 When stevie crossed the line and the green time popped, the crowd went crazy it was so amazing to hear everyone scream for Steve, it was an awesome moment, still pumped for you Stevie!! Win it in whistler too!!

 What a dramatic end! It was great to see him get the win at home! Seams like a trend this season, 1st with Gee in Ft. Bill, then a Canadian at home... make me wonder what Greg will do at home?

 I was going crazy watching it at home, I was so bummed when I saw the rain with so many riders to go and Gee already set a killer time. The I thought to myself Steve grew up on the island which is probably one of the rainiest places to ride/grow up in Canada so its still possible. He put together a magical run that gave me goosebumps watching him the whole way down. So stoked for Stevie and with Crankworx right after this should be a big confidence booster for the final few WC race.

ANNNNND Manon Carpenter is quickly becoming a favorite too. Shes super hot and can rip a bike, two very important qualities in my book!

 I think I lost my voice screaming for Steve when he hit the finish line. I've never seen the MSA crowd that loud in my life. The expression on Stevie's face was priceless. He was followed by a mob of people all the way to the podium. A Great turnout for MSA with an amazing result.

Steve, Gee, Sam, Greg and Aaron (Probably the most incredible podium in the history of DH).
