 Ben let me add 3 insights:

- Minnar Gap was proved in finals over and over to be worth it 1s

- Finn rock gap was worth to see/comment

- Ethan pass through the slab rocks might have bee one of the craziest moments in DH history (not covered)

 Great job this year! Good call on using the wide shot in the rock garden. I thought that was the best coverage I have seen at Mont-Sainte-Anne but that is one improvement that could have been made. They listened to you about the manager cut aways. Thanks.

 I would love to hear from you or the riders or both as to which venue on the world cup was the favorite. Or which race course was what the world cup courses should emulate. Obviously, most are amazing and all different but ranking would be cool.

 Anyone know what happened to Laurie? In the semi finals live stream they said he was protected, so even though he came like 50th he should've been in finals. But he didn't start? Injured? Ill? not protected?

 A bit disappointed Ben didn't follow up on this after the previous video...

Rumors I've seen: something to do with Pirelli sponsorship, and not using them
No idea if this is true though
