Well they're not entirely meaningless... I mean uh... they tell you that uh... whoa, hey guys, Ragot is up by 23 seconds and up by almost a minute and a half on Hannah!
I want Sam Hill to win, and everyone else to lose. I believe that expressing this opinion will help me (sorry, will help Sam) achieve that goal. So help me, sorry, him God
with ya on this, waki. it's time again for hill. i believe (could be wrong) sam is the rider originally responsible for warner's "look at the time!". hehe
Mnaeee, I don't really care who wins. It's a race so someone will win and be happy. I dobt even have time to watch it, but Im happy that so many people will. So as much as I truly like Sam's style recognize his achievements and iconic runs, I was just trolling.
why are you waxin poetic w/shakespeare? (i don't actually know if that's william. it just sounds like it...hehe) waki soliloqueys remixes. drop a beat behind it next time
No, in the same way you can't 'win' qualis. Qualification gives the start order of the race. Fastest in qualification is the last down the mountain. Only finals gives the rider points for the overall.
Looks like a lot of riders chose not to do this timed practice. Even Rachael pulled a 52 minute run according to this sheet. Maybe she rode back to the top lol. Luca Shaw looking to do big things this weekend.
He took a beater on one of the rock slab sections. Dan Brown said he went "all the way down it". I guess we'll see in the morning how banged up he is. He seems to have a bit of a curse on this track - which is too bad because he is also really fast here.
OK I do love the top 3 atm, I do love Steve Smith too ( maybe a bit too much) But I'm so glad to see Minaar im top 5 ! I always rooted for him and peaty since the begining of my WC history. GO get them Minaar! Styles for miles and inspiration for me as a rider! I'll be screaming for all of those nuts on the track tough!
Smiths winning time last year was 3.58 and I dont think the changes to the course will have done a vast amount to slow the track.
You have to assume that Harts time is well off full race pace. For the girls, Ragot took the win in 4.25 last year so she is sand bagging and its not even worth looking at the other times. I dont understand the point of timed practice, I bet their own on board timing gives them sectional speed info they use for more meaningful info.
Hart looked like he was going full on. I saw him as he was entering the first woods and he was already breathing really hard. The new top is slower (but not slow), but also cuts off some distance, so not sure what that does for times. I think slower than last year.
is it just my comp spazzing out or is the womens sheet all messed up? as far as i can tell myriam nicole now rides for "coffee cal" and gee athertons sis is called Razkel Atsertol
Timed training, yeah good to see SH and DH at top, but this is not qualis or seeding runs, timed training hello, hence why lot of big names at back at mo, get excited just dont read too much on most big names yet, plus top 20 are protected!
If 650b was actually that much faster, based on how greg and josh have been doing all season they should be placing many seconds above first place, their results look pretty standard.......Marketing ploy or facts?
You mad Bro? haha No one has switched to a 650 all season and have increased their results. It really isnt doing anything. Its just a marketing. Ive ridden them and I like them but to say they are faster......that's just a lie.
yeah, i genuinely am. i have been riding mtbs since the mid 90s and this is undoubtedly the biggest blow to the sport ive seen. im interested to see if santa cruz get any more 1-2s this season....
It is not that legit, this is just timed practice. The only ones that take it kinda serious is us, the speculators. Wait until quali or the race day to make valid statements

Except how you were wrong about everything you said in that comment. Winner of qualies get 50 points.
Yeh yeh it's only timed training, bla bla bla...
it's only timed practice
