Make it or don't. Depending on who you watch, this corner is incredibly tricky or a walk in the park. Amazing the difference a little skill makes.
Discuss the nose pivot technique in our forum
I think that's Rachel Atherton from the voice. And she's just so relax and able to comment for the rider infront of him. That's hard to do in a corner like that. That's a world class rider.
Awesome little video!..... But why oh why oh why are those limbs still across the trail like that? Is this about protecting the natural habitat etc? What about the riders? Obviously there are dangers involved in any race...but what about having a limb blatantly blocking the trail like that?
EWS is the first sport I've been interested in for a while. It reminds me of the old WRC days when you had many manufacturers with extremely talented drivers competing on the toughest roads around the world! So I do hope they start offering more coverage of it. I think it could become very popular if it were more out there because it's not as niche as Downhill and more exciting to watch than Tour De France.
Body position, body position, body position! Those that made stayed above their bike and those that failed were below their bike. A challenging corner for sure but if you understand how to corner you will be able to make it consistently.
I would say also it had to do a lot with line choice. The pros went out wide and avoided most of the really slippy stuff. Amazing how they can instantly adapt.
Say BetterRide.net, you seem to really know your stuff!! Is there perhaps a more in-depth resource where I could learn more about these fascinating techniques?

Sarsha Huntington giving the live commentary of Nico making the nose wheeling around the corner. Reckons she is pretty Sic too. And she is.
The Polar bear stopping on the tree and calling "that was nice" was pretty funny too.

Hey Karate,
It was Sarsha. Good friend of mine. You should see her face now, she went down in the pumptrack practice today.
