But it will be for everyone else hahaha

I think Rheeder's run had better tricks but Semenuk was just waaaaaay smoother

I heard someone say today that comparing them is like when people compare chad kerley to garret reynolds, they're both on another level but reynolds has alot more experience because hes been basically the best for so long. Perfect analogy.. It's anyones game at this level.

After riding with Brandon for a bit, I realize that this is just a chill run for him

Mmm. This i always on my recent vids. Watched it atleast over 10 times. Its just soo smooth.

thats why he won judges do just judge on tricks they judge on style, tricks, amplitude, and how well they execute the trick so you could do the most amazing trick on every jump but slip both feet and you can do hard tricks and land perfectly every time and win idk if that made any sense

bryans (Apr 8, 2013 at 21:24)

they're both on a similar level, it's pretty hard to compare the two because they ride differently, I wouldnt want to be a judge one of these contests. Semenuk is definitely like the cleanest mountain biker ever tho

beanbelly (Mar 17, 2013 at 16:14)

Is he riding a d.s???? I swear I'm not retarded it really looks like he is

icarpent7 (Jul 22, 2012 at 10:05)

Cork 720's on lock!!

nouser (Jul 23, 2012 at 18:05)

that was sick!

gabg (Jul 23, 2012 at 8:14)

Nice ride

spooky1982 (Jul 22, 2012 at 16:59)

its not a cork 7 its a 360 backflip ... he even spoke about it ... watch it in slomo he flips first .

mhopper (Jul 23, 2012 at 2:21)

if it was a 3 flip he would be doing the flip and the 3 at the same time. you can clearly see two 3 rotations

gavlaa (Jul 23, 2012 at 5:56)

The 2 axes are always going to blur- like a 360flip in skating. You can't physically rotate one way, then stop, and then rotate another way mid air (unless you had a jet pack to counteract you trajectory). I would argue that it's a 360 flip, because he goes upside down so has rotated vertically and also goes backwards- so also rotates on horizontal plane. I must add that I don't really care- it's sick and that's all that matters.

put it this way, he wins cuz we dont know what the fuck he threw down
