excellent footage on how insane the terrain really is on what these Pros race on. Jarvis still landing on the podium :cheers:

Jarvis, Torres, Knight, Lettenbilcher and so many more-these guys are not human sometimes!
Lots of cool bikes---

The section on the side of the cliff over the water was pretty nuts.

amazing stuff they do. I was looking at the top 20 hard enduro riders in the world, a lady made the list. Sandra Gomez, Spaniard no less. Seems that country was bred on two wheels from GP to Trials to Hard Enduro

It all looks pretty nuts to me. The physical condition it takes to do that must be pretty extreme.

agreed, consequences are pretty high. Rockpile is bad enough, but jagged sharp rocks on a side of a cliff :screwy:. I suppose they take it to their advantage for better traction

Thats a great point. "some" of that stuff looks doable to me. But I can't imagine being exhausted and even attempting any of that

Yeah, we finally got to ride the White Whale in Kairos yesterday. Its rideable but we get to take breaks to catch our breath. Doing it in an actual race would be brutal. Those folks have amazing conditioning and endurance. Cody Webb has a movie Tactician on Prime that covers his life and training. You have to be all in.
