You've got the reports on all three days now, you've seen the pictures we've littered the articles with, but that isnt all! Oh no! We've got a lot more pictures to show you. Because of course, pictures speak a thousand words. Without further ado...

Well thats it. Crankworx is over for another year. We've seen the old school Simmons show the new kids a few things or two, and then again Paul B.. previously unheard of until last year holding onto the title for a second year. Theres Cameron Zink and Cam McCaul.. two riders hitting the spotlight now. The Norweigans have showed us a thing or two with Niel Windfeldt and Trond Hanson. Jared Gatzka pulled out all the style. Jamie Goldman really pulled out all the stops with HUGE backflips. And most of these guys are still young. You look at a year ago and backflips could only be done by the cream of the crop, and now its not enough on its own, you need to cancan it, or barrel roll flip. Who knows whats coming next year?
The futures looking very good for MTB.. keep riding.
