Everything about Hardline is now better than UCI Worldcup DH. The broadcast presentation on this was literally 10 out of 10, and obviously the track and riders are all legendary. Rob and Tahnée are the dream team for DH commentary.

[@nw7654]

They are but I’d love to see rob and pager back together

[@patrickoconnell9387]

And to top it all off, we can actually watch this event without spending a bunch of money. I'm sure the advertisers are much happier with an event like this too

[@NATURALBORNSHREDDER]

Agreed Hardline takes the cake in DH coverage and progression, Rob and Tahnee are a hilarious commentary duo and we can actually see it without spoilers. They need a world series and show UCI how it's done.

[@sebastianhaas5863]

All of the above and great to see all the complete runs of all the riders as well.

[@wx2999]

DH Southeast has even better quality, at least in terms of video imo. But they don't have Rob Warner!

[@manuelmonteiro7809]

Thank you Redbull for putting on such a show! It's a great job you're doing on hardline. You should create your own Redbull world cup, definitely the most incredible show for me 🙏🙏🙏

[@RedBullBike]

it's been a pleasure ❤

[@xeicv]

@@RedBullBike Why the timing discrepancies, though?

[@rexcorkil]

Hats off to Red Bull; the best mountain bike broadcast there has ever been. Course, riding, commentary, production - all 100%.

[@senorbokchoy]

I agreee100%

[@Harry_Gersack]

Right? Tahnee and Rob make a great team. Tahnees observations are so accurate and she has good insights while Rob delivers the flow and always keeps the hype up 🤙

[@heamees4822]

What an amazing event, great riding, commentary, track, everything. And still free to watch

[@Harry_Gersack]

Tahnees observations were on point 👌🏼

[@ejej6934]

A great reminder of how much was lost when Rob was no longer the World Cup voice. His enthusiasm takes a fantastic race over the top. Congrats to all the riders, and thanks, Red Bull, for the amazing coverage.

[@POBMTB]

Can we just appreciate how nice it is to have warner commentating ....

[@elioponsetto8943]

Mate I can't watch the UCI world cup anymore since he stopped commenting it

[@crs19191919]

The co host was extremely bias I thought. Obviously wishing her fellow brit would win, just said nothing but negative things about a winning run.

[@Channel1005]

Warner who, please? Kyle Warner?!

[@joshd2925]

This has to go down as the best Hardline of all time.

[@bermchasin]

just wish we got to see the ladies send a T to B

[@RedBullBike]

❤‍🔥

[@lsugimoto8361]

Agreed

[@Montytobin]

And I was there

[@topspot4834]

Agreed. Wish Jackson was there and feel bad for Bernard, you could tell he wanted it bad, but amazing run by Ronan. Nobody got hurt and it was definitely the most exciting I've ever watched 🇮🇪🏆

[@BizzleByron]

Listening to Tahnee giggle uncontrollably at Robs zingers was so funny.

[@RedBullBike]

you gotta love it 😂🤘

[@drumandbassob0007]

yep cant beat robs one liners missed him so much at the world cups hope he returns one day

[@stellasqueak]

Hardline is now the benchmark for MTB so much more exciting that the World cup, literally the best week watching all the riders come together have fun and show us their flare and style. Gives riders who don't get much airtime at WC'S show us how stylish they are and what else the are capable off, I prefer this so much as well to Rampage as Rampage always feels fixed and to politics driven and corrupt judges. This should be a full race series.

[@tetchypoo]

I’ve never watched any event like this before…I’m just a little roadie…and holy cow was this impressive. The riding, the rider’s enthusiasm for each other, this bonkers course, the last three riders…I’m hooked. Thanks for a great event!

[@mej6519]

hardline is very diffrent to uci downhill. theres a lot more camaraderie, the new comers learn from the guys who have done it before, the whole week is all about progression, every one pushes each other, theres no bad blood. it is becoming the premier downhill events. as well as great comms team, and red bull tv who 100% gets it.

[@tetchypoo]

@@mej6519 It’s giving me skatepark vibes, everyone just hyping each other up and teaching and learning. Sometimes KZbin gets it right.

[@mej6519]

@@tetchypoo i get what you mean about the skatepark vibes n every one hyping each other up. also its not youtube that gets it right mate, its the red bull team.

[@tetchypoo]

@@mej6519 Ha, fair I should have clarified that I meant the KZbin algorithm that sent me this way got it right. Obviously RB put on a really good course and show, thanks for helping me clear that up before someone really got on me about that. 😂

[@NoodleFlame]

Gutted for Matt, was really rooting for him, his qualifying looked incredible 🔥

[@smokingtough]

Him and jono both, man that sucks they both got flats

[@LucaPlattner]

Thank you Tahnee for the insightful commentary! Your focussed observations are a perfect complement to Rob's riotous exuberance.

[@NATURALBORNSHREDDER]

Hardline is becoming the premier DH race, the presentation is straight up, full runs, downhill is finally relevant again because we can watch it, no spoilers, and with epic and hilarious commentary from Rob and Tahnee. Truly a progression and showcase of our beloved sport.

[@chrisjames7803]

Best hardline ever!! Well done to the Athertons and thank you for bringing this to wales!!!

[@danielarredondo]

What a ride from Juanfer Velez and Sebastian Holguin, proud of my Colombian Friends!

[@DeezNuts-ik6xl]

They kicked a ton of butt!! Very proud of them!!

[@DeezNuts-ik6xl]

They did an incredible job and kicked a ton of butt. Very proud of them!

[@mej6519]

now that was a proper event. congrats to dan and the dig team. rob was on top form. also the columbian boys put on a great show. massive congrats to ronan, that lad is diffrent gravey.

[@teakettlediarys4922]

That was soooo sick! UCI pay attention, this is how you should broadcast a downhill race. awesome job from red bull!

[@LJBenji14]

Watching riders slowly catching up and surpassing Brayton's first run actually made it more fun to watch than if he would've started in the middle of the pack like he probably should've! It's crazy the difference in skill and commitment even between the pros!

[@lachyt5247]

Brayton had such a clean top section, was gapping everything to perfection. Unfortunate BK was a bit too intense up there, because he absolutely slaughtered the bottom section, literally made up 3 seconds in a place everyone else was basically riding the same pace.

[@kieranbarry8193]

it was a pleasure and an honour to marshall this event for the third year running....now i just gotta watch the action!

[@dirtbikedave9055]

What a time to be alive. Fantasic riders, commentary and racing. Big props to Red Bull; action sport kings.

[@PhilandErika]

Tahnee is a fantastic co-commenatator - good knowledge of the riders and the course - personal experience from some of the features - nice personable commenatary. A keeper.

[@bassjunkie67]

Insanely good Hardline with all the right elements made even better with Rob & Tahnee's brilliant commentary

[@dabber1]

Everything about this was great.... the racing, the course, the commentary, the filming/video. This is how it should be done.

[@pts95er]

Amazing couple of hours of entertainment without having to spend a penny! Thanks red bull. A new sport I like!

[@WelshGeologist]

"This run could have been 1 of your 5 a day it was so full of goodness" LMFAOOOO what a legend

[@jamescornelison2023]

yes and the way Tahnee kept laughing after he said it Hilarius!

To all the riders and the Redbull crew, that was fantastic. Absolutely awesome, in every way. I'm actually going to buy a Redbull tomorrow at work and drink it to your name.

the iconic hardline commentator voices and the passion they have makes it soo much better, rob sounded like his voice nearly exploded at the end, cant wait for next year good job redbull hardlines the best 🎉

Redbull hardline world series has to happen! This is so so so much more enjoyable to watch than UCI World Cups.. I think a Hardline Canada, USA, Columbia, South Africa, Asia somewhere and Australia

[@loydabmx]

Thank you Redbull for giving us one of the best shows ever. Well done to all Racers going down that brutal track makes you all Winners.

[@raeward8092]

That was fantastic. After the last minute cancellation last year I was worried the same might happen again but so glad it didn’t. Well done guys: no injuries is always a good day!

[@atlaschip5479]

Petition to turn Hardline into a 5-10 round championship. We need more of these then 2 a year

[@LiamMahaMTB]

these riders are born different and i don't even want to know what red bull is feeding them to make them this good 👌👌

[@lenaundnancy]

Can we please talk about the absolute incredible camera work. You saw all of the riders. And the commentator. Rob Warner and Tahnee. You are great. Bring back the downhill races to Red Bull. Good Job🎉🎉🎉

[@ANTheWhizkid]

Just love this event. The package is really good. In many countries like in mine we are working very hard to push the sport so we get recognition, legal trails and good biking. We need events like this. Respect to all people who make it happen.

[@karlosanderson791]

Awesome event and racing, respect to Dan,Gee and Rachel Atherton for hosting and inventing hardline !!! Such a great format !!!

[@topspot4834]

Most exciting Hardline I've seen... Wish Jackson was there and feel bad for Bernard, you could tell he wanted it bad, but amazing run by Ronan. Nobody got hurt and I was on the edge of my seat watching the last few riders 🇮🇪🏆

[@EllisBatishchev]

What happened to Jackson?

[@Xintarx]

@@EllisBatishchev He crashed at Hardline Tasmania and had to get knee surgery

[@EllisBatishchev]

[@deefitz1988]

Best Hardline I've seen. So glad it went ahead in the end.

[@Cerberus9c]

This was such a great event. I still can't get over Brayton jumping that first section. The presentation, commentators and the riders were all amazing. The drone footage really takes it to another level showing the steepness and risk involved. With the Olympics on the horizon, I really hope this sport is in it one day.

[@ShredddT]

Was really holdin out for Bernard. But it’s pretty damn exciting seeing Ronan being so young and consistently THAT fast.

[@simonhill4791]

What an event - the broadcast was utter perfection I think.

[@matthewbuttle]

Brayton’s run was just 🤌🏼

[@kenhorn4327]

I've been watching videos of Rampage and Hardline for years now! These videos get my adrenaline rushing, and I can't imagine what terror I would feel just looking down the track of these courses(mountain sides). Watching the amazing skills and determination of these riders is inspiring and humbling. Thanks!

[@Sheppy99]

Unreal riders, sick track and legendary commentary of RW........ doesn't get any better.

[@ranths]

Don't usually write a comment, but this was so well put together and so easy to watch and get behind. Events like this will see the sport grow. 💯 not to mention Dunne's run, wild but so unbelievably composed. Watching this event gets me fired up to ride 🔥 🔥

[@Bob_Shy_132]

I can't wait for them to get that creek jump sorted! That looked properly scary!

[@themeatpopsicle]

Red Bull has done more for outdoor sports than anyone else in history. A++

[@ripapa6355]

Rob always makes me cheer for the underdog (i.e. early leader), because at some point, he takes the time to really make sure you know that "That time won't stand. The time will go down, waaay down"- Rob, at least once per race. I always imagine that riders mom watching, thiniking 'great run honey' and then Rob comes on "That POS time won't last as long as this cup of tea". LMAO Love it, no complaints here, but it happens every race and I laugh every time.
