Best Not Case This! // Snowshoe DH World Cup Day 1 //

[@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....

[@thomaspalmer8059]

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

[@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

[@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.

[@SHGant]

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

[@elRayRay]

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

[@ThemudhuggerCoUk]

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

[@diegofcm92]

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

[@BBKDRAGOON]

This track is SICK! Thanks Cathro!

[@tasmanjohnson5770]

Your videos help me pick lines man. Thanks

[@FlyingMeta]

"the liiiiynnnsss"

[@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.

[@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.

[@FlyingMeta]

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

[@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 !

[@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 ...

[@largepeep8710]

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

[@colvinharvey9933]

So hype! Driving there friday the excitement is unreal

[@FlyingMeta]

Jealous!

[@EuroB0B1]

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

[@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.

[@keyshey]

TinaVision nailed it!

[@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

[@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.

[@jeremyporterfield1611]

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

[@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!

[@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

[@nixxtable]

Reunited and it feels so good 🎶

[@AndrewFWatkins]

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

[@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.

[@BRgoalie]

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

[@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 :(

[@straightnobraker4677]

I can't wait to see the pros ride this

[@FlyingMeta]

Yeboii

[@cianmcguigan7654]

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

[@endurorider974]

Nice track for the last world cup round 💪

[@pomeroyi]

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

[@Wannaridebikes]

I love that place I used to race downhill there

[@MloVisual]

Damnnnn all those crashes and injuries look brutal!

[@FlyingMeta]

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

[@michaelspencer7019]

Two cathrovids in one day, best day ever!

[@Flyers2929]

See you out there! Gonna be so sick!

[@andrewallan3592]

loved the Bat man thing

[@alexhedderick6314]

Ill see you there!!!

[@MTBScotland]

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

[@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 👍

[@4DRX]

Man that’s a sick ass track

[@thechaingang8003]

Amazing video!

[@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.

[@jonahtmacke]

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!

[@dannybrownno1]

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

[@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).

[@C5drummer]

Way to go, Tina!!

[@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

[@customtobi576]

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

[@LOVEisTHEultimateLAW]

best intro on youtube

[@ericsharp5079]

Best fucking coverage going! #Cathrovision

[@markoaalto9378]

as Always SWEET!

[@johndavis3938]

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

[@unitedtrailbuilders2320]

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

[@MHDHRacing]

Love your Videos, awesome 👍

[@speedpilot]

Little did they know brook would make such a recovery

[@caylanwojciechowski8233]

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

[@MichaelKierce]

See ya at the Shoe, Ben!!

[@mtbben11]

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

[@robinclaidlaw]

Subtitles “Welcome to another Cat revision!” 😂

[@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?)

[@101jumpit]

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

[@joeyfallon4111]

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

[@mravocadoman2999]

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

[@BikeLifewithRob]

Maybe we'll see you there.

[@RobbisTV]

#StrengthfortheBulldog

[@justing6614]

Lmao awesome start to the video!!

[@camshaft1840]

My home 🥰 I hope many tires are punctured.

[@kyle618]

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

[@emohrable]

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

[@elliotwilliams7421]

Ben, have you been shaving with a bit of broken glass?

[@peteypops]

Snowshoe looks like a faux Switzerland?

[@sebastiangreenwood3019]

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

[@mimodelorean]

more Tinavision plis!

[@ReebDweeb]

More Tinavision!!!!!

[@RamsayMacFarlane]

#Tinavision 🙌

[@peteypops]

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

[@yetidh9]

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

[@FlyingMeta]

Yeah the rocks have no chance

[@hockeyjohn1592]

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

[@skyla-idiot]

Best part of this video was Ben and his bag

[@kellymeeker4583]

MOAR TINAVISION!!!

[@IRON_NIC]

great video as always, but it doesnt really look like a world cup worth track to me. Looks more like a local (although sketchy and certainly difficult) dh track :D

[@thelongestnameinthecomment9677]

Why do you look like you have a katana in your backpack?

[@danielsummers93]

Reminds me of La Bresse from last year

[@go-explore]

Hahahahaha that intro is soooo funny

[@ryancdallas]

hahaha - that intro!

[@lemzilee6061]

yassssss

[@camshaft1840]

Also. Since I’ve ridden so much of this place. I feel like they could have taken a different approach. West Virginia trails are natural and gnarly, ride Slatyfork, Valley Falls, Kanawha state forest, and many others, those trails are true WV gnar. Snowshoe could have made this track a much more challenging/ engaging with more natural features. I rode this track, not to the gnarly potential but to the... oh I’ll stand at the rock garden and see who hits it the best section. Being a native, I’m kind of disappointed. Best of luck to the racers and to Snowshoe to possibly hold another event as such.

[@jonnie2bad]

kinda in the same boat with you, I used to ride here 2-3 times a year. I feel like there is too much machine groomed stuff up top but I guess they wanted some speed before they give them the tech stuff. Not sure the riders are gonna be so stoked on the fresh fresh new track not rode in at all. If it gets wet it's gonna be a fucking slop fest with bikes coming down with 20 pounds of clay stuck to them. I feel like lower hairball would have been a good decision but what do I know,

[@thingswelike]

@@jonnie2bad Worth remembering that the live feed will be the bottom half of the track, so if they put some really gnarly stuff up top, it could decide the race and we wouldn't see it.

[@butchgreene]

Consider that this is going to be all World Cup riders, with only 5 guys in the field from our entire country who can keep that pace, and stuff you and I ride at our pace gets a whole heck of a lot hairier. Everybody is going to go all out for this last race and wants to end the year on a bang. Stuff is going to get really, really stupid in places we wouldn't think about. There will be probably be at least 1 carted off from a tank slapper in the grass. World Cup speed high siding...ooooffff

[@iconolater]

Yeah boyeee

[@GNARBikeParkCumbriaUK]

Let us all pause for a moment and give thought to all the spokes, rims, rear mechs and tyres that are about to take their last ever ride down this track.

[@FlyingMeta]

Rest in pepperoni
