Video: Top 3 Runs from Red Bull Valparaíso Cerro Abajo Urban DH 2022
Love the sport and how every year they push to the limit...but we are at a point of no return, faster bikes+faster riders+no one cares about safety (se the cars outside a 60kmh corner... or the blind road gap after a 90 wet turn in Les Gets) = sad to say but finally something bad will happen....

Video: Watch Mick Hannah & Joe Breeden's Entire Val di Sole Races with GoPro POV Overlay on Red Bull TV Feed
Am I the only one who think that RB live streams are fucking bad?I want more cameras along the track! 4 minutes of race in just 1 minute of shootage is just embarrassing...

Counterpoint: Do We Really Need E-Bikes?
that's the situation in North of Italy (Val di Sole, do you know?)
1. ebike allows everyone to practice enduro-dh, even unfit people who ride only on sunny sunday
2. trail keeper see a potential customer in ebike rider (they are more and more through years)
3. knowing their typical bad skills on bike, trail keeper is "forced" to make trails easyer and easyer-- no more natural drops no more roots and stones.
4. 60% of the trails around me are now perfectly shaped with noobproof parabolic turn, dh resort are now plently of ebike
5. Even pro-trails (not the Black Snake) will be progressively adapted to permit sunny-sunday-ebiker to ride on them.
6. I think to sell my Summum and buy an hard-tail because pure dh trail will be progressively disappear
That's the impact caused by e-bike, that's why I hate ebike
Long life to old school DH
