Minnaar's winning run http://www.freecaster.com/1000188_1005742 Listen closely to the commentary near the end of the run. :lol:
Ya know whats sick? He was so smooth it looked as though he was not going that fast ... "He's holdin' his nuts know ..." :lol:
For anyone that thinks downhill is easy... ...this footage shows just how much gas it takes to ride downhill in a competitive setting. This track looked as painful as the Southridge "Wall". Super cool to see the mix of tracks this year--some super technical and steep and then others that require a ton of fitness (like this one). For anyone not following this year's World Cup series, this has been one of the most exciting and competitive in recent years. Sam Hill's domination is not going unchallenged as Minnaar's fitness and health is back on par, Gee is stepping it up, and Peaty is as determined and fit as he has ever been. Not only that, the women's DH is super exciting as the young Rachel Atherton battles veteran Sabrina Jonnier. Check out http://www.freecaster.com for footage and http://www.dirtmag.co.uk for stories. Super cool.
