"Must be a very rare pokemon." Haha. Would be more entertaining to watch them try to catch that rare pokemon at speed on that track in the trees.

The comment 'physical' maybe applicable, but technical it ain't ? Is it me, or am i missing something ? Where are the rock drops, chutes, near vertical switchbacks etc ? this just seems to be flat out...

@9:11...that isn't a decent enough drop for an enduro course on a 6" travel bike?

I ride a pretty steep gnarly trail regularly and have seen gopro footage that make it seem like nothing. Looks can be deceiving.

@m0dest: nah, he's right, aspen is just flat out sections mixed with tight single track. And that little drop was really one of the only features...some of the other EWS venues are far more technical.

Either way, certainly doesn't take away from the fact that Fabien is absolutely flying ...and casually throwing in legit manuals at speed

Compared to some of the rock gardens in the round in Ireland this seemed pretty tame.

@3.20 I'll just let my dog wander around off the lead as riders are practising this flat out stage,what's the worst that can happen?

Stage 2 looked the most fun for me; fast narrow single track with plants hitting your legs...yummy!

And I have to say that I'm envious of Fabien's wheelie skills. The best I can do is a few seconds and I am always at the limit of control at that! Been a mountain biker for more than 20 years and wheelies like his still elude me.
