    RBtv not really working for me. YT stream is fine.

    Brendog….robbed!!!

    Thats the type of runs I love – yeah the tricks are impressive but that’s not freeride for me.

    Otherwise, yeah agree Tracey – the quality is insane.

    Not sure what he has to do to convince the judges.

    The crowds didn’t like their score.

    His control was amazing, the landing on to the rock was absolutely perfect

    Then the judges shaft him

    However I guess his background doesn’t relate to tricks which is clearly how the event is focused

    If I were him I wouldn’t ride the 2nd run

    yep, watching Brendan getting robbed again.

    Interesting hearing the judging process, that they compare runs to pitch the score. So the number given is superfluous, just say, “we think he’s third”.  Scores literally mean nothing in isolation, it’s just a mechanism for ranking.

    Brendog’s run as awesome as ever. Just not what the judges want (or red Bull will condone). Loving the crowd reaction to his score though!

    The YouTube comments section is still rolling with “brendog robbed” over and over again

    My (conspiracy) theory is, the organizers believe that if he wins he won’t return to defend his title. As he’s the most popular rider (in my house, at least) they need keep him coming back year after year so that people keep watching. Without Brendan, Rampage would be nothing!

    Yeah – just shows once again Rampage can’t score anything for technical features. It’s all about the tricks and whips. Typical American BS is all about the V8 PoWeR rather than the cornering finesse.

    I’m getting more concerned that they are purposely scoring people down to force them to take even bigger risks on 2nd runs for the click and likes of Red Bull

    Doesnt appear the scoring is at all linked to agreed set of rules etc

    As far as the digging of lines, how does it compare to a golf course, grouse moor or ski resort. It’s pretty insignificant I’d have thought. Nature will reclaim it within a year.

    I think I was Brendan I’d already be in the truck on the way to Vegas.  If what he put down is only good enough for 9th in the judges eyes, there’s not much point him risking his life for 8th.

    Brendogs run was special, but unfortunately not rampagey enough for the judges again.  Agreed he should just head off to Vegas with his crew now as his line isn’t for tricks. It’s been great watch him build and tick it off this week.

    Hope Zink manages to walk this off, worrying that they cut the coverage.

    Yeah that was one run and done. Can’t improve on that.

    Superb effort but time to get out of there

    Didn’t like the look of that fall one bit. He was totally unconscious at the end of it, looked scary. Hope I’m wrong and it’s not serious

    There’s underscoring Brendog, then there’s putting him behind Kyle Straight, who did nothing particularly exciting and nearly fell off

    We have heard that Cam Zink is moving and will be getting a helicopter out of the venue due to a suspected leg injury
