Woah jeez I thought I was gonna read he died. Doesn’t matter what brand he rides that guy rips. And he also seems like he can take or leave it which is pretty badass compared to all the boring and robotic jocks in the sport like Gwin

Man that one guy ( MTB Director?) came across like a complete arrogant dick. The rest was just corny.

This video and the classless remarks from specialized in the Pinkbike interview make me think the the big s is just bitter about losing him, when they should be kissing his ass for single-handedly putting them back in the DH game.

dale – seems like not that long ago people were talking up rennie, kovarik, peat vs the “boring and robotic” sam hill. although by that they mainly meant he didn’t race with a hangover…
