Elliot seems like such a joy to be around! Such a sick dude and does amazing things for the community!
Good to see Asa Vermette in here. He and Ali Ostgaard are going to be the next big stuff in downhill.
10:19 "Do you give a f... do you care what your bike looks like" 😆
Love the banter between Eliot and Henry! :)
mechenic asking pro riders about their bikes and throwing them off opening with the GOAT questions is pure gold, great stuff Quinney 👍👍
lol at henry stopping himself from asking asa if he gives a fuck about the mismatch
Glad I'm not the only one that caught that
Henry is working so hard. Everywhere I look on pinkbike I just see him. Someone bring Levy back to give the man a break
Excellent job, Henry 🤙
I did not want that to end. 😁
How soon we forget about Anne Caroline? Not taking away from Rachel's accomplishments, but AC was the default GOAT.
I love it rockshox !! ❤❤
Is it just me, or did the Trek seat tube at 24 sec look like it has a huge crack?
Just a mud mark mate.
Asa will be killing in a year or two when he gets out of the junior division
All time is quite a staple, i agree with Minaar, but what about John Tomac... i meen... yeh Tomac!
That was good entertainment!
cool
please make sure no one misunderstands, norco has a low pivot alloy aurum dh bike as well, that rides completely differently than the high pivot HSP carbon aurum. the crestline looks dope.
OK Sheldon 😂
Yeah and Blenky would've ridden most of the Aurum generations, he rode for Norco for 6 years..
They've also just revealed a new prototype DH bike.. Looks the goods, and nothing like the old gen Aurum, HSP, or Range.
My favorite segment of my favorite CZcams Channel
Valli Höll is great, love her.
oh Henry them glasses mate, you been there too long
Nicolas Vouilloz and Anne Caroline Chausson are the two goats for me.
Can't believe nobody mentioned either Nicolas Vouilloz or Anne Caroline. Objectively (numbers), they are the two best DH riders of all time. Minaar and Rachel are close seconds though. Don't forget those legends guys!
Guess they included personality, and results, it’s a personal choice 🤣🤣
Thought the same, also I am partial to Greg/Rachel because they are from the era that I have been watching WCDH, maybe the same for some of the racers on this video?
Where is YT Tues?
Loam is actually mineral soil. It is found beneath the organic matter which is the top surface which is called duff.
Vali: "male??" 🥰
On the booger sugar hey?
Wow, anyone notice how just like todays SUV's, downhill mountain bikes are all starting to look the same? Weird
They all look pretty different, actually.
Actually they look alot different from each other than they used to.. Have a look at late 90s photos when different brands, like Giant, Haro, Foes, litterally just re-stickered the same Intense M1 frame.. While some methodologies might be similar, the differences in linkage & pivots is way more diverse than even just 10 years ago..
@@danharvey3096 you're wrong about Foes they made their own frames
The dude talking about the steering stabilizer on the canyon didn’t sound convinced that it’s actually a good thing. Lol
love quinney
