Yeah he just completely overshot the landing, he was going so fast. I reckon that's why Greg squashed it so hard...

Ironically his team gave him schtick in an Instastory when he cased that jump during practice.

 

Your stomach drops when you see a OTB like that.

Stoked for her win. I'm sure she is too. But I reckon deep down its a bit hollow for her. Even in inteviews she seemed more focused on dethroning Rachel than actually winning. Or at least if Rachel's racing... Its one and the same thing...

Feel sorry for the youngster Loris. Really thought he had it in the books.

For a change the woman's race was interesting to watch. Nice to to see Tahnee won (having a Transition taking the race!)

 

Pressure was really on Gwin and he delivered, think the rest of the season will be interesting.

 

Syndicate doing so well (all the riders in top 10!). Loris will have to take a win some time, and with today's run I don't think it's too far away. Greg was playing it safe and consistent. Andorra will be a good race to watch.

 

Kind of sucks that Loic was out for today, hope he will be back in Andorra. Troy is also doing some good racing. See some hard work ahead for Danny Hart, but he is gaining (not bad to go from 53 to 25 with a broken chain).

I quite enjoyed todays racing. The weekend shows that fast courses are not necessarily less intense than technical courses (almost like you have Monaco and Monza in F1). There seemed to be quite a few technicals on race day, showing how hard the riders and equipment was pushed. I'm not sure what all the keyboard ninjas were moaning about. If I am to book a DH trip today, I'll much rather go do Leogang than Fort William.

Good racing , ladies was awesome to watch.

 

Pity about Bruni , Wishing Thirion all the best with recovery.

 

29er vs. 27.5 ain't over by a long shot

Watching the replay on RedbullTV now. Some fantastic video footage showing the speeds these guys are capable of reaching.

Super super super chuffed for my girl tahnee... Rachel or not... She won it and deserved it

 

Gutted for the French frog... He did everything right for the win and I thought he had it.. But then bloody gwin!

This season is not going Hart's way. Such a bummer considering his hot streak last year.

 

Loved the Ladies racing. Thought Nicole may have put down a winning run, but it was not to be.

 

Gwin cool as ever. Vergier was at the ragged edge and Gwin just did a high speed cruise down.
