I'm assuming most people saw the Santa Cruz failure test video. carbon > aluminum. Period. Yes it's an expensive risk for most of us to take, but more and more all mountain and dh frames are made of carbon instead of aluminum, and it's not because we're all weight weenies, it's because carbon is stronger. Aluminum has a relatively short fatigue life, too many hard hits = cracked frame. Carbon will flex and soak up the hits longer than I ever will. This is a sweet video and I wish I could be that smooth on any bike! Great riding and awesome camera work/ editing on this video. I was wondering how long it would take to be VOD
