      Tom Cardy just rode this course for his channel and talks about this. Man is a slopestyle rider who's used to big jumps and even he said it was nuts that they were doing this.
      He admitted that he feels he's a high level rider, generally speaking, but the course humbled him. It truly is insane how these riders take these incredibly difficult courses and go flat out on them.

    One would've thought with all the mistakes happening in the recent years in this exact corner, the new production team would put cameras there to see what's happening.
    The drone shots from above were an improvement, but the corners look so easy from that angle, and then there's also that tree blocking the sight...

    It’s a shame the commentary and Live feed is a downgrade, but if there’s one thing we can take from the first two rounds it’s that our sport will always produce the goods! In general the media around it is better than ever and once the live coverage finds it’s feet a bit more I reckon downhill will benefit as a sport

      Dude, Downhill already benefits and has been for a long time, there's plenty of brands glad to sponsor riders, even ones that don't race at all, mountain bikes are being sold of all kinds all the time and parts sell like snacks with the larger brake rotors running out of stock quickly. MTB has seen an insane increase in the last 13 years on audience and riders alike.

    I agree with Ben saying there was improvements in both the commentary and broadcast however the bar was set low from last week. The broadcast of the junior men was the worst I’ve ever seen. Having to pay $65 for a worse product this year is disappointing. Hope it improves…… a lot!

    Is anyone else not a fan of run-ending features like that turn? Its like a test where there is a single question that will fail you no matter how much you studied or how well you did on the rest of the test. There is no line choice in it either, its just hope you can hit it perfectly and that it hasn't shifted or changed too much before your run - a tiny rock getting shifted between runs could turn a first place run into a wipeout. I know thats the nature of the sport but it all coming down to one turn makes it hard to feel like a win is conclusive.

    Also, nice of you to be so kind to the commentators Ben, but it was rubbish. The other thing is the anchorperson is famously well suited to football… but, so it turns out, not DH. In fact, I’ve watched some of the other disciplines and this person is useless at that too. I mean, how does this person manage to shut down Reece? Seriously, he’s got so much to offer and as soon as his naturally self effacing on camera persona gets into ‘send mode’, boom!, he’s cut out: every time.
