OliScale (Oct 27, 2011 at 2:34)

whip at 1.36 was sick

gavlaa (Oct 27, 2011 at 2:51)

I don't get to do much DH riding- this video makes me want to sell my hardtail and move to the mountains. Great feel to this vid- thoroughly enjoyed it. Great work.

Bubba's got nothin' on this guy's scrubs

scott-townes (Oct 27, 2011 at 10:42)

Putting this here so someone may explain this to me but what is it with this trend to wear LEATT braces but no form of chest/shoulder/spine protection? I've seen it almost everywhere and it's funny to talk to one of 'em (not true for everyone of course) and they say that they wear it because it'd be dumb not to?

Siiick video and you ripped but just had to point out this really strange trend...

VegiAlex (Oct 27, 2011 at 11:05)

Personally, i choose not to wear any of the above because i find them restricting, and i feel like im more likely to crash whilst wearing them. The LEATT however i dont find restricting at all, and its nice to have the piece of mind that my neck is safe should i crash, and knowing that i think helps me ride faster. I dont think its a strange trend at all, (although i dont doubt that alot of riders do purely wear neck braces because they look cool, which, lets be honest, they do Big Grin

)

Thanks for your comments though mate! Greatly appreciated!

tornateo (Oct 27, 2011 at 11:19)

That was amazing!! The music was so dailed, I love hearing songs in bike flims that I haven't seen used before. The only downfall is that it makes me miss Whistler.
PS: I agree with VegiAlex, well said sir.

andrewgrant (Oct 27, 2011 at 13:35)

Yeah, a Leatt will protect what can't be fixed, and bulky pressure suits, etc are extremely restrictive. On race day, a lot of guys will wear elbow/knee padding and there are some super low-profile pressure suits that aren't as restrictive...but most guys just don't bother

scott-townes (Oct 27, 2011 at 14:41)

I'm guessing you've never heard of a broken shoulder/cracked sternum/ fractured vertebrae... but to each their own. I honestly don't find them (pressure suits) that restrictive and only going on what I've heard is that Leatt braces can be restrictive as well especially on steeper terrain.

mbjz (Oct 27, 2011 at 15:11)

leatts actually work better without any kind of pressure suit or body armor. they also work best when right on the body versus being on body armor. just what the leatt rep told me when he was fitting mine with a 661 coresaver.

Session603 (Oct 27, 2011 at 17:24)

highrollerhennerz... I just read your profile. You suck pretty bad at trolling. Give up.

spiritofthewolf (Oct 27, 2011 at 19:09)

Saw him out there shooting.

jumpslut (Oct 27, 2011 at 22:38)

Yo! Highrollerhennerz, where did that come from? You certainly know how to make yourself sound stupid. Amazing you are able to type and remember to breathe at the same time. Take your hate else where.

konakid1993 (Oct 28, 2011 at 5:11)

Hey hey hey leave the mothers outta this!

TheGravityProject-Magnus (Oct 28, 2011 at 9:29)

i love how he's taking the piss saying people dont sound "cleaver".......

tornateo (Oct 28, 2011 at 19:21)

It isn't worth arguing with him, lets be honest it isn't worth arguing on Pinkbike full stop.

MtbBoy2-4 (Oct 19, 2011 at 22:23)

this probably sounds like a dumb question but is that an elbow pad on his elbow? its so low profile it looks like a piece of like cloth, does it actually protect anything?

VegiAlex (Oct 20, 2011 at 4:00)

Nah its an elbow support, i hurt my wrist and elbow at the river jumps a week or so before filming, so i was wearing a support for both.

[Reply]

Thank you very much for your opinion mate, I will try harder next time! I notice in you display pic you don't appear to be wearing a helmet, please invest in one so that you can stay alive long enough for us all to enjoy more of your extremely useful comments.

Furious-Styles (Oct 27, 2011 at 12:26)

ha, well said. Don't get the point of negative comments myself. If I don't like - I don't comment. I've got enough negativity at my work without being negative about people who contribute to the sport I love and give us something to appreciate that is beyond my own skill level.

VegiAlex (Oct 27, 2011 at 13:01)

I really appreciate that mate, thank you very much. Smile
