Looks good but annoyingly the Outside Watch app isn't available in the UK and casting doesn't seem to work so can't watch on the big screen - doh!

Worth noting that if you subscribe to Trail Forks you also get access to the Outside+ extra stuff including the video library - so you can watch this whenever. Some other good films on their too.

Actually that is true because the phrase "for free" doesn't make sense. "Free " isn't a value and thus you cannot have anythig for it.

"Free" is the lazy way of saying "free of charge" . Thus my advice here is "free of charge", said lazily as "free". This modern trend, presumably started by some one to whom English is a second langauge, is both incorrect and plain sloppy. As bad as a double negative!

If you use the phrase please try not to.

Brilliant. Shame you cannot cast. Mirroring my phone on the TV worked pretty well for me, so if your TV and phone have that feature then that's one way to watch on the big screen.

Can't watch it from my cabin in the woods. Is Jez Avery in it?

This is top tier trolling (in its proper sense of posting something to lure marks into posting an outraged response) but I'm not going to be caught so easily in the trap.

I send it from the pinkbike homepage from my phone to Chromecast no problem.

Having grown up watching Crusty Demons and NWD this was a brilliant trip down memory lane when we were inspired by these guys to push our mediocre limits.

I'm more familiar with the DH racing antics of JMC, Peaty, Palmer, CG so interesting to see your freeride scene.

The Jah drop though...
