My same feeling. I feel like the coverage and line choice stuff was way earlier in previous years. Maybe they're keeping the stoke low for some reason? Weather?

I remember having the same feeling last year, most of the footage before the finals weekend was from instagram. I think they purposefully limit the press coverage of the preparation stage to keep up interest. I can kinda see how if they showed the same 4-5 lines all week and riders hitting most of their lines it would take away from the finals. Still, the media blackout is a bit weird...

A few years back, when the site location had pre-built features, there would be more info out there. Now that Rampage has gone back to a more raw format, there isn't any pre-building to cover and share.
In addition, the site is on full lockdown (riders and diggers only) for the first 5 days. Starting tomorrow, more media types will be allowed at the venue and we'll start to see more of the goods.
