Take care of yourself Sam, I watch you for your personality as well as your skill. I think you made the right decision, you don't want to force it and end up out for a while.

So sorry bro. That sucks. I think that you made the right decision.

Get well soon mate! You'll defs comeback stronger! 🤙🏼

I was there and videoed the first 3 features. I heard the announcer and everyone getting loud when the crash happened and I get there within 2 minutes and this guy is signing everything for all the kids around! What an absolute legend, was awesome to watch you in person!

"I did make into the finals but i gave my spot up to one of the other rider which hopefully he can do better than me", what a word, this is why you're loved.

In the couple of years I've been watching you I think that's the hardest crash you've had, considering all the stuff you pull off! Looking forward to seeing the rest of the trip!

Health over wealth mate, you hit the floor so hard 😬 The fact you qualified for crankworx final with just your first run after such a long break from comps is sick!

The fact that you can hear how sad Sam is for not being able to compete in the finals even on video really shows how disappointed he was… 😞

Sam you are a huge motivation to so many people. You make me want to ride every day!! I am happy to see it was not a serious injury. I am waiting for the next video and the great things you bring to the Internet. Cheers to you for being such an inspiration.

I'd send the clip of you falling off to your local council and be like "This is why I need my own training grounds, To practice these tricks and stop myself from eating dirt" Hope you get better soon, Love the energy you have after every crash!

Steady on young fella, I'm 62 so can say that, you did a good thing there, letting someone go up to the final rather than you potentially hurting yourself more. Way to go, what MTB's are about .. 😜

Yeah, getting towards the 50 number and those injuries just don't heal anymore. Spent my teens and early twenties riding when I shouldn't have and you pay the price later on in life.

So stoked to see you back in contests! Glad you're ok and good to go at the next one. 🤙' to the sky '

I wish you a speedy recovery. Accidents like these are part of this game, I guess, but you will come out of this even stronger. You are the best.

Glad you're on the mend! With Big White and a couple weeks in Whistler still to come it sounds like you made the right decision not to risk further injury. Rooting for ya! Thx for everything you do! If you're back in Western Canada next year I'll have to make the trip and check out a comp!

Its so amazing you came to ride at the mountain my boyfriend and I frequent every weekend! We decided to watch an hour of finals between riding on sunday, and you were there in the crowd! I couldnt believe it! The best part was I got to meet you in person and get a picture with you. That small moment will stand out in my memory as one of the best moments of my life. As someone whos only been riding for the last 2 years, watching your videos inspire me to constantly push myself and aim to do better. You are hands down my favorite rider, from your skill to the content you make to your down to earth personality! You never fail to amaze me by being able to do a flare on literally anything, especially at the pump track we ride on here in Vernon. I was so heart broken when I watched this because I could tell how let down you were at not being able to compete after placing for finals. But just know I was just as excited to see you there in the crowd as I would have been to see you ride! I hope your injury heals quickly and you can continue to kill it at riding, because I know you would have been on that podium and you deserved to be on it. You make every day epic for fans like me, dont let this small defeat keep you down. I know youll rise above it and come back better than ever!

Your channel continues to inspire old and young mate. Keep it up. Love to see you back in the comps.

Love watching you roll with the young bucks. The ground is definitely harder with some age. Awesome vids Mr!

What I really like about you Sam, il your constant smile, the way you see things positively no matter what. You’re an inspiration to me 🙏 take care mate

I was about to write the same kind of comment, Sam's mentality is great, always seeing the bright side, his hard but good decision about not forcing on his injury, also his behavior and kind acts regarding other riders. All these specificities makes me appreciate what he is and what he does. Take care y'all ✌️

I’m glad you weren’t seriously injured but more so glad you said no and didn’t risk injuring yourself more dude. Imo , you are one hell of a rider and considering you’ve barely rode this course you did phenomenal. It’s not just about who’s the most skilled, personality matters a lot too. And you are such a awesome funny dude , so positive and motivating. Please for the love of god be careful and take good care of yourself Sam. Much love , respect and kindness from Niagara Falls, Ontario

Listen Sam, you're still da best, man! I mean that sincerely. Back when i used to do all the crazy stuff on my bike slopestyle wasn't even a thing yet, lol. U just had bearclaw switching over from bmx and doing stuff like flat drop 360s. Just thank your lucky stars that you've been able to do all that you have and pray that u never have a major low back injury because they can be absolutely career ending. You're starting to fill that old veteran spot like Ryan nyquist did a few yrs ago when he switched over briefly to mtb where u are always going to get the roar of the crowd and be a fan favorite anytime u make the finals regardless of the finish. I've always been a fan since u first burst on the tour as a young bright eyed bushy tailed buck all those years ago and you've already reached the summit, man. Not that many people can say they ever had a 1st place finish at a major fmb event much less no. 1 for the season. Keep your head up, mate and keep on shredding. You're an inspiration to us old geezers and more importantly to the young kiddos on the come up that keep pushing and progressing the sport

Heal up brother!, glad you didnt ride on a hurting hand!

Get well Sam! Took it like a champ!

Excitement, Fun and Disappointment! NIce one mate! Sorry about the crash but looks like you're on your way forward again - keep up the good humour! Good luck.

Always love your comp vlogs Sam. Such a great insight into behind the scenes and just a different perspective from your other adventures (of which are also awesome). Keep shredding it mate 👊

When I learned to scuba dive, there was an expression (something like): it’s better to quit a dive and dive another day. I guess it boils down to something on lines of: however much you want to do something, if it doesn’t feel right, then you should accept that and move on to the next thing. We’d have all loved to have seen you take a podium, but health is much more important - be well and stay safe… we’re rooting for you!

That was awesome dude! Crashing defo gets more painful in your 30s and that was a big old hit. Spare a thought for us who are about about to hit 40 😂. Pleased you're back riding a mere. few days later

Glad to see the video finish with you almost ready to get back at it! Enjoyed your content for years, the contest action is epic! Love watching you pull big tricks with the young guns, we will see you back on the podium soon!

I got so anxious watching this !! Great edit man !!!

Your insane sam! Dont let the crash put you off !!

Missed qualies and was wondering why I didn't see you in the finals. Frustrating! Gasped audibly when I saw Marcell go down, glad both of you are okay and stoked to see you throw down at Big White!

Hi Sam it's good you listened to your body after such a crash, it wouldn't have been wise to carry on with such pain. I wish you a speedy recovery! I enjoy watching your antics on your bikes and with great personality too, it is fun to watch you!

I’m 24 and because of you I am getting my first jump bike after learning it’s possible to shred a cheap bike. Big props for making it to the finals and I look forward to what you come up with next 👏👏👏

Get well soon Sam. You´re the greatest Rider for me.

Sorry you crashed. You made the right decision though. Getting hurt and sitting out is never fun but it's better than risking getting even more hurt. At least this way there will be future contests. Also getting old is hell 😂

Healing vibes Pilgs! Keep ya head up! You'll def smash the next one🤙

Hey Sam you're an absolute legend mate and you've set a good example to everyone that even some of the very best take falls and when they do even they know it would only end up worse if they decided to continue not in their best form, well done mate heal up soon brother 👍

Since you're out there for a month, you should visit north Idaho, and go have some fun with the guys at Grind Hard Plumbing Company! Take it easy with the wrist, dude. I bet they have some vehicles that will be easy on your wrist, while still crazy fun!!! THEY INVENTED THE HIGH HORSEPOWER ADULT POWER WHEELS. 😎

That crash was insane and you got up and muttered " OW " and walked away like a BOSS....! I hope it doesn't take you to long to recover, keep up the good work Sam

You put absolutely everything into every run you do. That’s the dream dude! You’re living it. Your body will repair, you will be back on it before you know it!

I'm so glad I found this channel it really cheers me up, had some tough times this year but this video remind me of going for a ride with the boys

Always quality in your vids even when you crash... it takes big balls to send it like you do sir, much respect to you ...one of the best channels on the tube imho

Sam, I just want to say I'm glad you didn't try to ride. No reason to make it worse. I'm sure it was tough for you. Thank you for sharing this with us. Best wishes!

Love how positive you are, such fun videos to watch.

WOAHHHH!! I hope you have a speedy recovery man i love ur videos!

Love your vids Sam, you made the best decision dude, you don't want to truly mess yourself up....just miss this competition and you can do the next one...better than hurting yourself in such a way that you can't compete ever again.

hope you heal quick bro, love to see your vlogs out in my neck of the woods!

Sam, awesome video! Sorry you missed running in the finals. Man, you guys are so talented and so freaking crazy! I was pumped just watching! Glad you are healing up and I hope you don't have any long term pain from that nasty crash.

You know it's always a possibility. And you continue to push yourself. I hope you're okay. You will comeback even better! And we're all here for you Sam!

Dude, anyone that follows your channel knows you are a timeless legend 🏆 . Ready for a shreddie, flipping and spinning everything you see 🤘. Heal up friend, looking forward to whatever you're doing next. TO THE SKY!

Sam you're a mad dog and it's awesome to see you getting back into comps. Heal up and know that there's heaps of folks here in Australia who love what you're about

I watch your vids with my 2 boys. Your example of putting health first is appreciated. Best wishes for a complete recovery.

Glad you didn't get to messed up! Great video as always sam!

Epic! As usual, Sam. Great video.

So cool to see you in my home country Sam! Stay safe out there and love seeing all the sick tricks! I’m not much for seeing the fans though. 😢 I’m sure some people get some sadistic pleasure out of watching them, but I like seeing you land those awesome tricks.

That was far from disappointing!! You’re clearly up there with the young guns, and absolutely smashing it. Fearless. I’m actually so insanely ecstatic to see what you can pull of in the next few weeks, months and years coming! 👀🔥🔥🤘

Love watching your videos and definitely inspiring to get on my bike more and out to the parks.

sam ur alrdy a living legend that dont have to proove anything, we still love your videos, cheers

Been watching pilgrim for years now and this is the first time I’ve ever seen him crash hard. The amount of crazy stuff this guy has done and got away with he is very lucky to have had so little crashes yet so unlucky to crash at such an event. Love your videos Sam hope you feel better soon man🙌

glad youre feeling better! good luck at the next stop!

Thanks for making the right decision.. better to be safe in the long term, cant imagine how anyone can handle those huge jumps with an injured wrist.. good luck in your next comp

You made the right call man! Looking forward to more videos!

You're a Monster Sam! And Monster even got injured! But you will be healed in no time and again going be doing this amazing videos that give to the bike enjoyment at the best!

You 100% made the right call! Stoked to hear that you're already feeling better!

Take it easy man, no need to better your last efforts. I will watch you do pretty much anything, you're a real funny bastard with a load of cool added. Total respect, anything you can do shits all over what I can do! Heal fast 😎👍

Gutted for you dude. It’s so awesome seeing you at big comps again, hopefully it won’t be putting you off entering more in the future. Heal fast, heal strong and on to the next one man.🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

I think you made the right decision Sam. Glad you're okay and it's not severe injury! My wrist is still healing from an accident at the bike park 4 weeks ago so I kind of get it!

Hi Sam good work again with the video, massive bummer you crashed and even worse injured yourself! Hope it’s a quick fix and your sending to the sky again soon! Take care pal and keep sending it hard!!!

Getting through that is such a challenge you are a very strong and wise man. Well done

hope you heal up well, and enjoy your trip thru Beautiful British Columbia

You have qualified, congrats so much for that! You are one of the best. Feel sorry for that crash, but never mind next time will be better, at least you know that you are able to qualify. Take care bro

Sam, you're the man. Love your attitude!

Glad your ok Sam!!! Forearms of STEEL!!!

Hey Sam you made the Right call! hope to speedy recovery!

Sorry to see that crash. Glad to see that you're ok and able to shred again. It can definitely take it out of you for sure. Looking forward to more.

Holy crap, the number of double and triple moves in that compilation! The youths are mental.

This sucked, but it's so epic to see you shredding comps again! Should have just cracked a monny 🤯 Much respect Sam

Good call, Sam. You're an absolute legend!

Awesome stuff, again.

Nice work pilgs you certainly bailed on that good work for looking after yourself,live to fight another day!!..

Get well soon Sam. Glad to hear you’re feeling better already. Great content as usual.

Sorry you got hurt and I hope you heal quickly. Even in bad moments like these you once again demonstrate your great personality by knowing when to stop, I'm glad you didn't do the final regarding this injury and can't wait for the new video. (Btw, I already received my new pilgrips and I enjoy the feel)🤙

Really sucks about the injury Sam and obviously I wish you were able to go to the finals however I really enjoyed the storytelling and being there with you through difficult moments after the crash. It felt like we were there with ya! Keep it epic dude.

Get well soon! You bring smiles regardless if you’re on a bike or not.

We love you Sam! You'll be back! What a legend!
