‘AND I AM MASSIVELY GENEROUS....’
That really made me laugh because it sounds so sincere, class 😂😂
Now that you showed it in detail I can see the force the riders and the bike take on that landing . Omg gutted about Rachel and hope she will make her full recovery quickly and smoothly
Rachel might be Jordi's only sane relationship.
You can skip TV when Lord Cathro is doing line science!
Wow that drop is actually huge
This was a marvellous video. Well done Benjamin!
Amaury is jacked AF! 💪🏻
Just keeps getting better and better best vids on you tube like to see the guys behind the scenes having a laugh keep them coming big man
#CathroVision is amazing! You do a great job covering the races, keep it up :) PS: ROJCEK was the smoothest!
Looking forward to seeing her back out there
I am massively generous for this sweet content.
The worse part about that type of achilles injury is that you initially you think you can walk it off and you make it worse. A couple seconds later, the real pain starts, and then the swelling. For Rachel, as soon as she knew something was amiss, she unclipped her foot, tried to stretch it out, but realized that was a bad idea, and limp footed it down the track.
I hope she heals up soon, she's quite the warrior and inspiration for Janeen and I. If it weren't for Rachel, Janeen would have never purchased a mountain bike for herself.
Thank you for sharing. Your videos are spot on coupled with great commentary. Good job!
Mattj walker scooping out the lines in the swim
Awesome coverage again!!
Ouch, you can see the hyperflexion of her ankle from the forces. Get well Rachel, make it back soon.
Awesome video, now subscribed.
Thanks for another top vid Ben. Looking at both of the drops Rach was quite far back on her bike when landing. The slow mo video from front on - look how far below the pedal her heel is, I've done that off a smaller drop and it hurt, but luckily I didn't damage anything. With her weight that far back it will all be on that back leg too which obviously doubles the force on the tendon. Get well soon Rachel, looking forward to seeing you smashing the championship next year!
Fantastic as ever, great to see TJ the daft bugger too!!
Awesome video cathro can’t wait for vale di sole
Late but still great! keep up the amazing work ben
Awesome to see you at Laggan and then Fort Bill dude!!!!
Best uci wc dh 'breakdowns'/ content channel⛰🚴♂️🕵️♂️👌
Thanks for the video didn’t know about it
Grateful...
loved the squids
Good vid mate! And Ouccccccccccccchhhhhhhhhhhh! Poor Rach! I partly injured an achilles tendon skateboarding a few years ago and that was bad enough, but to snap it is just .............. oh god, must be soooooo fkin painful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Damn, Minnaar has a lot of confidence in clipping back in right before the drop!
Editing is always funny
CSI UCI Inspector !! Well done . "case" closed!
Brilliant 👌
I'm so hype wyn masters used to watch dead sailor and gemini wheelie king. I also love that video and riding wheelies
Last person to fail a DH drug test, Gary Houseman. Grouse Mtn 2003. Won and then stripped for Mary Jane + test.
Weed is not allowed?
@@WiscoMTB37 why do you think ratboy went full freeride? hahaha
@@WiscoMTB37 not sure about UCI, but for USA cycling, i believe weed is now allowed outside of competition. so there's a threshold amount you can have in your blood and if you smoked weed in the last 24 hours before your test, you will fail a drug test. but smoking a week before or so isnt going to cause a ban.
wtf, weed is not going to help you win a race at all and it's banned
Hope Rachel heals up fast. She's an amazing rider!
Hey seen u before
G'day Mr Salmon:)
Pieron so smooth
Brilliant Ben. Poor Rach though. Horrible thing to happen. Heal up Rach 👊
That’s a horrible injury, suffered same thing myself years ago and it took at least twelve months before the strength and dexterity was anything like it was before. Really hope she doesn’t push things too fast in her recovery,it really doesn’t take much to end up back to square one. Patience is key . Gutted for the kid.
Cathroooooo!!!!
If you look ever-so closely at the video, her right foot appears a little further back, heel hanging off the pedal possibly a bit more than usual...case the landing leaning back, and once all the suspension is used up, all that force extends down into her lower limbs causing sudden dorsiflexion of the foot...Toe still on the pedal and the heal forcefully shoved downward towards the ground and... and "Pop" goes the weasel...
Ironic that Eddie Masters dropped a great barrier reef gag just as bottom of the paddling pool turned ghost white.
I have torn/shredded an ACL and I would say it's likely over time one suffers numerous minor tears and we learn to deal with the minor pain until that one load that just overcomes what is left. I don't believe the tendon has to be over extended just a higher shock load than what it can take. Hopefully she can return but it would not surprise me if she does not especially with what all the Atherton's have going on. As far as the landing goes. It is what it is so racers need to deal with it or go around.
I've always wanted to see Finn against another rider in Cathrovision
Gary Forest once told us a wee story about how he snapped his banjo string
I've near done it a few times this year, really hoping I haven't weakened it and have to get full circumcising.
Excellent video Ben, as always. Never mind the delay (if it is before the next round :).
One nitpick on pronunciation - in all Slavic languages - J is always pronounced as Y in english - so Rojček and Žabjek are pronounced as Roycheck and Zhabyek. Somebody could explain that to Rob too :)
Ahhhh, so good to know! I’ve got Jure in my intro script for tomorrow.
@@BenCathro Was it you who explained that to Rob? He got Zabjek right in the live feed :)
lets be honest now Ben.... You we're too "busy" geekin' out over all the spandex, mudslides, and 6 figure contracts of the Tour de France! ;)
p.s. Im also busted af like Rachel... snapped wrist on big rocks... so we're all maybe a bit TdF oodling.. 😳
Lit
Any insight into where she runs her cleat in her shoe? If it's forwards the there may have been more leverage on the achilles.
Please Mr Benjamin...
CAN WE HAVE A BIKE CHECK¡!¡
There should be a "pool scene" in every Cathro vid...Also, when you tear your AT it feels like something jumped up and bit you, very strange and can be pretty painful injury. Bad thing about tearing/rupturing your AT is it takes a long time for it to heal...just ask Kevin Durant.
ben my toenail is half off and im slowly tearing it off as i watch
cool
Skip to 12:53 and rip it
It's okay, I'm sure you're generous as well xD
thats Lone Wolf McQuade, not tight jeans Walker, Texas Ranger!
I'm totally going to miss Keith on the circuits!
Rojcek was smooooth
I think Tracey will be keeping that #1 plate
Rachel's injury looks similar to how Ratboy broke his ankle at Hafjell, just hitting the ground hard, although he overshot the landing whereas Rachel cased it, both landing on the flat off a big fast jump.
tdyerwestfield - Ball Street OG ratboys was allot more spectacular though and had he still sent it to the line during finals run
Why aren’t mtb races on tv or main channels such as bbc
"And I am Massively Generous" LMAO
Ah geez, that’s what you get for thinking different things to what your saying. Of course I meant the patrons are massively generous and I’m massively grateful! 😬
@@BenCathro I I still hope you leave in the hilarious slipups! Good video, poor Rachel though. Tough sport
She snapped her ankle? I thought she snapped her achilles tendon?
she did
Do you sell the "bikes are gid" tee shirt?
Hey Ben. Someone was punting a theory that she may have been using an antibiotic known to result in tendinitis. Some docs prescribe the stuff without warning about the risks. Perhaps ask Rachel if that's the case? Long shot, but an interesting possibility.
Innnnteresting. She won’t be at this round but I’m sure there’s someone I could ask. Does tendinitis actually weaken the tendon or just cause inflammation?
Interisting point. However the landing is badly shaped or not that much in the end, it's sure she has a previous weakness. Spontaneous Achille's rupture happens just by walking up a step so.... Blame the gap is just emotional bashing! Bad luck is guilty.
I get tendonitis in my hands from work. Doesn't seem to weaken them, just get lumps that hurt with pressure. Joyous I tell thee!
Great vid as usual Mr Cathro. Ta!
@@BenCathro Fluoroquinolone antibiotics like levofloxacin and ciprofloxacin are well-known to cause tendon damage, particularly the achilles in runners. Often used as prophylactic antimalarials. www.haydnwilliams.com/blog/training-on-antimalarials/ This paper seems well worth a read: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4080593/
@@BenCathro from the literature out there, the effects include inflammation, weakening and spontaneous rupture. Age does seem to play a role. But the effects are not limited to affecting only tendons like the Achilles. Look up fluoroquinolones.

Better late than never mate.
Hi Ben, quick question. Why do I keep breaking the screen on my phone? Do you having any advice on how I could stop being an idiot? Thanks.
Strap your cat to the back of your phone. Problem solved... I think.
@@BenCathro that is a much better answer than I could ever have anticipated. Thank you, good King Ben
Cover one side in butter
Rachaels heal, and peddle roll back to far on the landing snapping the tendon.
Was that gunshot sound the sound of her tendon snapping????
with regards to the drug testing, its been a while so i may be wrong so forgive me if I am, but didnt a certain dh rider win a world cup whilst high as a kite? absolute hero!!
Fingers crossed she is the best! Is she like getting old as far as a downhill racer goes?
Pierron is WIDE
Brayton
Having Tahnee, Rachel and Myriam Nicole out at the same time is the best thing that’s happened to Women’s DH.
Change my mind.
True...but now we have transgenders making podiums😒
Martin Cantwell we do? Who?
@@alexmason7103 Kate weatherly .. change your mind yet😂
Martin Cantwell can’t work out if ur having a laugh or not cuz I see where your coming from... LOL
@@alexmason7103 honest, Google her name.. first link to pop up is the controversy around it...
sat here wondering how a noise can be graphic ???
As much as we hate to see another top women elite rider getting hurt, let us nit dwell on the negatives and just think positive, like its a great time for young women elites to gain that need confidence to level up. That might just what they need to be more competitive and make the women elite more exciting, with more riders challenging for the top spot and overall, not just 4 players in Tracey, Miriam, Rachel and Tahnee.
Bruni
What’s the opposite of casing, overshoot.
Enduro king duh
She's a funny chicky
Are we sure Gemini isn't actually Elliot Jackson?
... maybe she smashed the pedal on the ground, like Josh Bryceland
Metric only here please...
Does she ride flat pedals? She might have been too far on her toes on that foot.
First
Horrible
