Who's returning from injury? Minnaar and Moir should be good to go. How about Norton and Gwin?

I would love to see a Canuck on the Podium. One of my favorite Mont-Sainte-Anne memories (I don't have a lot because I only started watching WCDH in 2014) was Mark Wallace's double into the rock garden in 2015.

rewatch 2013 then

New section added, "Le Tarzan":

Saturday, 3PM ART. Perfect time for post-lunch beers!!!

Gwin said he wants to be back for MSA, no indication yet if that will be the case.

someone on vital: "In line with Gwin at Snow Summit. Said he is not racing MSA. Focused on making it to France."

 

[sethimus]

he must really pissed off the lord almighty...

can't say i'm terribly surprised. at this point i'd bet a few beers that his primary focus is world champs, any races prior to that would just be to get back in form for that.

Like Sam in 2010.

Weather is looking good so far for quali and race day.

I didn't go check it up close, but the new Tarzan section is looking good. It replaces the big rocky and loose left off-camber where the track arrives under the gondola just before the jumps and berms leading to the Steve Smith Drop.

Should be a good one...and much dryer than last year!

cathro track walk

 

[Sandwich]

if you haven't already, give cathro a like/follow. The more followers he has, the more videos he's going to put out/be allowed to put out. I love his reviews/analysis.

Jesus, Gee, had a broken wrist for the last two races?

Nope. MSA pit bits from vital. Thanks for participating but try again.

I feel like Gee is a hard-as-nails kind of guy.

 

[chris_f]

And with the sunny disposition of a Serbian war criminal on trial.

So who is racing with that on their bike?

 

[chris_f]

Nobody in the discipline that matters, it's on Evie Richards' XC bike.

 

[StiHacka]

These look kinda wide?

Let’s add batteries to a reverb, since they don’t break down enough already...
maybe go solar charging and remove the oil seals a la early Fox 40 while you’re at it.

And then 6 months later release an aftermarket $90 cable actuator to replace the E part.

Gee should clearly retire, podium for timed training.

I don't actually get all the hate for Gee (I do enjoy reading it though... it's pretty funny)

This is probably one of the best rider commentated WC course previews I've ever watched..

I really hope it's wet as fuck on race day.. MSA looks rad in the wet.

i like gee too but he always has a sourpuss look on his face, resulting in the Lord Bummer nickname

Racist

Vulcans lose all credibility if they smile
