thebob Posted March 1, 2021 Share First I have ever heard of the Descent Disciples or this Safa Brain guy. Mental stuff, but very impressive [YouTube] [/YouTube] Rock Guy, EddieV and ChrisF 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mountain Bru Posted March 1, 2021 Share UCI are gonna ban this video after 1 April....Seen a few of their videos.... Absolutely mental stuff. I get the feeling that certain "herbs" are legal wherever these dudes live Edited March 1, 2021 by Mountain Bru thebob 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thebob Posted March 1, 2021 Share It is amazing how he pins it like that. I will admit I was scared for him watching the video Edited March 1, 2021 by the_bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mountain Bru Posted March 1, 2021 Share It is amazing how he pins it like that. I will admit I was scared for him watching the video I think this one is better/worse... not sure if it's just the camera lens, but I didn't know it was possible to lean a bike like that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frosty Posted March 2, 2021 Share Knowledge of a descent will always make a good descender better than one who doesn’t know it well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mountain Bru Posted March 2, 2021 Share Knowledge of a descent will always make a good descender better than one who doesn’t know it well. Definitely, but I could ride that descent 1000 times and never have the cahones to do what these guys do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shebeen Posted March 2, 2021 Share UCI are gonna ban this video after 1 April.... Seen a few of their videos.... Absolutely mental stuff. I get the feeling that certain "herbs" are legal wherever these dudes livei'm surprised a big brand like Scott backed this.yeah it's cool, skillful, dangerous etc etc. but it's also illegal for very logical reasons. and just an accident waiting to happen. Only then will the finger pointing start. I've had okes on their luge boards over take my car going down franschhoek pass. to go those speeds you need the full apex of corners, so both sides of the roads. you're not in control of what happens with cars coming up. So while i think this is pretty awesome, it's not good for cycling. I'd say the same thing for anyone skating down kloof nek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But had similar thoughts on those clips where he uses the full width .... later in the video he certainly stays more in his lane ... I remember one of those ludge guys running wide, ending under a truck ... I felt sorry for that truck driver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
