Video: Friday Fails #252
i haven't seen fails for quite a while now, but just watched this one.
i thought it was exceptional. all kinds of fails.
good action comments / reactions too.
'it's go time.' classic, on a big hit too.
brilliant.

well that was pleasantly surprising.
usually on fridays i end up saying, "gotta go faster. speed's your buddy dude!"
but today, today this might have been the speed collection of things gone wrong. good stuff.
2:45 is the best.

Video: Nicholi Rogatkin's 2018 Highlights Edit is Massive
i took my visor off as i found it got in the way of my view down the fall-line, and helmut cam shots too for that matter. waaaay faster without it as well. :)
anyways, nicholi is pretty good.

nothing to it but to do it.
i'll get a shot this summer when the plants are out. hides the track a bit.
bigger yard would be better [for mtb] as this works best on 20" wheels [way faster, flowier, easier to make the transitions cleaner at the hip, out of the bowl both ways, and over the sidewalk less the bridge there, without packing into the boulders everywhere].
i had this running in dirt / clay for abut 6 years, adjusting, changing, making the lines work both ways [twice the track!] until i poured the concrete sections for good. no changes now. i'm going to add 3 movable metal whoops along the long straight sidewalk as well to throw out a manual along the way for good measure.
loads of fun and right out the door. hell of a workout for a rusty pedal like me, but mostly keeps us primed up too for anything ...

Pinkbike Poll: How Often Do You Crash?
being a 30 year rider i have learned 2 things:
1. never let go of your bike - i have had so many choices of whether to ditch the bike when going over the bars or hang on and ride it out that it is truely amazing how you can save a spill by slowing your mind down and getting ready for weight transitions for when the wheels finally touch earth again when you feel like your going over the bars and have no choice [front suspension is amazing], and
2. if you have no choice coming out of #1, then learning how to crash and how to 'roll' out of it is essential.
i ride the same stuff i always have, however, i do it far faster and with greater amplitude as i get older. i consider this to be progression for my personal riding and with nearly no crashes any more.
