Sea Otter - Pro DH Results and video!

The Pro Downhill at the Sea Otter Classic always draws a huge crowd and this year was no exception. For the first time in I think Sea Otter history the whole weekend went with out any rain, so the track was dry and fast.

Here are the results for the Pro category and a video from the finals:

 As tyler morland said in today's video, it looks like a Cross Country course.

 Yea!! Go Leov! These flying Kiwis are getting faster!

 Its really not a cross country course at all, god forbid you actually have to pedal to be the fastest downhill. Its not a difficult course, but it has some booter jumps and a few steep sections, and some HUGE braking bumps that are more like moto whoops. I agree its no world cup DH course but they don't have much to work with considering there not at a bike park like most big tracks.
