That intro is the best 90 second description of World Cup DH racing ever spoken.

[@Sleeper.collective]

🙏

[@paulmiddlemass6465]

Choose DH

[@markbolton6200]

Truth!!! Couldn't agree more!!

[@jaroslavnovak9817]

Nice🤟🤟🤟🤜🤛

[@MattSB2588]

Agree. Brilliantly put together.

[@maggief2879]

I remember when I was 9 and I was looking up to Aimi thinking that I want to be where she is when I am her age. Now at 13 I am looking up to her thinking if she can do this I can do it aswell. It is amazing to see Aimi racing World Cups.

[@rarelycomments]

If you want to do something enough, you will do it.

[@downrodeo]

Can't wait to see you at a world cup too. You can do it.

[@aimi_kenyon]

❤️❤️

[@casestudymtb]

My unconditional love for Cathro aside, the video team knocked this out of the park. A beautiful story, beautifully told. Thanks for bringing us along.

[@_I.M.T.B_]

1. Best intro to a Downhill video ever! 2. Fantastic effort from all involved. 3. Aimi you're a very talented young lady and I predict a Bright future for you. I met your dad when he was out repairing one of the trails near Inverness 😉and I bet he's bursting with pride. You're already inspiring my 7yr old daughter!. All the best.

[@gavinclarke2123]

Will be following 👍, give it heaps and enjoy.

[@lavishglittergun9017]

Cathro's ride series got me going again. Great to see him coaching up the younger racers!

[@dimimtb]

Love the story and the whole thing. Cathro and Henry are both awesome but going through Aimi's first ever DH and watching the process, coaching and overall support, great job to all involved. Can wait to see the rest of the episodes as the year progresses.

[@kristofferbjork8331]

Rad to see this humble girl just going at it! She should be god damn proud of herself! i would beat my ass if i just tried to walk in that track! Great job all you guys!

[@koho]

Honestly, taking someone who barely jumps to *Lourdes* seemed too much. But 9th?? Holy crap! (And Ben's intro is *the best*.)

[@PlaySA]

I couldn't believe that. Although I guess I don't know how many people are in that division. It must be junior division right? Either way an amazing result

[@freethommy]

16:59 that‘s the most beautiful flight i ve ever seen. It‘s like a Boeing 787 in final approach. Great girl

[@ubit123]

Downhill should pay you money for the first minute. Best sale ever.

[@delaneywaltman]

Ben, you're the perfect person to do this series. You're relationship with Aimi, will be great for her. Great first episode! And I almost forgot. Having Henry there for a new team is a great benefit.

[@marcelquintas4249]

What an epic first episode, I liked how it was focused on Aimi. Here professionalism is astonishing for such a young rider. What a nice way to document a young riders first World Cup, especially cool to see first hand what it’s like for a young women get into the sport, I hope this encourages more girls to see Downhill as sport worth trying. So much need for more competitive women in DH.

[@bengordon2330]

Such a mature head on Aimi, but yet all the joy of a teenager doing what she enjoys most. It gives me hope.

[@zombie93]

My favorite part of the whole video was seeing Amy’s progression. She did awesome! How could Cathro not shed a tear?! Well done Amy!!

[@ab_mtb]

What an incredible young woman. Best of luck for the rest of the season

[@andydt82]

Excellent production quality and it'll be great to see Aimi's progress

[@oskarleijon]

This is amazing. Cathro’s intro alone, what a masterpiece. Looking forward to next episode!

[@briandavis21]

This is honestly the greatest biking video series ever made! Has a very formula one survive the drive vibe which is super fun and dramatic and exciting. I would love to see an entire series like this covering more teams.

[@thomasbenito274]

First World Cup race and bagging 9th place? Now that is amazing.

[@otisjordan5613]

Her result in fort william was even more impressive, don't wanna spoil it if you wanna look it up ypurself or smth tho

[@colourofsounduk]

Is err, someone cutting onions somewhere? Seriously great film, props to Max for constructing a great narrative 💪🏻

[@nat29single]

Amazing episode. I was riveted, and as a father of a daughter close to Aimi's age, I was also nervous and terrified for her. Bravo!

[@bike-czech]

That's the beauty of media company owning a racing team. Quality of content is just remarkable.

[@alaninman4474]

Totally absorbing, can't believe that was 20mins long! Beautifully put together by Max as always. Fort Bill episode is going to be an emotional roller coaster!!

[@MrMuuf]

One of the best downhill videos I seen.

[@crouisk]

Tears of joy watching that. Brill team dudes.

[@streddaz]

Well done Aimi! Look forward to seeing your future races.

[@jordansperring-lee4265]

Amy is a hero ! You can see how much Ben cares what a dude man. Very much looking forward to the rest of this series !!

[@nickgartell5058]

Cathro's the right person for this adventure; not OTT narrative but genuine mtbing insider detail. Like everyone else - can't wait for more of it! Oh, and yeah, what a start for the young lass from Scotland! Tumeke (Māori for awesome...I think/hope!)

[@natej7929]

Bravo! What a great first video in the series. Watching Aimi’s journey at her first World Cup was so inspiring and genuine. Keep up the great work!

[@craigmarc]

Brilliant from Cathro, Max and co again. This is going to be great. I did not expect to be teary watching it. Guess that's what happens when you have kids of your own.

[@mxcn-hz5nj]

some of the best mtb content i've seen yet. Cathro and this whole project is gold.

[@markgolding8946]

Brilliant and so happy for Aimi she seems to have a good attitude for racing

[@NatNetNitNotNut]

Damn this series is going to be epic! Aimi we're rooting for you and looking forward to your rise in the furure. Best of luck to the team.

[@Maerchensargk]

This puts so much humanity between all the gear stuff, competition and the too serious racers out there!!!

[@paulmullen6804]

I had a blast working on this! Great work by all involved.

[@steve_troy]

This has the potential to be the best ever video series to come out of Pinkbike.

[@mikeeasey6815]

SUPERB Vid !! Ben, you are a super coach, (and rider, of course) Aimi, WHAT a tuff young lass you are, always love and support a motox/mtb girl, just brilliant.

[@slayer6936]

Top 10 first world cup!! Damm great job girl!! We are all proud of you!!

[@danielgrafik]

What an amazing story and talent Aimi is! Good job!

[@nickcowley8757]

Just getting through the intro deserved a like 👍

[@bongerrazo1]

Awesome job being the support and leader @bencathro definitely the parent in you is coming out. Sick job!!

[@mrbalcom101]

Ben truly is an ambassador for the sport. The knowledge, passion and excitement are second to none.

[@ichaldp]

daaaang...this series is reaaally good...need more of this!!! 🤘🏿🤘🏿🤘🏿

[@cosmicdrummer83]

This is pure gold! Love it already. Kudos for Cathro, all team members and Pinkbike 👏👍👌💪

[@AppleJack76]

This episode gave ALL the feels.

[@ridelikekrum7707]

What a great video! Congrats to Amy for a top 10 in her first WC, nicely done! Congrats to you as well coach Ben.

[@ehrpenduro-freeridehardtai2002]

I've been following Ben since his privateer days. And now this. Sweet. Family had grown bigger. I'm sure this would be another epic, fun, down to earth, honest mtb journey. Thank you PB.

[@katsaras1]

This series just begun and I already love it!

[@ianfurqueron5850]

A great video that captures the allure of downhill racing. A sport I was fortunate to participate in for a number of years and now happy to watch from the sidelines (although I do still enjoy the occasional bike park session). Considering the junior coverage is so minimal, it's really awesome to see the race from Aimi's perspective. Well done!

[@derekadaway6390]

Yeah we really need to see the juniors race feed as well, would be great. Not sure but hopefully Discovery will enhance and not destroy the racing, the lure of money makes people behave shite sometimes. That said what an inspiring story told well, very relatable, now i just gotta learn to hit that little jump, and get in me head the big jump, just needs a bit more speed, and a bit of butt clenching

[@Allsystemsaredown]

That is such a well put together video. Great edit, fantastic story and some wonderful characters. I hadn't planned to watch it all but I was riveted.

[@ChrisJones-we4kq]

What a video. The storytelling in this was perfect. I can’t wait for the next one. Great work Pinkbike!

[@ourelton]

7:00 that was so awesome to see her fly! Well done!

[@JasonFoxLCB]

This is just superbly done on all fronts. The storytelling, the people involved, the shooting/editing/color. Looking forward to more. And Aimi's hardcore.

[@lucasdejong1079]

Wow, I'm hooked. Exceptionally great work on this episode PB Team!

[@Flux_Flow]

Cool to see Henry out there living the dream after GMBN.

[@francoisjoly7696]

Sport and commitment are wonderful. MTB downhill is wonderful. Aimi makes all these elements even more wonderful. Thanks and congratulations for this excellent video.

[@lucaspfirrmann9973]

So cool to see Aimi‘s journey and how she progresses. Awesome video

[@ncb6000]

Ben, u are just the best, what a joy to watch

[@scottkoresky5879]

Go Aimi! We are rooting for yiu here in the states!!!

[@canelami1285]

So excited for this series. Makes you feel like you're there in the middle of everything, love it!!!! Go Team!!!♡♡

[@andrewferguson9823]

Ben and Henry, now that’s a pink bike team!

[@andrewwhite3623]

Genuinely heart warming to watch, Ben and Henry you are stars hope everything goes well for you this season

[@HarryHart29]

The excited noises at 14:30 are so funny! Such pure stoke

[@Fantic156]

What a great video. Congratulations Aimi for overcoming the fears and finishing your 1st Downhill World Cup. 👍 Great team, awesome manager.... 😜

[@haraldweigl5761]

Such an amazing video! Wishing you all a great season.

[@Superteastain]

These series are amazing. Can't wait to watch all of these. Your effort is appreciated.

[@snooketcher]

Awesome video! Can’t wait for the rest of the season!

[@moderategnar3259]

Yes! This is so sick! Can't wait for more!

[@ju5t_joe786]

You are and this is awesome - great intro, great feature, great team! Loved this! Thanks and all the best! :)

[@Venciferus]

Awesome video! Good to see Aimi smash her first World Cup after a few setbacks. This made me want to ride!

[@88Frank]

Aimi is so inspirational for my daughters. She has some serious guts to hit those jumps 👏

[@povteer]

this is great stuff! another high quality banger series! rooting for your team! go pinkbike racing! yew! 🔥🤙

[@charlesgonne7600]

Congratulations to Aimi for her first world cup! That kind of crash is definitely not confidence inspiring, especially on such a gnarly track and she crushed it! Very nice to see :)

[@jimmygee8929]

Great video boys and girls. Really looking forward to many more. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿❤️

[@paul83uk]

Absolutely brilliant first episode!! Well done Aimi!! 👏

[@Ariautoace]

That intro to what DH Mountain Biking is summed it up perfectly.

[@viktorlenart1125]

The editing of this whole feature is just so so giiiiid. Well done, you tallented people!

[@JordansCoasterWorks]

love ben and got so much support for this team. ngl I'm 25 been riding for 3 years and still haven't got over jumping bigger stuff. race BNES events and its a skill I really need to get down. inspiring to say the least.

[@r0sc0b]

Amazing video! It's like Pinkbike's very own version of The A Team! Good Luck To All! I'll be rooting for ye's, especially Aimi!

[@marcmoloney9310]

Absolute masterpiece... So pure... Aimi is one very talented young women

[@asavage3654]

Best world cup video I've ever seen!! Thanks to everyone involved in creating this!

[@ridesingletrack]

Really enjoyed this. It's always cool to see behind the scenes on the World Cup, but especially with someone as fun and insightful as Ben. Will definitely be watching all of this series. Cheers!

[@michaelkosin6215]

Impressive how Aimi was handling the pressure. I wish you a lot of fun and a successfull carrer.

[@timquain5341]

Heavy environment for a teen. She looks like she has a lot of courage and strength. I bet Kenyon will be a name to remember. Can't wait to see her shred!

[@melwestlake8539]

Aimee, well done!! 9th sounds pretty good considering World Cup competition for your first time. I will be following to see how you do this season. Have fun, young lady!!

[@JasonChambersPhoto]

After watching this I can not log out with writing a comment! Ben Cathro you are an absolute awesome Mt Bike personality. Good luck to Aimi, superb little story.

[@kenevil4206]

Amazing vid, Ami is a superstar, and I think she’s got lucky being with a team that I’m sure will support and nurture her progression. I think Reece and Tahnee have suffered with the pressure that comes with racing, and being given a dream, and then struggling to feel like they are worthy of it almost. They both are totally worth it, but having you guys there for her will hopefully help her to not suffer the mental battles that others have, especially once moving up iout of juniors. Really looking forward to this series.

[@tobyisbister331]

Nice work PBR, looking forward to more episodes now 😀

[@highlandendurorider6519]

Another cracking video 🤘🏾 best of luck to you all

[@leonbond9275]

Awesome video. And fantastic effort, Aimi

[@seaofjapanify]

Kudos Pinkbike for doing this. It's beautiful.

[@bri1972]

Great video looking forward to Ep2.

[@meneerbas]

Oh man, 4 minutes in and I’m already super stoked and can’t wait till next episode(s)!!🤣🤣🤪🤪

[@retzrassputin]

Wow, can't wait for the next episode.

[@PaulDudley]

Drive to survive comes to MTB, great stuff.

[@jymtb]

Such good vibes. Go PB Racing!

[@greenfefo_fpv465]

Ben Cathro has to be one of the best presenters I’ve ever seen in the MTB world. Just a delight to watch

[@luca_dierks]

Man, rooting for PB racing. How cool is aimi 😎

[@IanWestwater]
