I can’t emphasize enough how incredible this series has been. Story telling is great, editing is great. Just absolute top notch. I hope this has been a business success so we can hopefully enjoy this sort of content for many seasons to come
I agree, amazing job by Ben and the Team. This puts so much humanity in the racing and gives a whole nother level of depth to watching these people shred. Thanks for the great content!
This series and watching these athletes compete has been my viewing highlight over the past year. I cannot state how much I have.loved this series. Thank you!
Hey guys! I followed along the whole season. I loved every single video. Thanks you for beeing such a lovely bunch. This goes out to the filmer/cutter as well. Thanks❤
Sitting here in the middle of hurricane Ian, this is exactly what I needed. Sucks to be in the off season, but hopefully that means Cathro will finally get some rest lol see you all at rampage!
Another big fan of this series. Beautifully produced. The entire team should be proud of themselves for how they've performed this season. Thank you all for such an insight into a world many of us only get to watch on a screen!
are you guys signing up any senior level riders? I mean like, 56 years old, a bit overweight with moderate conditioning. I'm in Tennessee and willing to travel, but mostly I just want to be a part of your team! You guys seem like a fine bunch of fellas. Well done.
Hello there, the Final Boss is just the name of the episode and is just there to reflect Thibault's journey of overcoming mental battles. Plenty more episodes to come - and now the season is over they'll be more regularly too. Thanks for watching.
Awesome video! Just adding my 5 cents, if you were in that position and living a dream of being able to race World Cup wouldn’t you put everything you got into it? If I was that talented on the bike I would, I understand if there was commitments to work and school but that can come later, grab this chance with both hands otherwise someone else will.
9:00 My goodness. Ben is the Boss of dreams! 'You are worried about your performance, but I am not. I see your other commitments and I want you to finish them first, we will get you where you want to be. This is ultimately why we hired you, because we see what you will be able to do, not where you are, but we understand your past shows reason to not drop everything else and go whole hog.' Meanwhile my workplace 'oh, going for a run after work may affect your ability to do stupid, no dangerous levels of effort the next day? Maybe you need to think about your priorities. What do you mean we don't pay you well enough? What do you mean, we promised you a load of growth opportunities that we haven't delivered on? Get back to doing as you are told, we know you have external circumstances because of which it is difficult to leave this organisation.' Edit: grammar and minor improvements.
So true. Being a "thinker" in downhill is... Nearly impossible. The best way to ride it is in the moment, focused on pulling back time. You have to race like you know you're in second and you can win by just pulling more time. You can't think 'my top was good' or 'i hate the woods coming up' or 'this is my chance'. The entire run should be how can I get a tenth of a second out of every feature, every pump, every corner. Push, push, push. That's it. Never complacency. Never pride. Only push. lol "Push or do not push. There is no coast." - YODA
15:47 - an absolutely shit bit of track design tbh, just completely failed to factor in the preceding track and potential conditions, unlike the big drop at Ft Bill, which can be taken at a slow speed. Thibault was not the only guy who got shafted by it.

Yeah we need something to make up for the loss of Rob Warner and the UCI taking a dump on its fans.
man, quality of these videos is just another level. I'd even call them cinematic. Very fine peace of job there.
I get so nervous watching the race runs in this compared to the live race haha the power of story telling 😅 well done all great work!
An oustanding series of films, incredible effort from all, riders, mechanics and film crew, brilliant team spirit and such fun to watch!
This team and video series need to continue next year. Such brilliant videos and people 😊
Awesome video, it is really interesting to see the challenges and toughnes of a not Top 20 driver. Love your content !

So sick
awesome
Great content
I @Mahalomydude feeling from that intro
now it is time he should start work with a sports psychologist. At least he should try. A clear head is half of success!
Anybody else feel like this is mtbs version of Drive to Survive
So where can we buy the racing team jerseys??
Thibault F*cking Laly!!!
Brasil in área😝
🥳

Anyone know what's happening with the team next year? Was this it? Or will it continue?
Continuing. As far as we've been told the rider list is the same.
i dont think there ever been a harder qualifying then lenzerheide 2022, 9.95 seconds between 1st and 60th
cool
@Ben Cathro, can you plz make this into like a full on HBO series and make 100 seasons? Thank you!
What a shitty analogy at the end 😂

First ❤️
Second?
Third
so good, more next year please!!!
