With the victory, Semenuk joined Kyle Strait and Kurt Sorge as the only riders to win two Red Bull Rampage events in their careers. Semenuk’s winning run not only impressed the judges, but the fans watching at home as well, as he also took home the People’s Choice Award Presented by Polaris RZR for the third year in a row.

Brandon Semenuk:

Winning Red Bull Rampage is an amazing feeling. The event is the pinnacle of freeriding for us.

Graham Agassiz

The competition took place in a brand new venue set against the incredible backdrop of mountainous Southern Utah. This year’s competition went back to basics with an updated event format, providing the riders a clean slate to carve out their own personal lines down the mountain with the help of a 2-person build crew.

Brandon Semenuk:

I loved the new venue. There were fewer riders with really big open space, which provided more room for people to get creative. The digging and the builders were on another level this year.

Cameron Zink

This year’s finals saw remarkable runs down the mountain, which combined speed, style, grit, and unbelievable skill. Semenuk impressed early on with his masterful run, which included a flat-spin 360, flat drop backflip and backflip one-footed can can, earning him a final score of 84.33.
