Default FAST run down Velocity
And you thought YOU were fast down velocity at Mammoth?

Check this guy out.

I especially like how he airs the first bridge "roller" and lands like 12' to flat.

Great vid. If you really think about it, he wasn't doing the whole course that fast. Do you realize how many cameras they would of had to of used to get all the shots? They would shoot a section, stop move the camera and then continue from the next spot.

I talked with him too. If anyone ever tells you need a lightweight DH bike to be fast they are lying. That kid is tiny and runs Michelin DH32s front and back. His bike is at least 45 lbs.

my thoughts/words exactly. that said he had to back track quite a bit to bring it into each section. and it was fast!

great vid..GREAT FIND!!!

dayummmm.....

I wonder what kind of time he pulls down that. I know steve and I hit a 4:00 fairly easily, and I think Steve said his record was 3:45 or so. that guy is probably easily in the low 3:00's

oh, and I SO want to send that double by the first drop now. that looked fun

he is aproximately 5.368 times faster than me. Because he'll get in at least 4 pedals before I get one in.

It is pretty cool to see a video like this on a trail that I know very well. Most of the clips you see are on some unfamiliar trail many miles away. You have no idea what it looks like in person. I have ridden this trail many, many times and know what lines I ride. It is great to see how this dude runs these super fast lines and see what he is actually doing. Thanks for posting this.

Great video! I can't imagine the work that went into shooting all of those short segments and piecing it all together. Oh yeah, the riding is stellar too.
