Eliot Jackson with the lowest and the dirtiest scrub. -Duncan Philpott
Luca Shaw leaned and scrubbed on the step down that has been taped to enforce mandatory scrubs this year. -Sven Martin
Brendog not whipping for a change. Loving the "natural" wood chip section. -Sven Martin
Ratboy leaned in on the flats. Yes flats. But expect the clips tomorrow. -Sven Martin
Gwin focused on precise line choice where millimeters equals milliseconds come race day. -Sven Martin
Marcelo throwing up roost like he's on a 450. Expect more of this and mud tomorrow. -Sven Martin
Danny Hart stump-hucking-one-foot-fast-plant. -Sven Martin

Josh was one of the earliest riders on the track this morning and smashed out back-to-back runs within a few minutes. Setting up for the right-hander like a boss. -Sven Martin
Peaty dog smashing scenic turns today. -Sven Martin
Eddie anticipated a quagmire today and came fully prepped. -Duncan Philpott

Switch, inverted, opposite nac-nac to fakie. @maddogboris

Gee Atherton dropping into the "steps not woods" section. It has been cut in nicely now but still poses a challenge to the riders with more than a few line options. -Sven Martin
The speed riders carry into this section of the track is unreal and these tweaks aren't for show. Full squash required. Mark Wallace with the timing chip on the fork, racing the clock. -Duncan Philpott
Eddie "man of the moment" Masters about to pass through the time tube. #panshotfriday -Sven Martin
Rachel Atherton and many others stopped in their timed runs, so no one really knows who is fastest here this weekend. -Sven Martin

Just a usual super rad whip from blenky! @maddogboris
Rupert was very vocal on the hate last night after track walk, yet today he was giddy with excitement and found the track rather fun. -Sven Martin
It's good to see Miranda Miller return from injury! Flying not-so-under-the-radar in an unusual non-black kit for her. -Duncan Philpott

Description

The drama of the altered track was soon forgotten as the sun came out and the ruts developed at the Leogang World Cup DH. Timed training took place today at the end of practice with Troy Brosnan, Tracey Hannah and Gaetan Vige going quickest. With rain in the forecast, the nerves are high, but that didn't slow down the shredding today. Sven, Duncan and @maddogboris drop the goods in fine fashion.
