Says the same group of dudes who go to bike parks with lifts, and get shuttles to the top when available.

Isn't it normal to wear a bike park jacket? I always wear one. I fall off all the time and I'm glad I wear it. :/

This really bothered me too. Like I saved for a LONG TIME to get my Norco Truax, and a year later all the bike media is telling me it's outdated and "not cool anymore." Heh? If I tried to ride the stuff I do on my Norco instead on my Enduro bike, it would snap in half. There is a massive difference between 180mm of heavy duty coil suspension (Totems) on a heavy duty rig like my Norco, to 160mm of air suspension on a light bike like my Spec Enduro. Also, when a product is "outdated" faster than computer hardware is outdated, something is amiss. I will ride my Norco for the next 5 years, and by then it will be "cool" again.

These bikes look like 180mm but I think 203mm is just the name of their group. I've seen anywhere from 130mm to 180mm at Enduro races, you can use any bike you like really. As long as it has two wheels!

It doesn't get much better than that.

Yeah this is hardcore. Some of those jumps were massive. Like, when I watch the rampage or something I'm never really caring how awesome they are cos I know I will never do that crazy stuff. But when I watch this it is like, stuff I hope to learn to ride next season (I'm a beginner) and it actually gives me a psychological advantage seeing this because jaknow, if they can do it then I should be able to do it too. OK hopefully that didn't come off as sexist but I'm going to try some gnarlier shit now cos these ladies are awesome.

This is the least impressive video I have ever seen on PinkBike.

I'm new to MTB so forgive me for my ignorance, but I thought this was Freeriding...? Or is there some rule that if your bike has 160mm instead of 180mm then all of a sudden you are not Freeriding, you are instead an AM rider or something? What the hell. It's all just mountain biking to me. Cool video.
