Is this anybody from RM??

there are a lot of guys wearing camelbacks at Snowshoe - don't really understand as there are plenty of places to get water?? A couple years ago some of the pro guys made a season long video and they had an "adapt a hucker program" section that showed all these guys wearing camelbacks, no visors on helmets, pads over their clothes, and dropping to flat!!! It was great.

Lots of people wear camelbacks at Whistler. Probably be a lot cool er to wear a skid lid and no pads right?
There are no 45 minute runs at Snowshoe. I got dehydrated at Whistler from taking too many runs without refilling.

In their defense though, Snowshoe often forgets to put the water coolers out.

I'm not criticizing the guy at all, especially what he is wearing, just posted to show some serious misfortune.

I can't stop laughing and I love how he just shrugs it off.

Need to find that video, that would be off the hook.

Wow. Just, wow.
I don't know what's more remarkable, that he just shrugs it off and continues, or that the guy who edited it was not content to let him be hit once, but had to re-whap him like six times.

does he have a drinking bottle attachet to his downtube?!
Haha, I have a specialized demo 9 (maybe he has an older 8?). Either way, I know the demo 9 actually comes with 2 bolts on the downtube for a water bottle holder. I already have a bell on my bike, I thought it would be funny to stick a waterbottle holder on there too.

Oh and on another note. I've come to like hydration packs, they are convenient, and hold tools and multi-tools, but you can feel them there.

Oh and I am not from the video.

I think I seen that dude at Diablo, guy is like in his 50's if I'm not mistaken but good thing he's still riding for his age. Hope the crown jewels alright!
Yeah, im 90% sure thats him. I remember talking to him at a couple past snowshoe races. He is still fast too.
