 Drones have done more for mtb edits than for national security

 Is it wrong that I expected more? I just thought there would be more kinda following the riders down the trails

 This could have come straight out of The Collective's 'Seasons'.

I love the mix of more peaceful music and the sounds of the bike. When you hear the bike, it's enables you to hear the sounds you hear when you ride.

And am I the only person who isn't bored of HD slo-mo stuff yet?

 Is it wrong that I expected some black and white with cross hairs and pyrotechnics from a proper drone?

 Yep I was waiting for some different/special drones shots , still an awesome video but not what I expected.

 RedBull, you need to implement this type of coverage/filming for DH WC races. I think it will be awesome to see the full ride.

 They need to have a shot where the drone chases the riders down the trail.

 Do you mean they need to have a scene where the drone is shooting at the riders going down the trail?

 First I need to go to Are Bike park as it looks awesome. Secondly that edit was amazing. So so so good. Nice to see single crown downhill with duel crown for a change rather than just one or the other. The slowmo, the music, the drone shots. It all was so SICK!

 If well shot, slow mo is cool. I like how you can see the suspension working in intricate detail and body positions thru different maneuvers. They also help me to appreciate the gnar of tricks that happen so quickly in rt. Slo mo has its place if used sparingly.

 Drone + transmitter on your person...program drone ride height and following distance ...start your drone at the beginning of your run. If you're not moving it goes to a static hold position...otherwise it follows you at the programmed level and distance...

 Awesome footage like the others said. I rode that bikepark last summer, it's totally worth going to. The scenery is awesome and one can easily spend 3 days and still not cover the entire mountain.
