Some great racing today. Borrowing a couple of pics

U23 ripper Scotty Bowden hitting the XC drop that would probably cause a lot of trouser filling in the STW gnaar riding team 😉
Supporters?

Set of Mags that was getting Warner excited in the commentary box

XC? more like GnarrC!! 😯

Superb pics!

yeah wish they were mine 😉
van der Ploeg does like to show off a bit though

Was there a fairly meaty drop off I saw on one of the videos

How they’re doing it without more neon & full body armour I’ll never know

Good watching about 20 of the men going off it one after the other. One of the women riders didn’t quite land the drop crashing into the camera man, hope both are okay.

Nice. Great to see the skills that so many of these riders have.

Wouldn’t trouble me particularly but there again I would be riding a 6″ Enduro bike and wouldn’t be working my way around a race course with a level of fatigue that would totally remove any capability I have!

Can’t wait to see Nino Schurter over that course!

Redbull tv only showing the XC and DH World Champs as upcoming events, I hope they are showing the other world cup rounds for both. I’m sure last year all were listed in their calender and certainly Rob Warner was on about see you next time in la Bresse.

I’m sure they are. Really looking forward to watching la bresse, the course looks great in the vids from 2012

Pro XC Tweaks

All should be in the live list on RBTV, and yeah the Droppers were an interesting addition
