The hangtime!!!
so freaking sick. @iceman2058, it's crazy how "normal" all of this starts to look.
Progress report and more first hits action from DJ Brandt:
Let Nicholi Rogatkin, the ultimate hype man in MTB, be your host as he moves around the Rampage site documenting all the madness as it happens (make sure to scroll through all the slides in his post below). This will give you a great idea of how things stand at present. Can't wait for the event tomorrow!
haha nicholi rules! holy cow godziek wanted more boost to the canyon gap!
Hope all is good with Kyle. At this point all I saw was heli ride on instagram.

Dude this sucks. Hope he heals up quick with no lingering side effects.
Damn, that sucks. I'm always rooting for him. Is it just me or did the timeline to dig then practice, then compete feel really rushed this year? Gotta be hard on the riders to get their lines dialed in faster than normal. You don't see Strait go down often.
The drop he crashed on is huge. He apparently got pitched to the bottom of the landing which is steep and long. At least he didn’t roll off the sender there isn’t a ton of room up there. The few clips he posted of him hitting it on the first day it looked treacherous to get the speed right. Super bummed the Ironman of rampage is out. Hope he heals quick.
Well, Brett Rheeder hasn't missed a beat...
Yeah T-MAC!
Sounds like there's a small chance Zink won't be riding. Issues getting everything running correctly + some sore feet from a crash yesterday. His new video also has footage of Lyle's crash...
thanks for the heads up @AaronofGROOVE - here's the vid. man, he went down hard! hoping so much for a good day today.
Zinks crash was also pretty heavy man. These guys are built different, I swear
On-scene reporting from Ryan Rodriguez with some first hits.
on espn+ getting 2 mins of commercials while youtube is showing athletes, host discussions, crowd shots etc. #fail
That sucks..
#andreugotrobbed
so on youtube, rheeder's run gets replayed and analyzed while on espn, it's commercials LOL.
I guess I'm glad I'm stuck at work and couldn't stream it via espn+; or maybe I should call it espn-. ESPN 480: the n-ocho. Sorry, been a long day already.
So are the YouTube and espn stream the same program and announcers, but one has more paid promotions during the down time?
