This is such a great format - I much prefer this over him standing in a spot while people come through. Walking down the track with video of all the riders doing the different things he's talking about, while he narrates it is truly an inspired move. You hear the description, see what's being spoken about, see the comparative lines with people actually riding them, and highlight what the pros and cons of each one are, for the whole track. In the past, it's been more general like "There are lots of compressions in this section" or "It's really rooty and hard to see with the dappled light" - in this one it's much more detailed, clear, and with more clear comparisons and video. Please do it this way for all of them, this style is so much better.

[@alexjaffrey5534]

Totally agree, this formatt was really informative and much more enjoyable to watch. Great work Ben and the Pink Bike crew!

[@lauralong3091]

retweet^^^^ couldn’t say it better. the descriptions are so detailed and clear.. going over all the options, and playing them over those video clips almost makes it feel like a mini DH clinic from a pro. ben should throw his venmo @ in somewhere haha. srsly tho this is quality content and a super exciting way to share. i would totally watch another track breakdown like this. good luck to ben!

[@Kevin_Aus]

Ben was 67th. Only the top 60 qualify, so unfortunately he missed out. Next time mate. We're all rooting for you !!!

[@andrewaltermatt6499]

Ben these are the best videos out of the dh tracks. Let’s us get such a good look at the tracks vs POV runs or track walks. Keep it up

[@amargnwalkr]

These videos are so damn good! Dammit Ben, you're almost there! Great video!

[@oliverbourne9599]

That was literally the best WC DH track breakdown and preview there has ever been. Saw all of the track, possible lines, riders on the sections being previewed and even PoV of the sections and lines included, not to mention the CathroVision ghosting. Literally feel like I've walked the track myself. Totally essential viewing before the race

[@wpf312]

That was thoroughly enjoyable! Great format.

[@jacobdeangelis7702]

BEN is GOAT. this format is awesome all of bens DH vids are killer. PAY THE MAN

[@billisbad2220]

Great perspective of the track and what the riders are looking at. Nice job!

[@oningsur954]

CATHROVISION. ALWAYS LOVE IT!

[@Johannes__]

Dunne is charging this year! Great future ahead for him, especially with this being his first elite year!

[@gonzaloberdugo6954]

By far the best preview of a race. Never seen it this way before. Great job. Please do this for every race! Thanks!!!

[@NOUS123ONE]

This is the best pre race video ever. Please keep doing this.

[@paulalbe4587]

This is the best video on KZbin. Ever.

[@jevanskickstandcrew8373]

This is great detail for those who love dh but watch it from a far and great to see Ben on his bike too

[@waynephilbert]

That ghost section is so watchable. Thanks Ben + PB for this!

[@sebsp]

Great editing ! Analysis and comparison are awesome ! Thanks.

[@daveraybould9539]

Yes! Love the format and breakdown of lines.

[@MS-fo8vr]

Cathro & Pinkbike killing it with the content!

[@christopherkahler6742]

amazing videos from pinkbike and ben. could watch these all day. hats off.

[@chrzzzzz]

In the off-season I'd love to see a series covering tracks around the world that could replace the existing world cup DH tracks. Racers often say they'd like to race different tracks. You could break down why they'd be better/more interesting than the current tracks. Be a chance to bring attention to awesome tracks people may not know about, plus a chance for you to travel and ride all over the show.

[@jonasolofnordlund]

Your videos are great. They really show so much more of what down hill racing is. Thank you

[@imnotgivingmynametoamachine683]

More great coverage! I hope we get more Privateer over the winter after DH wraps up!

[@katatat2030]

I appreciate the captions, also excellent videos overall

[@teddysnaps4786]

Craik looks so good druring practice, I would love to see a live stream of the juniors to see what's catching him up.

[@bigbadbennyt]

Awesome video! More of these for future rounds please!

[@shralpmedia3889]

Can’t wait for the race! 🔥🤙

[@justinsparrey177]

Qualify! Qualify! Qualify! 🤞🤞🤞

[@JonnyRide1976]

As a novice I really appreciate what your breakdown does for my riding let alone the competitors.. Good Liuck keep smashing out the laps..!!!

[@yattaran1484]

Thanx Ben ! Always fun to watch your analyze ! Wish every Riders Safe !

[@rascal1234]

Great analysis! Love the return of the ghosting comparison. Too bad for Brendan. I hope he will be ok.

[@exhibitD79]

Hope to see you race day Cathro. Thanks again!

[@colinbucknell2970]

Love watching Cathrovision You Rock! Best of luck this weekend

[@speedpilot]

great format and amazing effort put into it

[@jayTmix89]

Awesome breakdown!

[@mcspikesky]

Best breakdown

[@betonblack95]

Excellent coverage!

[@Jester1411]

it would be cool as an experiment to have all the lines analyzed on a track, find the quickest everywhere then and have a rider taking all these lines and see how he does during the race.

[@MikeOnaBike]

Like the DHarco jersey!

[@OttoVanluchene]

This was an excellent break down!

[@MrJazazello]

Savage insight as ever! Any word on brendog? The kit you're wearing is the nicest!

[@OttoVanluchene]

On the vlog of Bernard Kerr he said he didn't break anything

[@glentot9243]

Ben on 67th place almost there.. daymnnn.. hopefully qualified next

[@tanelsiimon2350]

very cool! thanks!

[@paulhowden720]

Nice 1 man greetings from Andalucia 🤟Top Lad 🤟🤟🤟

[@leezy7201]

Switch to half speed play back and have a laugh - Ben sounds like he took a handful of percs….grin.

[@BurnsRubber]

67th!! So close. Get well soon Brenden.

[@Nate_K111]

Thanks for the video

[@DestroyAllWaves]

Good stuff thank you !!

[@ianfurqueron5850]

So close... but damn the qualifying times were tight!

[@janataman9196]

Damned, I wished you smashed this very tight qualifying, so we can see you racing! Great explanation about the various difficulties of the course, it´s really visible that you rode it. By the way, did you noticed the guy from Lithuania, (Albertas Turba #137), who tried to qualify on a veeery old red/white 26" Trek Session, but DNF?

[@lauralong3091]

sick details.. over practice laps footy?? or are these actually race laps? either way, wow. blood is pumping!!! and holy shit i wish i could ride like that!!

[@TeddyParker]

Some of the scandi flicks inches before a tree are just... Elite level stuff. Especially since it's clearly on a steep bit as opposed to a benched and groomed corner. Margin for error... Not big

[@MikeOnaBike]

How do they do the ghosting? Is it a tripod or a gimbal with programmed movements?

[@JamesMadelin]

Riveting stuff!

[@donspradley6912]

Might be a dumb question but is everyone “clipped” into there pedals?

[@louisgrogan6531]

most are

[@donspradley6912]

Why is everyone running the Supreme DH?

Ghost vid 🚴🚴👍

[@gretchennevens349]

Cool

[@odinmartini8727]

I wonder how many riders watched this video lmao

[@cammackey8259]

NGL tho this looks like one of the least fun and most awkward tracks of the year

[@madtricksterrc1506]

that blowing the whistle thing is just so fuckin stupid imo... like its race/practice stay off the track. it blows my mind why they need that. someone fill me in

[@martincantwell2557]

During practice the track is full of riders standing on the sides checking lines etc. Even during the race media or anyone may have to cross the track for whatever reason. Basically it's just a safety thing. It is useful when at a race I find.
