[@pinkbike]

That intro. 😂

[@beachrat01]

Fun fact...the blue ridge/Appalachians were once continuous with the Scottish highlands during the last pangea, sooo WELCOME HOME BEN!

[@liamhall4877]

Thanks for the update on Brook, appreciate it.

[@seanwalsh3052]

Really gonna miss CathroVision for the next few months but just going to enjoy these last few that much more. CathroVision at hardline????

[@Aerondogo]

I hope so! And even on kid's races and any other minor event!

[@vincentboucher2547]

How about cathrovision at RAMPAGE!? That could be pretty funny! haha

[@zGJungle]

Make it happen Redbull.

[@rpattinson]

Top nerd content. Great stuff. That reunion with your bag brought a tear to my eyes....

[@Peanutdenver]

I'm geeked to see how the riders tackle this track and if they like it. It's also cool you have Mrs Cathro involved in your films and we expect her to fill in for you next year when you get laryngitis or a bad hangover...#tinavision

[@ThemudhuggerCoUk]

Tina's salute at the end :) More Tinavision ;)

[@thomaspalmer8059]

Well done Tina. We'll need to see a bit from you in every vid now!

[@colinwatt00]

Tina trolling the viewers ‘yes, I know stuff’. Classic.

[@dfiler2]

Her comment really as spot on

[@butchgreene]

Agreed. No "durdurdur" comment. She busted out the knowledge.

[@Aaronsaviationadventures]

This guy is the real deal. Such a cool personality and has a unique way of producing top quality coverage. Ben, if you are ever in Park City, UT and need a place to stay or a tour guide, I'm your guy! It would be a dream to have you do some track analysis on the lines that are being built in my backyard.

[@diegofcm92]

Good stuff! Love Cathrovision, sometimes I'm more excited to watch it than the race itself.

[@BBKDRAGOON]

This track is SICK! Thanks Cathro!

[@SHGant]

Everyone is concerned for Brook and his recovery!! Stay strong madman!! We all love you to pieces!!!!

[@heiheimtb]

Reece Wilson also had a massive crash and landed on his head causing a concussion, on the same feature that Bulldog crashed on, right after he was evacuated!

[@BenCathro]

So he did! Haven’t heard if he’s riding this weekend or not.

[@nesbittnick]

Shit yeah. Flying out to W Virginia tomorrow from California to watch the races! The track looks fantastic! Thank you!

[@straightnobraker4677]

That's so rad. I would love to see this in person. Maybe even ride it...slowly.

[@Co-km6cl]

Flying 1000s of miles to watch a bicycle race. The irony ...

[@tasmanjohnson5770]

Your videos help me pick lines man. Thanks

[@FlyingMeta]

"the liiiiynnnsss"

[@jonnie2bad]

snowshoe sucks when it's wet, like riding greased marble countertops. That hurricane is coming up the coast just in time. Riders be crossing their fingers it stays dry. Glad they send them through the woods along the southern boundary. Thats my fav area of the park, not a lot of people ride over there. Most the traffic stays on the machine groomed bobsled runs. Excited to see how this one goes down.

[@butchgreene]

No, Snowshoe sucks when it starts to dry out. Gummy, wheel stopping, handlebar swapping, ankle deep, snake slick & unforgiving ruts. hahd

[@LeoLikesBik3s]

Track looks a million times better that in that Neko/Dak helmet cam run, which I'm delighted about. Came into this weekend expecting a rubbish track but that is definitely not the case after watching this!

[@GNARGNAR]

East coast, BEAST coast!!!! So pumped to head to Snowshoe this weekend. I'll be looking for you Cathro! Glad you got your bag back too!

[@scottlewis6298]

GK MTB !

[@keyshey]

TinaVision nailed it!

[@elRayRay]

CathroVision has quickly become one of my favorite essentials of the MTB season! Great job Ben and Tina!

[@FlyingMeta]

What a sick track with some "only for world top riders" jumps

[@Christophe_L]

"Whatchu doing honey?" "Just um... looking at some guy looking at some dirt..."

[@jamdwan]

Cracking up with this video Ben..... one of the best of the year.

[@BTBSteve]

Cathro in WV! Let's go Mountaineers!

[@jeremyporterfield1611]

@5:11 - ‘Murica! Great video Ben! Track looks legend, gonna be so good to watch. Thanks for the prime content!

[@colvinharvey9933]

So hype! Driving there friday the excitement is unreal

[@FlyingMeta]

Jealous!

[@largepeep8710]

That rock case pad is a perfect opportunity for Santa Cruz to make one of their iconic component destruction advertisements.

[@Aerondogo]

Is gnarlier than I thought from the beginning of the video. The multiple line choices reminds me to 10 years ago!

[@kyle618]

yeah looks so mellow but turns into a beast halfway down! should be interesting to watch. maybe a bit of rain would be better bwhaha

[@butchgreene]

Pay close attention to his statement that he just stopped filming the rocks there were so many. Lower Hareball is what he's referring to. There have been 2 days riding there where I've had to stop halfway down that section (accidentally thinking I was still fresh) and just freaking walked out from exhaustion. It's hard to see in videos, but it's like having to ride a dry riverbed for a minute plus at the steepest of angles. I miss it...and my low tire pressure 2.7" Maxxis Mobsters.

[@DanArnets1492]

Snowshoe is quite a sports-oriented mountain resort. Every Summer for way over a decade they've organized a round of the Grand National Cross Country, a US dirtbike racing series that consists of 2-hour quad pro race on Saturday, 3-hour dirtbike pro race on Sunday and many more races for kids and amateurs too.

[@TheCrookedWheel]

Damn. At the top section they took out a sick road gap into a gnarly rocky and rooty roll bit... no idea why. It was way more challenging than high speed slolem. I hope it’s wet, you get some really dramatic racing at the bottom.

[@jonnie2bad]

im sad about that too and no lower hairball either :(

[@thechaingang8003]

Amazing video!

[@EuroB0B1]

Going to be a tough and rough one. Good luck all riders.

[@Wannaridebikes]

I love that place I used to race downhill there

[@straightnobraker4677]

I can't wait to see the pros ride this

[@FlyingMeta]

Yeboii

[@4DRX]

Man that’s a sick ass track

[@BRgoalie]

i love that the delivery driver just drops it on the pavement lol

[@andrewlaister9816]

Great news regarding Brook I hope he's back sending it large next season. Looking forward to watching all the line choice ghosting and action on here over the next few days

[@MloVisual]

Damnnnn all those crashes and injuries look brutal!

[@FlyingMeta]

Dean Lucas still rode down after that dolphin dive on rocks. What a beast!

[@AndrewFWatkins]

I'm so excited to cross your path in my back yard and happy to volunteer shlepping your gear if Tina gets tired!

[@cianmcguigan7654]

Tina knows more than everyone in my school combined about MTB:):)

[@jonahmacke677]

No shit, probably not ideal to case that ;) Glad you got your bag back tho, and all the best to Brook, some serious carnage out there in Mont Saint Anne!

[@pomeroyi]

Love it, Ben! The ASMR bit had me cracking up

[@endurorider974]

Nice track for the last world cup round 💪

[@Flyers2929]

See you out there! Gonna be so sick!

[@MHDHRacing]

Love your Videos, awesome 👍

[@michaelspencer7019]

Two cathrovids in one day, best day ever!

[@crenky5108]

It’s amazing living 30 minutes from the final venue I can’t wait to head up tommorow for the qualies and races, hopefully I can meet you aswell ben.

[@nixxtable]

Reunited and it feels so good 🎶

[@dannybrownno1]

Good work man glad you got your kit back you made do👍bring on practice

[@olrenison]

Love the intro 😂 Be interesting to see what the track looks like with bikes on it. Looked a little fireroady at the top? Lot easier to get a sense of it with bikes clattering over it. Great to have a fresh venue anyway 👍

[@andrewallan3592]

loved the Bat man thing

[@HendrikSchillinger]

If they just moved the tape all the way to the top of that landing no one could cut off that jump. What's the point of that jump if it's faster to skip it?!

[@runrunrun51]

totally agree! hmmm media shooting some whips during training i guess...other than that i can't see!

[@thelongestnameinthecomment9677]

The first one? Because it's difficult to gap a jump like that and it makes a "better viewing experience" technically Also it gives the rider more options

[@alexhedderick6314]

Ill see you there!!!

[@LOZ22]

LUVIN IT CATHRO FOR LIFE

[@KRLinger]

I live 5 hours away, and I cannot make it. To borrow a phrase from across the pond, I feel "propper gutted." But I've got Cathro & Red Bull TV.

[@Co-km6cl]

So 5h is close in North America? Lol

[@KRLinger]

@@Co-km6cl yup. It's a large continent.

[@butchgreene]

ditto. I'm registered to course marshall today but couldn't make it.

[@C5drummer]

Way to go, Tina!!

[@benefiet]

Looks like a good track! Looking forward to it. There should be a USA-CAN part of 3 races on a raw each year in the WC races. (And i'm from europe).

[@MTBScotland]

The cheese is strong in that intro. Rock garden looks like a typical munro, you'd ride it easy.

[@mravocadoman2999]

We're gonna need some #tinavision after the wc season is over

[@ericsharp5079]

Best fucking coverage going! #Cathrovision

[@johndavis3938]

See you on the track tomorrow. I'm one of the marshals. Hope I get to meet you!

[@LOVEisTHEultimateLAW]

best intro on youtube

[@markoaalto9378]

as Always SWEET!

[@speedpilot]

Little did they know brook would make such a recovery

[@justing6614]

Lmao awesome start to the video!!

[@MichaelKierce]

See ya at the Shoe, Ben!!

[@ReebDweeb]

More Tinavision!!!!!

[@RamsayMacFarlane]

#Tinavision 🙌

[@customtobi576]

Great as always! Please Ben, go to Hardline and maybe to Rampage! Hey Red Bull, are you listening? Pay that guy some Planetickets!!!

[@RobbisTV]

#StrengthfortheBulldog

[@caylanwojciechowski8233]

hahaha the hat! I thought the hat may finally be gone! lol.

[@robinclaidlaw]

Subtitles “Welcome to another Cat revision!” 😂

[@SharonThompson-jy7ir]

When Mike Boyd gets one second of 00:06

[@kyle618]

lovin the gnar! would be amazing to watch. glad im not riding this type of track hahaha

[@101jumpit]

Think it could possibly destroy a few bodies never mind bikes Ben !

[@skyla-idiot]

Best part of this video was Ben and his bag

[@nicholasgartell5374]

Love the informality of your vids. Don't make them super slick; keep 'em real Ben! (Oh and was I the only person in NZ totally p**sed off about the Worlds not being shown here?)

[@joeyfallon4111]

3:32 in windrock lol same country. But track looks sick 👌

[@sebastiangreenwood3019]

Surprising we still don't see too many neck braces/Back protectors on the pro circuit.

[@mimodelorean]

more Tinavision plis!

[@go-explore]

Hahahahaha that intro is soooo funny

[@yetidh9]

Looking at those rocks, my money is on Bruni and his Ohlins suspension.

[@FlyingMeta]

Yeah the rocks have no chance

[@camshaft1840]

My home 🥰 I hope many tires are punctured.

[@cyberpunxDOTnl]

Thumbs up for #tinavision :)

[@hockeyjohn1592]

You have to ride the east coast of the US if you think this is brutal. This is the entire northern coast.

[@unitedtrailbuilders2320]

Have you heard of troykland in Spain that would make an amazing world Cup track

[@danielsummers93]

Reminds me of La Bresse from last year

[@ryancdallas]

hahaha - that intro!

[@peteypops]

Snowshoe looks like a faux Swiss village?...without the snow....well , I suppose Whistler looks the same?

[@kellymeeker4583]

MOAR TINAVISION!!!

[@BikeLifewithRob]

Maybe we'll see you there.

[@davenicholson3491]

Hope Gwin can take the win🤙

[@FlyingMeta]

I don't think so

[@filipcernak9975]

Ben runs like a newborn giraffe

[@iconolater]

Yeah boyeee

[@mtbben11]

No XC vid in the end from the worlds? Was kinda interested in what you would come up with.

[@peteypops]

Snowshoe looks like a faux Switzerland?

[@emohrable]

Awesome videos! What's the mic setup you have by the way? Couldn't find the details on your gear list...

[@SurikatMeerkat]

More #tinavision please!

[@bobpotts73]

Gid stuff
