@@Mcfc2Rich I dunno , I've seen some RUclipsrs like Ollie lowthorpe with videos looking this fast .. check out his videos . I think the new camera lens has alot to do with it
Ronan's having a hell of a year! Two Hardline and a WC win so far. I spectated hardline in Tazzie and was blown away at how composed Ronan is at such a manic speed, next level skill.
Growing up in Ireland it's hard to understand how someone can be so good at DH. We have tiny mountains and no real DH tracks. Now we have three top world cup riders and 2 win contenders. It's amazing.
@@MD-uu5nt i suppose like the irish greats on the road from the 80s onwards, he travels to where the real mountains are, the same as they tended to join continental teams with easier access to the alps etc.
I find it reassuring that I have never fell off on a flat piece of grass track, and therefore am better at Ronan riding flat turf sections. I'll give it to Ronan for 99.999% of the rest of the track though. That was insane!
Given I was mentally yelling, "He's not slowing down fast enough! He's going too fast to stop!", I am fairly confident that he ditched the bike at the end to make sure he didn't crash into the people waiting for him!
If you have no idea of the Hardline course and just how gnarly it is prior to watching Ronan's race run, you may get the impression it's just another techy track with big jumps. These young guns are setting the bar higher and higher! AMAZING run Ronan!
Its crazy how Bernard looked so fast, I didn't thing anyone could go harder than that....then Ronan puts 2 seconds on him immediately....it didn't seem possible
@@blakkpatron Yeah I think both Ronan and Juanfer found a sweet spot in the top bit where they were at the right speed to hit the right rocks and get into a bit of a rhythm that let them avoid getting snarled up since they were bouncing over the trickier rock sections...BK probably pushed a little too hard at the start and had to muscle through a few spots that those two just bounced over. Juanfer had a great top and really good bottom section, BK had the reverse, and Ronan just pured the whole thing.
He was flying up top and he pumped the backside of the first rock drop and gained about 2 mph on everyone at that spot. DH is rolling chess. We coined the phrase at Plattekill back in 96. Line choice is everything
This is one of those videos that will be talked about for years to come. A go-to for mtb fans. Ronan has well and truly pushed the limits of what's possible on a bike.
How on earth did Ronan make that look so easy! Such an awesome ride. Well deserved win and a great weekend for him, what with his new Red Bull helmet too. So cool!
What I find amazing is not hearing a single lockup on his tyres before the 90's, he is not only going fast but being so efficient with it. Maybe Red bull really does give you wings!
You FEAR Absolutely NOTHING..... Total RESPECT..... Thats how you Red Bull HARD LINE..!!!! ❤ Ronan Dunne 🍀 has just basically owned the course.... seems to know it like the back of his hand....!!! that builds confidence and trust in bike to do mega tasks... just like he did... hat off to him...!!
The very definition of flow state, when mind body and spirit come together, have a chat, they get on the same page and straight grip it and rip it🔥🔥🔥 congrats Ronan🤙
I have been follow Matt Jones for about 4 years now and have watched him through his Hard line Journey's. I his a very skilled rider, but man after watching him give a great shot a his run, crazy mechanical issues :(, and then watching Ronan's run. Wow! It shows you just how good he it. Absolute BEAST!
Even though I watched RB Hardline live and saw the record get broken 3 times in a row with Ronan taking home the win, still had to check I wasn’t watching on 1.5 times speed 😅
Ronan, Berhard and Jaunfer were all insanely quick, but Ronan looked quick everywhere and his top section was just sublime when Bernard's looked a bit ragged. That's where Bernard lost too much time, time that he could not make up despite being quicker in the lower sections. Ronan is brilliant young guy, a bit like Jackson G. Thrilling to watch race.
That was an insane run yesterday. This POV show how technical and difficult this trail is. Ronan makes it look so easy and smooth. I would die many times over. Truly a master rider at its best. Congratulation on your win!
Oh snap! Yo! He is going SO fast! How he managed to stay on his bike the whole time, is beyond me. The speed going through the top section was incredible. And it was like those huge drops didn't even phase him, too! What a legend.
Amazing riding he's going to be on it this year.... Also nice to hear robs commentary again.... Let's hope red bull take back the DH world cup in the future
His qualifying rounds were equally AS IMPRESSIVE! I figured he had a good chance of winning it this year! Awesome Job to Ronan Dunne - what a machine!! I could watch that run over and over and over.... he was FLYING through that course!!!
I would LOVE to have motorsports style metrics on screen like speed, G-Forces in all directions, heart rate in this case... You name it.. It is already here for motorsports.. This would be a legit eye opener on this type of riding on what the athletes are going through on the way to the top (or bottom) of the mountain... Insanely amazing riding skills!
This has to be up there with the best dh runs of all time! The helmet cam video really is crazy having seen similar angles from the other professional racers…
ENHORABUENA RÓNÁN!!!!! Alucinante bajada, verte ayer en directo se me ponían los pelos de punta!!!😎 Polonia y ahora Hardline!!!!😝 GRANDE MONDRAKER!!!!💪🏻💪🏻🤩🤩
Great run and the camera was flawless. Loved riding this run with him. Running my own line while watching his... Made a lot of.thw same choices but I would have wrecked no less than twice..lol
That was a absolutely amazing run, great to see it pov, the speed he carried through the whole course was incredible, massive congratulations to the lad well done 👍🚲😜
Anyone knows from wich planet Ronan comes from?...Because this couldn't possibly be achieved by a mortal human being from planet earth!?!?!?! He's almost floating...Through the hardest, gnarliest, trickiest DH track I've ever seen. On a bicycle!!!! Tazmania was quasi unbelivable, but this?...Otherworldly!
we're still figuring out how Ronan's speed is humanly possible. Any ideas?
No idea, but something to do with mentally being fine with staying loose and peddling down a cliff. Outrageous 🔥
be in contact with as little of the course as possible, apparently! that run was unreal
Ronan + 🚲 = ⚡️⚡️⚡️
not a human?
five red bulls before race run?
you know he's fast when gopro makes it look fast
you know it's steep when go pro makes it look steep
One hundred percent the GoPro effect is DEVASTATING lol and he dodged it.
Nah dude the opposite. New gopros make things faster then it appears. Older gopros are different
30fps looks faster than 60fps, but 30fps will never make you look this fast

Ronan Dunne: the Irish Missile. Born to destroy mountains and pronounce words like no one before him.
ah ha goldsone le pisa los talones
@@YanRed goldstone is on crutches rn 😭🔥
hahahah
After Ronan received his Red Bull helmet it gave him an extra gear!! Well deserved!! 🚲💨💨🔥🔥🔥
That might be the craziest POV run I have ever seen, even more than what we see from Rampage because of the speed. Absolutely insane.
Crazy speed. When I watch this I thinking that speed on video x1.5
lmao same I checked the video speed after 5 secs into the run
@@neromaster8730Same
Only x1.5??

This is simply unreal. He was on the edge of control for almost the entire run. Amazing human performance.

Closest I've been to having a heart-attack from just watching a video. That was STUPID Fast! Unreal.
This run is absolutely insane. Well done Ronan
Bonkers. Relentless effort. Well done Ronan

One of my favorite riders so im glad to see him throw down this incredible run on this unreal track!
Ronan was figuratively and literally in a different gear than everyone else. Brilliant!!!
The fact that he keeps his breathing under control the whole run is absolutely insane!
Going so fast it makes everything look small, except his balls! Savage run!

I remember Greg Minnaar saying ‘The faster you go, the smoother it gets !‘.
Totally deserved win !
Complete composure and incredible technical ability to hit the hardest lines. Legend ! 🇮🇪
an absolute menace. Most savage POV ever, the level of gnar is through the roof. Cant' imagine the effort he put into it
I don't think I took a breath watching that. Absolutely insane! These riders are on a whole different level to us normal hoomans.
Well done Ronan. What a talent. You have the whole mtb community at home proud of you. Keep doing what your doing.
Send itttt
For 2 minutes and 50 seconds the biker is effectively immortal following the rules❗️❗️🔥
Congrats Ronan you are crazy
Amazing run. The precision it takes to run through all those rocks and roots, unimaginable..
147. I counted 147 times I would've died.
That would have required 146 resurrections.
so awesome
i luv redbull hardline
Best dh event ever!
That was an insane run yesterday. This POV show how technical and difficult this trail is. Ronan makes it look so easy and smooth. I would die many times over. Truly a master rider at its best. Congratulation on your win!
Savage run, in his flow state for sure. No fear. I'm predicting he'll get the world cup overall this year
He makes that top tech section look SO much less sketchy than I know it actually is. Absolutely insane!!
Yeah I think this my favorite downhill run now, this was just incredible.
Oh snap! Yo! He is going SO fast! How he managed to stay on his bike the whole time, is beyond me. The speed going through the top section was incredible. And it was like those huge drops didn't even phase him, too! What a legend.

Best DH run ever! Anywhere! 😮😮😮😮🔥🔥🔥🔥
INSANE…would love to See this for real someday. Cant get my head around how amazing this was!!!
the way he was able to float over that first section where almost everyone else was getting rattled around, crazy
That was insane. 🤯
it is insanely fast even compared to others' POVs 😮
His qualifying rounds were equally AS IMPRESSIVE! I figured he had a good chance of winning it this year!
Awesome Job to Ronan Dunne - what a machine!! I could watch that run over and over and over.... he was FLYING through that course!!!
I can't imagine the pain in his arms - holy cow!!
Comparing this to Matt Jones and his videos, this is insane. The speed doesn't do justice to how technical this track is.

ok, what the hell was that.. Is he even human? The speed, the control, zero fear.. That was amazing!
Looks like it's fastforwarded. Absolute beast. Ronnan is ridiculous.
Unreal!! Amazing bike control
Absolute banger of a run. Hardline was gnarly this year.
He almost lost it right before the big jumps! 😮
The helmet cam onboard doesn't show just how brutal and steep that track is, and awesone job Ronan on getting the Red Bull lid...
Insane run! 🔥 Bernard must've been devastated, but happy for Ronan at the same time! 🙌
It's incredible to realize how different perspectives can change the perception of speed, difficulty and crazyness of all runs!
ENHORABUENA RÓNÁN!!!!!
Alucinante bajada, verte ayer en directo se me ponían los pelos de punta!!!😎
Polonia y ahora Hardline!!!!😝
GRANDE MONDRAKER!!!!💪🏻💪🏻🤩🤩
Unfathomable speed, it looks like it's speed up because it shouldn't be humanly possible to ride this course that fast 🔥
What an animal. Way more impressive seeing his run on the onboard shot. 🔥
I personally feel this is the most extreme of all sports, that run is mind boggling.
The guys not even breathing hard at the end... such an intense run the whole way down
Out of breath just watching this! 😮💨
That dude was ready to party! Absolutely gnarly
You are an amazing human
Insane speed! Big up Ronan! A well deserved win dude!
Absolutely mental! Can't believe those speeds...crazy.
Great run and the camera was flawless. Loved riding this run with him. Running my own line while watching his... Made a lot of.thw same choices but I would have wrecked no less than twice..lol
The river gap would have been so sick
Someone would get hurt fs
This^
Modifications had to be made and couldn’t be ready in time. Stay tuned until next year
Sick as in potential to put riders in intensive care!? Can’t believe they even tested it without a net!
@@st4555 when it gets fixed its going to be a safer part on the course, lol all of it is dangerous to the riders but it wasn't the most dangerous
U N R E A L!!!! Absolutely spectacular!
The video always looks way easier than seeing that kind of terrain in person. Gnarly and insane
A few years ago I saw this guy riding dh near where I live, he was absolutely flying, mind blowing speed.....
My brain can't even comprehend how someone can move that fast! That was incredible!
That was a absolutely amazing run, great to see it pov, the speed he carried through the whole course was incredible, massive congratulations to the lad well done 👍🚲😜
Wow That’s insane on it all the way. Beast mode. Well done top man. Almost look’s like it’s being play on Fast forward.
So much better than the insta360 vid from quali 👍
Agreed….not a fan of the view range on Insta360
+1 360 stuff looks weird
@@deanlowe2580 everything looks spaghettified
The whole event was sponsored by insta 360. I'm sure he was using one for this pov
I’ve watched a few of Matt’s videos - this looks like it’s in fast forward!
Wow! The amount of things that have to go right for a run like that!
wow that was nuts
That's ballistic... he's on a whole new level..
Mental run
woof. rippin, flyin, the amount of focus and exertion
That is terrifying!
That was Sick!
That is without a doubt the most insane bit of biking I’ve ever seen 😱
Insane run, so fast. Big respect to Ronan.
That technical rock section before the road gap was frightening...!!
OMG 😂 I would have gone OTB within the first 10 seconds of that.
Kid floating on thin air! 💨💨💨💨
You can feel the intensity and concentration when watching him ride❤
Anyone knows from wich planet Ronan comes from?...Because this couldn't possibly be achieved by a mortal human being from planet earth!?!?!?! He's almost floating...Through the hardest, gnarliest, trickiest DH track I've ever seen. On a bicycle!!!! Tazmania was quasi unbelivable, but this?...Otherworldly!
That is next level. Well deserved and the track this year was super nice in all regards!
He Dunne did it!
Unreal! What a run!
