Easily my favorite Sven/EWS preview of so far and up there for best overall track preview. That was great!

ekard Added a reply to Curtis Keene Teases New Specialized Tires
2/27/2017 4:59pm This tire was also explicitly shown and mentioned in the old Pinkbike link from last year. It's definitely the Hillbilly and for some reason Keene has it mounted backwards of its original intended direction (maybe he knows something we don't).

12/17/2015 11:42am The "golden era" is always referred to with respect to wealth and popularity of mtb gravity racing in the US, but certainly not with respect to the technology. What were some of the biggest headaches or compromises you and your racers faced with the bikes while trying to win NORBA titles?

1/9/2015 8:21am You bet. Do keep in mind that by having multiple riders on each bike we have a system of checks and balances in place. The same was true last year and the year before.

ekard Added a comment about feature Meet The Testers - 2015 Vital MTB Test Sessions
1/8/2015 10:02pm Great background as always, but there's one major detail I'd love to see: can we get a disclosure for any current sponsors that the test riders have (especially bike, suspension, components, and/or tires if any)? I'd like to think that they're all giving unbiased reviews regardless, but last year there was at least one rider who was sponsored by one of the bike companies that was being tested. It would be nice to have that acknowledged before reading all the reviews.

9/2/2014 2:27pm Neither Gwin nor Ratboy ride for RockShox. ...but they could always have a tiebreaker of participating in the Boxxer world champs.

4/22/2014 2:50pm These features are a lot of fun. The links and audio in the graphics are great bonus. Gwin to win and hoping for Troy to make a statement with this race. Also very surprised to see no mention of Tracy...

Refreshing change of pace. Wouldn't mind more xc slideshows. There's always references to the xc races in the dh slideshows that tease more than anything else. If it's got two wheels and knobby tires, Vital slideshows can keep it compelling.

ekard Added a comment about press release Martyn Ashton Suffers Significant Spinal Injury
9/12/2013 2:17pm Horrible news about a great cyclist. Spent a lot of time watching his clips and reading about him in MBUK when I was growing up. Hoping the best for his recovery.
