The last videos from 2019 i dont think it left i think people just dont pay attention to it

Either that or Dual Salomon. I honestly have more fun watching DS. Name an event that runs DS now that doesn't draw a huge crowd for those races.

@endurogan: Mainly because the UCI dropped it. On the bright side it made funds available for them to get behind a Zwift World Championship. Kinda sums them up.

Dear Crankworx tour. I’m wrong you because I feel like we need a 4x event at every stop. It’s ok if we need to get rid of the pump track challenge or whatever it’s called. We miss the crazy racing and the Crankworx series would be the perfect solution since many athletes from different backgrounds could compete and also be able to stretch their trip dollars and allow them to compete in other disciplines which would make them look good with their sponsors. Thank you and stay safe. Lalientoxc

Bikes are better, speed is higher, but man it looked way more fun +15 years ago..

I love how back in the day all the top DH guys also raced 4X, as shown above by Minnaar winning in 2003

I hope whoever edited those early ones is on some sort of lucrative royalties deal. Sterling work.
