they ride ellsworth............thats like going from a wrc STI to a ford pintolthumbsdown:who's he riding for now?
OK DH Junkies, I hiked up to the new changes on the DH course. The hip jump is gone, instead you have stright shot off that same lip. it will BOOST you up on to a hill side then you are quick in to the trees and then a sweet lillte booster with a great landing, all this in the trees. Then you have a 75 degree right had turn to a lofty little road gap simimalr to Telluride drop but not as steep and a bit further gap. The new road gap is a mandatory air, but their is a go around line for those who are freaked out by this kind of feature. It comes back out on to the ski run and hits the old road gap in the narrow trees. Riders started arriving yesterday and the crowds are alreday showing up here this morning.
step up into trees, that sounds awsome.From racemsc.com:
cool blog alf, good to see you guys made is there.It was pouring today when we arrived. Not a person on the mountain as far a I can tell. Click on the link in my sig for a couple of pics I snapped of the skies....
If its the one I'm thinking of it was posted by Shawn Neer of The Fix Bicycles of Boulder, CO. Maybe he rides for Orbital, not sure of the difference. But I believe he races Semi Pro, maybe even pro this year, so yeah, wicked sweet fast!who was that riding the helmet cam, looked incredibly fast
