Godziek had the ideal Rampage run in my eyes. Fast and exposed up top. The canyon backflip was perfect and the spin before was crazy! Long live the dual crown fork at rampage.

[@Stuart.Knight]

Absolutely. The canyon flip is an OG move, and speaking as a slopestyle rider, I think we should abolish barspins and tailwhips at rampage.

[@ninjadom03]

@@Stuart.Knight ya same. This is supposed to be a downhill freeride event, not a slopestyle event

1st place for Godziek, also that backflip sui it’s insane 🤯

Much respect for all the riders, I’m a huge Semenuk fan, but DAYUM, Godziek’s run was mesmerizing, he is the real winner for me.

[@endurodlapoczatkujacych4504]

In Poland we don't say "I'm a huge Semeniuk fan, but Godziek's run was mesmerizing". We say "SĘDZIA CHUJ" and I think it's accurate.

[@domizietek7156]

Trafione w punkt 😉

[@jaysoniorg2950]

Kind of insane how they always overscore Semenuk's runs. All he ever does is the same old tricks while going slower than everyone else and riding smooth lines. At least they gave it to a big mountain guy for 2022, but Godziek has been robbed multiple times at Rampage.

[@aurelianogoodyears1916]

@@jaysoniorg2950 Evan as a Semenuk fan I can't deny it, but what's even more insane is that practically 90% of people who watched Rampage this year agrees with the fact that Godziek should be the winner.

[@jaysoniorg2950]

@@aurelianogoodyears1916 yeah, the judging at Rampage has always been weird, but especially for the last few events.

[@jamesciastko8861]

Well, it was more important for judges to eat pizza instead of judging Godziek's run. Godziek is absolutely the winner. Extremely smooth run from up to the bottom. Manuals between vertical cliffs, nohander backflip, 360 TO DOUBLE DROP TO 75FT CANYON GAP BACKFLIP vs few tailwhips and backflips. It was so unfair. I mean, Rheeder did great run but only after Godziek run i went speechless. Rampage is about freeride, pushing extreme barriers even further and not about slopestyle. Rheeder did great slopestyle run, but Godziek showed true essence of what Redbull Rampage is. In my opinion, audience votes should be taken into account.

[@GrafRamolo]

Exactly . Couldn't say it better my man. Agree .

[@pl4free]

preech! Godziek for sure nr. 1

[@oRicardoHetfield]

Its the norm in the is last few years... Judging in rampage sucks big time!!! Brendog and now Godziek... even Ridlles run was awesome and what freeride is about... i just can't understand! Even the venue for this year was weak...

[@felixghaffar9604]

@@oRicardoHetfield Have you seen Godzieks & rheeders line on-site by yourself? So you are able to compare it? I bet you don’t. Have you ridden rampage before? I also doubt that. Whereas the judges talk to the riders, builders, scout every line & see the pure danger/insanity. Godzieks run was completely crazy, but it seems that rheeders line was more technical than his. Look at the top part of Godzieks line. Pretty „easy“ way on the ridge.

[@BlueHopi144]

agreed , that score for him wasn't enough - should have had at least 92 or 93 for that amazing run

[@jamesbharker]

Godziek should have gotten the win ngl

[@jamesbharker]

It was a good run but compared to Godziek it was a big slow and definitely not as big or stylish. Rheeder may be a bit more technical but this is Rampage so the big mountain aspect should have been taken into better account :/

[@majky358]

Godziek run seems to be 1st place for me. Like every rider's run was epic but this was really cool to watch, that backflip over gap, oh.

[@savailiev4023]

@@janostendorf6791 yes it was all ok but Godziek went from 360 to backflip over the canyon.

Just read the other comments to see.

I was really surprised about Andreu. Would love to be a fly on the wall in the judges room. That was a phenomenal run, that should have been up there with these guys.

Godziek should win this! He shown a real spirit of Rampage and freeride! His ride was so huuuuuuuuuge!

[@Furui93Shin]

Crowd vote says it all. Godziek did something incredible out there. Plus he really threaded it together this time. I mean sure, all of the riders did huge runs out there this year. The style Semenuk and Rheeder are so enjoyable, but damn. They won it before already :P. We all know they ride Trek, Commencal or whatever... That manual at the top of Godziek's run was something different. I don't even want to imagine the possible consequences xD. These bikers have this once in a year chance to shine and while we can't have multiple 1st places... it seems really harsh on some of these guys. Judges keep on spoiling guys who bring more slopestyle to the game and basically a smaller bike with a huge bag of tricks and technique. So it kinda keeps on heading in that direction I guess. Reed did that huge flip off a drop which was soooo risky. We didn't see that rail thing one of the guys did and well... Judges also did an awfully good job of hurting Andreu with their scores. Again ._. Anyway. It was super exciting and scary to watch. Good job to all of the riders and their teams. Heart stopping.

[@kaleseinen5777]

Rampage was kinda "eh" this year. great riders and amazing competition but the outcome isn't to my liking, could be personal (I'm a big Semenuk fan but follow everyone) but i think this is how standings should've been. 1st. Godziek - The speed and control that he had throughout the whole run was exactly what an ideal rampage ride should look like. The consistency and amount of tricks were incredible. 2nd Semenuk - As always, Brandon was smooth and focused, and the start was just unreal. no one does it better then him in terms of smooth landings and mind boggling tricks. 3rd Rheeder - Rheeder did amazing but i was not as blown away or as impressed as i was with watching the other runs. However The backflip can and tailwhip over the 50 footer was gnarly. its hard to decide but i definitely think there could've been better calls and judging as some of the other riders like Jaxson Riddle for example had a heck of a run with so much flare and variation, and only got a 63 i believe. If you watched live you could see peoples faces, that was a bad call in my opinion. Over all though still an amazing event to watch, great job riders and everyone who worked hard to put it on! cant wait till 2023!

[@pokineusz3501]

I think the judges don't vote for impression, but for course and tricks difficulty. And each effort add up. If Godziek and Semenuk did one more drop, or one more difficult trick on the drops thay did, they would have beaten Rheeder, who IMO should get few points less, but still wins

It felt like a mini rampage as soon as the first rider dropped in. Sorry but this was WEAK guys..

[@pokineusz3501]

Probably that's why expert, ex professional riders are judging, not you :D it's not about the show, but about the difficulty of the course and the tricks made, and each challanging efforts add up. If you think that Godziek's 360 drop + canyon gap should be enough to beat every other rider, than you obviously don't respect the effort they've made. I've been watching Rampage for few years and always it was like that, the bigger drop - the greater score, the better trick on a big drop - the better score. Semenuk did 3 amazing drops and few pretty easy tricks beside that, Godziek same thing - 2 big drops + canyon gap, and few easier tricks, and finally Rheeder did 4 drops with a bunch of tricks. That's what counts in Rampage, so either get used to or stop watching :D
