The Rheeder Project: Episode 1

I really enjoyed this. Being at both UDUG and Jumpship riding with Brett really gave me an inside scoop on what he talks about. The part about him proving himself at Jumpship was spot on. I knew Brett was on some shit at UDUG and after he took that slam on the switch whip I was kinda just like, ‘fuck dude I just want him to do well.’ I could tell how motivated he was prior to the contest and knew how hard he had worked in the ‘off season’. I couldn’t wait for him to put a run together and get what he deserved. Plus homie barspun a fire in the pitch black. (Listen for Ross’s stoke levels on his Iphone photo) Jumpship was one of the shadier courses ever but he made that stepup to berm to dish thing look like butter and held it down in all three runs. This video also didn’t show Brett being the first one on the barge digging in the rain like, ‘yo like if we all just clear this out and run ply wood we could be riding in a couple hours’. Rumor has it he drinks Redbull and milk three times a day to stay on top of his game. 

Jumpship highlights from Larocque. Haven’t watched yet but I assume it’s good.

Pretty ghetto edit of Jumpship. Starts off with some practice footy and ends with some contest runs. Brandon’s switch bar to catwalk tuck was a standout for me. Edit: Noah Allman.

I hope to see some footy of his last run, t’was the favourite amongst the riders. - Wink.

Jumpship 2012 Results Brandon Semenuk Brett Rheeder Anthony Messere It was a kind of weird judging format with your best 2 of 3 runs counting, but TEAM RIDER Brandon pulled out a corked 7 mid-run on his second run; pretty wild. They tried to do a High Jump comp but didn’t have a bar so it was audience judged, and Sam Dueck won. He definitely boosted pretty high. Best trick was Casey Groves with a 360 Indian. Gully got injured on the super sketchy starting drop that they eventually scrapped from the course; looks like a separated shoulder. Greg Watts went down as well and gave himself a nasty face gash and concussion. Shitty to see him hurt just as he was coming back from a broken back.

New Jumpship video with Jordie. This is my favorite one so far mostly because Luke gets shot in the face.
