I like the the all-downhill, no peddling aspect of that sport, but I can't image going that speed through trees in the wet. Amazing skill. I feel lazier for watching it.

This is pretty much what i used to do.
It's all fun and games until you attempt to eat a tree.
The commentary was awesome, and the riding was amazing. That track was sodding wet, must've been sketchy as hell.
"...he's even gonna...WHOAAAA MY GOD!"
That was amazing.
I suppose I should just be happy my comparatively tiny, lightweight balls help on the climbs, being more of an XC than downhill guy...
My buddy Mike quit autocrossing and started doing downhill. It's berkeleying crazy. I get an injury report a couple times a year. He looked pretty funny with two broken wrists. Psycho.

If you noticed.. he was peddling in places
sunnuva!! That's amazing. Even if you don't care at all about the sport, the commentary is worth the 3 minutes of your life.

That's going on FaceBook....
They should get those guys to do color commentary at ChumpCar/Lemons races!
That is insanely awesome, is there a sanctioning body for this sort of thing in the US?
BTW, "peddling" is selling things, Danny was pedaling.
If you guys like this stuff, there's TONS of videos online of people doing this stuff.
"Freeride" is pretty berkeleying awesome as well.
Josh Bender is a MADMAN.
Search for New World Disorder videos. Some old AWESOME stuff there, including awesome soundtracks, and a dude downhill mountain biking. ON A UNICYCLE.
I'd have never made it out of the first corner.
The announcer was kind of excitable. The rider was definitely insane.
Just watched it again. Man, that is GREAT!
BTW, the original link doesn't work, for any that have not seen it, here you go.

DrBoost's link from a couple of posts above appears to be working.
