 I actually love watching imperfect riding! It makes me feel a lot better about my own abilities. We all see so many edits of flawless razor's edge, on-the-limit riding. Don't get me wrong, I love to watch riders much more skilled than myself, but seeing mistakes and crashes in an edit is often times a breath of fresh air. Watching someone conquer a challenge is always a plus too!

 Nice ridin through and through... like thestig04 said, I like watching little imperfections as well, it helps when all you generally get are pro shots. The bails however.... wuhhh!!! I have to take a week off if I smoke my shoulder at all anymore... tooo many attempts at something in a day WILL ruin you/ nerve damage/connective tissue damage... etc.. great for the attempts, but remember to lay back sometimes boys!!

 I thought the front tire root slip at 0:50 was scary... Then the backflip attempts came. I have no idea how he was able to try again and again... Balls of steel.

 hey bro thats not the french flag, im guessing sweden but i think im wrong. he was writing french tho
  • 35 6
 ^ You don't know the Swiss flag because the US has never invaded it. I understand that's how you learn where counties are. The Swedish flag is yellow and blue - muppet
  • 11 1
 You seroulsy just guessed that a red and white flag was sweden... (facepalm)
  • 8 1
 and being that France is next to Switzerland (and not Sweden) it's not uncommon that there are french people there.
  • 6 7
 Well that was rude. Excuse me if I'm not well versed in my geography. I'm actually not from the US but from a country with a flag very similar to Thailand's. Ours has an emblem though. Also called the Switzerland of the Americas. You should know.

 Oh yes, this is Sweden's flag. m.pinkbike.com/photo/1457464

 Since it's all about Geography, you may be interested to know that a third of Switzerland speaks French.

Chapeau pour la vidéo, elle déchire, et respect pour le niveau d'engagement!
