Megavalanche Race Run Carnage 2024
Вставка
- Опубліковано 5 жов 2024
- The Megavalanche is a race from the top of Pic Blanc in Alpe dhuez, all the way from to Allemond village. However this year the weather was too severe for us to be able to race from the very top of the mountain. However the wild conditions didn’t detract from how mental this event is.
Jack had a strong start in 5th, then was knocking around the top 10 before his chain came off. Losing 5 places to stop to put his chain back on, then losing another 7 places on the long climb not having the same cardio fitness as these riders at the mega (Jack has ridden his trail bike 3 times this year as he always rides his downhill bike), he managed to battle on in the lower section of the track to secure a top 20 finish in 17th place. The RAAW Madonna v3 frame, Schwalbe Tacky Chan tyres and SR Suntour suspension helped Jack to avoid any crashes while lots of riders around him slid out and crashed. The ONeal B50 double lens goggles with tear offs were also a must have in these conditions!
This wild race is over for another year. Enjoy the footage of Jack’s full run and we’ll bring you a Finding Speed episode before the week is out! - Спорт

Ninety years old and never in my best days. Wow. What an effort.
Rock Garden definition successfully updated around the world, no doubts...
and who won the race. you did very well in these conditions. did you ask yourself once during the race - why am i doing this to my body why - or do you love it anyway. really bad bad track this year and a bit different, big puddles and everything got dirty and muddy. thanks for the video and good luck to you jack. greetings from germany from the eastern sea
Brilliant race - this was a real mess - so impressed
Wow, that was B R U T A L. Kudos to you and all the racers that made it to the finish line. And thank you for bringing us with you on the race
The massive moments and screams of terror make for an incredibly entertaining vid!😂
I don't feel nearly as bad now about missing out on the main race by 2 places (my chain came off in quali before the moon rock). I had a full-on 30 yard two wheel drift coming down the ridge but at least the woods were still dry!
The speed you carried with no chain was amazing too!
thank you for the upload and capture your race J, this content has no price really
Insane race well done

Wow that forest was a carnage, riders falling everywhere, but you nailed it 😅

Great results in tough conditions this year.
Insane.....
Fucking INSANE. Might be my fav mega run ever. The forest section was fucken gnarly, the mud was like ice this year. Whos was that stuck in front of you for a while?
@@skankwave5245 wild wasn’t it! I’m not sure who it was mate
Nice race Jack. I guess it takes a lot more out of you than your DH World Cup runs.
i was just on your page and you said you had retired from racing. maybe with all the skills and knowledge, the mountain of hell is too much for the lungs now. anyway good run and all the best for your school.
@@mariannejacot1668 I have retired from World Cup downhill racing - I will still race other events 💪
Given chain efficiency being higher than belt in ideal scenarios, I wonder if mud and grit quickly makes the chain less efficient. Basically, is it worth going with belt in such races?
How does n.1203 in first position in the middle of the race ( watch Olivier Bruwiere video at 14' 19" ) Did he take some invalid shortcut at 1:41 ? his final time is missing from the official finishing order, he appears to have been disqualified.
yea that was illegal cut, but i did point this out, they havent taped properly. The whole course has lazy taping which annoyed me. But apparently there are gates that you have to hit in certain areas hidden from riders.
Where is all the snow
i miss the first corner
The mask strips do you throw them in your pocket?
@@peterwynnychuk5085 no but the ones we are biodegradable 👍
That sounded like it took 5 years from your life...
@@GaborEID only 5…? 😆
