 I can't even listen to Danny Hart..kid sounds like he's got a dogs squeaky toy inserted deeeep into his lower bodily cavity

 InLand4L1fe, you talk some shit. I hereby proclaim you to be a faggot with no skills. Prove me wrong.

 If that was HELMET CAM footage that guy officially has the strangest body ever. Totally awesome though, my whole body was burning just watching it - lesson to you kids - these guys are FIT like you can't imagine.
  • 1 1
 it was a chest cam mount, so it was mounted to his chest

 props to all dh world cup riders next weekend. that is one track that beats the crap out of you! my girlfriend broke her wrist trying to walk down it last year, looks even gnarlier!!!!!
  • 2 0
 the speed of world cup riders is usually what amazes me, but just being able to make it down that track would be amazing for me
  • 1 0
 its actually not very difficult to get down, just difficult to do it fast
  • 1 0
 i would crash........ALOT
  • 1 0
 theres a few new sections been put in, since danny made this awesome video, which are so much fun and make the course so much better.
  • 1 0
 And to think that Greg minaar did a mid 4 minute time last year @ the WC, that was snails pace in comparison!

Still bloody fast tho¬

 That is just breath taking footage,clearly shows you how super gnarly this track realy is.
  • 2 0
 if youve ridden it, you can really understand how good these guys are. fucking amazing.
  • 1 0
 i can't get my chest cam to get good footage like that it shakes wayyy to much and no matter what it always angles down... anyone know why?
  • 1 0
 put it on tighter, but also it depends on your riding position so if you ride something like a 224 it will always point down, but something like a sunday will have you more upright
  • 1 0
 thanks man i just tried adjusting it and i got it to work a lot better, oh yeah, sweet POD from earlier haha i just recognized your name, any video?
  • 1 0
 nah
  • 1 0
 notice the tape over the top of his stancions??... is that to keep his pants from snagging / to avoid bumping settings / both / something else??..
  • 1 0
 its to stop his pants form snagging
  • 1 0
 i've had the same issue w/ my 08 boxxers... been keeping an eye out for a slicker solution though.
  • 1 0
 hahaha same w-e-w, although i have 09's (big difference Razz ) and ya.. a prettier/slicker solution as you said should be found.
  • 1 0
 That was fantastic in so many ways. Danny is so fast but as a young'un he has the potential to be faster - Giant made a good choice.

 minaars course record is 4.36 ( i think ) which means he's taken a minute out of THAT run. now that i would have liked to have seen.
  • 2 0
 Thats on the old track and this was not a race run video it was done the day before the bds race. So it is not at race pace
  • 3 2
 That was a good video, but did anyone else notice he was using Pro Atherton handlebars and stem?
  • 8 0
 well it is a shimano product and the giant team uses shimano
  • 2 1
 My Atherton Pro Direct mount stem pulled apart on the first day. Shot the two top bar bolts into the sky. I am NEVER buying Pro again.
  • 1 0
 bkbroiler, it sounds like there wasn't enough thread engagement - perhaps you tightened the lower bolts and THEN you did up the top two?
  • 1 0
 not my first canoe trip mate, i only had the two bottom ones left to measure thread depth with and sure enough only three theads of contact....not nearly enough
  • 1 0
 Sorry, but I see people make that mistake all the time, so I gotta check for user error. I agree, three turns is not enough.
  • 1 0
 Fair enough...I'd say the same thing
