Josh Arcus and Troy Weinert absolutely pinned in Thredbo, Australia as they rip up the Cannonball downhill race track ahead of next week's event. #DH #MTB #downhill
This is the best uncut follow cam video I have ever seen. The riding is surgical and appears effortless with fluidity and energy management. The trail is a rider's dream. Seriously amazing in every aspect including the angle and lighting.
I watched this video before my first ever visit to Thredbo thinking I could do this at a comparable speed. Took me abt 15 mins to get down rolling over all the rocks. Huge respect
Good god. Is this footage sped up?? I've ridden this track a number of times, and even though I'm old and slow, some of these entry/exit speeds seem almost impossible given the steepness and consequences in a few of those sections. Well done, guys. My mind is blown.
Honestly the high speed flow and bike control is just amazing. The follow cam really shows how the rider navigates the course. I'm going to rewatch this as much as I can to try to learn from it.
Holy F*ck. So bad ass. I think a lot of those were meant to be rollers not gaps and doubles. Best follow. That takes total trust to follow that close, that fast doing such gnarly stuff. Didn't think is was possible to go so fast on some of that stuff. You guys crushed it. Well done mates.
If we ever ran a world cup on it, Brosnan would be a certainty to win it. Peaty, Minnaar, Luca Shaw and Amaury Pierron have all come out to race it. He's won the Cannonball Festival DH race every year it has run! It's an awesome track that's been around a long time. I've heard rumours about Thredbo planning to build a new track on a steeper part of the hill to run a world cup at some point in the future. Of anywhere in Australia, it has the best potential for an amazing world cup track. We can only live in hope!
@@jamesrussell7982 that sound great steeper sections are one of keypoints to get a world cup, i am from Austria and i know about to ride some realy steep things are potential very important to become a better rider and Troy is amazing
BOOM! Great ride lads... I can't get down that hill that quickly when I am snowboarding there and I have soft stuff to fall on!! Nice cheeky manual too!
That was a sick run!!! Kudos!!! And here I was thinking that Australia was only dessert and kangaroos. Although, them two cats looked like they have someof that Down Under Kangaroo Spirit in them...Great video!!!
Like... Wtf was that?! 😳😳I had to check my UA-cam settings to make sure I didn't have this video fast forwarded. Within a 5:40 min video, I was able to count at the VERY LEAST 540 million ways I would've died trying what they did!
WOW, Go cameraman GO, Your subject, epic run Camera settings very nice, hyper smooth not overdone Exposure...Great HUGE thanks for sharing, nice work, 10 thumbs up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Damn! Well done gentlemen. This is one of the best follow cam videos I’ve ever seen!
Have to agree. That was perfection. 20 years in the game and i´ll cofidently say, this was some of the best riding i´ve seen.
was just thinking the same thing.. you boys can ride
I don't get it. You guys can't tell it's animated video or I can't see your sarcasm?
@@sextempiric7137 I'm not sure if you're being sarcastic either XD
Animated? Wut?
@@bikesnblades6737 My dear! The rider is animated character, like in games. Don't tell me you're blind and your sister is typing this for you?
That run was nuts! All those rock gaps. Nearly 6 minutes long too.
One of the tracks I ride is around 7:30 it’s awful, and it has quite a few flat sections.
That has to be some of the greatest and slickest riding I've ever seen.
Damm… Didn’t think it was Easter just yet.. that’s the most bunny hopps I’ve seen on a DH run in a long while 🐰🚲💨💨 Proper Goodness 🤘🏼
Amazing skills and speed, they just jump of and over everything. The camara guy even has time to do a manual. Very impressive !!!
This is the most perfect thing I've seen in the downhill 😍🤩🤟🔥💙

This the most fun and gnarly run I've ever seen. These dudes smashed the shit out of it! 🤘🤙

I think is the camera settings or stabilisation, seems always that he is landing on on pillow.
@@a8wsm322 he is landing on a pillow it's a 10 thousand dollar bike
@@ryanhom3006 hahaha, tell me about it. My bike is 10K build but nowhere near as pillow as the one on the video;)
@@a8wsm322 yeah mine was cheap at 7. I feel like I'm on a Walmart bike with some of the stuff I see in the woods
You should go watch some downhill racing it will blow your mind
Thats some of the best riding ive ever seen.
Me2
Jesus ... that's a full commitment track. So many doubles and triples. Miss some of those and you'll be messed up for sure
Wow wow wow! So much skill and talent. Standing ovation for the trail builders please.
That was some of the nastiest and most educational riding. That line choice for the double at 1:52!
Honestly the high speed flow and bike control is just amazing. The follow cam really shows how the rider navigates the course. I'm going to rewatch this as much as I can to try to learn from it.
That fire road gap is no joke.
The one at the very top? Totally agree, especially considering that road is basically marbles over hardpack.
That was one hell of a run!
Awesome! Mega Respect from Germany!
Best follow cam I've ever seen. No question. And that riding was next level, gapping EVERYTHING. Wow
After seeing you guys go down those hills full of rocks like if you were floating that’s when I knew you guys are on a whole another level 🙏
We need a World Cup DH in Thredbo.
That fire road is pretty hectic in person, and he's pedalling and gapping the water bars
Agreed… As if Thredbo couldn’t make a DH and XCO course to match Leogang
Dam, dude was shredding and the recorder didn’t lose him for a second 😳
By FAR the best POV I've seen in a year - wow I want to go ride that trail! Well done gents!!
better get that extreme sport medical insurance out! 😅
Amazing to watch. The course looks fantastic, so well done to the designers.
Holy F*ck. So bad ass. I think a lot of those were meant to be rollers not gaps and doubles. Best follow. That takes total trust to follow that close, that fast doing such gnarly stuff. Didn't think is was possible to go so fast on some of that stuff. You guys crushed it. Well done mates.
That was exhausting just to watch!! What a great ride.
That is a proper DH track, not a second to breathe. You have to constantly work the bike, jump, lean, pop, drop, etc. Perfect.
I've ridden this track a bunch. These guys are next level.
Maan that looked hectic, nice riding!
Wow… that’s pretty amazing footage and skills.
I am speechless .....What a ride guys!!! I hope this is a upcoming world cup track for the aussie people. I remember Rennie, Novoselic, Hill etc...

Holy poop those guys were flyin'! That looks like a seriously fun and tough track.

By far one of the best downhill tracks at a bikepark. Well done gentleman!
