      Came here to say this. Needs a pause on Amaury at each split (or every time it hits out of sync by over a second) to give context again. As soon as it is more than a second out it is impossible to appreciate what is going on with the side by side

    Nice one GoPro. This is great. Reminds me of the side by side comparison for pole position on the Formula One channel. For the future, perhaps you could include a continuous graphic that shows how the riders gain and or fall back against each other throughout the run?

    • @mbgerozaga
      @mbgerozaga 15 дней назад +1

      He gained 1s on split 1 on those berms. He's turning much quicker on than dak. Dak seems to be leaving he's rear behind on the berms.
      Amauey On 1:40 gained a lot more coz of his fast entry and exit speed while the line on dak is significantly slow.

    • @ostankovalex1176
      @ostankovalex1176 15 дней назад +1

      @@mbgerozaga i think it's not about the rear. From my perspective, Amaury had much smoother lines which allowed him to maintain speed. Some lines Dak took were very interesting and creative. But I feel like there are lots of places where he turns the front wheel to hard. Amaury had just smoother lines which didn't make him get stuck and lose speed. Just check the first berm where Amaury got ahead
      What I mean is the way Amaury connected pieces together was just smoother and faster because of that.

    • @mbgerozaga
      @mbgerozaga 15 дней назад

  • @tonychristie2450
    @tonychristie2450 15 дней назад

    Looks to me like Amaury used more of the edges of the track to maintain momentum. It allowed him to skip or hop over obstacles that would slow him down. It’s crazy, when I watched Dak’s run I thought that’s gonna be tough to beat. And it was. Then Amaury absolutely smashed it through use of slightly different lines. The skill level of these riders is incredible.

    At 0:12 they are dead even, yet 4 seconds later Amaury is almost a full bike length ahead at 0:16 & 2 full bike lengths at 0:22 just b/c Amaury taps that little rock and Dak goes a foot to it's left to set up that last turn in the open.

      We would love to. It's dependent on which riders want to wear the cameras as it is riders choice and then depends where they place. Any time it all aligns then we will definitely run it for sure because it is rad to see. We had one with Nina Hoffman and Vali Holl that was very close and you could see the back and forth the entire run which was great.

      @TeddyParker 16 дней назад +2

      may be the footage color messin with ya. dak went earlier due to a bad semis and likely had a wetter course. but by small margins. it didnt quite rain during the race but it misted all day. the sun properly broke out right before Amaury dropped in. I'd argue nobody got a super different track. but as last to drop it would have been most dry for Amaury.

    • @butchgreene
      @butchgreene 16 дней назад +1

      @@TeddyParker per multiple people up top and trackside for both runs, track was better during Amaury's run. It was also 1 hour & 2 minutes later in the day. Trees & grass get to suck up the evening rain as the day progresses. Even track, Amaury still wins. Those 2 wide lines up top after already being 2 bikes lengths ahead at 0:22 seconds in (Pierron is a powerful sprinter) would have been the difference on an identical track.

  • @BobbieRingo-qf8qu
    @BobbieRingo-qf8qu 16 дней назад

    Well DUH. Amaury has a lower body profile and is more aero and is saving seconds with drag. Combine that with a couple better lines and you get 5 seconds. High rise bars aren't aero.

    • @lightningshredder5605
      @lightningshredder5605 16 дней назад

      I think also due to tyre drag. A longer lower more forward position places less weight on the rear wheel which in turn makes the bike roll faster and the suspension work smoother.
