slopestyle event while wearing the Bullet. It's slopestyle not slopedoloadsofspinsandshit

 Nick needed to combo his backflip off the whale tail to best Semenuk. No idea why he didn't. Everything else he did was money.

 is brett alright?

 Did you all forget Brandon still had another run?

 @jackers but he didn't so...

 can anyone tell me exactly how different Semenuk's run was from last years? just the can flip-whip?

 Diffrent spots on course, decade, some new tricks

 oppo truck driver off the start-last year he did a flat drop flip can, 360 downside whip-last year he did a 3 tuck, flip double whip the same, last year he didnt bar the wallride, cork 7 then flipwhip to can on the 4 set- last year he did a flip bar to cork 7 on the 4 set, on the boner log he did a flip bar- last year he did an oppo whip, on the hip he did a double whip-last year he did a tailwhip, up the cabin he did a double truck-last year he did a flip, on the way down the cabin he did a flat drop flip-last year he did a fastplant 3, last year he didnt barspin the toilet berm, he did a barspin up the whaletail instead of a tuck no, then the cork 7 was the same. pretty different runs really

 Rogatkin can throw down massive tricks, but he has no style whatsoever. A run full of sketchy, stiff looking bangers vs a run full of smooth as f**k stylish bangers. Style will win every time.

 @chris199 Rogatkin has his tricks so dialed and has such a great attitude towards the sport. Yesterday during practice he threw down a cork 7 to cash roll purely for the crowds pleasure. Don't get me wrong, I love a nice smooth stylish run but I love watching rogatkin throw down these insanely technical and risky tricks flawlessly

 Why prop jackers comment, coulda, shoulda, woulda. But he didnt. ``I would`ve had you man but I did this and that`` Such a sore losers attitude.

 You're mad that people agree with Jackers? Personally I though Rogatkin's run was more impressive than Semenuk's. He had riskier tricks that nobody else was doing. Maybe if Rogatkin can smooth it out next year, he'll take the win over Semenuk.

 @mm0302 thanks, that was exactly the explanation i was looking for.

 Rogatkins run was good. But Semenuk made it look easy. He barely pedaled through his whole run, just flowed the whole course so casually. He deserved to win.

 @Jackers I wouldnt say dialed. Im sure he's a good bloke and like I said, he can throw down bangers, but just lacks the style to beat rheeder and semenuk.

 Pilgrim's score should have been at least 70

 At least someone else was thinking what I was thinking... Idk how watts got the score he did

 Genovese was so good but got such a shit score

 Was super surprised of the score they gave Sam for his second run as well.

 Greg Watts sucked, he was better ten years ago ...............................

 kinda hard to return to form after breaking your neck, watt's definitely was overscored but there's a reason he's worse now than he used to be

 You seriously just made my day bro, thankyou

 Haha no Thomas Zejda score is a joke 69

 Thank you for that Old Gregg comment! I could learn to love ya!

 How exactly did Greg Watts suck? His run was next level. You Pinkbike groms have it easy sitting behind a keyboard and making your narrow minded judgements. You have no idea how much athletes like Greg Watts have and are doing for this sport. Every single one of the riders competing in Joyride are insanely talented and deserve to be there. So you can start talking when you've contributed an ounce to the world of slopestlye, in the mean time keep your deragatory comments to yourself.

 CHRISTAN-W In fucking comparison ffs

 Agree that pilgrim deserves more than 62

 @CHRISTIAN-W please consider that you don't have to be a good singer to judge Justin Bieber. Watts is, obviously, an mtb hero but his slopestyle runs are always the same! 360s & backflips combined with barspins and suicides.
F**k it, let me be 100% clear.

Greg Watts | Sam Pilgrim | Wins
360 drop | flatdrop BF | Pilgrim
Superman sg | 360xup | Pilgrim
360 suicide nh | Cork 720 | Pilgrim
BF suicide nh | BF tuck | Draw or Watts
BF double bars | BF tailwhip | Draw or Watts
Suicide nh | Flip | Pilgrim
BF xup | 360 | Watts
BF up | Tw up | Pilgrim
360xup down | 360 down | Watts
Bar in | No trick in | Watts
BF out | BF table out | Pilgrim

For me Pilgrim wins especially when you consider variety of the tricks. Watts score was almost 70, Pilgrim got 62. Come the f*ck on.

 @bartzt I like how you broke that down... It does make a ton of sense

 and brett... wouldve been nice to see a showdown between him and brandon

 I want to see 2 clean runs from both brandon and brett that would be the highlight of the year

 Did he ever got a full run in joyride these last 3 years ? It always looks like he's trying to land a new trick during his run ...

 Pressure was just too darn hard on Rheeder... Poor guy. LOVED his backflip DOUBLE tailwhip

 Pressure might have been part of it but he was saying he was sick all morning yesterday.

 Oh really was he sick i didn't knew thanks for telling

 he definitely has that trick dialled

 He twisted like a fish!

 Agreed, I havent seen zink finish a slope run in years

 Probably yes. I felt like he just picking the tricks that he wanted to have in his bag, but never actually is consistent with. It also sucked that there wasn't any substitute for 2 missing guys. I'm guessing that Matt Jones or Bearclaw would love to put up a run

 I was crushed when Rheeder went down, his run was so cool.

 Yeh, it's strange. Some other monster athletes have lost their sponsor. e.g. Rat boy.

 Is Aggy still with them?

 @jakecallcut as far as I was aware, ratboy left monster, not them him? Apparently because "I just don't drink the stuff" or something along those lines (probably needed a translator to get the quote down to that)....

 I saw Ratty promoting the wedrinkwater movement instead. Great to see athletes with an opinion.

 Wow really anyone have a link to this? What an amazing role model!!

 Check Sam Dale's instagram account! He was also wearing a shirt from them during trackwalk in Windham.

 he did like an invert during the first 360 rotation

 He tried it in Les2Alpes too, but crashed. For me looks like turndown 720

 its called cork720 unturn.

 Cork 720 downside invert

 Cork 720 unvert

 Because it isn't easy live streaming an event like this? Glad that you are appreciating the free high quality content.

 You would think media poduction and event coordinators would have moved that camera angle just a bit in pre production. That seems pretty easy. And with the amount of red bull i drink its about time they gave me somthing for free. Wait i pay for internet.... damm this response isn't even free..

 You'd be amazed at how expensive it is to put on the event coverage like Redbull does. Sure, they are a multi-billion dollar company, but without them stepping up we wouldn't have near the coverage of these events (as well as WC downhill races). I don't buy any energy drink, but if I did it would likely be RB just so as to keep them doing what they're doing.

 Triple whip on the hip before the cabin....I think it should have been a little higher....

 That cork was insane gives me goosebumps

 I couldn't breathe !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 Rheeder may win everything, but RB Joyride is saved for Semenuk

 Thought he was for sure going OTB then when he landed back on his bike I laughed so hard.

 Do you have a time on that from the red bull replay? Would love to see that.

 Happens about 28 mins in. Enjoy

 Interesting take on a double superman.

 Aha may of been a bit misleading there.. an actual double would be sick

 so bummed for him

 Clearly not since Semenuk has won Crankworx 4 times, and Rheeder has not won it once. Rheeder is good, but when Semenuk is on his game, he is unbeatable.

 Why did Rheeder win the Crankworx overall then?

 I thiknk he means Whistler crankworx. Its the only one that matters to a lot of people I guess?

 He went to barspin out of the wallride, and didn't catch the bars.. such a shame

 agree, was looking fwd to seeing his run

 Same here. If he had thrown a barspin on that transition jump, he would have tricked everything, and might have won. But he needed that speed for the next two jumps (720 and cashroll !). That was insane !

 but he did a barspin there ...

 He should have better thrown a doublewhip out of the whaletail

 @RedBurn well, I might have missed this one then !

 You didn't watch in 2012 did you?

 Looks good! www.facebook.com/sampilgrimfanpage/videos/10155862902305214

 Broken collarbone

 Crash in practice?

 Maybe they expected even more this year? But I had the feeling that the course was more difficult than before. At least regarding the difficulties quite a lot of the riders had carrying just the right amunt of speed...

 landed low on flip double whip, didnt have the speed for the next, but went for it anyways

 not looks like that.I read about pedal slip after pedaling to the second jump...

 Redbull.com

 He crashed first run and second he just didn't have enough speed or something

 Semenuk spiked his drink
