Wyn TV is back for the first round of the EWS in Zermatt, Switzerland. Wyn ‘brakes’ out the rotor mic and checks in with Bernard Kerr, Morganne Charre, Greg Callaghan, Nico Vouilloz, Jack Moir, Martin Maes, and others to see how their first day back at school went.
I didn't know how much I missed Wyn's racing coverage! Great to hear from the racers about the wild conditions and see a brake rotor in their happy faces. Thanks Wyn!
The funniest thing I ever saw in F1 was when Ron Dennis (not noted for being funny in public) snuck up on Eddie Jordan during a live post-race broadcast, cut the cable to his headset, then melted back into the crowd.
Wyn has matured and improved tremendously as an interviewer! Still plenty of personality, but paying more attention to the interviewee and the race than he is on getting in an awkward joke. Great job!
Why EWS don't come to Greece to enjoy the trails (yes Greece is 80% mountainering) and the nice warm weather for a race, during this period of time and they choose places with high probability of shitty weather conditions that limits performance and enjoyment.
There's a couple of people I don't recognise in plain coats and facemasks (fairly certain I could ID them in race kit). Put their names on the screen Wyn.
Eddie Masters trolling Bernard Kerr on Instagram. I feel like there is a tense conversation happening in the background being facilitated by social media platforms. Its like trying to estimate some kind of latent state of their actual relationship.
Wyn is such a gem for the MTB community. Puts out incredible content, on and off the bike, still manages to race, and sets up funds supporting privateers. Be like Wyn.
I think he does better when he's looking at the riders he's interviewing. He interrupts less when he's paying attention to them and I think he gets a better back and forth interaction. A few years ago he was interrupting riders constantly, now I think his interactions are really good.
@jaredmh: Wyn has carved a fantastic niche into the MTB racing media circus over many years. Self-taught, self-motivated and I guess largely self-funded?!
Nice interview and good luck for the next race
as allways
Who's there?
