These are the kind of blokes who need sponsorship (besides getting a frame at trade they can't even afford to run gears so they run single speed) and can blat World Cup riders on our turf. Really nice blokes too.

Chuffed for them.

I am pretty quick (if I say so myself) but these guys are light speed and they regularly ride with top tier riders.

The bloke who did the video, Salva, is also a great guy who has that irritating nack of making really great videos…

I particulally like this one, which goes a bit wrongle at the end

He has also made this…

Are they from Denmark? If they are whats the connection between Denmark and Switchbacks as there are some lads at Vallåsen in Sweden that are Danish and guide with Switchbacks I think. And how do you become good at DH in Denmark??

Yeah they are Danish. Henrik is a DH guide for SwitchBacksDH.

Becoming good at DH in Denmark is the same as the UK. You push a lot!

I've ridden with Henrik and he certainly does shift down the trail. Would be great to see him given the backing to mix it with the big boys.

I did spend a lot of time repairing his ghetto singlespeed DH bike before he got the one he's on in that vid though, and when he broke that again he was still pretty quick riding chainless.
