His behind the scenes Slice of Pie footage is great fun to watch too. I've always wondered how those days actually go, whether any of it may be sensationalised a bit but it clearly shows that it genuinely is a bunch of dudes ripping random corners for fun, with a camera or two knocking about.
@onandoff: I hope you get a few more subs from this! What I love about these vids is that you get a feeling of what it's really like to be there. Keep up the good work!
Don't watch CathroVision! I'm working Saturday because I spent too much time watching Ben's channel on Friday. Dammn good coverage Ben. We are really spoiled, what with Pinkbike WynTV, CathroVision and then we can watch the race live on Rebull for free as well. Thank you guys!!!
Why are you guys all about retirement of riders all the time. It's their job. That's how they feed their family. They're gonna ride until they can't anymore or until they think it's time to move on
Man you gotta love the atmosphere of DH racing scene!!! Man those 3 are at the final point of the regular season, the points are close, ut they are still havin' a good time and seems so rad!
Different things work for different people. People react to pressure differently. Some lose their ability to focus and try to do everything at once or push too hard if they put too much pressure on themselves. Troy is consistently one of the top downhillers in the world so I think it is safe to say his way works for him.
@kerberos: Given the amount of mics and cameras that get stuck in these guys' faces it wouldn't surprise me that after a while, answering the same old questions can be monotonous and annoying and therefore they just throw out any bullshit spiel about riding a bike down a mountain. There's only so many times you can happily answer "What's your strategy for this weekend?" which is the one of the worst IMO because how much deeper can a strategy get than "Get down the mountain as fast as I can, without crashing."
@kerberos: yeah I see what you mean, MX like interview "yeah we tried to improve a couple of things, but now I just want to focus on my riding, have fun and try to grab some points for the championship". this x40.

Ben's analysis, insights and access just rises far and above all others who have tried (IMHO).
I'm 4 hours in to the day two edit. It's massive! Appreciate any feedback and suggestions on my youtube channel.
Stoked on the support! ????
Ben
Is there any chance you upload these to your PB account as well?
Can't believe no one nibbled on the mic holder- would've been funny
