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.

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.

Was trying to figure out where that long left hand wooden berm was that she was riding... until i realized they flipped that shot horizontally. IMO, the changes to Gypsy have been more for the worst. They admit in the film that they're intentionally slowing down certain sections. What they don't discuss is the removal of any sense of natural terrain and a complete replacement with wooden berms, connected by flat trail, interrupted by awkward, up-hill jumps. It's not done yet, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed that there's some semblance of rough natural trail on the lower half. Otherwise...

k.shiz, I'm disappointed in you. "The Bouncing Chezk" is Libor, not Petr... Luckily they're both equally fun to watch ride. Thanks for the vid.

Yes, yes you do look like an ass. That video may be pretty old at this point, but I don't know if there's anyone else in the world who's done a rail gap (trials-style) to barspin. Might not be the prettiest thing in the world, but it's a hell of a combination of two different types of riding...
