Val di Sole DH Track
Sam Blenkinsop
Val di Sole is right up there with Mount St Anne and Ft William when it comes to demanding a complete and focused rider; a single mistake at a place like this can have massive consequences. As a photographer, the most difficult thing at a place like this is finding a shot that illustrates not only how gnarly the track is, but also how graceful and skilled the riders are. This shot of Blenki dancing through this rock and root infested gutter below the main rock garden is one of the few times in 2011 where I feel I truly nailed it.
