Default Worlds DH Practice: Day#2

Pretty sick footage. Hill looks to be on it, yet again, but Peaty is in great form, too!

If somebody knows how to embed these clips, please do the honors.

What are you missing?.....GREAT DH FOOTAGE!!! I'm not 100% sure, but I think you need the most recent version of QuickTime. If you download it, you should be fine.

Currently there are no World Cup DH races in the U.S. The closest would probably be Mt. Saint Anne, but it's quite a drive from SoCal.

To bad I would love to see one these some time. Maybe one time I will just fly up and watch the race and ride for a few days afterward.

Yeah, except they're not permitted to show it in the U.S.A. Apparently, when you log onto the website, they know where you are, and somebody else has the rights to show this in the U.S.A., but they don't use it. F-ing ba$tard$. Why deprive us of such as spectacle?!?!?

Well that sucks look like I will be looking for a proxy overseas so I can look like I'm located there.

Anyone know what the sound was for the seeding video, that song was cracking me up.

SIIIIIIIICK!!! Now this is a good thing to post! If you can't see the Freecaster footage, then what a bummer for you. It's fantastic. I am biting my nails for Peaty and my boy Aiello is out there rep'esentin' for the US in the Jr. Ex. category. I hope they both come back with some World Champs hardware.

Amen to that. I'd love to see Peaty FINALLY take it!
Realistically, though, I think Gee will take it by 0.5 seconds in front of Sam. By the footage I've seen, Gee seems to be on it, and he beat Sam in the seeding run.
