Megavalanche Qualifying Race

Take a run down my qualifying run with me from today.
Thanks to all the back markers that moved of the way, and sorry for yelling at you 🤦‍♂️😆 stressful getting chased down a mountain!

Amazing Ride Jack..unreal

[@brucemannjr]

Good qualifying Jack

[@mitchwarren1600]

Absolutely fantastic a world class performance.

[@stevekelly5381]

Telling those riders to go again knowing your enemies were close behind was a super mario move lol

[@JackReadingMTB]

literally 😆

[@billietyree2214]

Thanks for letting an old man ride along with you, it was a thrill. Sorry you had to do all the work.

ha ha classic

[@johnu730]

Wow, that was an EPIC ride! Great footage, made me feel like I was riding.

[@FranzSweden]

Thx Jack for sharing, and a strong performance. The bail in the beginning wasn´t expected but you kept pushing!👌

[@dutch_downhill4151]

Damn what an amazing Run! Glad we let you skip the line at the Pic Blanc lift, so you and your mates could be on time🚀

[@JackReadingMTB]

Yes thanks for that! That line up was wild, we only just made it!

[@tim2013]

Saw your crash on Killian Bron's video, then saw your Instagram post. Glad to hear you're (mostly) okay, that crash looked dangerous AF.

[@mcRast]

Wow. That was just an absolutely amazing run!

[@stevemstar]

Nice one. 👍🏽

[@joaoesdevao461]

[@charliewilliams5589]

I'm bringing you an air horn for next year dude! good luck Sunday! :)

[@Mortizul]

Good luck in the race!

[@eifelitorn]

I think he had a pretty brutal crash in the finals :/ the snow was melting pretty fast this year, which made the beginning a real bitch if you were not in the top 3

[@ShrekLorrain]

There are a lot of tourists in this race. It was more difficult but with a good yelling that's all okay. These lost sheeps run away on the side track fastly. Good performance and effort.

... hello friend that "curious "... the few times you fall during the journey, I also think I feel the blow .... (I have some bruises) ....

[@edcollante]

RIDER!

[@nickk4175]

One of the best qualifying race so far, yelling at those back markers was justified ...but just a word of "Thanks" as you passed them would have been great. Will be looking out for you in the finals. All the best. 👍

[@JackReadingMTB]

Mate it was all I had in my lungs to shout at them to move. Last year two guys were in the way and refused to move, which I why I was so explicit this time around. When I posted this video I added the "thank you" to the back markers in the description, incase I'd upset anyone 😉

[@Murchad99]

@@JackReadingMTB I don't know the protocols, but I'm little surprised the fans and monitors aren't warning these bikers that an actual race pack is coming up behind them.

It looks like you were just too good for all the rest of competitors.

[@cliffordfernandes9871]

Where is the full race video? That was epic..

[@JackReadingMTB]

I took a big crash on the glacier in my race run mate! I need to do an edit from it. The crash went fairly viral you may have seen it

[@RavemasterX]

Sub-16 is awesome with a crash on the plateau! I asked this on your other vid but will ask it here as well: why do you think the times were so fast this year? The course, or just people upping their game? I only got in the Challengers, but will use the snow riding tips you gave me to go for it on the snow! Cheers!

[@JackReadingMTB]

Not really sure mate… I’ve only done the qually once before (from this start) which was last year and I think I did a similar time. Maybe people are going faster lower down the field though and level as a whole is lifting 🤷‍♂️ Enjoy the race dude 🤙😎

[@RavemasterX]

You did 17.11 last year according to TimingZone (sorry for geeking). This video would seem to suggest that you did it in 17 mins dead though. Either KZbin has cocked up the frame rate conversion to slow you down, or all the times this year are off by a minute...🧐 Edit: further geek detective work makes me think the official times are indeed off. 17 mins flat with a crash and more snow than last year is still pretty blinding BTW! But it's bad news for me, as I didn't improve much at all from last year 😔

[@IgWalker115]

@@JackReadingMTBWell done Jack smashed it. Allez MotherF@#kers

[@JackReadingMTB]

Yes you’re right mate. We’ve all been talking about it and timing was well out 😅

[@DandyHippo]

How the fk are there dudes practicing on the track in the middle of a quali? Also what wheels/casings you are using?
