Steven Walton headed up to Mammoth Mountain for the last race of the season and was able to end the year with a bang! On the all new, strenuous downhill track nicknamed "The Velociraptor", he was able to pilot his Hyper downhill bike to an impressive 5th place finish in Pro Men!

 Wow. A Walmart bike [apparently] survived Mammoth.
Doesn't mean I'm any closer than I was pre-video to making Walmart my LBS now however.

 I am ok with anyone who will give a young kid a hand getting to a race (Hyper). And yes I will still be going to my local LBS as well.

 I didn't even know Hyper was a thing until right now. Podium proves the bike doesn't matter, all about the skills

 Wow! I recognize that start platform immediately! (Velocity) or Velociraptor as it is called now, we raced that back in 2001 I believe. Could have been 2000. I'll never forget that coarse and how awesome it was. It should I say, is.. Anyways, nice film cut. Congrats on your finish, I know it wasn't easy. Props to ya! Thanks for the flash back! Good memories!

 Mr. Walton, I've heard you blasting disco at all of the races, and it's also the soundtrack you chose for this video. Do you actually like this music? Or is it just a shtick?

 Good amount of Mammoth coverage PB! The correct spelling of the GRT DH course would be Velociraptor, no?
