Truvativ Sea Otter Classic Course Walk with Team Giant
The Giant team is a fresh one with old faces. Even the youngest of this crew has had some great results this season and last. Some stylish wins are expected from this team throughout the year. Next stop WC DH 1 in South Africa.
Below the Giant team walks us through their thoughts and actions on the pristine Truvativ DH course. Danny Hart sends the new quad, Neethling needs his snacks and Riffle looks lean and mean! Watch and learn or just take notes for the weekends race.

 Hardest working kid on the track today. |
 Always on point. Never not. Race ready and lightning fast. He can keep up with Carl and Kelli yet slays on the DH track. Renaissance man ? |
 |
| First critique of the course. Post tombstone to tranny discussion. |
 |
| Choose your own adventure. Race run you scrub. On a Wednesday Hart gets boosted. |
 |
| Hart wanted more in this zone. We were done. He was not. Nasty whip. |
 |
| I'm too drunk to taste this whipin'. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NuR1u0pjR3s |
 |
| Classic Sea Otter move. Session, hike, repeat. |
 |
| Momentum Trail Concepts crew with some last minute moves |
 |
| A gaggle of Giant riders. |
| Matt Thompson about to out coast the Giant team |
| Perfect form to a T. T stands for textbook. |
| Hot off his pro GRT win, this 19 year old takes a lay of the land before he makes his moves. |
 |
| Neethling and Riffle testing the double double out of the giagantic bermzilla. |
| Watch and learn kids. If you’re in this picture find T Sage at Sea Otter and bug him for a free piece of swag. |
 |
| Riding that train. |
 |
| Working out the kinks. Riffle chats with the administration about course tweaks for the follow practice days. |
 |  |  |
| Personalities are shining through. Danny Hart, Duncan Riffle and Andrew Needling. |
 |
| Look close and check out the ink. Riffle spent some time under the needle this winter... Check the chest piece next time you see him. |
 |
| Group shot. This is just the start of the season but only time will tell if this team has the heat. After last weekends sweep of the mens podium we're off to the races. Can anyone call the Sea Otter Classic Pro Mens podium? |
