What a great run, really enjoyed watching! Makes you appreciate the speed and fitness the pro's have, they make it look so smooth at the speed they carry. No dig at your speed whatsoever, I think you did great, I would have been half your speed again and picking myself out of far more vegetation! Well done!
World cup downhill course is classed as Orange. The old Red Giant is now the Top Chief and has been upgraded to black, which BTW has always been Black lol
lol, i was going to thumbs up before i got to it, but i decided to watch it first. i almost forgot about your post and then i seen how soft and funny it was, I most deff. lol'ed and then I remembered your initial comment prior to me watching it, haha good shiet!
Bloody great run, I agree when you see the berms and the jumps then compare them to the speed you were going( which is slightly faster and more confident than I could) it gives you an idea of how fast the pros are going. But still a great run dude. I’m only a couple of hours from the run so I might head down soon after watching this. Cheers
Make sure you check out the route first on foot it's a bit dodgy at the top, after the boardwalk when it starts getting really rocky. The bottom half was much safer (if that's possible 😂) my mates shat there pants when they saw the route in the real.
YT AL-2 quite a difference in feel. That's an 8 yr difference in engineering - rides incredibly well. Only the cockpit is a tad smaller. Nice ride down - how those Pros do it is amazing.
This video is class lol. At 9,48 the man says have a rest when in fact that should be when he should be going like f@!ck....the jumps are ridiculous and the crash amazing. Good on you bud....
i agree, the faster you go the easier it is, it's less bumpy, but thats with a dh bike, and yes i ride. i never rode that track though, since im in the bronx, nyc. but you rode it very well, Big! Thumbs-Up hommie!

Dan Leigh haha ok thanks for the heads up fella Cheers
Well done.. great nerve and not a little skill. Bravo!
Very true, but learning the course first is a must I find especially one of this length!
Outstanding. First watch of anything like this and I'm well impressed. Well done that DAD!
liked the positive attitude. Even while falling off...
Loved the commentary. Great ride..fair play.
Great effort! Hope to ride it one day myself

I'd just like to say this was only my 3rd run and I'm riding a Rocky Mountain Slayer SXC 50 all mountain 26"er! End of excuses....

Good stuff! Did you know the two miserable gits at the beginning?!!
Yes, unfortunately they're even more miserable 10 years on...! 😂
Going through rock gardens are easier going fast. Just a bit of advice
have you ridden the track?
i agree, the faster you go the easier it is, it's less bumpy, but thats with a dh bike, and yes i ride. i never rode that track though, since im in the bronx, nyc. but you rode it very well, Big! Thumbs-Up hommie!

Can you just turn up on the day and pay for a ride.
greasemonger29 yes you can, you only pay for the uplift (gondola) £32.50 for an adult day pass. £22 for youth (aged 12-17)
Dan Leigh
