Results: Asa Vermette & Vali Höll Win 2026 Whistler DH World Cup Elite Finals
I actually tried to pay for HBO Max for this one since it was on at a good time to view. Never could get it to work.... even after they took my money. I will not stop bitching about the current broadcasting setup for these, the broadcaster is actively killing this sport, and you don't so much as hear a slight critiques from the journalist crowd.
The competing pro's and journalists should be screaming from the bloody hills at this point. Mark my words when WB abandons this sport/contract WC DH will be a shell of what it started as whenever RB was running the broadcast.

Semi-Hot Takes on This Year's MTB Tech Trends
@lwkwafi: ahhh yeah that makes sense. Agreed would be nice, it is interesting they used to upload them to YT like 2-3 years ago, but no more.

Just curious why don't you upload the podcasts to YT? I generally listen on my phone, but would 100% watch the video version on my TV sometimes if it was up on the YT channel.

@Goose76: nah he was making silly hyper political circle jerk post, calling the ufc bad cause the sitting president happens to like it? and you doubled down trying to throw "shame at capitalism" to tack onto it...
Do you even understand the point you were trying to make? It sounds like you were disagreeing with the guy but tacitly continuing the circle jerk?
Literally everyone in this thread is posting pure retardism. Myself included now.

I mean whats wrong with this? Cross promotion of sports is only good? unless you don't want anyone to advocate for trails and have fun with.

@Goose76: The UFC hasn't "bought out the competition" since 2011 with the strike force acquisition... the most recent absorption of Bellator fighters in 2024/2025 only happened because that company went tits up(just like almost every other acquisistion the UFC has made), they just offered contracts to the better fighters on the roster who would've been jobless or gone to lesser promotions with way lower pay...
And guess what they still make considerably more than your average mtber. Literally every anti ufc post in this comment section is based on pure NPC politicism of everything now adays(yours included).
This comment section is a text book example of exactly why the pro mtb scene will be nothing other than a side show for cycling. The community legitimately fights progress, and change, shit they'r having an aneurysm over two contemporary pro athletes from the same country discussing how cool a sport is for fun IN THEIR HOME COUNTRY.

This is two all time South African athletes discussing a sporting event in South Africa... not a single ufc marketing platform is likely to even repost this video. Which I'm sure you'll also find a way to deem "problematic".

@panthermodern: what is your point? Because mma has wider broad appeal and has some high profile fans it's evil. What are your thoughts on bentonville and the Walton's? Actually spare me something tells me your response is going be insufferably annoying even by Reddit standards.
