Mike Spinner Wins Dew Tour Park; Everyone Gets Mad.


Spinner won Dew Tour park, which is pretty impressive considering he’s been hurt for a long time now. Normally I would wait for the video to pop up online, not watch it, and post it, but this is funny because the whole Twitosphere seems to think Gary Young (or just anyone besides Spinner) should have taken the win. I haven’t seen either run but I screen-capped some of the funnier and more informative responses to Spinner’s win after the jump. I think it’s fair to say Tony Hamlin’s Tweet takes the cake.

BTW, Daniel Dhers got 2nd and Garrett Reynolds rounded out the top 3.

Also the “3 tricks” people refer to in some of these Tweets were apparently a 1080 turndown, triple whip air on a quarter and a quad whip over the box.

    wow…

    I just watched it on TV. Spinner did actually have a decent run. But so did everyone else. The one little australian kid killed it though.

    I dont get all the hate for spinner… he didnt judge the contest.

  • http://Website sdgasdg

    spinner’s first run was clean and everyone else was sluggish, he deserved the win but spinner’s the biggest douche and every time the cam was on him i wanted to kill myself

  • http://Website heyyybrian

    PAT CASEY FTW!!! fuckin 16yrs old. didnt fuck up.
    spinner did a quad whip but ballrode the fuck out of it. aka not pulled

    spinner also did they weakest flair attempt ever below coping on a 6ft quarter. vagina

    ballpark frank up his ass

  • http://Website Alex Bodnar

    his first run was clean? all he did was 1080. triple whip to crank arms and quad whip to ball ride. if that counts as CLEAN then i must have whips on lock… his run was total bs. he did a couple shitty x-ups and left every other ramp blank. gary young definitly should have won. his run was amazing.

  • http://Website mabub

    The entire basis for judging these contests make little sense. All the scores were bloated by Mike Spinner who got a 92 off of 3 tricks (two barely landed) on his first run. Because there is no actual standard for the judging all other runs have to be based off of this first run, which lead to all the scores being like .1 point from the podium.

    In general judging for stuff like this is impossible. The judges at these contests ( and they’re always different judges so its never uniform) have to decide if they want STYLE over SHEER NUMBER OF SPINS.

    The riders should choose who wins, then the best would truly be considered the best.

  • http://Website Threeark

    Hating on the rider for a judges decision is one of the lowest class things I have ever seen. Coming from so called “professional” riders and industry people is even worse.

  • http://Website heyyybrian

    fact: you win contests by doing sweet tricks.
    fact: mike spinner failed to do that.
    fact: mike spinner looks like he has hotdogs up his butt when he rides a bike.
    fact mike spinner is sponsered by ballpark franks

    spot on man. this guy has got it all figured out.

  • http://Website dopie

    i fucking hate mike spinner… usualy i always think i should at least meet a dude once to be allowed to judge over him… but this is different, especially after writing on the wall. my eyes burn when i see footy of his sorry ass

  • http://Website ohhhhhhh

    make homies with mike and when he wins a contest be there to help him blow his winnings on blow. shit, the dude is fuckin funny and he has always been chill. who cares about who wins, yeah Gary is the man, shoulda won for sure, but he will win the xgaymes this year, 100%. dont hate on mike, if you love bmx why are you hating on the mainstream part of it??? its all the same contests or not, its bmx.

  • http://Website meh

    agreed

    I don’t know why everyone is freaking out. I won fair in square. I guess I just got lucky. Peace BMX buddies.

    Fact Mike Spinner is sponsored (correct spelling) by Nike
    Fact Mike Spinner is sponsored (correct spelling) by Monster
    Fact Look up who else is sponsored by those companies (garrett, mirra, bestwick etc)
    Fact he is also sponsored by ballpark

    Now why in the world would you keep mentioning ballpark in your beefs? They are a sponsor of the Dew Tour like all these other companies. seems like you did not get a deal with ballpark or something like that. Something isnt right about that. Your complkaing about a sponsor?

    Fact Have you seen Dave Mirra get favorable scoring in the past few years? Many times
    Fact Have you seen Daniel Dhers get favorable scoring in the past few years? At least several times the past few yrs.
    Fact was it interesting to see a new champ last yr after Shers won 3 yrs in a row?
    Fact Having riders judge the scoring. You must be kidding. What sport does that? Personal bias, all sorts of issues.
    Fact the judges toss the top judge score and the lowest score and use the middle scores
    Fact why dont you talk to Bestwick and Dhers and tell them the other riders are going to score them. Especially Bestwick who wins virtually every single contest.

    I have on both of them for sure. Many riders today did not stay on their bikes. Hard landings etc.
    I know you guys are all Gary Young fans. he has three more dew events.

  • http://Website jtk

    yeah, who cares, but its funny to see people make fun of him cause he looks like a goon

  • http://www.delcobrand.com schnell

    Jamie wins every vert contest probably due to the fact that he is one of the best vert riders that ever lived. And since Mat Hoffman stepped down from the vert plate,and Mirra (IDK IF HE STILL RIDES THE VERT COMPS,I DON’T FOLLOW THIS RUBBISH) but Jamie has more style than mostly anyone,fuck the fact he is goofy footed,shit like that doesn’t matter when your first air is a wicked stylish 14 foot alley oop invert. Contests are good for contest people,if you don’t like the judging just don’t watch. Fuck it dude,lets go bowling.

    Is this really Spinner getting beat up?

  • http://Website Ben

    Spinner cannot do turndowns, so he did three shit tricks that are the only things he can do. He makes Dhers look like Aitken. What a twat.

  • http://Website heyyybrian

    fact: you are a faggot (did i spell that good enough for you to read.)

    pat casey rode better then spinner therefore pat casey should have placed better then spinner, true?

    dave mirra won contests cause dave mirra is a fucking boss!

    im not saying that spinner should’ve won cause i think that casey or reynolds shoud have but why the fuck is everyone cumming themselves over gary young? i could’ve done half the lines he just straight aired. and he cased half the jumps. ive seen gary ride way better

  • http://Website bikes and cats

    i would do blow with mike spinner if it was free

  • http://Website snacks bambino

    the most depressing fact of the matter is that its impossible for these contests to turn out fair. its like a corporation running a store, and THAT’s why spinner won. his sponsors sponsor the event. these contest can be nice to watch for fun but the turnouts i think are bullshit in its purest form.

    its already established pretty much if you can trip whip or throw good barspins your favored in a contest. these judges dont ride, they dont realize the aspect of style or creativity that should be considered for these contests, they just see a nigga do some flips and theyre almost gaurunteed a trophy.

  • http://wwtdd.com jap

    The judges of the contest were all riders, Leigh Ramsdell, Flipper from Albes, Kris Bennet, and Dave Friemuth. Their job is not easy at all, they are as fair as they can be. There are so many riders doing so many hard tricks, there’s no way to judge them against each other and make everybody happy every tme, except when Bestwick is riding vert and nobody can compare against him. Unless you were there and you watched the whole contest and saw every single run, you shouldn’t talk crap about how the placings turned out. Spinner pulled some of the hardest tricks possible on a bike back to back. Gary Young rode clean and did some good tricks, but most of his tricks can’t compare to the stuff that the other guys are doing, a nice tabletop or a transfer that he might do, if you analyze it, is not the same as one of Daniel Dher’s corkscrewed barspin to can-can 720s. You have to look at the whole run and the difficulty of all the tricks and somebody has to decide how it all compares to everybody else, and that is not easy at all, but the judges did a pretty good job. They weren’t influenced by money or sponsors or anything. They did a good job. Spinner rode good, There are a couple more contests coming up, let’s see how he does at them.

    Same 5 tricks in every fucking edit that comes out. An you trendy fuckers make your bikes look all the same.

    Same Bikes and same tricks. An you all scream about Spinner? What a waste of fucking time.

  • http://Website ridefox

    98 percent of you werent there to watch the whole warmup/contest go down. you didnt see riders eat it during their warmup get back up and ride in a 103 F heat index with strong winds and then start finals. all you saw right there was tricks landed and few falls/bails.

    most of you fucks are prolly hatin because the size of his ego and his cockyness. I’m positive most people would be like that if they came from living with your mommy and daddy, to having your own complex full bitches and all of the beefy weiners you could ever eat, let alone a public-sized skatepark in your back yard. dont forget the ability to quadwhip and 1080.

    go get laid instead of sitting infront of your computer bitching.

    saw that shit..its realy shit. gary should of won and im not even a fan…mike spinner could do good tricks but he always look stiff .

  • http://Website nicebra

    I think dhers, garrett, or that one 16 year old dude should get the win. when mike did the quadwhip he didn’t even land clean. everyone else did badass shit… spinner just seems like a douche sometimes… he likes to rub in the fame on everyone else. eh…. it was close..

  • http://Website Jeremy

    I dont favour any of these riders but you can sorta see why spinner one. he did a quad whip, a 1080 turndown and a tripple whip air and some other clean tricks. Garys run was good but i dont think it was good enough to win, but he should have at E least come 3rd or 4th. you can obliviously see that the judges look for bangers and tricks that know1 else is doing. someone mentioned that he did a tripple whip air and landed on the cranks. i dont think it is even possible not to land on the cranks, because the bike is spinning so fast theres no way you can catch it perfect. Mark webb done an amazing run, 360 to decade, 900, underflip, 270 bar to turndown and probabaly one of the cleanest and stylish riders in the competition. also pat casey did some sick, tricks and he was incredibly smooth.

    at the end of the day over the two runs people did i think the rankings should have looked like this

    1st Mark Webb
    2nd Pat Casey
    3rd Daniel Dhers
    4th Gary Young
    5th Mike spinner/ Garrett Reynolds
    etc…
