    I got invited to the Fox US Open of MTB best whip, and figured now was the perfect time to try my hand at being a professional downhill racer. Some of the best riders from all around the world came to KIllington Mountain Bike Park to send themselves down a gnarly course. I figured this would be a perfect first downhill race for me.

    Man, you were flying in that section just before the tree took all your kinetic energy. That was a savage crash, amazed you got back up but glad your okay. Keep up with the vids, always entertaining and great riding.

    Holy crap Jay, i thought you'd broken yourself for sure on the tree. So great to see you having a crack at anything. I'm in Paris for the weekend. Went to a skate spot and there was a flea market there with tons of people. So I got a stunt scooter for $10 to cruise around on instead of walking everywhere, which is tons of fun.
    Found another spot, but no one on bmx, which was a little disappointing, but hey.

    I always watch this sort of thing and think it's the closest thing to rallying on two wheels. Do you fully memorise the full course with the runs you get before or are there certain bits you are dealing with on the fly each time?

    • @jaydalton
      @jaydalton  Před 8 měsíci +1

      It really is. I did my best to memorize the layout, but it’s hard to remember every line you have to take and rocks/roots/stumps to dodge.
      With so many people on the course it changes A LOT every single run (as I experienced in my finals run 😂)
