    Elliot seems like such a joy to be around! Such a sick dude and does amazing things for the community!
  • Good to see Asa Vermette in here. He and Ali Ostgaard are going to be the next big stuff in downhill.
  • @deadlytreadly
    mechenic asking pro riders about their bikes and throwing them off opening with the GOAT questions is pure gold, great stuff Quinney 👍👍
  • lol at henry stopping himself from asking asa if he gives a fuck about the mismatch

    Valli Höll is great, love her.
  • All time is quite a staple, i agree with Minaar, but what about John Tomac... i meen... yeh Tomac!

    Asa will be killing in a year or two when he gets out of the junior division
  • @nickfragedakis5511
    Is it just me, or did the Trek seat tube at 24 sec look like it has a huge crack?
