I remember watching Zink and McGarry in 2013 do what I thought at the time would be as far as mountain bikes would ever be pushed, and that it really couldn't get any bigger or crazier. Subsequent years somewhat cemented that, as the riding seemed wild but wasn't really pushing further into the realm of whats possible, but more in the direction of making every single part of the mountain get hit with style, flow, and tricks and a focus on complete runs, rather than "whats the single biggest thing I could possibly do?"
This year we get Gee trying to build (and hitting) the Jaw drop (with similar results unfortunately) at rampage and people throwing backflips on the canyon gap in goddamn practice.
Heal up Gee, and best of luck hitting your lines and staying safe to all the other riders.
@sanchofula: These clips are from before the crash. I'm assuming he's still at the hospital since we haven't heard otherwise. Knowing him though, he's probably trying to figure out a way to ride on Friday if the injuries aren't too bad.
just impressive, but somehow seeing all this crazy stuff on film already from training is killing some of the excitement and surprise watching Finals for me. I wonder if it would make the finals even more exciting again if there would be a media ban until finals day.

Incredible.
