I just got a text. Apparently they are going to resort to the retarded text vote. I wish they would just judge the thing. Oh well.

Anyways, if you want to vote for your favorite, just text the two initials of their name to the # 43776. I think the best whip starts at 6:30 PST. I'm voting for JG, because he got robbed last year.

Someone will do a backflip can-kiss of death superman and get everyone to vote for them since all the other riders are doing "lame air turn things"..

No shit. Zoom out so we can see the whip start to finish without switching camera angles.

Todd Potter seems like a tool but he just schooled everyone easily.

Stupid contest IMO. Potters look back whip is sick though. Mcneils was good too. Still a retarded contest though, especially with text voting

I wonder what percentage of people voting actually know what a "whip" is... 5%?

looks like one guy went for the trick in the whip contest.

Agreed, but I would rather vote for a huge tool racer than a FN free styler douche.

It was hard but I indeed voted for the guy I feel is the doucheyest. His 180's were undeniably the best.

Myles Richmond had the best whip last year for sure. Then it was close between pot-head and Jerry Garcia, I mean Josh Grant.

I wish they would have had a better view for when Hanny whipped. It was always a shitt angle and they didn't show a replay of him.

I half expected Potter to land it backwards with the clutch pulled in, then wheelie the other direction when he stopped.

Yup, you don't see them switching camera angles and zooming like mad for the half pipe or street course stuff.

We got old dude.

Seriously, aside from Pastrana, the only cool thing for me was seeing MC, RC, Reed, Stewart, Windham etc ride in the events with the freestylers.. and supermoto with Wardy and the street bike guys was bitchen.

Less is... well, less.

I'm not going to reveal who I voted for. Those kinds of things should remain private.
