So we're all correct, it is a yeti/pivot/evil. Just a Chinese knock-off version. *this is a joke, I don't want another lewis v trickstuff argument.

That's my point. There are already teams and potential funding in US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and potentially South America. They are not going to develop if we wait for euro-centric mega team to be comfy. The goal is not to bring the euro show abroad but to give a chance to other entities. if some small euro teams disappear, maybe some others will appear. BTW most mega teams (Specialized, Trek, SRAM, Fox, etc) already have resources across the world. I don't buy the idea that Loic, Amaury, Vali won't show up out of the Europe, their team will find...

The new stumpy makes me extremely happy...about my current stumpy evo! Nothing about the new stumpy makes me "want" it. Even the side strut on the old evo adds a bit of character compared to the new one...

I realize that most rock gardens and features are man-made, but when they look like that...it just feels weird, and more-than-manufactured. The 2-lane rack garden just seems problematic as mentioned above, but also that section of wood rounds - it looks cool on camera, but has anyone ridden something like that? It just seems different for the sake of different. On another note, that video was painful to watch. I haven't watched many (if any) XC "course walk' videos, but that gave me no feel for the track. They just kept showing different angles of the few interesting-looking features on...

I want to see footage from sections we haven't seen at a race that we get all of the time. I also want to see the new sections. I'd also like to see the sections that are causing the most trouble or where the "race is won." If WB/Discovery doesn't want to make it available in a broadcast, then make it available to download. The cameras are in place, run them.

Probably the most gnarly feature seen in any MTB competition in a while. All the wood features remind me of how rampage started getting too many man made additions in the early 2000’s. Hopefully Hardline doesn’t go down this path and looks to add more technical additions to in future events.

I still enjoy Hardline, but I think I preferred it back when there was more tech and it was less about the jumps.
