Hope the recovery is going well, thank you for bringing high quality world cup content. I love the track breakdowns, line analysis, updates on other riders etc. so much.
DH racing is so much more exciting to watch than enduro & XC. And no one analyses it better than Cathro. I just hope the introduction of semi-finals doesn't result in more riders getting injured.
Different formats and I appreciate what EWS has done to evolve the Bike game. That said, not sure if Maes, Rude, Melamade could keep up with the likes of Bruni or the legends like Minnar, Atherton and Gwin
I wanted to watch Aimi's race run, unfortunately they showed just a couple of seconds of her run :(. Exactly like last race. I was so ready to cheer. Seems like they only show the junior women's fastest run, so sad. Aimi your gonna have to be the fastest so we are gonna be able to watch you ride that bike ;)! All in all, great result finishing 2nd. Keep at it Aimi! Doing amazing. Your smile kills me every time! And Cathro get well soon mate!
Thought I'd give DH a go.. Broke my T11 clean in half.. Bike was okay. Had a dozen more days on the bike since. Its the most gnarly of the gnarly extreme sports.
Love the comparison but feel that you needed to stet the start and finish a bit further apart. The braking into the first line choice didn’t really look like it was taken into account and the high line on the end wouldn’t really show its full exit potential until the apex of the following corner
not really she's the best women rider ever, she has won the most titles than any other girl ever , she has the mindset, the skills and has alot of experience at the top thats tough to compete with .The girls have some great riders but if Rachel is on top form they will find it hard to beat her maybe vali cant do it but she will have to work on her mind as that is whats holding her back but that takes time to build and shes only young, she has the raw bike skill to be up at the top but needs to work on her mentality
Big props to pinkbike for all of the great content. The slow-motion side-by-side rider comparisons was really a cool effect.
Pinkbike recap just better then all the World Séries Channel

They could make enduro better to watch but seems like they can’t figure it out.
If Enduro had better coverage, then it would be just as or better IMO

@@vrwgq3q Maes has won a World Cup downhill race.
@@vrwgq3q Richie Rude was a Jr world champ in downhill.
The DH championship wouldn’t be as sick without Ben’s analysis… AWSOME work, buddie!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Brilliant, thanks Ben and get better soon bro 👊
Love the work in these videos - this is my favorite sport to follow. Forget about NFL, NBA, NHL, etc I love this!
Excellent content!! Love it!!! You sound rested too Cathro! The extra sleep helps I say does it?
Whoa, this blending in technique with the speed comparison is awesome
This really is the golden age of Mountainbike Downhill!
Amazing quality content!! keep it up PINKBIKE team!!
Nah Cathro, these videos need to be twice as long! We want more tape!
Sorry for your injury! Hope you heal fast. Must be a bit of a heartbreaker. Good content
Always an interesting race!!

"Inside the variable course markings" has a great ring to it
Sorry about your crash and injury Ben! Take care and heal up. 🤘
1:47 anyone have linked to photos of the damage to the frame?
Cathro is like the Rob Warner we haven't lost........enjoy
Jumped the gun a bit with the weather conditions 😂
Scotsman declares "hardly any rain". Cue deluge.
@@petermcinnes6987 lmao spot on!
I think the UCI broadcasting team needs to hire Ben Cathro .
We're yet to see this edition of Leogang in the dry since they changed it in 2021 for the World Champs.
Much better quality than the UCI or GMBN farce ... But that's usual from Ben. GWS fella .. ;)
Maybe neck braces and a higher level of thoracic spine d3o should be considered mandatory
Ben is the best
Get better Ben, a legend!
Get well soon Cathro
I love you peoples!!
Sweet ghosting! 👻👻🆒🆒
Dutchies at 1:14 😂

Pinkbike have made the racing exciting, so much better than the UCI one.

Rachel Allerton?
Is saving your brakes a real consideration for DH racers?
I know it can be for race cars.
Someone help me out: what's with all the whistle tweeting when riders are charging down the course?
To alert that a rider is coming.
Riders get hyped up when they hear whistles
@@danraha haha yep totally this how else would they go that fast
I assumed perhaps it has something to do with timing rider stages, but what do I know.
"Hardly any moisture", spoke a little too soon mate. lolz
why did it rain?
Loris!
ben is the best no dobut
DH is such a sexy ass sport
It makes a mockery of the women's DH class that Rachel can just come back after years out and unfit and win the very first race back.
not really she's the best women rider ever, she has won the most titles than any other girl ever , she has the mindset, the skills and has alot of experience at the top thats tough to compete with .The girls have some great riders but if Rachel is on top form they will find it hard to beat her maybe vali cant do it but she will have to work on her mind as that is whats holding her back but that takes time to build and shes only young, she has the raw bike skill to be up at the top but needs to work on her mentality
Does Messi make a mockery of the rest of football?
top 15 women ONLY !!! IS SLACK
Did someone say that the Scott’s have no backbone so y’all decided to prove them wrong by breaking vertebrae?
9th
first
I must admit I was really wanting for this! 🫵🏻👍🏻🏴💙
All the best from Glasgow
