EWS Northstar Full Highlights 2019 - Round 7

[@micahrushin]

The mountain bike community is hands down the best out there

[@mannyl3766]

My money was on Richie, a local East Coast rider, but Sam has been a long time hero and I hope he gets the over-all! A 5th place finish for Jesse with a broken hand is absolutely insane! Thanks PB for the amazing coverage!

[@funkyduck4743]

Noooooooo! I'm SO gutted for Eddie... he was having a sick season! RIP

[@dank3823]

Best race and course of the year. The titans, Rude & Hill battling to the end.

[@jptothetree]

I miss racing downhill at Northstar!! So rad to see these riders hitting all the classic trails there. Super excellent production guys! Thank you :D

[@ariel_monaco]

Sorry for Eddie Masters, he was doing so well this year... Now Sam is going for his third title!

[@kannonbo4175]

sorry to be off topic but does anybody know of a tool to log back into an Instagram account..? I was dumb lost the account password. I love any help you can give me

[@adrienblaine1992]

@Kannon Bo instablaster :)

[@keyshey]

thanks for the awesome coverage Pinkbike!

[@razmtb5028]

happy to see Maes again on the race

[@jayk2838]

So sick to see Ropelato on the podium! Keep ripping Mitch!!

[@dronechoons]

Really nice tribute that, thanks. Sounds like a man who enjoyed life to the full, which is the best we can ask for!

[@pietynisko8386]

refreshing this channel from 20 hours. Now there is!

[@DJhunta]

So freaking cool to see the elites back in California racing! After seeing many Worlds Cups in the early years at Mammoth and BiG Bear! Northstar served it up great watch!

[@levinelly9056]

That view is insane!!

[@myideas8548]

Richie Rude and Sam Hill battling it out, down t the wire. Doesn't get better than that for me personally..

[@Jammer715]

so gnarly. easily the craziest round

[@4gotmine]

How does this have so few views!? Pinkbike knocked it out of the (bike) park with this coverage!

[@tomcolquhoun6748]

Courdurier is unstoppable! Such a powerful racer

[@rogerserafin]

Excellent coverage.

[@adanielweaver]

I've ridden all those trails except the new one and can confirm they are gnarly. Especially late in the season when it hasn't rained in two months

[@janemccallum3968]

Great coverage thanks.

[@halokiller711]

kind of funny to see myself in the background, it was a great idea to go home and see the races!

[@davidjacques2090]

Awesome dude!! Good come back for Martin Maes ! Go Belgium :-)

[@ImTiago]

Why got he banned?

[@piciu256]

@@ImTiago mistake with drugs.

[@givemeakidney]

So Maes is drug free and 30 seconds off the pace, where before he was dominant 🤔.

[@DeezNuts-ik6xl]

“Mistake” uhuh...

[@DeezNuts-ik6xl]

richie smith Exactly

[@NorCalRide]

Best round yet.

[@JClark2600]

If your here to see the route at N* goto @4:33 that should give you a good route. But some of the EWS was cut for the race and isn't normally there for the bike park just FYI.

[@DasRightfortyforfo]

The speed they are riding the stage 1 chute at is insane. It was so blown out and sketchy.

[@DeezNuts-ik6xl]

It helps to have the confidence that if you go as fast as you want and you break a wheel or anything that a brand new replacement is waiting for you at the tent. That is huge boost. If i break a wheel i know im toast.

[@DasRightfortyforfo]

@@DeezNuts-ik6xl They can't just throw on a new wheel. The top pros get all of their stuff marked up with stickers and they have to finish the race with the same parts they started with. Either way that chute wasn't a rim breaker, it was just totally like surfing and for us mortals was really tricky.

[@DeezNuts-ik6xl]

austin kruisheer Agreed, i meant during practice they can break a few parts with no budgetary issue unlike most non sponsored peeps

[@smokedsalmon3907]

Pink bike rules for this kind of coverage! What a race. I'm so close to northstar and still haven't been up there yet. So much stuff to ride in NorCal.

[@piciu256]

Nah, Ben Cathro is better, shame he's DH only :/

[@alecjordan6955]

Anyone see the stage 3 women’s time differences? Guess they forgot to put that in lol. 9:45

[@luisof353]

And on 21:34 they repeat the riders standings instead of manufacturers standings

[@olrenison]

Absolutely awesome bicycle riding right there. Unbelievable how close the top riders are in the mens and the dominance of Isabau. Really gutted for Eddie 😟

[@crush1221]

Hill's line at 9:50 is classic

[@Mtbmxing]

Damn that was hype

[@zyoungson215]

Damn enduro & dh is looking good nowdays

[@krazy8820]

I love Richie's helmet.

[@mtbnz]

So was Sam racing with flats? Coz holy guacamole if he was. He’s the man and so good to watch.

[@DeezNuts-ik6xl]

Yes he always does

[@justinsparrey177]

Brutal! LOVE IT!! 🤙🤙🤙

[@Purzelburschen]

Courdurier is a beast. But wait till ravanel is back 🚀🚀

[@jorgeivancanonparra2498]

what is the name of the song that sounds in the video from 15:32??????

[@benwili9689]

Best so far??? Also what happened to the graphics?

[@redeyesamurai1194]

Does anybody know the name of the song they played during stage 3?

[@JClark2600]

Question if you ride N* how many of us have installed tire inserts (ie. CushCore) just for Karpiel and to some extent Stick & Stones?

[@keyshey]

9:49 all three of them got the same time?!

[@93157]

1st. Noga Korem: 9:22.53 2nd. Isabeau Courdurier: +2.02 3rd. ALN: +3.38

[@rpiian]

Wild race! Melamed’s nose wheelie @13:25 ➡️ 😳💩

[@nyeguyscienceman7896]

Omg last round already😢

[@thephoenixcycle8854]

Last round for a long long time😩

[@yodave1]

Flying that thing down without body armor, I'd be scared absolutely shitless. Probably even with armor :-)

[@SimonBarret]

Just brutal !

[@marksevy]

Does anyone know - were all the stages lift served at the bike park? Looks super rad, but how's the XC/trail riding directly adjacent to Northstar if I were to go riding there for a long wknd.?

[@chefkoch_charly]

this is unreal

[@FelixClaeys]

I want to se more riding!!!

[@lusenator]

Northstar isn’t a town, it’s a resort that’s in Truckee, CA ;)

[@SteezyMcEasy]

Ryan Luse thank you! Lolol

[@lusenator]

@@SteezyMcEasy haha I didn't want to be that annoying guy that makes corrections in youtube comments but they kept saying it and even put it in the birds eye view animated map and I just had to lol

[@TwoGuysOneVan]

8:33 That's not riding... That's surfing... On a bike...

[@ernestfrigelj2876]

Yeahh Mitch

[@powskier]

What's the difference between Enduro and downhill? Seems the same to me. Maybe not as big of jumps.

[@KeanuSwayze]

Holy Malemustache!

[@fillfreakin2245]

Man those rock gardens! They have to build trails that justify the big push for mainstreaming the 29" wheels.

[@downhillgravity4376]

Is Sam Hill the best ever?

[@polishguywithhardtospellna8227]

19:44 Noga in polish language means a "leg", no joke ha ha, she would have some tough times if she'd attend polish schools

[@mikeed666]

Anyone running axs derailleur this weekend ?

[@luisof353]

21:34 wrong standings

[@hardtailparty]

Go mitch! Nice "fird" place.

[@m_one1]

Courdurier should just race mens elite, its like not even fair for all the women riders lol

[@johncast9565]

But did Sam run flats in that gnar 🤔

[@DM-hw4cr]

Yes

[@DeezNuts-ik6xl]

He always does

[@Co-km6cl]

9:48 editing mistake ;)

[@allaboutU-Tube3456]

Click thumbs up if you are rooting for Sam Hill.

[@peterrent657]

Austria is so nice

[@ridemx323]

ROPO!!!!!!!!

[@southpawlibranine3511]

Sam competing with Richie who is in his prime. Imagine Sam hill in his prime. I don't think Richie would come close.

[@DeezNuts-ik6xl]

Correct, no one would stand a chance against younger version of Hill. Plus Hill has to look at the overall he cant go risking it all like Richie is.

[@jakovsvilokos9017]

Dont put winner as a thumbnail!!

[@horizonxx_1]

I still don't get why some DH give Enduro shit

[@levihoward4470]

Can not master anything unless you master techniques

[@nathan4432]

We're in the US, please use Feet, not meters. thanks. (we should use meters lol)

[@ErichVonCartmann]

At first Erich Von Cartmann was not a big fan of this Gay British Commentator, but slowly but surely, Erich is warming up to this Gay Brit. He does some good WORK!

[@danny-nb9ge]

first

[@HarryKuloh]

Gayest

[@A1soldiersaint]

how is this any different from downhill? So silly. Get a moto bike!!!
