Try watching this video over and over, then you know what to expect when you're riding it :) Nice video btw!

I think this event will suit the big freeriders like Sorge and Buehler. Either way really looking forward to watching the finals!

Hi, not sure what to say about Eurosport really, yes they are heavy on road racing but they do generally show extended highlights of DH several hours after the racing has finished. They have the same video footage that you would see on Freecaster.tv but have a more generic commentator. I guess the main benefit to Eurosport is better quality video footage.

Good work from Lance to get 6th!

Right check this, Freecaster receive their time recordings and television feed from the same broadcasting company that the UCI hire to run the event - check out Eurosport and see they have the same footage, angles etc. Freecaster is run through sponsorship and endorsement, stretching much further out of the circle than just MTB. The people bashing Warner (yes, I'm a massive fan of his but hear me out..) should take into consideration his wage, and the cost for Freecaster to attend/stream the event, let alone have another person in their team that should do the homework of all the racers, sponsors and teams before passing this information over to Rob. Rob has forgotten more than most of us will know about the pro DH circuit. If you don't like the broadcast, then please don't watch it as there's only so much bandwidth available..

Hey there, you mention Eurosport for DH coverage. I'm not familiar with them, have looked it up but looks like they primarily cover road racing. Do they cover DH at all? Would like to know more.
