Потому что конкуренты? Как-то хз, зачем сдавать им рекламоместо. Триал я не замечал за соинвестициями.
Я не бомблю, сайт по факту внешнего вида не поменял, соотношение элементов осталось таким же.
зы: бомбят чувачки которым барахолка не нравится.
зы: бомбят чувачки которым барахолка не нравится.
Ну так пусть и не пользуется. Почему к барахолке такое повышенное внимание, хотя кучу других элементов на сайте большинство тоже не кликает?
В этом есть проблема — на эти иконки кликрейт ооооочень низкий.

Но-но, не путай торча с триалом. Это все равно что сказать что рад хеллрайду принадлежит.

Оригиналы ответов. Он отвечал на английском, ибо на телефоне нету русской раскладки. Плюс о байке на русском практически никогда не общался.
1. I got the idea for the Twister looking for variations of a cashroll. I had already done cashroll barspin and tried no hander, whip, and others. Then I thought what if I could add an extra rotation? I didn't work for many tries but I was very motivated to do it so I tried until it worked.
2. Everything about Sochi was cool. The fact that it was an Olympic city was definitely cool to experience, and it was very evident that the entire city had been built only a few years before. The views from the top of the mountains were also insane.
3. The bike park has a lot of potential. It is very impressive for how little time it's been around and how little people have been able to work on it. I think in a few more years, more work, and more of a bike scene developing there, the bike park will be able to be epic.
4. Rampage is one of the most influential events in MTB. It's definitely an honor to be part of an event of such magnitude. However, every single rider risks their life on that mountain on contest day. That risk in some people's mind is not worth it. For me, riding there was an unreal experience and I would for sure be willing to do it again.
5. My spleen rupture back when I was 16 was definitely my worst experience. It didn't hurt so bad when it happened, however, the following 10 days in the hospital after the crash were the most painful days of my life. Constantly on morphine and struggle. Luckily, after 8 months off the bike I came back strong.
6. My switch from Bmx was influenced by the fact that the dirt jump scene in bmx was decreasing severely, and the MTB scene was all about big jumps and big tricks, which is my favorite thing about riding bikes. Martin Soderstrom and Geoff Rogers (Specialized TM) helped me get my first mountain bike and I was able to learn almost all my tricks on before my first contest in Colorado in 2013. I ended up 6th that day and from there I stayed in the MTB world.
7. All the riders around the world are actually super stoked on the Russian scene. The Russian riders are very progressive and have their own unique, gnarly style. Pavel Alekhin has been a good friend of mine for many years and he's definitely leading the Russian scene in terms of progression and fame. Other riders like Peter Andreev are getting better and better. As I said, everyone is stoked on the Russian riders.
8. My every day session is different. My main goal is always to go out and have as much fun on my bike while pushing myself to my limit and progressing as much as possible. Sometimes, specific tricks and features have to be worked on if certain upcoming events require it. Whenever it's possible I try to get on my DH bike because I have a lot of fun with that. But over the course of the season, every day that I can be, I'm on my bike. And no matter if it's training or messing around with friends, it's always a privilege to be able to do that as my job.
9. My full face has no visor because it's beneficial for my rotational tricks, and it's safer for crashing. Back in the BMX world no visor was normal because legends like Dave Mirra and Jamie Bestwick rode no visor. So when I moved to MTB it suddenly became a subject of lots of attention. However I stayed true to myself and focused on my progression instead of the fashion. That's why I've remained without a visor. The Quad whip is a trick that I've been thinking about for a while. I did it several years ago on BMX and it's most definitely possible on MTB, but I need a massive jump. I haven't found the perfect contest jump yet to risk it on, so hopefully soon I'll be able to build a jump that it can be done on.
10. For a rider to achieve a good sponsor, the best way to do so is to focus on pursuing goals and progressing themselves, because then you will ride well. And when you ride well, you will get good sponsors. In terms of the question of where is there more money: in racing or in tricks, I personally do not have a confirmed answer for that. For racers they have many eyes on them and are riding bikes that those at ever bike park will ride. So if I had to answer the question I would say there's more money in racing, and that makes a lot of sense. For all pro riders however, it's not about the money. Being a professional in the sport we love has been a dream since we were young, and now we are living that dream. It's about cherishing every moment of that opposed to caring about the money.
11. Fear is a huge presence in every riders mind, no matter how good they are or how fearless and crazy they seem. The way I personally got through that fear is through my desire for progression. I wanted to land new tricks, jump bigger jumps, and progress so much, that pushing through my fear and taking risks always felt worth it. And after years upon years of pushing through my fear it became part of everyday life to push my fears aside and go for it.
12. Beyond the Twister, tricks are limitless. Even though it constantly may seem as though tricks cannot get bigger, they always will. For me personally, I am working on dozens of new tricks. Some are working great, some are not working at all. That's the only way trick progression works. We'll have to wait and see next season if I can pull any new stuff! I'm excited to explore the possibilities.
13. My future plans in MTB for now are the same as they have been in the last few years; progress the sport as much as possible, and try and compete for another world title. Hopefully there will be some video projects as well, I enjoyed the ones I did this year, especially the one in Sochi.
14. I'm not sure when the next time I'm going to Russia is. I've taken 3 trips there times in my life now, twice to Moscow, once in my parents' hometown St. Petersburg and finally this year in Sochi. I really hope I'll be able to go again next year or soon after, life in Russia is definitely much different than anywhere else and it's great to experience!
15. Crazy things go through every riders mind during any rotational trick. The biggest thrill of some tricks is not knowing if you're going to land it until the last second. That sparks a lot of adrenaline inside the body. During a Twister, there's definitely crazier thoughts going through my mind than during any other trick I've ever done. Off the start it's simply spinning as hard as my bike and body will let me, then finding myself in the air as I approach the landing and trying to ride out. It's absolutely one of those tricks that you have to hang on until the last second and trust that it's going to work the whole way, even when it does not seem like it's going to
16. The reason for many riders switching from mtb to BMX is because MTB is very appealing to BMX dirt jumpers. Us dirt jumpers thrive on going big and doing tricks, and also scaring ourselves on big jumps. In MTB, the jumps are of course bigger due to the greater capabilities of the bikes. That makes the possibilities so much bigger for what can be done. In the end there are so many similarities and the differences between the two. Both disciplines are on two wheels, the tricks are very similar, the jumps are relatable.
17. My brother has gone on a different path that does not involve bikes. He rode BMX with me back in the day and he was hugely talented, he was jumping Dew Tour size box jumps at 7 years old. However after several big crashes as he started to really progress, his passion faded and he went more into the popular sports, American Football and Hockey. He is absolutely killing it in both of those sports so I'm fully supporting him and stoked for him in that sense. And even though he doesn't ride professionally he loves riding Downhill. He rides with me all the time at my local spot Highland Mountainbike Park, and has come with me the last 2 years to Whistler and ridden laps with my dad and I there!
18. In terms of education, I was very fortunate to grow up in a very educated community and go to great schools throughout my childhood. Even though I missed a lot of school in my time due to going away for competition, my parents were very strict and imminent that I do well in school. So I was constantly doing schoolwork, and it was the priority above riding. Since graduating highschool my full focus and commitment has been to riding, and honestly I now get to live out my dream, and I feel very lucky to be able to do that.
19. My favorite spot? That's quite hard to decide. I'm going to have to choose my local spot Highland Mountain. That place has helped me tremendously in my mountain bike career since day 1. It has everything from indoor foam pit and rezi to proper downhill trails, slopestyle course, and dirt jumps. Over the last couple years so many pro riders have sessioned there for weeks, and those sessions have been unreal.
20. The slopestyle scene is at an unbelievable level right now. Each video and competition is mind blown to fans and riders alike. The top 2 riders in the slopestyle category in the recent years have been Rheeder and Semenuk. So to be mentioned in the same league as them is an honor for sure. We have had our battles and been on the podium together several times, and those competition experiences have been unreal. The vibe in our sport is great and even though rivalry and competition is always there, the respect and friendship is always there as well. Hopefully in the future Rheeder, Semenuk and I can all continue to increase our level of riding and continue to progress the sport and inspire young riders to follow their passion and ride MTB.
