Steve Peat vs Loris Vergier!! Old vs New school cornering techniques!

There aint no school like the Old School.
Pappa Peaty takes his petit frere down the infamous Pleney main line to run through a few corner drills and to see how their techniques differ, considering there's almost 23 years between them you'd imagine there would be!
Loris may be faster these days, but can he Schralp? All this and more pressing questions are answered in this latest little film from The Syndicate crew!

[@remymetailler]

So fun to see Peaty struggling a bit with sharlping corners ahah, because I don't understand the movement myself. Made feel better to see this legend not getting it that perfect!

[@adocodes]

mao gyud bai

[@diegofcm92]

shralps are better when accidental

[@Bonky-wonky]

The trick seems to be to come in quite square, have the front wheel hit the berm at a sharp angle then unweight the rear wheel completely so it arcs around into the berm. Pretty pointless imo as you lose all your speed and make your tyre wear out twice as quick. I prefer a good old round Sam Hill drift where he actually carries a shitload of speed while skipping half the turn..

[@mgraham1996]

Peaty, what a legend! He was my hero when I started mountain biking about 20 years ago and he’s still quick!😊👍🏻

[@Wargwarn]

Same here

[@Fluflo83]

Same same !

[@bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb366]

Damn, Peaty is still fast af

[@TheSyndicate]

Correct.

[@sultanabran1]

you don't become one of the best riders in the whole world for 20 years and lose it after a couple of years of not competing. he'd still be fast AF even if he's not trying

[@TheDennemont]

Seeing Peaty’s Power Pedal signature move brought back memories of flicking through Dirt Magazine back in the day.

[@stevethebutcher1776]

Whoa peaty........smooth as silk and always humble. More of these edits please.

Yah, man I miss The Syndicate.

Fu-ing love Peaty. He will always be a legend... The man I grew up watching and we are the same age. Still rips after all these years.

[@tucoify]

Peaty was so good in GOT. Loved that flaming sword.

[@thebikehub7421]

When I was a young racer you guys offered me a place on the syndicate team...it was through Hook it Sports many many years back. I couldn’t afford the kit to be on the team though I sure do wish I bought it all on credit and see where it took me....to all you young racers out there...just keep it up...keep your head up and know that some races will end harshly while others will set the tempo for many years...just keep at it.

[@krazy8820]

Thank you for the encouragement! Will remember that.

[@yeahbuddy4712]

Man I remember back in the day watching chain spotting. Going to Birmingham nec when the bike shows were actually good.. Looking at peaty GT LTS with my school mates. He's still a beast and we still in awe of him 20 odd yrs later.

[@mtbrwannabe5484]

Loris’s passion for riding is totally infectious, watching him ride , or talk about riding. I’m like Peaty on corners brake and set, only with a lot less quality than Peaty ❤️🤘

[@kimball_stone]

I started riding DH and such in 2001. Did it on and off until 2010. Trying to come back now and with the changes in bikes and riding styles it's like a whole different sport than I remember! This video pretty much nails it. So cool to see!

[@dillydean]

peaty is just a legend! absolutely brilliant video

[@realornot6460]

Great to see Peaty rockin the grisly Adams look

[@shaunbellefeuille3941]

This was freakin awesome vid !!!! Love seeing comparisons between the King 👑 and others on how they do things

[@Frorideism]

Sick video, interesting to see the difference, and Steve brings hope that you can still shred at 40+ :) 'Shots fired' cracked me the f up haha

[@qfx125]

Love to learn from a proper legend like Steve

[@TheAntoine191]

Loris always gives me the smile :) Thank you man !

[@stevesnailfish]

My mouth is dry !!!! Great line..... Peaty has still got it !!!!

[@DonaldRPilon]

Oh man, these guys are hilarious! Awesome job.

[@ianfurqueron5850]

That was fun to watch - thanks!

[@mosher22]

i could watch vids like these all day long...it's such a pleasure watching two legends, old and young having fun together

[@JakeOlsonTheSnake]

I love the playful fun being poked at this cool, hip term/skill of Shralping. Not all of us have got it or understand it xD

[@MrJasonodonnell]

Interesting note said here about how much Berm is in modern Trails. As fun as they are, I feel its taken out a lot of the Challenge. The Trails we built 20years ago would catch you off guard real fast, mostly due to the clandestine nature of old school track building, but for all their faults I think added more challenge, But way less refinement, not that I want that back really.

[@stephenparker3403]

Thanks for posting Syndicate dudes . Real entertaining content Loris is a cool guy but that was a just one big bucket of peak Peaty. Has he ever thought about brewing beer ?

[@goldenmath4091]

Brilliant , now how I know how my son feels when I talk old skool... Still insanely fast, and comical

[@ninoroldan2448]

0:51 love the way Peaty looks at Loris; "yes lad, you got that right". Peaty imparting wisdom

[@harrygrimley4352]

This was cool. Real interesting hearing the different perspectives. Thank you. Nice video.

[@50nollieman]

The cornering of Peaty is still fast wow

[@AJMoore101]

Also - Thoros of Myr is absolutely killing these corners!

[@benoliver59]

Just gotta love that old legend of a bugger hahah

Peaty living legend & all round Nice guy & shredder

[@rayred74]

I am going to watch "Wont Back Down" again now because I miss Peaty

[@kanutecarson1]

Peaty should have grown that beard 15 years ago. Makes me wonder if Loris can grow one??

[@hyb300]

utter class vid by 2 top lads! met peaty a few times sound guy seen em both out in morzine this year pics with my lad in plenny lift queue :) top lads

[@pjplay7523]

The earlier riders, as Peaty and Loris chat, gives you perspective on how fast these guys are when they Sccchrralllppp at the end 🤟 I’m coming back as a pro dh in my second life, it just looks like one big party 😂😂

[@nicom4996]

Oh que oui! Totally like Loris. Rock solid on the berm and then POW im out

[@dank3823]

Peaty's still got it

[@melsolorzano]

This was nice to wacht haha cheers from Costa Rica

[@sameol_g7553]

1:09 slap em’ and shralp em’ Guy in the background: Ok 😃

[@kountification]

Cool vid guys!!! But I think the longer wheelbase will make it harder to shralppp!!!

[@Dan23_7]

Mr Peat and MBUK in the 90s and 00s 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼

[@jessesnydermontereypersona161]

Wish we had some corners like that to schralp!

[@willjones7132]

Cool video, I think once your around berms enough you realize sometimes the are overkill and you don't need the who thing, and if your trying to get down the mountain fast you might not need much of it, or any of it. I got disqualified from a NORBA DS event because I didn't use a usless berm but pedaled through it on the flat on the inside while still being on the correct side of the gate, sports politics.

[@CR-di1lg]

wow best mtb video in a long time

[@borisajkula]

Minnaar might be the grates Bruni is the game, but Peaty is legend and no one explains better bikes and biking than Loris!

[@DHOBSESSIONS]

Peaty still fast, awesome episode

[@lukenukem1164]

Met peaty last year at bikepark Wales, still legit fast!! 👊

[@calypso2niner]

Man, I have missed Loris talking to the camera this year.

[@AJMoore101]

2012 is old school....? Jesus I am old 😂🤣😂🤣

[@richardmiddleton7770]

I can't 'shralp' but it seems you need to get the tyres sliding on the loose stuff on the inside and eventually grip on the berm half way through the corner.

[@John_D2]

hope to see the boys on the track this year.

[@GallantLee]

I hit like within the first 2 seconds I saw Steve Peat

[@vincentblanc8432]

Great video!

[@Bristecom]

I suspect Peaty and the old school technique is due to being more gentle/smooth on the bike/wheels/tires due to them being more likely to break back then.

[@thatdeafguyuk]

Let's get some super long super so-called 'old school' tracks back onto the WC circuit just to be evil with the newer whipper snappers!

[@maximilianschreff4735]

Loris kit looks really sick

[@stevenconnor4221]

Steve Peat utter legend but every time i watch him i just think Jason Mcroy and what a talent we have missed. Sorry peatty i dont know why and it doesn not in anyway shape or form take from your achievments. Hats of to the both of yous.

[@p199a]

awsome vid. pls more vids with bike action

[@elebrocq]

it thought those corners felt a bit shagged last weekend

[@neilf.7222]

Sound effects with The Syndicate

[@2912RH]

Loris was thinking of this lesson on his world champ winning run.

[@max_435]

What was this filmed on?

[@jfnurod]

On his race runs Loris enters the turns hot, turns in aggressively and abruptly which compresses his suspension at turn in and at the exit the rebound accelerates him out. Back to back turns you will see him gaining speed in areas some are losing time.

[@NZWozza]

Can’t remember the track. But I remember Aaron Gwin scoping out the first corners as Loris went through and Gwin went ‘I cant do that!’

[@SKBKER]

It's so sad seeing Steve look like an older man . I hate getting old .
