 finally a video with some real technical riding in it, a nice change of pace from the smooth jump trail vids that frequent the home page with noticeable regularity. however, all i could think about when they were bombing down those root gardens was 62º head angle, 62º head angle, and more 62º head angle, still havent decided if i like that idea yet, and it can be kicked out to 60º. i mean going fast is sick especially when it gets gnarly, but its not champery, the wheel base would be 9 feet.

 snazzy, try to whip a bit more and get sideways for some extra style though

 I'm not sure exactly where they were in the Alps, maybe Morzine or Chatel, but wherever it was is steeper than shit. That 62 head angle would be sweet where they were riding, and it didn't look like it was bothering them.

 Its Morgins just over the Swiss border from Chatel, or at least the first bit is! Not the steepest as far as alpine riding goes but best mix of tech and speed and a lot of fun!

 Morgins (where at least some of this film) is a valley over from Champery.

 @team-robot, oh of course it looks fun! i was just questioning how such a long wheel base would affect handeling when it gets tight. but i would love to try one!
  • 2 1
 Hermit, my operator works just fine and it's got a substantially longer wheelbase!

 Morgins is too much fun, went there for 1 day this summe could have easily stayed longer. Top section is super smooth then you can get so loose on the bottom half

 Slack angles are awesome for everything except climbing and steep jumps.
  • 1 0
 Yes definately morgins in the first part. awesome what ben shaped there and a good alternation from chatel.
@Tomb-2 the black run in the lower part on the very right side (you have to cross the meadow after the drops and roots)..there it is steep as shite i thought. have you been at that part??? it is not very obvious so you might have missed that.
  • 2 1
 Yeah, it kinda IS Champéry. It's just over the mountain, and it's the same guy who builds/maintains the trails, who by the way also designed the bike.

Morgins is about as far from Champéry as Whistler is from Blackcomb. And the trails are steeeeeep.

 I dontknow if there is a misunderstanding but i really meant morgins only. the black run lower part...didnt mean champery at all iknow where that is and i know switzerland better than germany...
