Varaxis Added a comment about video Markus Stöckl Sets New Downhill Bike Speed Record

The video seemed a bit anticlimactic. Maybe it was because of the dudes in spandex hugging each other. Maybe if he was using that speed to cross a 100+ ft gorge... I guess when I saw Evil and bikes, I thought of Evel Knievel.

I think the silent pelvic thrust cheer would throw me off most if I saw that. Silent cheer and silent arm pump would too, but their movements are too common that I would usually just pass by without giving it a second thought. All the others, I would just think that the crowd is bonkers.

The section leading up to 1:27 and just after... seeing pros fly through that section was just mind blowing. That wall is the only thing that doesn't change at Southridge/Fontana. There's so many strips of dirt leading down that hill...

Don't blow up the neck brace topic under this man's photo... there's already enough threads disputing their worth. Go Gwin!

Anyone have the lowdown on how JD's run on the 2951 at Fontana SRC Pro DH went? I only know of his result for sure, but rumors are that JD was a bit out of shape and it was a pedally course and he could've easily got a few extra places if he had a bit more aerobic ability.

I just started wearing a 661 Evo Pressure Suit. The small 2010 version was on sale at extreme sports protection for $135 after $100 off and a 10% off returning customer code. Fits well under all my jerseys, breaths well, and gives a decent amount of protection. It tries to absorb impact, instead of deflecting like a hardshell would, but...

I was gonna say the POM isn't all that great in detail, color, exposure, but seems pretty good for stability and a decently wide angle, but then see that it's the iPhone that's the hardware... not bad, considering how low my expectations of a iPhone are. Fix the exposure and color and you got a good cam. It's freaky to see the dirt turn from brown, to purple, to yellow, to black. The neon yellow/green bars and handlebar look so different in rider POV than from a cameraman POV from the front of the bike. The cam is a bit...

Let me try to bottom that beast! I could've too. I parked behind him on practice day while he was setting up his bike and found myself staring at it. He told me he was selling it for just 2k. Looked fairly mint.
