What was the worst track you had to ride in 2014 in your opinion? Vilma Rimsaite: It must be Zolder. The jumps were too big, the track didn’t have the flow, the starting hill was too bumpy, it was too early in the year to race on such tracks, etc. All in all it was disappointing to race such track, especially having that disappointing attitude from the UCI and EUC.
Who did the raddest move on the track in 2014?
Vilma Rimsaite: hmmm… well I did one of those moves at the Euro League round in Holland this year. I made a move in the final from far outside last to a 2nd place and kept it till the finish line! :)
Which rider did the nastiest move in 2014?
Vilma Rimsaite: There were some very crazy and I can say stupid moves at the worlds this year! Especially in EM class and especially on that 2nd turn. Like Damien Godet trying to cut Liam off and both ending in a crash in the 1/8 final ( or was it 1/4 ? ) Was so unnecessary to do so!
Who's bike looked like a piece of crap?
Who had the best looking bike on the track this year?
Vilma Rimsaite: Of course it has to be CRUPI TEAM!! ;)
What jump was sketchy?
Vilma Rimsaite: Oh… too many to mention for me! :D I guess quite a few in Zolder as I mentioned before and that new 1st hill at the World Cup in Santiago del Estero in Argentina was weird! Many girls crashed on it!
Which jump in particular did you like to hit this year?
Vilma Rimsaite: That first one at the World Cup in Berlin! It definitely was something new, original and interesting! :)
Who is the stiffest jumper on the circuit?
Vilma Rimsaite: As you all know i’m pretty stiff! :) There has to be some stiffer jumpers than me though, no???Who's the best jumper out there?
Vilma Rimsaite: Steven Cisar or Jarred Garcia in Men’s class and Mariana Pajon or Alise Post in Women’s.
Who's got serious bike control skills?
Vilma Rimsaite: Steven Cisar!
Who's got just power and little bike handling skills?
Vilma Rimsaite: Me :D
What race this year had the best facilities?
Vilma Rimsaite: Santiago del Estero was very well organized! I mean it’s pretty poor but they do try to do their best and it’s obvious! I guess Zolder also had it all, or Berlin.
Who do you think will win the overall UCI BMX SX World Cup?
Vilma Rimsaite: Mariana and Liam? Not sure who’s leading now.
Thanks to?
Vilma Rimsaite: A BIG thanks to Crupi Europe this year and my French Club Pays De La Loire. Also thanks to Answer, Friends, fans, my coach PH, family, supporters who are there for me through thick and thin, all the other great people I meet in my life because of BMX. Oh, a big thanks to Lithuanian Olympic Center, Lithuanina Olympic Committeeand my city Siauliai also.
