That just proves my point: Red Bull is a meat grinder! If I were Tom or any self-respecting athlete out there I'd avoid them like the plague. Did you notice how they all look like ants in Detlef's videos? How can you tell who is who? They all look the same! No face, no individuality, no personal style. Just not my cup of energy tea...

na, not the best video there is from KOTA. Watch the RB ones, very nice.

During livestream they also have interviews which is nice to hear the stoke from the riders, it is awesome.

Every rider has its part in it. Sure, Dimitri would outstand, but Tom was awesome, kevin did nice stuff, Aaron with a nice handlepass, Nick J. with funny tricks, the Core rider with really low kite megaloops etc.

Something for everyone, but again, too little of Airstyle tricks, due to boots. Looks like it will change this year to more straps riders, and this will lead to more boardoffs. Jesse, Gianni etc can do them for sure, and with straps they will show them.

Great ! :thumb:

OK, I'll keep an open mind. I'm a sucker for cool personalities. I just get ticked off by imitation cool...

Tom is absolutely one of the best riders out there. I love his style.

he is from New Caledonia and it is an island nearby he said.
I guess only accessible by boat.
Looks fantastic for sure!
