Did they take copious amounts of drugs? Also Troy lost time at the top but also seemed much less comitted in the bottom forrest. Coulanges was flying here.the spanish commentators are describing what they see. decent, but not as good as Greg and Aaron together on the english broadcast. they speculated Troy lost time to Coulanges in the bottom natural part because he's lighter...
I just watched a little bit of the race since I was at my son's basketball game, and all I have to say is the Spanish commentary made as much sense as a couple of street sweepers describing a curling game.Did they take copious amounts of drugs? Also Troy lost time at the top but also seemed much less comitted in the bottom forrest. Coulanges was flying here.
The top part was a bit greasyGreg did have a few good points from what I heard (caught the last few riders live) that dumbfuck just talked over, and Gwin then agreed with. Like Loris getting a bit tight after his drift, or Dak's crash coming from crossing the main rut (not just that it was muddy there).
FTFYdak *totally* would have avoided that push if he had a HIGHER bar
rad race for dunne!
The best was when Gwin was about to give his input or was talking and buddy there would come out of nowhere and say "he's on ripper, HEY GREG WHAT DO YOU THINK???" FFS let gwin finish.Greg did have a few good points from what I heard (caught the last few riders live) that dumbfuck just talked over, and Gwin then agreed with.

Who is that guy? They hired Kate who actually has some media training and instead they have someone who has less focus than an adhd person on cocaine?The best was when Gwin was about to give his input or was talking and buddy there would come out of nowhere and say "he's on ripper, HEY GREG WHAT DO YOU THINK???"

It beats paying $$$ to some channel you've never heard of before. How much of that gets passed on to Ronan?RM guys when they talk about the commentary on world cups they watched for free on Tiz..

I replayed that slide several times. It's insane that he kept his feet up for itHighlight for me had to be Angel Suarez's slide into the berm... Some of the camera angles were awesome. (Too bad they sold the rights to Flosports here in Canada, as I'd pay for this product - for a reasonable amount)
Yeah Myriam's commentary was a big improvement from how she was on the mic at Fort Willy.Myriam and Gwin's commentary for the womens was awesome. They notice so many more details than Ric did.
Great race, top result. Hope to see that track again in the future.
No, I didn’t go. I was planning on it but have a lot going on getting ready for the EU DH Champs in Champery this summer. I definitely would have said hello if I was!Are you here ?
Not sure if he was throwing shade but Ric said something to Minnaar along the lines of having Gwinn show him something about the next step in his career. Implying Gwinn was done and Greg will soon be.it was almost like they told ric to groom greg to take over next year...greg wouldn't say shit but once a run ric would add "right greg" or "what do you think greg" to prompt him. once you notice it, it is painful. gwin's great with the analysis. they just need a "color" guy who gets genuinely stoked now. i recommend @jackalope on fake purple drank. tahnee was good and myriam was better this time.
i'ma watch for free no matter what unless some part of my fee goes to pay the riders; either waty, i'd rather listen to something decent than mute it.
Erm,you Favorite,or “who you would like to win” did it! Fucking Cunt,that is amazing,I am soo Happy for him Gary. Nothing will give him New Life like a Win! I can not understand how you are not saying somfing? Why are you being so quiet? It’s OK Brother,Have a Lash!Erm... Coke is actually calming and helps improve focus when you have ADHD.
And our all time favourite DH commentator has ADHD
Fairly sure Ric McLaughlin doesn't. You are on about Ric right?
Who's Kate?
Ooooh... a squirrel
Isn't that Meth/Amphetamine and not coke? Never tried coke though. Didn't know they had analogue wiktorian coke.Erm... Coke is actually calming and helps improve focus when you have ADHD.

Weirdly in Poland Disco/Warner bought the biggest TV station and they have a really cheap streaming service where you can have english commentary. 2.5$ / monthIt beats paying $$$ to some channel you've never heard of before. How much of that gets passed on to Ronan?
Hope we get the race next year. I think everyone liked it. It would be great if we had it regurarly as looking at license plates it was an event for all of the eastern block. Polish hills are the closest mountains for people from the Baltic states and Czechs and Slovaks are just over the border, 20 min drive, so basically you get 3 countries in 1.No, I didn’t go.

Stoked for Marine!
Maybe partied too hard yesterday?EH?
She seemed fine on the hotseat? (other than being upset when her time was beaten)
Dude. Full on 2-wheel slide through that berm. So sick.Highlight for me had to be Angel Suarez's slide into the berm...
i thought the chase drone they used for the opening section did a good job of capturing the insane speeds those guys were hittingFinally finished watching. Was chasing a little white ball. And spoiled a good walk in the woods. Oh and then there was an mtb ride where I crashed and bailed in front of the kids and it was embarrassing. I'm getting old
How good is Ronan? Sooper awesome.
Rock on Marine
I do like Gwin's commentary. Very insightful. He's like the Ricky Carmichael. But better
Ric is good. But I still miss Warner. Miriam was good. Minaaaarrr? Not sure. Boring. Say something of value. YOU HAVE ONE JOB TO DO. I'd rather listen to Josh, the other ginger.
Wait, so there's 3 gingers?
The cams and footy. Hmm...It's different. Not sure if it's better. But I'll take it. Support the sport. As they say.
