 The lack of music is very refreshing, just the sound of a rider and his bike shredding down some sick trails. Props on the video and great filming/editing too.

 That DH bike looked so stable, makes me wonder if my suspension needs some serious adjustment cause I feel like if I hit the same sections, same lines I would get bucked like a cowboy. Then again maybe I just suck haha!

 Having no Slomo shots or lame music makes up for the goggles on the xc lid. Great video.

 It's the first video in some time where I was thinking that's what nature experiences when out. Like what is this animal. Dug the bike sounds as well, lack of brakes used or heard, and little to no pedaling with 100% speed. Great job. outstanding

 it is nice to just hear the bike free-hub and tires instead of some dumb dub-step song. also it is nice to know i am not the only one who takes a sip of water out of their hydration pack and blows it into their face to cool off on a climb. SICK EDIT!!!!

 That guy is a talented rider. This is how I want to ride. Fast, controlled and loose. I will never jump super crazy stuff, I will never double whip, but if I can learn to ride with this much control I will have achieved everything I want to accomplish in this sport. The lack of music in Last scene in Hexagone and this video is refreshing. I love the bike sounds in nature, this video gets me stoked to ride.

 What are those fluro yellow calipers and where can i get me some!?!?

 Probably Magura MT7's
  • 13 1
 Hello Jcupit,

It is Magura MT7 Gold edition ; only 16 samples. For the moment, it is only for R&D pilot. The bright yellow finish is for team riders only at the moment, but word on the street is that Magura will offer it for everyone soon...

Cheers,

Jordan BAUMANN.

 Une belle vidéo qui sort du "tout-venant" quelque peu standardisé. Avec ce son en prise directe, la vidéo s'arme d'une troisième dimension au charme ravageur pour qui partage les mêmes vibrations que son vélo... et pilote à l'oreille. On revit ces moments par procuration,... nous sommes tous sur le même vélo que Jordan pendant ces 3 minutes. :-]

 One of the last real conversations I can remember having with my dad was how much I love the sounds of mountain biking. This video really captures what I meant. Fantastic

 Great video and super refreshing to hear the sounds of the bike flying down the trail! Anyone know what kind of bike he's riding??? Must be a pretty versatile frame, using it with 2 different forks and all. Hell of a rider, that dude can rip.

 I think there is two commençal bikes. a meta and a supreme.
  • 2 0
 Hello pujo169, Faul is right, it is Commencal bikes. First one is Meta SX 26inch, second one is Supreme DH. In fact, it is two differents bike. Thanks for watching, Cheers, Jordan BAUMANN.

 Now you have to say where it is! Though I have a guess for the first section on trail bike, I'm not 100% sure. Second part is in Lac Blanc.

 Hello EnduroManiac,


All the movie is Elsass, east of France.
Enduro section : Mollau, a little area where Bluegrass enduro tour took place 2 years ago. However, it was not a stage for the race haha.
Second part is in Lac blanc, you are right : La Flow and la Cool.


Thanks for watching,

Cheers,

Jordan BAUMANN.

 If anyone likes the edits with no soundtrack then check out the video on youtube called - Adam Brayton crushing Schladming Has to be 1 of my favourite videos for sure, totally committed riding and some of the best style you will ever see on a bike, still cant believe the guy hasnt got a real good result at a world cup yet... COME ON BRAYTON, smash it this year

 I have never heard those sounds in my life because I have avid juicy 3's...
  • 5 7
 You mean there's no overused, dubbed up, hipptyhop, techno music to go with the video? I love just the natural sound of the dirt and bike but it's always interesting how music changes a video. What would be your music to this? Winter is here, no more mnt. biking for a while, and I'm going to throw out this very @#^$ song www.youtube.com/watch?v=sVNt6XpIsjI

 Hello leecozens,


You are right, it looks like the old Magura Gustav. However, it is the new Magura 4 pistons brakes, Gold edition (16 samples for sponsored pilots). The bright yellow finish is for team riders only at the moment, but word on the street is that Magura will offer it for everyone soon...
