    Man. I can't tell you how much I love the Rode Wireless GO 2 setup you're using. Changing the game in how we hear the guests and REALLY gives you a chance to talk to them more and provide more info for the viewer. Love it man. Great work.

      Agreed!
      I think it’ll be the new standard, and the only way to have a conversation while riding from now on. It changed the game, it pushes forward the plan of going places and meeting the people that live and ride there. Simple, but mega effective!

    I came to echo what everyone else is saying about the dual mic setup. Very nice Brian. 👌 I also came to ask if you skipped the gnarly rock roll that should have been at @9:40 or so. That thing was so crazy I can’t believe you wouldn’t show it. Unless they removed it. Also, skinny section you rode out onto and has the steep drop in, is no joke. You should watch Pat Smage hit that. He rode up it!!! Lastly, they made “bridge is out” into a blue trail. That trail was serious!!!

It took me many run ups and i did it a few times trying to get the even crazier jump that was after it, I never did it btw. Glad they changed it but would’ve been cool for you to see it before!
