patches Posted October 14, 2013 Share So after looking back at the poduim earning Rampage runs, I personally think that McGarry should have been on the top step. Straits run was fluid... but not mind blowing.Zink's flipping of the icon sender was mental, but he kinda lost it after that.McGarry I think had the best all round run. I wanna hear what you folk have to say though... Strait's run https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tHrs7MGucKs McGarry's run (1st vid on page. Will post youtube vid when one becomes available) Did McGarry get Norbied? Strait or McGarry? Edited October 14, 2013 by patches Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tumbleweed Posted October 14, 2013 Share I preferred McGarry's line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capricorn Posted October 14, 2013 Share as i saw it, not one person really deserved the title this year. subtract the big ticket nuttiness from either zinks or mcgarry's run, then Strait probably wins it. Hell, i'd give strait brownie points just because he guinea pigged the sender for Zink pretty much whole tournament. What's missing though is an unbroken run from Semenuk. that guy just has the crappiest Rampage luck out there. My thought when he took off on his first run was " Oh look, another specialized rider bailing in the first corner.." oh and lacondeguy?? quel dommage. What super fast run, but missing that BIG thing. Sexiest whip out there though. but hotdamn, this year was pure savagery. The crashpilation should be epic!

nigelhicks Posted October 14, 2013 Share Mc Garrys flip over the canyon was insane ... sorry but i think that puts Zinks flip off the Sender to shame. (although that flip that Zink landed was F-ing HUGE! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The crashpilation should be epic! is that a Gwin reference (sorry I'm still half asleep from watching the broadcast), hahahaha! If so... then yeah... Semenuk had 1 good Rampage year and has fallen off the pace since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZION Posted October 14, 2013 Share He got MCGAZZED not norbied sounds like a pain tablet http://es.pinkbike.org/sprt/f2/s/194.gif RitzKrakerz13 (9 hours ago) ZINK FLIPPED A FUCKIN 70 FT DROP MCGARRY FLIPPED A 72 FT GAP WHAT DID STRAIT DO A SUICIDE NO HANDER Peach. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Headshot Posted October 15, 2013 Share I think Zinks flip takes the cake as the bravest trick - 70 ft down as opposed to horizantal makes it more dangerous IMO. The judges got the top 5 right but probably the order wrong. They have to judge it then and there so we need to be fair to them too. AL should have been in the top 3- and probably would have but for the wind. I have the impression that BS is trying too hard - too hard a line chosen was his first mistake- maybe finding it hard to live up to his legend status when under pressure? wiledog_x 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syph3r Posted October 20, 2013 Share No chance strait deserved that, McGarry went balls deep for that canyon gap. His biggest problem was that he didn't go off a tier one sponsors zone ( rabble rabble conspiracy theory). Less cameras than the sender so you don't get the true magnitude of the travel and drop that was involved with that canyon. There is one micro pan shot from the back that sort of shows the actual magnitude of it. Plus a complete run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
