Would love to see Rach roll up , kick the doors down and walk away with 100k. That would be the MTB story of the year.

9/17/2025 6:28am Laurie for Vali? He hasn't had the same success Nina's had over the past few years and I feel like it'd make more sense to replace him than her.

9/16/2025 2:15pm I stand corrected, but how long ago was that and how many years has it been since they've had a female on the DH Factory Team? Are there any other World Cup DH teams without an elite woman?

9/16/2025 10:06am Vali to Specialized would be a pretty strong (and overdue) first female elite rider to the Factory Racing team...

9/15/2025 10:18am I have unofficial confirmation from a local shop that it's the new Bottle Rocket.

9/11/2025 6:53am Even if Jackson and Bruni have a bit of a rivalry going, I think it comes from wanting to be the best and having an incredibly high level of competition. I don't think it comes from anything personal. On the other hand, I kinda think Vali is having a hard time not being the fastest woman on the track this...

9/10/2025 9:47am I don't think I've seen anything to indicate "fake" stoke. For the most part, most riders seem to be excited for each other. Except Jordan Williams. I don't think I've ever seen him look happy, even if he's on the podium.

I can confirm Jackson was genuinely happy to win the World Championship

I'm not sure how you do that without eliminating all spectators pre race.

I'll be sold on Jackson when he finally posts a POV of a winning run during which he chatters away and never breathes heavily, the way he does in his course previews. 😉

9/9/2025 6:38am I find it hard to root against Jackson for a bunch of reasons: 1. He's obviously a generational talent on a bike. 2. He looks like he has fun every time he gets on the bike, whether it's practice, in a race or at the local dirt jumps. 3. (Maybe the most important to me) He seems to be stoked...

9/8/2025 2:15pm I seem to get all the shoe luck, but also don't have super picky feet. My buddy got me a pair of mid-top Impact Pro's from TJ Maxx for $32usd a couple of months ago in Texas. They had a whole stack of options at the time. Also love my 2F0 DH's (sometimes go on crazy sales on the Spec...

9/5/2025 7:32am I don't necessarily love Orbea, but having the ability to make the Rallon either a world cup level DH bike or an enduro bike is pretty cool. Not exactly a value proposition if you're swapping suspension and drivetrain, but I still like that it can be done. I also really like what Shimano is doing with CUES/Linkglide. Affordable and durable...

In Jackson's preview video there was a 3 second segment where I thought I heard him breathing heavy. I hope he's feeling okay!😄

9/3/2025 9:22am The 13-14 year age difference aside, the really problematic part for me is the fact that he was/is still her boss, and that relationship began when she was a teenager. If he was her teacher or coach at school and they started dating shortly after she graduated people would be up in arms. How is this any different?

9/3/2025 8:04am It was the same in Les Gets. I was surprised to see the YT Mob Sprinter van/pop up tent combo when everyone else had big truck/trailer set-ups. Especially because they were close to the double decker Orbea truck.

I thought I'd seen it all... But then I saw someone hate on Bgoldstone in the Vital forums. A dark day indeed. (I can only assume they tagged the wrong person? Bgoldstone might be the most objective info, non-opinionated poster in the entire forum.)

the other big rumor at crankworx this year (and last year, so who knows) was a hardline squamish or north van stop. timing before whistler WC would be pretty ideal, eh?

8/27/2025 9:50am Wyn hinted at a new Hardline stop on the track walk when chatting with Finn and Roger. Jackson hinted at something closer to home (I think on one of the Tasmania vlogs with Matt Jones). Would be definitely be cool to see another stop.
