 Brilliant. This video just urges the viewer to ride more. Fantastic work by the editing team. It's videos like this that keep me enthralled with the enduro format of racing. Best of luck to Leov with his recovery.

 Excellent coverage! I never expected this could happen, but I am actually enjoying the EWS coverage as much as the WC DH coverage... dare I say it perhaps even more. Big thanks to the production team - keep up the good work!

 I think this is the best video pinkbike's done to date for the Enduro world series. Bravo!

 Dear PinkBike, Please please continue this format of coverage for not only Enduro races but maybe even DH races. The edit, the imagery, the feel of the race, the downs for Josh, Nico, and Justin, the ups for Tracey and Richie. It is just amazing. I look forward to these edits every time I hear EWS event coming up. Hope that one day I can be lucky enough to race in one of these events. Thank you

 Yes, more! Thank you for showing that this site is good for more than four-minute "shreddits". Quality reporting, an eloquent host in Richard, great production value, and drama right to the end. Bang on, Pinkbike.

 Wow. That's what i call a wrap up. Great coverage!

 Nico Turner... you are an awesome editor. Thank you for the incredible content you and your team have been putting out on the EWS. The best MTB content I have seen in a long time. The combination of story telling, music choice and the variety of footage make for amazing viewing.

 I thought the Schwalbe Procore was supposed to help fight flats? Two Schwalbe riders got flats at this event and 2 at the Windam DH and I think one or two at the DH round in Canada. Are they not using sealant or UST tires? Pretty sure they are using the Procore because the tire stays on the rim. Just seams odd that they are getting flats with all the sales hype around it.
  • 2 2
 I would suggest them just to leave Procore and start using another brand of tires. Simple.
  • 4 1
 They mustn't have been fitted by a registered ProCore dealer. Wink

 Procore is said to be detonating rims

 Anyone know what tires Nico Lau and Josh Carlson were running? Super Gravity or Snakeskin?

 Yeti SB6c is obviously the fastest bike out there, I must buy one to dominate local races

 Actually...it might be. I rode one at Outer-Bike, among many, and it is freakin amazing how good it is... But, yes, I concur with the inferred point it is always the rider.

 love my Yeti's! want an SB6 next

 I dont have one now but had 4 in the past and to me is the best bike. I had a co sponsorship from them some time ago and met everybody at the factory. Great place with a Big Mexican flag in the welding booth. Cheers

 You're wrong, WAKI... it is a flux capacitor, but you won't know that until 2017.

 So did anybody saw any riding footage of the free riders? thats the only thing i missed in this video

 How many riders that come in 88th get video time? None.

The fact that that they came 88th (or whatever it was) speaks volumes about how strong the EWS riders need to be, both technically and physically.
  • 1 0
 Whats your point? they interviewed them, how many riders that come 88th get interviewed?
  • 1 0
 Exactly! That's enough isn't it?

 Well no they talked about the riding o it would be good to see them ride now just just tell half the story

 This is exactly what I like to see when I look for enduro coverage. Thanks!

 Great coverage, great edit. Commentating could be better though. Needs more excitement.
  • 5 0
 Saying that they are climbing 4,273m is a bit disengenuous, no? Maybe 1,000m, if that.

 I was wondering the same thing. How much elevator did they have to pedal? My friend did it last year and said it was the toughest race he's ever done.

 Posting another comment in the hopes that enough input means we'll get to see more of these edits. This definitely makes we want to go ride. Would love to see this kind of coverage for each of the venues around the world. Keep it up!

 Richie rude good for you dude shows that u can be the best at enduro and if he wanted dh congratulations keep the hard work going

 This videos are great, I just wish they showed the overall standings after each stage instead of just the top stage times.
  • 2 0
 hey pinkbike, if you can also do this on the DH races. This edit/coverage rocks!
  • 1 0
 Pretty sure this coverage is filmed, edited and produced directly by Enduro World Series and Pinkbike merely hosts the videos. We'd have to petition Red Bull to get the same kind of DH coverage.

 Props to Nico Quere for getting his first top 15

 Does anyone know if these trails are signalles as in.. If I go to whistler could I ride these trails without a map?
  • 1 0
 All the trails are on Trailforks and easy enough to find. You'll need a bike park pass for Top of the World, Dusty's DH and Stage 5 down from Garbo.

 Fantastic that this race format allowed this to happen so we could see how amazing style-type riders stack up against the superfit, race hardened enduro riders. Tough going init lads!
