Overall, I really enjoyed watching this and thought that the commentary was quite good. I also enjoy these technical courses, it requires matched elite fitness with skillful riding that is the essence of MTB.
Amazing from Amos but what outstanding character and tenacity from Bjorn Riley to claw back that second place after a skewed stem and a chain-off. Great track too, really testing for the riders.
Really enjoyed this video and the broad approach and advice given.. I think.. and it's because I feel it'd be useful for me.. hopefully other people too.. some basic, techniques and patterns.. some building blocms that you can just dial without needing to think about the wider picture. We know we need the whole picture, but it's so daunting for a new player who doesn't necessarily have a technical level. It sounds dumb and it sounds bad. But I think us lower end guys just need some licks that we can hope to launch off to get our own creative stuff flowing. The hardest part for the teacher is bridging the gap between teaching a basic lick and telling us to practice and explaining how this one twiddle might fit into a wider situation.. maybe like Chord >> Scale >> intervalic note pattern.. I dunno. I like your style of teaching though...keep it up!
Practice makes perfect. When I raced XC, there was no such thing as a coach unless you were riding at an international level. One thing that helped me develop bike handling skills was that I started before clipless pedals were available and I hated not being locked in to the pedals, so I used old school toe clips with road cleats that locked me in to the pedals and I had to reach down to swipe the straps to get out. It forced me to become a better bike handler and made ride up stuff most people would get off and hike.
@@keirfarnum6811 same here, learned with toe straps and a fully rigid. You would very carefully choose your lines for survival. Years later, I still choose my lines the same way with my 120mm travel XC rig. It matters.
imagen if we calulate the price of carbon frame by removing the money for racing and salrys + removing big owner profits - probbly a carbon frame will cost 200 euro to manifature ...and by the time it pases to your hands full sus frame cost like 5-7-8k euro :)
Bring back Warner... commentary is lacking his passion... I only come to comment then I turn it off....... Same for the downhill! You've ruined it for the sake of a few bucks... shameful!
Reasons why Red Bull was better: 1) It was FREE and easy to view. 2) Because it was free more people watched it. Whopp is too busy trying to make a buck. 3) We saw more racing. Whilst the addition of Junior Finals coverage is a positive though. 4) Red Bull's graphics were better. 5) Current coverage is a pain in the a@$ to watch and are not started on time. 6) The short race coverage are okay but just a tease to get you to buy the subscription to watch live.
Um, WHAT?! That’s absurd! I used to ride and race in conditions like this in Alaska all the time. I LOVED it! The harder it was, the more I liked it. What kind of fair weather pu$$y riding place are you from?

Inspiring race by Bjorn Riley!
PROPER mountain bike course to sort the skilled riders from the ones that just have the legs to keep up
The commentary was fine.
nicely done by these U.S riders
Awesome race
The horn noise was really annoying and I found it hard to hear the commentary. Thanks for showing the full race.
Yep, watched most of it on mute.
Seriously, should a race director stop the person doing that? It's certainly distracting to The spectators, it must be infuriating for the racers.
Every sport has its hooligans
great race
Get rid of the horn guy!
Siempre N1NO THE BEST 💪🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏆🏆🏆
Rileys have skills
Freaking horn noise ANNOYING!!! I had to fast forward the video.
Do they really think that is cheering?… Why the need of such an obnoxious sound?
Agree!!! And the chainsaw in other venues worse
Are we going to get the full mens elite aswell ? :)
OMG a full run :O
NO WAY... Whoop what happened???

That freaking horn!! Made it difficult to watch

Why is nobody using mudguard?!! To save weight?! I can not understand that...
Harder to deal with any mechanical issues. They get in the way. Just accept that it’s muddy and deal with it.

Remove the horn! (so annoying/ constant)
Davis John Wilson Gary Robinson Brian
not sure when the annoying DH fan behavior infiltrated XC but....those horns and bells are annoying AF
Haha. You might be better off watching golf and tennis.

And ROB WARNER!!
Don't these guys know it's bad for the trails to ride when it's muddy?
For me it makes no sense to ride with this conditions a XCO race

Hannah Montana??
Cranna Montana! 😂
Stupid course. Simple as that.
