As much as people seem to already complain about less riders on the start list, more expensive costs and all. I kinda wonder if it actually won't help the sport become more professional? I've been following downhill racing for a while now and the days where anybody could just show up to a wc and get a top 10 are getting smaller and smaller. Within the last ten years we've seen the sport evolve to a point that if you're not a top shape athlete putting in the hours, you ain't gonna cut it. I find it similar to F1...

Whatever electronic suspension wizardry are they using, you don't find two seconds in such a short piece of track unless you are taking some crazy line that no one else saw, and ride it to perfection (that line and the whole way down) Bruni is truly Jordan, Rossi, Minnaar material, one special type of athlete that can turn it to...

The only Swiss junior woman on the entry list is Delia Da Mocogno. Fairly sure it's her in the crash as her insta shows her on a Commencal with Boxxer. https://www.instagram.com/p/CheXOUDN6eP/

ahhhhhh, so just a crazy coincidence that a Junior rider has the exact same race number as Connor and they both ride a Forbidden. I'll happily retire from sleuthing RAW videos now.

I hate to say it, but DH World Cup events are not "The sport". World Cup racing is extremely dangerous and demanding, and being profesionalized for me is the right thing. I mean, it is cool for privateers to be able to race with all the top pros, but in most occasions they will be loosing money, time and sometimes...

This topic would make a great video for someone to film at the next WC pit, just sayin'. We've heard from the armchair racers, what about the real racers!

In ski they bend the poles all the time, hell, they even have specific gear in shinguards and handguards to punch them flat... I see no problem at all with Walker's photo. Did he miss any poles? (as in passing by one riding to the outside of the tape) --- Not in my opinion Also, that particular point of...

The poles don't matter, the tape is the track. And you can abandon the track anytime you want, there is no DQ for leaving it... The only rule is, you must re-enter between the same two poles that you left, wich Angel did obviously, because otherwise, he would have to break the tape again to enter. It is the only...

Revisting this video really makes me miss Amaury. https://youtu.be/JDiyOBVD4hw?t=1105 How different would this discussion (and Suarez's run) be if the poles were not "safe", ie were rigid unyielding pieces of metal. Interesting that the safety component adds to the ambiguity.

I think this is a reasonable way to look at it - and leaves little ambiguity. Personally I see the poles as being part of the track "walls" in combination with tape. Flexible walls. If its OK to bend the pole at all, with no clear or enforceable limit to angle, then should be OK to bend flat. If its OK to bend the pole with body and bike, including bars and pedals, it should be OK to use the tires (and there is precedent as already mentioned). Airborne or grounded should make no difference as that is too open...

All past DQs aside I think we can all agree that if a pole is leaning that you can jump over the inside of it. Which would imply that the tip of the pole is the boundary. So if you can jump over it, why can't you ride over it? Jumping over it is even more questionable because it would require many camera angles to properly judge whether or not the wheels went beyond the tip of the pole in the most extreme case.

the track is the tape, not the poles. The pole's mission is to define the segments. in my opinion, he leaves the course by breaking the tape after pole "A" and re-enters before pole "B". Since there is no poles skipped, he re-enters in the same segment, so I think there is no reason dor a DQ... the sequence is...

BIG shout out to Boris, Sven, and Dan, and all world cup/ews photographers for that matter. The coverage you guys provide every race is phenomenal... From the photos (and editing), to the interviews, to being out there through thick and thin, you guys are the heros of mountain bike racing. There's a lot of people that don't get enough credit for doing what they do for racers and the world cup, but I have to tip my hat to the photographers that not only inspire me, but make mountain biking the best sport with the best coverage in the world...

So, the flip switch is in the "low" bb position in this pictures, is that right? Congrats GT on making it to the top again with a new bike! Martin is a beast!
