You heard it. A new part of the Redbull Rampage track. Here's a pic of Bender hitting it.

shit, we really have to give this guy some credit... look at the fucking picture.

people on this site whine about "posers" but the real posers are the assholes insulting insane athletes like this guy on a goddamned internet forum.

the majority of you guys (and me) would simply crap your pants and die if you were that high in the air on a bike...

(and yes, I know these replies were made a year ago, but they still piss me off)

the gap is 60', not 142. bender crashed on it during practice, cuz he was the first to attempt it, and then stuck it during the comp

^ Well no shit man. It was already said in a dozen MTB magazines. This thread was created right as it happend so of course the jump size is different when they actually got around to measuring it.

^IT'S NOT FUCKING WOW!!!!
BENDER is a complete retard who can't bike for shit. i walways pulls up too hard so his bike is vertical in the air and he lands as hard as a potato sac.

If you lokk at kyle strait for example, his biking's simon dumot, he is young, he goes HUGE, he has mad style, and he is sponsored by red bull and oakley.

And the gap i "only" 60 feet long.

no wonder bender never wins red bull rampage

^ Hey do not trash on Bender. Without him we wouldn't be anywhere as close as we are now with technological advances in freeriding. Bender pushed the envelope of what is possible on a bike when no one else even comprehended it. Hell without him you wouldn't even have the Redbull Rampage.
