  • Me and my team mate Max headed to Schockl, Graz to ride some DH.
    This track was awesome, 4 and a half minutes of epic trail, with a sweet jump line at the end!
    The question is, is it the hardest bike park trail in Europe?
    Let me know in the comments.

    You can only fully appreciate this run if you've seen the trail in person. It's gnarly.

    My word. 4m30 would be where i change my underpants for the first time, nevermind finishing. Seeing a pro riding the trails you know really puts into perspective how bonkers fast they are. Hats off to you Danny, great footage! I'm going to lie down now for a bit and process what i just witnessed.

    I am so glad to see world-class elite rider struggling there. I almost thought I'm crazy when I thought this track is ridiculous. For my recreational level it was barely unrideable on some sections. Anyways, Gibim is awesome :)

    OMG! HAHA That speed and pumping looks so unreal! WTF! When this track looks that hard on Gopro I can imagine how crazy it is in real life! Unbelievably steep and technical! If you look for another really difficult track here in Austria you have to check the new Prolitzen at the Gerlitzen in Carinthia/Kärnten. This is the same type of track!

    Insane how easy Danny makes it look. I tried to ride this track a month ago, how hard cold it be, right? Very, let me tell you. Many of the sections were barely ridable for me, even after walking fist and looking for the smoothest line.

    • @magicshroom4
      @magicshroom4 Před 9 měsíci

      This is literally crazy to see. As a mountain biker who loves big jumps and have 0 problem riding any downhill tracks... I have to say... Schöckl it's not worth it for non-pro riders (training ground) in my opinion... Reward will never outweigh risk on such rough terrain. Steep, sharp and pointy rocks with a lot of steepness as well. If you fall be prepared to get few stitches in best case... (I've been there 1 week ago and I literally walked lower part of downhill track because I didn't feel like taking a risk just to feel good...)
      "No f*cking way someone actually ride this" was my reaction to the lower part of that DH track. + conditions in the video are 100 times better then last week. So imagine riding steep, sharp terrain without being able to stop.

    Oh yeah! Home sweet home! In 2014 I broke my wrist at 2:51 😅😅 it's amazing to see one of the best riding our home track! Unbelievably fast! If the gopro wouldn't stabilize the video so much, everybody could feel what you had felt when filming! 🥁🍻☄️

    So do u set the rebound super quick for stuff like that? I’m thinking back to your vid with Guy Martin when he said he set his suspension up like a pogo stick so it could cope with the bumps.

  • @thedadtones8360

    Having ridden Schoeckl back in 2014, I think the Nordkette Trail in Innsbruck is harder (not even sure whether it would work with a modern super long DH bike). Haven't ridden the Feuerkogel Trail and it looks closed this year, but videos here on YT suggest that it also has a legit claim to the title hardest bikepark trail in Europe. Good luck for the upcoming season!

    • @danny_hart
      @danny_hart  Před 3 lety

      Interesting!
      I have never rode that trail in Innsbruck.

    • @thedadtones8360
      @thedadtones8360 Před 3 lety

      Might be worth a visit for a fun day (but perhaps not WC training, as the track is so different), if you are in Innsbruck anyway.

    • @floimschnee4275
      @floimschnee4275 Před 3 lety

      I think Feuerkogel and Schöckl are equal in terms of difficulty.
      Nordkette: quite some time ago that I've been there. I think it is even harder.
      All of them great for sure!

    The schöckl trailcenter is ridiculous. On their homepage the trails look like fun singletrails. But they are not 😂 First time I went there I had a 130mm trailbike 🤷‍♂️ You should ride this tracks in rain. They will become a nightmare.

      It is definitely more technical than most current World Cup tracks.
