 that's what I like about a world cup dude, no frills, only pure efficiency. much prettier to see than shredders of bike park

 So pinned, love the ending.

 That manual at the end... The whole clip was a demonstration of pure control. I`d love to see an in the know video with Sam Hill. Sram, please give us an edit with the legend!
  • 5 1
 Monarch87, yes that would so cool!! I hope for an awesome Sam Hill edit long time ago
  • 5 2
 Does anyone know the Song btw?
  • 40 1
 Hungary & Italy's flags are the same, just rotated 90 degs.
  • 15 2
 I will third the motion for an in the know with Sam. He has been a long time blackbox rider so it would only make sense. Sram if you're listening a Sam Hill edit would make up for all those shitty Elixir brakes you put out!

 @Yt-shredder the song is: Young Tapz - Place Like This

 Super loose, and the bridge jump to manual...........................................

 screw that, listen to how hard he rails the corners. jeeeezus he's flying around those things.
  • 4 0
 Yes, for someone who rides these trails weekly, this bridge is not small at all, impressive. The whole thing is impressive, wow.
  • 2 0
 the bridge doesnt look 30ish foot in the video like it is in reality.. jumping it like that is insane.

 His cornering is unbelievable

 Shot at 2:11! Connor is sooo loose. Would be sick to see him get a win this year.
  • 49 1
 Wow, Connor is an animal. That was amazing.
  • 45 1
 Daaaaaaaaammn. Ridiculous. Bromont is super technical and he makes it look like nothing.

 In The Know never fails to deliver! And Connor freakin killed it! Stoked to ride at 7 in the evening Frown

 Connor, you da man! Holdin' it down for AUS, props.

 That is so fast. I wonder why we don't see more regular videos from the guys at the top of the dh wc, they really are the best riders in the world and often we don't get to see it except for rare moments like this. I can only think of , norco, spesh, saracen have good coverage, doing what is mostly just race reports, not also regular (?) riding. I think its only syndicate , team ur and lapierre doing it at the moment right?

 Connor has a few videos out. There are a couple on vimeo that are really good.
  • 3 1
 Lack of time and $ are why.
  • 3 1
 How lack of time? Money I can understand...but surely these guys are riding lots....
  • 2 1
 Some guys are paid to produce content, some guys are paid to produce results. Top WC riders generally spend the bulk of their "free" time during the season training. I'm sure it's possible to make more vids with these guys, but during the season, it'd make sense to me that their sponsors generally want to keep them focused on racing, not filming.
  • 2 0
 That's fair enough I guess. In a lot of other top sports it might be the same I guess? Although when you are a champion a part of your job also becomes being a figurehead.

 Anyone no where I can get some grip like that through corners? Holy crap...
  • 34 0
 3 days of rain, then 4 days of sun, then 1 day of rain, 2 days of sun and then go ride, with new tyres...
...oh... and some skills Smile

 In Greece we have "poudra" (dust)and loose "kotrones" (rocks)caused by intense "xeraïla"(drought), so finding grip is pretty much a myth for us here.

 Seeing him rip the trails I ride every weekend is awesome. You really have to know the trails to understand how freaking ridiculous his riding really is.

  • 1 1
 euh ...... no
  • 5 2
 Looks fast because its shot in mostly 24p i'm pretty sure, but mostly because he is fast.
  • 10 1
 For those of you that thought I was claiming they sped the video up, ease up, perhaps you've missed the sarcasm. I thought Connors video was one of the better speed through terrain videos I've seen. He rode all of the terrain like a boss. His presence on the top step is bound to come.
