You’ll be back stronger than ever! Kudos for your courage all week and giving back so much to your fans. Enjoy a well deserved break BK! Thanks for all the great footage all season long.
Same here. Even though T Vernon is a local boy (awesome run especially as a privateer), BK is synonymous with this race. After the slam he took in practice as well. Welled up watching it live when he went over the bars
FWIW, Bernard, the thing I'll take away from this race was the amazing generosity you showed throughout, encouraging and giving advice to other riders, always the most enthusiastic one in congratulating them on jobs well done. Jono Jones was right when he told you you're a living legend.
Don't get too down BK, you showed your grit and skill this weekend like no other. BK at Hardline 2022 will go down as one of the most inspirational Rocky type shit in mountain biking ever. Next season will be your best yet, cheers bro
Dude all 3 of those podium spots were partly down to the encouragement and support you gave out all week. Talking the guys through each feature and line choice and looking out for each other means more than the final results. YOU ALL won hardline by managing to even get through it alive. You made it out safe (despite your Hulk smash in practice) and you should be immensely proud of what you've all achieved this week. 👊😎🤘
I know you won't read this...You are a legend.! Look at your relationship with Gee, Dan, Rachel. Look at the people you surround yourself with. You are the Pinnacol of the sport, humanity, comradery, and the human experience. I can't wait to see what the next 5 to 10 years brings.!!! All I can say is WOW...Thank you sir.!!!
BK, this year you’ve inspired me to raise my game at 66yrs old. Now, thanks to you, I’m riding most of Revs and doing a decent job. This achievement is thanks to you, to the inspiration you are to us all. Your Pivot Team has performed at the highest levels in all disciplines this year, you have a World Champ now, a Hardline Hero (you) who all look up to, even GeeMan, and your success as an individual is recognised by your best results in your career. Not just a winner, but The Winner. Nobody has come near to matching your amazing stamp on the sport this year. Thank you!
Oh my ........... good on you BK for sharing the whole thing with us ...... warts and all ...... Some races are remembered for outright brilliance , not taking anything away from Jacksons ride this will always be remembered for the way you lead the charge testing those jumps, smashing quali with a broken hand and then crashing out as favourite in the final. The story of the 2022 Redbull Hardline has been defined by you, the fans favourite . Looking forward to the next 9 months of LSD vlogs and your journey back to the new format World Cup series. One last word ........ "thank you"
Absolutely GUTTED for you, clearly though you were hurting, and we all out here in tube-land wish you a safe and speedy recovery - thank you BK for bringing joy and happiness into all our MTB lives. Be wellererer!
Thanks for bringing us along all season! It has been amazing to watch. The solo sit down after it all still makes my chest hurt as the frustration was palpable. You are a Legend! Speedy recover to the hand!
Gutted brother. No one likes to see anyone go down. That would have been a epic race for the top spot. Everyone that took part in that race you all should be proud
What a week, big respect to you riders on hardline, yeah boy!, really feel the hurt after that smash going into the woods, pick yourself up & carry on BK, 🇬🇧👋😉👍🍺
I hope young people are watching this and seeing the lesson in your strength of character and persistence in the face of adversity. Thanks for a great WC season, your infectious personality and superb content. Cheers!
I fucking love you Bernard Kerr , the pedal away from the podium to sit by the stream got me in the feels. Gets shit when your so close but you know the speeds their , keep at it for next season and show everyone what your made of . GOAT.
There is nothing any of us can say to ease what you are feeling right now Bernard. Just know you have a loyal group of followers that feel like we are part of your family. In our hearts and minds you win with every LSD you put on RUclips. All of us believe in you and believe you are a winner no matter what the time displays or your position at the end of the day. You are a true hero to the sport you love so much and do so much to promote it. Heal up brother and take a well deserved vacay. Your hard work and dedication is not just an inspiration it’s also contagious. Prayers sent for a speedy recovery!
Dude, you should be super proud of yourself! Absolute inspiration to all of us . I’m sure you feel pretty crap right now but believe me, you are an absolute legend and will be back stronger.
The silent outro says it all, but your qualiy was the stuff of legends. You've won Hardline plenty, now get fit then get to training hard and get that WC win next year. You got this!
Total respect to you and your commitment to the Hardline, your cohorts and your hard work! Keep up your spirits and live to race the Hardline another day! You are the best! Kindly, Dennis
Keep your head up, BK! You had an amazing season and you’ll be back and better than ever next year. The fact that you and Gee sent those jumps first, your crash, qualifying first with your injuries-- LEGENDARY!
Thanks for keeping it reel and showing us the moments you feel down( sitting down at the end) we should all be aware that being a mtb dowhill racer is far from easy. still GUTTED for you my lad. Cheers for being ab inspiration to all of us mountainbikers. Next season is yours!!!!!
Gutted for you, mortals would have sacked it off after that first crash on Thursday but you came back kicking. Epic content in '22 looking forward to that World Cup win in '23!
For me, BK stands for British Knight! How you helped the others during training with tips and confidence to overcome the most difficult features, how you sacrificed yourself on the 90 feet double and immediately returned to enthusiastic commitment after your heavy crash. That is true greatness. The fastest time by far on the seeding run, despite your battered body, that's the indicator of your superior skill level. After the race I would have liked to take you in my arms and comfort you. But luckily Lada is by your side. Thank you Bernard for this great downhill season. Get back on your wheels quickly.
BK these comments just show you have an army of fans and truly deserve the success you have had in 2022. You are one of the very best role models in our sport and the LSDs are inspirational, both for the insane riding and your endless enthusiasm. The MTB scene needs you man, so rest up, look forward and be very proud of a frickin awesome year!!!
Fortune does not always favor the brave but do not let this weigh heavy on you for long. 👊 We all saw what stuff you're made of, not just this week but all season long and in fact for many years. I'm sure you'll come back swinging and flying next year, because thats who you are. And thank you for taking us along for the ride so far and hopefully much further!
Watched it live - was amazed that you managed to qualify first, and that's a mark of what a great competitor you are. Gutted for you, but you've proved throughout this (and every other time) that you're a class act, and you should be proud of what you've done and who you are. The most inspirational MTB rider I've ever seen, and your LSDs are a joy.
Hey man don't beat yourself up over this. You are a great rider and you have a whole community of people behind you that support you even through a loss. I truly love the continued sportsmanship you show your competitors in and out of competition.
I don't think there's anyone on here that wasn't gutted for you, you worked so hard and you can see it in everyone's faces at the end, BUT, you are a living legend for not only getting up from that crash, but seeding first and riding at all with that hand. Massive respect, get that scaphoid sorted and thanks again for another amazing year of LSD's, they really make the season so much more enjoyable, give Lada Man a pat from me 👍💪🤘
Big respect Mr Kerr, I still don't know how you made it to the start gate after that crash. You are an inspiration to us all. keep up the good work and thank you for bringing us all along through to good times and the bad. cheers
Honestly ... sending it first over both gaps ... racing after that crash ... to even consider winning is Legendary ... you had the line and the commitment ... YOU ARE THE MVP for this event seriously! Keep those positive vibes / commentary and sick riding in the forefront. Thank you BK!
That was heartbreaking... But you are still the king of the Hardline. Get healthy, rest and prepare for next year. A win at the world Cup is awaiting you. Much love man.
Hey, after these 3 days, definitely you are the man. Nothing to be disappointed and you know. Here you paved the road for all the racers, trying first the monster jump, realising they had to adjust it. Every day you had a word for each rider, encouraging them and giving tnem the best advices. I appreciated especially so much what you've done with Gee, giving him so much confidence after what he's been through. And after all with almost no practice you were even first to qualify. Extreme respect for you mate, and for everything you share with us, good or bad. I think this week should count for you like a winning race, really!!
Massive props for getting back on the bike after that insane crash mate and then qualifying fastest in my book that’s a win itself. Never giving up is the attitude of a winner.
Don't be too disheartened BernArdline. You've saved a few lives at this one! Sort ya hand out and rest a bit. Proper gutted for you but will be behind you and the team all the way next season too. Ladaman will cheer you up. Great season , great vids and will be even better next year xx
To even be in the start gate after that huge slam was amazing. The heart and guts you bring to downhill is truly an inspiration. Cannot wait to see you send it in person again at the ‘Shoe in 2023 sportsfans!!!!
You're a true gladiator Bernard. Even after a huge slam it wasn't enough just to make it down. You still wanted to win. You did win - the hearts and minds award. I hope you heal quickly fella.
😱 OMG. The race was truly yours following qualifying. We’re all so gutted for you, as you truly deserved it. It’s been a hard but unbelievably good season. The humility and support you offer fellow riders is without doubt inspirational and selfless. I’m hoping someone close and show you the love and compassion we your fans all feel, but more so for you. These down days must rip you to pieces. Take time reset and be the champ you truly are. Respect and admiration, take it all you deserve. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
You are da' man! First of all, you're an ass kickin' rider who even with a broken hand seeded 1st. More important, you helped all the other riders get through, and that really counts. Jono said it, you're a living legend. Well done, you'll be back.
Seeing you go down live was the most gutted I've felt for any rider on race day. Seeing you search out a quiet place away from people just doubled that feeling. My wife was close to tears. Big Love BK.....from everyone watching. ❤️🩹❤️🩹❤️🩹
I can't believe after such a hard hit all you utter is a calm "ffs" and then still throw down a run us mere mortals could only dream of. Sending you some healing vibes bro!
Mad props for even continuing to ride after that massive crash the other day. While this isn't a great way to end a racing season you can certainly turn it into motivation for next season.
Win or learn BK this sports fan rides with u to the end!! May not hav won the race but u were the big winner this week lad! The way u led,motivated,inspired the other riders with your advice n fearlessness was truly inspirational!.. Rest up my friend and enjoy the break cos u more than deserve it!!!
You're still the Hardline MVP, this year was just not meant to be. Well done on still riding after that insane crash, let alone posting the top quali time!
A tough day at the office BK….it doesn’t always work out. You’ve been chargin hard on many fronts the whole season and yourself and the team have enjoyed so much success. Journeys just beginning! Reflect and recuperate. Much love man🤘🏾🤜🏾
This was a superb insight in to what is asked of you as a rider. Shame how it ended after the year you've had and the generosity you shared with everyone at hardline. Try not to feel too down. You are still a legend
You've had a great year Bernie. Don't beat yourself up. That first berm blowing out probably didn't help your concentration.. Get rested and come back fighting for 2023. Enjoy your rest. 👍👏👏🔥🔥
Man, you are one of the most inspiring riders/ athletes / human beings ever. Your enthusiasm and vibe is just epic, and I felt heartbroken seeing that ending where you went to sit down. You had a hell of a year, and for what it’s worth, one hell of a week there at HL where you shared your positivity, encouragement and balls to the wall energy non stop. To even get on a bike and run that track again after the big crash was wild to see, I wish it could have gone your way today. Rocky vibes. Absolute legend mate, heal up and look forward to the next season 💪🏻🤘🏻
Unlucky BK. proper warrior going for it with your hand injury. Come back stronger. Young Jackson smashed it. credit to all the riders unbelievable event.
A bit of a heartbreaker really, feel gutted for you. But you're an absolute legend, inspiring everybody else to do their best! You're the people's champ my man!
Gutted for you! You were on fire and getting up and riding after that massive hit on the jump, wow, such respect for you and the strength of your mind and body! You’ll be back faster and stronger next season and get your hardline crown back!
That was immensely courageous and you showed such leadership and grit throughout the Hardline - those qualities and that respect are harder earned even than a win. Bravo 🫡
Bad luck Bernard, you had an amazing year and everyone is beyond proud of your success. You will be back stronger next year, and I cant wait to watch you compete again. Heal up soon Champ.
Finding a quiet place and sinking to the ground. Love this content @bk showing the ups and downs of these events. Thanks for not editing and showing the truth. It sucks you crashed, but so many positives from the weekend and the year. You’re an inspiration
Gutted for you dude, I have no idea how you even got up after the crash on Thursday not to mention the fact you still raced after it. A hard week after a great season. Go get some rest and heal up, you’ve definitely earned it. Thanks for all the entertainment this year. Bring on 2023! 🤘🤘🤘
Dude, the fairytale of qualifying so fast even with the messed up crash, was inspiration enough. So proud of you dude, I had the feels big time when you crashed. Here’s the prediction. BK will go down in history by become the winningest rider ever in Red Bull Hardline. No one can match you bro, so the next 5 years is about making history. 👊👊👊👊
Don't beat yourself up over it, you've had an amazing year! Thanks for bringing us along for the journey, it's really been great to watch the progression.
You are still king of the hill in my books! Incredible rider and thanks for letting us follow what you do! You will be back and win it all next year🤯🤜😎
Dude you were so bunched from that heavy crash, lucky to even race. You’re still the 👑 of Hardline and your fans are still stoked for you and can’t wait for all the off-season LSD’s 🤘
Bernard you got the heart of a champion! Somebody had to put their ass on the line for this event to even happen and you stepped up big time. This event is so menacing it brings you guys together in a way that no other event can. But that doesn’t change the fact that somebody has to face the music first. That man was you! Let’s hope that Scaphoid bone has a vertical fracture so you can heal up quicker.
Bernard I'm actually in tears for you brother. You bring the enthusiasm and hype to all your videos and you positively radiate good vibes. But that was cruel, I really really do feel for you. Sending you big hugs and big love, and we all know BK will be back stronger than ever!! Long live the King!! (Of hardline)
Felt so bad. No one can say you didn't give ot your best. Gee wiping the mud off the lens spoke volumes about the whole thing. As always I respect your hard work and honesty of showing everything. The good and bad. Respect BK. It's been a stellar season. Look forward to the next one (and off season when you are up for it). Kia kaha!
So gutted you crashed in the finals on the last run but glad you walked away from it . Been a tough 4 days, you pushed thru after your huge crash. Next season you'll be back on top BK !!! 🤘💪🥇
Thanks for putting this out for us sports fans. It wouldn’t have been easy to have to relive it. Soak it up and let it feed the hunger for next year! 🤘🏼
This is your Sam Hill Val Di Sole 2008. A man we knew could win and a caught out by a little mistake and I was gutted for ya. But Sam Hill won the overall in 2009 and he became one of the Goats. You’ve been on form all fucking year and next year is going to be insane for you brother, you got this
Understandably disapointed. Still, what you did is amazing. 1st in quali after huge crash! Have a good off season. Your fans can't wait to see you next season!
For me, dear Bernard, you belong to the 5 best in the world which also proves the result of the classifications. It is quite normal that after a big fall that you are not in good shape to tackle the final, especially if a hand injury is troublesome. That said, I know you will come together and come back stronger than ever. Talent doesn't disappear with a fall, it's confidence that you lose. It is this confidence that must be rebuilt by relying on your talent. I'm sure you will do it and succeed. It may not matter, but I'm with you.
That is heartbreaking. I would have done exactly the same thing after that. Find a patch of grass with no people and collapse. You had put so much effort into this event on all fronts. You're support for other riders was incredible. You have the speed man. It's there. And you have the heart. Go into next year with that. Jackson might have won but you were the man this week. A true leader.
You should be a film-maker when you retire from MTB! That scene after the finish when you rode off to a quiet corner as Elliot was starting his interview with Jackson in the background was poetic!
You’ll be back stronger than ever! Kudos for your courage all week and giving back so much to your fans. Enjoy a well deserved break BK! Thanks for all the great footage all season long.
well said
Dang sitting down at the end had me in my feels, was routing for you hard
yeah me too 🫤
I think that goes for everyone 😢
Same here. Even though T Vernon is a local boy (awesome run especially as a privateer), BK is synonymous with this race. After the slam he took in practice as well. Welled up watching it live when he went over the bars
Man needed a minute away from everyone :/ gutted for him but serious respect sending it with a broken wrist/ thumb
Felt the frustation and sadness mate, progresing and working all year long to this race, must be fucked up
FWIW, Bernard, the thing I'll take away from this race was the amazing generosity you showed throughout, encouraging and giving advice to other riders, always the most enthusiastic one in congratulating them on jobs well done. Jono Jones was right when he told you you're a living legend.
Well said. Hear! Hear!
Don't get too down BK, you showed your grit and skill this weekend like no other. BK at Hardline 2022 will go down as one of the most inspirational Rocky type shit in mountain biking ever. Next season will be your best yet, cheers bro
Dude all 3 of those podium spots were partly down to the encouragement and support you gave out all week. Talking the guys through each feature and line choice and looking out for each other means more than the final results. YOU ALL won hardline by managing to even get through it alive. You made it out safe (despite your Hulk smash in practice) and you should be immensely proud of what you've all achieved this week.
👊😎🤘
I know you won't read this...You are a legend.! Look at your relationship with Gee, Dan, Rachel. Look at the people you surround yourself with. You are the Pinnacol of the sport, humanity, comradery, and the human experience. I can't wait to see what the next 5 to 10 years brings.!!! All I can say is WOW...Thank you sir.!!!
Pretty well said! Same feelings here.
BK, this year you’ve inspired me to raise my game at 66yrs old. Now, thanks to you, I’m riding most of Revs and doing a decent job. This achievement is thanks to you, to the inspiration you are to us all.

Not just a winner, but The Winner. Nobody has come near to matching your amazing stamp on the sport this year. Thank you!
that end bit broke my heart, you will be back next year mate
gutted for you, you had the speed and balls all year long. Keep this happy mindset for next year!
Unlucky Bernard, props for leaving in the part where you find a quiet place to sit. I bet you did not feel good right then!
I know you feel a bit deflated atm but you have been dominating it and should be so proud of yourself and your team 💜💙💜
Oh my ........... good on you BK for sharing the whole thing with us ...... warts and all ......

What a week, big respect to you riders on hardline, yeah boy!, really feel the hurt after that smash going into the woods, pick yourself up & carry on BK, 🇬🇧👋😉👍🍺
I hope young people are watching this and seeing the lesson in your strength of character and persistence in the face of adversity. Thanks for a great WC season, your infectious personality and superb content. Cheers!
I fucking love you Bernard Kerr , the pedal away from the podium to sit by the stream got me in the feels.
Gets shit when your so close but you know the speeds their , keep at it for next season and show everyone what your made of .
GOAT.
There is nothing any of us can say to ease what you are feeling right now Bernard. Just know you have a loyal group of followers that feel like we are part of your family. In our hearts and minds you win with every LSD you put on RUclips. All of us believe in you and believe you are a winner no matter what the time displays or your position at the end of the day. You are a true hero to the sport you love so much and do so much to promote it. Heal up brother and take a well deserved vacay. Your hard work and dedication is not just an inspiration it’s also contagious. Prayers sent for a speedy recovery!
You represent all that can be good In sports. Win or not, you give it your all and respect others. We need more Bernards.
Gutted for you,still the boss of Hardline though and huge respect for carrying on the week after the hugey on the guinea pig test run.
I’m gutted for you Bernard. So sad. Winning qualy after your huge crash, it’s impressive. Forget this final and be proud of your year
Dude, you should be super proud of yourself! Absolute inspiration to all of us . I’m sure you feel pretty crap right now but believe me, you are an absolute legend and will be back stronger.
The silent outro says it all, but your qualiy was the stuff of legends. You've won Hardline plenty, now get fit then get to training hard and get that WC win next year. You got this!

So gutted for you. That rock has your number. Looks super tech to actually hit fast. Still an absolute legend for even giving it a go this weekend
Thanks for keeping it reel and showing us the moments you feel down( sitting down at the end) we should all be aware that being a mtb dowhill racer is far from easy.
still GUTTED for you my lad. Cheers for being ab inspiration to all of us mountainbikers. Next season is yours!!!!!
Gutted for you, mortals would have sacked it off after that first crash on Thursday but you came back kicking. Epic content in '22 looking forward to that World Cup win in '23!

The most inspirational MTB rider I've ever seen, and your LSDs are a joy.
Your crazy for even riding and having won qualifying I don't think you have anything to be gutted about after that crash, you'll get them next time BK
Hey man don't beat yourself up over this. You are a great rider and you have a whole community of people behind you that support you even through a loss. I truly love the continued sportsmanship you show your competitors in and out of competition.
The fact that you came back from that hugey and qualified fastest is all anyone needs to know mate. Nothing but well earned respect.
I don't think there's anyone on here that wasn't gutted for you, you worked so hard and you can see it in everyone's faces at the end, BUT, you are a living legend for not only getting up from that crash, but seeding first and riding at all with that hand. Massive respect, get that scaphoid sorted and thanks again for another amazing year of LSD's, they really make the season so much more enjoyable, give Lada Man a pat from me 👍💪🤘
Gutted for you buddy but you will come back stronger and faster stay safe big love to you Ladda man and the rest of the team
Oh boy, head up, next year will be yours again! Amazing season in the World Cup, love your attitude, keep on staying true!
I think your enthusiasm and energy really spurred the riders' on to perform. Props for that and I'm sorry it didn't happen this year
Lotta mutual respect between BK and Gee. Pair of legends.
Hell of a season mate! Never never walk with your head hung low you are one of the best DH riders out there ( literally top 5)
Big respect Mr Kerr, I still don't know how you made it to the start gate after that crash. You are an inspiration to us all. keep up the good work and thank you for bringing us all along through to good times and the bad. cheers
Honestly ... sending it first over both gaps ... racing after that crash ... to even consider winning is Legendary ... you had the line and the commitment ... YOU ARE THE MVP for this event seriously! Keep those positive vibes / commentary and sick riding in the forefront. Thank you BK!
That was heartbreaking... But you are still the king of the Hardline. Get healthy, rest and prepare for next year. A win at the world Cup is awaiting you. Much love man.

You're an inspiration BK. Been watching you all season with my son who wants to be just like you when he grows up. Legend 👍🏻
Massive props for getting back on the bike after that insane crash mate and then qualifying fastest in my book that’s a win itself.
Never giving up is the attitude of a winner.
Don't be too disheartened BernArdline. You've saved a few lives at this one! Sort ya hand out and rest a bit. Proper gutted for you but will be behind you and the team all the way next season too. Ladaman will cheer you up. Great season , great vids and will be even better next year xx
Respect mate, you still came down for fans, you’re been a threat this year, keep grinding my friends 👍👍
To even be in the start gate after that huge slam was amazing. The heart and guts you bring to downhill is truly an inspiration. Cannot wait to see you send it in person again at the ‘Shoe in 2023 sportsfans!!!!
You're a true gladiator Bernard. Even after a huge slam it wasn't enough just to make it down. You still wanted to win. You did win - the hearts and minds award. I hope you heal quickly fella.
When you came down to the finish, I got all the feels. You've had an amazing season and I can't wait to see what you do next year. Keep at it dude 💪
😱 OMG.
The race was truly yours following qualifying.
We’re all so gutted for you, as you truly deserved it.
It’s been a hard but unbelievably good season.
The humility and support you offer fellow riders is without doubt inspirational and selfless.
I’m hoping someone close and show you the love and compassion we your fans all feel, but more so for you. These down days must rip you to pieces. Take time reset and be the champ you truly are.
Respect and admiration, take it all you deserve. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
You are da' man! First of all, you're an ass kickin' rider who even with a broken hand seeded 1st. More important, you helped all the other riders get through, and that really counts. Jono said it, you're a living legend. Well done, you'll be back.
BK you were an all star all weekend.You will come back on fire in 2023! All the best mate! And would love to see how you train in the off season!
Seeing you go down live was the most gutted I've felt for any rider on race day. Seeing you search out a quiet place away from people just doubled that feeling. My wife was close to tears.
Big Love BK.....from everyone watching.
❤️🩹❤️🩹❤️🩹
I can't believe after such a hard hit all you utter is a calm "ffs" and then still throw down a run us mere mortals could only dream of.
Sending you some healing vibes bro!
Gutted for you BK . You have been brilliant this season and the LSD have been amazing. Rest up and look forward to next season. Cheers 👍
Mad props for even continuing to ride after that massive crash the other day. While this isn't a great way to end a racing season you can certainly turn it into motivation for next season.
Win or learn BK this sports fan rides with u to the end!! May not hav won the race but u were the big winner this week lad! The way u led,motivated,inspired the other riders with your advice n fearlessness was truly inspirational!.. Rest up my friend and enjoy the break cos u more than deserve it!!!
Thanks for the best experience of the Hardline LS. Always racing on the limit. Deserving of a beer and and a party and a long lie down!
You're still the Hardline MVP, this year was just not meant to be. Well done on still riding after that insane crash, let alone posting the top quali time!
To echo what’s already been said, gutted for you. But to compete after that bad crash shows what grit and determination you have
Hope you're not too sad BK. You are a very inspiring person and I hope you'll can take your revenge on the next RedBull hardline 💪
A tough day at the office BK….it doesn’t always work out.
You’ve been chargin hard on many fronts the whole season and
yourself and the team have enjoyed so much success.
Journeys just beginning!
Reflect and recuperate.
Much love man🤘🏾🤜🏾
This was a superb insight in to what is asked of you as a rider. Shame how it ended after the year you've had and the generosity you shared with everyone at hardline. Try not to feel too down. You are still a legend
Gutted for you mate. Your practice run was IN-SANE! You def had the speed for a win. Stoked to watch you race in 2023!
You've had a great year Bernie. Don't beat yourself up. That first berm blowing out probably didn't help your concentration.. Get rested and come back fighting for 2023. Enjoy your rest. 👍👏👏🔥🔥
Man, you are one of the most inspiring riders/ athletes / human beings ever. Your enthusiasm and vibe is just epic, and I felt heartbroken seeing that ending where you went to sit down. You had a hell of a year, and for what it’s worth, one hell of a week there at HL where you shared your positivity, encouragement and balls to the wall energy non stop. To even get on a bike and run that track again after the big crash was wild to see, I wish it could have gone your way today. Rocky vibes. Absolute legend mate, heal up and look forward to the next season 💪🏻🤘🏻
So gutted for you mate was rooting for you fter that gnarly crash. looking forward to the next race
Unlucky BK. proper warrior going for it with your hand injury. Come back stronger. Young Jackson smashed it. credit to all the riders unbelievable event.
Gutted for you. Can't wait for next season. 💪💪💪
Sitting at the end was emotional and powerful. No words necessary yet we all felt it.
A bit of a heartbreaker really, feel gutted for you. But you're an absolute legend, inspiring everybody else to do their best! You're the people's champ my man!
Gutted for you! You were on fire and getting up and riding after that massive hit on the jump, wow, such respect for you and the strength of your mind and body! You’ll be back faster and stronger next season and get your hardline crown back!
To ride after your crash on the big jump is an achievement in itself, keep the head up mate, I feel a win on the DH circuit next year
That was immensely courageous and you showed such leadership and grit throughout the Hardline - those qualities and that respect are harder earned even than a win. Bravo 🫡
There's no audio for the last 30 seconds or so. I feel for you Bern, you've done so much with the team all year. Next year mate, next year :)
Bad luck Bernard, you had an amazing year and everyone is beyond proud of your success. You will be back stronger next year, and I cant wait to watch you compete again. Heal up soon Champ.
Finding a quiet place and sinking to the ground. Love this content @bk showing the ups and downs of these events. Thanks for not editing and showing the truth. It sucks you crashed, but so many positives from the weekend and the year. You’re an inspiration
Gutted for you dude, I have no idea how you even got up after the crash on Thursday not to mention the fact you still raced after it. A hard week after a great season. Go get some rest and heal up, you’ve definitely earned it. Thanks for all the entertainment this year. Bring on 2023! 🤘🤘🤘
Dude, the fairytale of qualifying so fast even with the messed up crash, was inspiration enough. So proud of you dude, I had the feels big time when you crashed. Here’s the prediction. BK will go down in history by become the winningest rider ever in Red Bull Hardline. No one can match you bro, so the next 5 years is about making history. 👊👊👊👊
Don't beat yourself up over it, you've had an amazing year!
Thanks for bringing us along for the journey, it's really been great to watch the progression.
You are still king of the hill in my books! Incredible rider and thanks for letting us follow what you do! You will be back and win it all next year🤯🤜😎
Dude you were so bunched from that heavy crash, lucky to even race. You’re still the 👑 of Hardline and your fans are still stoked for you and can’t wait for all the off-season LSD’s 🤘
Gutted for sure! Really rootin' for ya mate. Hardlines still didn't fail to deliver an epic event. Great seeing you and all the all the top riders.
Bernard you got the heart of a champion! Somebody had to put their ass on the line for this event to even happen and you stepped up big time. This event is so menacing it brings you guys together in a way that no other event can. But that doesn’t change the fact that somebody has to face the music first. That man was you! Let’s hope that Scaphoid bone has a vertical fracture so you can heal up quicker.
Bernard I'm actually in tears for you brother. You bring the enthusiasm and hype to all your videos and you positively radiate good vibes. But that was cruel, I really really do feel for you.
Sending you big hugs and big love, and we all know BK will be back stronger than ever!!
Long live the King!! (Of hardline)
Felt so bad. No one can say you didn't give ot your best. Gee wiping the mud off the lens spoke volumes about the whole thing.
As always I respect your hard work and honesty of showing everything. The good and bad. Respect BK. It's been a stellar season. Look forward to the next one (and off season when you are up for it). Kia kaha!
So gutted you crashed in the finals on the last run but glad you walked away from it . Been a tough 4 days, you pushed thru after your huge crash. Next season you'll be back on top BK !!! 🤘💪🥇
I'm gutted for you, you really deserved another win here. You'll come back stronger my lad. Love you and keep it going!!!!
Thanks for putting this out for us sports fans. It wouldn’t have been easy to have to relive it.
Soak it up and let it feed the hunger for next year! 🤘🏼
What a rolercoster of a hardline. Hard luck lad. Life is full of ups and downs, stay strong and keep riding.
This is your Sam Hill Val Di Sole 2008. A man we knew could win and a caught out by a little mistake and I was gutted for ya. But Sam Hill won the overall in 2009 and he became one of the Goats. You’ve been on form all fucking year and next year is going to be insane for you brother, you got this
Understandably disapointed. Still, what you did is amazing. 1st in quali after huge crash! Have a good off season. Your fans can't wait to see you next season!
Thanks for sharing the good and the bad, BK. That was heart wrenching to watch. You're an absolute Legend.
For me, dear Bernard, you belong to the 5 best in the world which also proves the result of the classifications. It is quite normal that after a big fall that you are not in good shape to tackle the final, especially if a hand injury is troublesome. That said, I know you will come together and come back stronger than ever. Talent doesn't disappear with a fall, it's confidence that you lose. It is this confidence that must be rebuilt by relying on your talent. I'm sure you will do it and succeed. It may not matter, but I'm with you.
That is heartbreaking. I would have done exactly the same thing after that. Find a patch of grass with no people and collapse. You had put so much effort into this event on all fronts. You're support for other riders was incredible. You have the speed man. It's there. And you have the heart. Go into next year with that. Jackson might have won but you were the man this week. A true leader.
You should be a film-maker when you retire from MTB! That scene after the finish when you rode off to a quiet corner as Elliot was starting his interview with Jackson in the background was poetic!
