 Tell you what, I was blown away watching them live in Mont Sainte-Anne this year. This vid is sic, but it doesn't capture the true speed they carry. You have to get to a World Cup round/World Champs at least once in your life to experience it!! Keep the vids coming though, very inspiring.

 Mate, I Could not agree with you more. I was fortunate enough to see the World Champs in Canberra and the speed at which these guys ride is mind blowing, freaks.

Sean, top work on the vid as usual.

 Good thing Specialized doesn't need Sam Hill to do any PR work... no personality, he didn't even seem stoked to win, other then he said he was. To bad you could cross Brett Tippie and Sam Hill

 What's wrong with you guys!?!

The dude is very shy!

Just because he can ride a bike faster than anyone in the world does not automatically endow him with any kind of media skills.

Why is this so difficult for people to understand!

flag freeridermtb4 (Oct 17, 2010 at 3:04)
 turning is fun is just upset because we think sam hill isnt good at PR, but sam hill is super fast on a bike. So I really think he just needs to relax, life is just to short to be angry

 ya but it requires tons of maintenance. they have to recoat them all the time because the DLC coating wears off. Its still in development and thats why only the top notch guys have it.

 Anything Sean Anderson does it gold! It isn't overly Slow-Mo'd, or full of shots that don't even focus on the rider. Really well done.
