RED BULL HARDLINE TASMANIA FINALS !

[@andrew8957]

Chin up Bernie, you still nailed it. Let’s smash that WC this year!

[@robertocalvo934]

Ronan's run was too clean, nothing one can do but applaud. We'll get it at the WC and we do it under the rain, as it should. Chin up my friend, we are getting closer to the top of the mountain

[@fredbaldwin3274]

True ICON of the sport! Helping everyone and especially working with the ladies ticking off the big features! You are an ABSOLUTE Legend Bernie!

[@topspot4834]

I love how Bernard is like the big brother out there now. And he's a good man for taking the ladies under his wing.

[@SecretSpots]

The fact that you can be bummed with a 2nd place at one of the most difficult MTB races in existence just shows the level of standard you are at and expect! That's outstanding. We're all super proud of you! Thanks for taking us along for the ride!.🤙

[@stevelongton2992]

Got nothing to be unhappy about, you carry them all week and then finish second, great achievement in a beautiful part of the world. Take some time to smell the roses.

[@nomadcarpenter8549]

I think its healthy to allow yourself to feel disappointed and unhappy with a result. Part of emotional maturity is allowing yourself to feel those feelings and move on rather than repressing them.

[@stevelongton2992]

@@nomadcarpenter8549 Yes, I totally agree with you, however, Hardline has really taken its toll on BK and he needs to remain focused. Those that win, focus on winning, those that come second focus on the winner.

[@PreferredAxe]

The fact that you put your own shit to the side at the end there and celebrated your mate's victory with him was awesome. True class. Well done on 2nd mate.

[@crt269]

Congratulations regardless mate, what you personally do for Red Bull Hardline is second to none. The support you give to the other competitors is amazing and in my opinion so professional. This year is going to be a great year for you.

[@keepingourpubliclandsopen1671]

DONT BE BUMMED WITH A 2nd. You are one of the most beloved racers in the world! Being 5th or 6th in the world is an amazing accomplishment! We are all so proud of you! As I was watching the podiums, i could tell you were bummed. CHIN UP, move forward!

[@jokermtb]

getting 2nd feels so much worse when you're soooooooo close to first... Has to be so frustrating!

[@JRCOZY]

BK your POV content is better than watching the actual event on Red Bull TV! Chin up legend, you smashed the event

[@MikeOnaBike]

You’re the spirit of this competition. Every time you show up everyone wins!

[@charlespicard4038]

Making us wait at the start gate with you was a good bit of cinema. Cheers.

[@frankharradence732]

Thanks Bernard for a great weeks filming; made for amazing exciting viewing, loved the way you interacted with fellow racers fans and the media. Just a gnats whisker from winning, so wanted you to win, feel gutted for you, but hey still a brilliant result and your still the Hardline fans winner...roll on the WC season, Scotland is calling.

[@jennifergallant543]

Your the Heart of this sport and inspire so many ppl to get on their bikes and ride chin up brother!!!

[@Limestream73]

Just love these raw videos with long sections of uncut video.

[@PhillipAllen-w1s]

Have been watching all of your build up podcast to this event, also all of your events over the last year in between and have become so emotionally involved that i was as you are so gutted with the result, but you can be so proud of yourself to do that after everything you do behind the scenes is remarkable and its so nice to see everything coming together for in every aspect of your life, keep it up with you all the way🤘

[@gab4719]

Legendary effort & brought a smile to all us Tasmanians....cheers for the good times 🍻

[@marlenechapman6660]

2nd is a great achievement as.much as I wanted you to win Ronan was faster this time.Love watching you all week and the bravery of you,Matt and others the fact the wind and rain hailed off at end was great.Warner said when you were coming down your age was 34 not 33 .Chin up look forward to you doing great rest of year.😊

[@Coolcmsc]

TBH, you and Ronan were amazing. You carried the whole field for a week and made sure the course was safe. And Ronan didn’t have a bike. Between you, you took the process to levels none of the rest can match.🎉

[@olitaylor9482]

That on board race run is mesmerising. Stunning as always BK

[@kaaruba]

#stillachamp for making every track feature safe for your fellow racers brotha.

[@ericsharp5079]

Gutted for you! Nothing to be disappointed about brotha! You put down a heater! So did Ronan! second place and no injuries at Hardline!! Nothing to be ashamed about!

[@dreadiedude]

Really appreciate all the footage - leaving in the suspense before the race run, getting the actual race run in, and all the stuff at the bottom! I can't imagine how difficult it is to sit at the top there waiting to go, especially after a big crash just in front of you a few runs before.

[@TonyStark-ik9em]

It's funny, i was watching this channel the whole week leading to the event and it got me thoroughly hyped up on it. Boi what a letdown the official "broadcast" was - just the most basic tech, the only sensor metrics they showed for about 1.5sec. was one speed trap, drone footage looked like 240p - there was NO sense of how gnarly, crazy and dangerous the course was, they couldn't be bothered with bringing enough gear so there was this one place where we had to watch the empty jungle for 5sec. ... enough ranting, this video gives good closure on the event, thank you very much for putting in the effort of uploading all the time and bringing the sport closer to people interested. A bit sad for Bernard he couldn't grab the win, not much he could have done though, the harsh lighting on raceday didn't help and Ronan was just flying.

[@NZWozza]

You guys all put on a hell of a show, thanks for taking us with you once again with the LSD.

[@thomasdyson8329]

Gutted on 2nd that was a tough race and Ronan smashed it! Was happy though that both of my favorites came first and second! Go on the lads

[@Mtool_CZ19]

what a ride Bernie!!! ure our hero! Thank you so much for doing these vlogs!

[@JohnCDF]

Thank you for all you bring to the sport, being a true gent in the mountain bike world and the ultimate competitor. Agree with all the positivity posted here. Onwards and upwards!

[@graethom]

Bernard, thank you for sharing so much of yourself. The rides were incredible. I almost cannot comprehend how you maintain control at that speed on those slippery trails. The level of the competition is so incredibly high. But all through this competition you show yourself as one of the most amazing promoters, encouragers, competitors, and contributors to the excitement and success of downhill. Few achieve this level in any field! Nga Mihi Nui mate... thank you!

[@thehiddenfortress392]

If ever there was a lesson for the uci , in how to build up to a race . Last week was like the perfect case study. Don't know how they can get it so wrong . Lsd gas to flat and edbull are the perfect mix . Your pov combined with eds actually v good camera work get everyone gagging for race day better than any broadcast TV sport. Thank you . Even got my mum watching once I told her the mach connection. You deserve all that comes to you .

[@stak5074]

Well done Bernie! fast as lightning!!!

[@ricooschmann5797]

Great run, Bernard! I love to watch you riding.

[@doomweaver2007]

Insane. Excellent epic riding hats off to you. Bro 🎉

[@madrx2]

6:13 Landing at that speed into a corner full of slush just looks like a near death experience. Crazy how you guys can literally ride the knife edge between traction/death. haha!! Amazing

[@oldmanstumpie1061]

Thanks for all the brilliant vids during the week. So much effort goes into it. Amazing you're still focused on it even after being bummed at second. Go hard.

[@dae3xt]

you did great BK ! nothing to be bummed about.

[@bakerdeathwish88]

Ronan's run was near perfect, really impressive. Gotta give it to the kid. You're Always the legend BK no matter what!

[@C-24-Brandan]

Keep Killin' It Man, nothing wrong with how you placed & did. That course/track was gnarly , challenging & overall I'd say seemed more challenging than others. Overall was an impressive course/track, the race/event went well & end of the day you made it top to bottom safely & uninjured, placed top 3 and gave it your best!

[@chrismcgourty1756]

Tough day but look what you did leading up to that, testing, intro for all the others, especially the girls and helped get them through a first RBH. Not what you wanted, we know, not what we wanted either but it's been a hell of a week and a great laugh with all the vids. Thanks dude.

[@Deww_C]

Unlucky this year fella☹️ still did absolutely wicked!🤘🏽

[@enduromtb9587]

Bernard you are the man! Thankyou for providing such an amazing insight into this event! Nice work getting Fearon to race haha Good luck for the season!

[@columbiaindieband4717]

Gutted for you. Positive is it’s a great start to the season ahead . Track looked like it had dried a lot by the time you had a your race run. Smash the WC’s now. BK and PFR let’s gooooooooo! Not forgetting the main man Lada

[@CMOOREtbay]

Thanks for the daily updates. Congrats on the killer ride. And thanks to redbull for saving DH for the fans!

[@Bello958]

Watched you all week your a legend BK get that head up bro u should be proud of yourself 👊🏻

[@mej6519]

congrats on 2nd place mate, ronan was a on a heater of a lap was goona be hard to beat that.

[@markf4968]

Awesome videos, thanks Bernie! Poor Matt, tough week.

[@_Aph]

You're the man BK. You'll get it next time. Huge run regardless!

[@ashleytombs]

As I predicted your boy was on the podium with a great run but having 4 Red Bulls before his run Ronan lift up to Red Bulls slogan it really does give you wings he was absolutely Flying in more ways than one unbelievable run can’t believe he’s only 21 so fast so smooth such a talent And I hope Jackson isn’t too banged up that was a gnarly one Plus I cannot wait for next weekend Red Bull cerro Abajo kicks off with Valparaiso

[@jokermtb]

I'm sure RedBull is wincing a bit after Ronan declared on the interview it wasn't helping his caffeine addiction!!!! Getting amped up like that seems to be the X-factor in snipping off that critical 1/4 second for victory...

[@ashleytombs]

@@jokermtb As the Tesco saying goes every little helps but 4 Red Bull is a bit much 😂😂

[@jl-z2461]

love the extended pre race run wait at the top. gets the nerves going and makes it feel like im there.

[@anttiikonen4291]

Epic work BK, keep it up! Youre the man!

[@pawsan69]

That was a savage run BK, be proud man.

[@evaiscoolest]

Mate you are the king of hardline!!

[@RockMumbles]

What a week! You rode hard, escaped injury, ended up on the podium ... Maybe not the results that you expected/wanted but you should be proud!

[@leonemccallum2397]

Blimey BK. You shouldn’t be despondent. These races are run on such slim margins it’s a bit of a lottery in the end. Every podium is a winner! And we love your work. It wouldn’t be the same without you!

[@comedyash]

I suppose this only makes you more hungry for that WC win. I'll be at FW to cheer you on mate! Incredible effort as always and appreciate the hard work on the LSD's.

[@redbullhamster]

This is what a day of racing feels like. Hell yeah.

[@georgeharris1214]

BK. Keep living the dream . Thank you you did great

[@dunkie976]

Tough day but look at what you've done BK!!!! To you guys this is all pretty normal, but to us.......this is all frikking incredible, and how you coach and look after everyone is so commendable. But mainly....you made it through injury free and can now look to the world cup now........See you at The Fort man we'll be cheering you on dude!

[@tassiemat.d3715]

thanks for coming to Tassie this event will change MTB here cheers

[@jokermtb]

dangit! we were pullin' for ya! I'm sure you've heard it a million times, but it still stings coming ever so close!!! garrr!!!

[@andyb9664]

Amazing run! It's called hardline for a reason 👀👏🏻

[@fidy8dub]

Crazy close bro was screaming at the telly for ya!!

[@Onceayoungidiot]

Unlucky, BK! You rode a great race,but Ronan’s run was just superhuman.

[@Cranckmexx94]

This should be the liveStream PoV, amazing!

[@RiderNambaLast]

Это жесть конечно, новая трасса шикарная, спасибо за видео, ты жесткий)

[@G-DUB83]

Awesome coverage this year! That first part of the track is what made or broke a run! good job and effort man!!

[@chemakajimenez40]

Enhorabuena Bernard!!!! Eres el mejor

[@littlehobbies]

you were flying BK geat performance look forward to seeing you crush the WC this year

[@eugenespreutels8305]

So close, a great ride but you looked a little off to me. A long week of riding definitely takes its toll. Thanks for sharing all of it with is, cheers!

[@stumpy25lbs]

Mate, you came second and smashed it. Proud of you brother! 🤘🏼🔥

[@christophermiller6573]

BK. You are always in the hunt! You keep putting yourself in position to win....Your consistency and leadership is why everyone at the Events look to you to go first off the big features and the women look to you to help them progress. All that to say, there is no dominant rider in Downhill today.....so the guy that is consistently at the top, always poised to succeed, has a much better opportunity to win, than the guy who has the ride of his life! Keep pluggin along, BK. We love watching the LSD and the openness of your Diary. You would not be you, without being gutted at finishing 2nd. This too, shall pass! On to the next!

[@MarkieMTB]

Congrats mate ! Youre a beast mate, keep pushing ! Much love matey

[@MrOvertSandStorm]

Well done Bernard! Well done to Ronan too! I thought the coverage was a bit rough this time, the camera work wasn't as good as usual. Oh well! still a mega race

[@ReverseRG1234]

Don’t know what livestream you were watching, but the redbull tv stream showed the podium celebrations

[@MrOvertSandStorm]

@@ReverseRG1234 hmm I swear it cut away to showing Ronan's run for ages

[@MrOvertSandStorm]

@@ReverseRG1234 oh shit, yeh it did haha you're right. Fair enough. My point still stands about the racing camera shots

[@crashburn1379]

i reckon it's because it the first time in this track, they will make adjustment next year that.

[@hampusmyrefeltwestman488]

Yes BK😍💪 Amazing run🥳

[@DangerousDav]

Unlucky bk, we were all gutted for you but RD was truly amazing. Still can't get my head round you being so much faster in the wet though.

[@jambo52]

mate your the hero of the event you come down that course in blazing colour and glory ! get the new YE album on and lets keep moving on up ! peace bro

[@NIK666999]

Congratulations on 2nd 💥💥💥

[@thehelmetsrideagainmtbchan7942]

Well done mate, you will smash Wales Hardline, look forward to that 😎🤘

[@XeviSi]

This race run looks unbeatable, WTF did Ronan do? Unbeliavable😲

[@AlphaPews]

BK your a legend. 😎 hopefully get to see you in Wales.

[@steezerider1480]

Congrats! sketchy conditions, gr8 result 😎🚲

[@Archiebold38]

Hey we know you want the wins and probably cudda, but what you bring to this comp is 2nd to none, the content, the effort, I’m sure the competitors totally respect you, I think the prestige is there bud, I’m sure it’s not about money…see you in wales…

[@thomasbenito274]

Considering what you went through last 2022 Hardline, I'd say you were able to redeem yourself. Let's get the next one!

[@adampotts5911]

Well done bruda BK maybe not the outcome ya wanted but you tore da hill a new one and as an ambassador ya smashed it helpn others n going above n beyond should be stoked bruda well done mang

[@mariusactiontours5779]

Great Run Bernard

[@thecremeegg]

No shame in losing to a run like that, thanks for the content!

[@joshd2925]

Yet to watch the full runs, but I’ve got to say, if you didn’t win with this run the winner had a run from the gods, you absolutely smashed it…

[@eatsleeprace]

Sure, we hear you. Just from a viewers perspective: What a monster of a run and a podium for the leader of the elite pack. Wow.

[@bod3000]

Well done on 2nd. Sorry you didn't get the win. Thought new event was worthy of hardline title. Good luck for Wales

[@mtbewan5632]

I love the self criticism here u still smashed it and your looking for improvement 🙌
