Ace 🙂
Fantastic!

Birdseye view:
wow!
that is amazing.
what trail is that? look like fun on a HT...
Think it's Antur Stiniog is it not?
Yup, Antur Stiniog
is that that place in Wales?
might have to bring the bike with me when i visit the UK in October....
Antur black run. He makes it look like a piece of piss......
Was the bird on a diet? Took ages to catch the prey 😀
Atherton makes Antur look like the Verderers Trail, well, a bit and the bird is just , well, natures best. Nice one thanks !
Gee should have this bird following him at ALL World Cup rounds. It would be like Missy and the piranha, but almost cooler.
Superb! Thanks for this, OP. 🙂
Brilliant video, one of the best ones I've watched in a while.
Cheers for posting. 🙂
What I want to know why GT don't pay him enough to pay for a uplift - Poor chap
Best DH Video i've seen for ages, I was starting to bore of the Pyjama crew whipping everywhere.
and the 'making of' video has some great sequences as well
nice one, really good vid 😀
Fantastic! Anyone started a 'What bird of prey for trail riding?' thread yet?
How cool was that!
I love Antur- not ridden the black though, there's was a proper-job of a drop in there!

His backpack disappears when the does the drop in bit near the end. in fact there's quote a few shots where the bag/bait is missing.
Wonder exactly when the bird got the bait.
Good video though, but watching raptors hunt is brilliant and the ridings not too shabby.
Watch the making of video above. The bird does him loads of times!
Fab.
A mate and I were up there riding the day the falconer and camera guy were there scoping it out. We got to have a live display when he let the falcon off and was using the bait on a line. The falcon was coming in close enough over our heads to make us duck several times. Very, very cool indeed. The show came to an end when a wild bird of prey came in to see who the intruder was so it had to be called back.
Absolutely love that. The Peregrine is simply stunning.
brill 😀
The bird-cam is a bit shaky. Guess it's hard to operate cameras with your talons.
that course looks amazing [url= http://www.pinkbike.com/video/268814/ ]antur stiniog[/url]
It is. I rode it last week in blazing sunshine. I'd love to ride it on a big bike though.
Fantastic uplift too... Great day out, I didn't have my dh bike working at the time so just took the hemlock and had a brilliant time. Apart from all the bloomin birds of prey chasing you all day.

Shows how much manouvering the bird is doing. You only get to see a few bits of it and I'm guessing the reason for that is that most of what is going on is happening to fast for the camera and the human eye/brain. What an amazing bird the Falcon is.
O.O wow!
Brilliant, loved it. And I did also love the comment about the bird not being the falcon world champion.
might have to bring the bike with me when i visit the UK in October....
I did tell you.. you really should. I need to take you on a Welsh ride or two.
PS I can lend you one if you don't want to schlep yours over.
Really enjoyed that! Thanks for the share.
