How do they work out the gradient?

555m drop in 2.1km gives an average gradient of 3.2%

Err, no. It's more like 26%.

26% would be my working out too. In the video it states average gradient of 3.2% with a maximum of 10%.

27.4% as the distance is not the horizontal distance but down the pitchline (hypotenuse).
