It’s great to watch an accomplished rider like yourself try out the DH tracks trails to put into perspective for us mere mortals. Way above my pay grade.

@tomcardy your first trial run when you were stopping and taking a look at the features was eye opening at how massive and technical the features are. You made it look easy on the second run. Do you wear body protection?

Last year I ended my 2wk downhill trip in Val di Sole for the WC finals. IT was the roughest it's ever been and the roughest trail in the WC too and it is an insane minefield. Even the red trails in that bikepark are beyond what black trails have to offer in most other parks but the black adder is on a level far beyond black or double black diamond in any other bikepark I've ever seen. I was puzzling my way down there and even then still had to walk bits here and there. Insane to watch the pro's still absolutely attack every single section of the trail though. I was so impressed

This is one of the best videos I've ever seen in terms of really understanding the challenge of these tracks given the difficulty of cameras showing true steepness. As an XC mountain biker I've only ever attempted the Ae Forest DH near Dumfries, and given that I could barely do that, this course is just insane. It would be great to see you do more courses if you ever have the chance.

As expected you looked very comfortable in the speed/jump sections but the techy stuff is craycray. To me the most mind-blowing thing is, how do they brake in those vertical bits, they way they manage to get grip is phenomenal.

Wow crazy, big ups Tom 👏👏👍. More data for perspective. Andreas Kolb (the winner) did the run in just under 3 minutes. Tom’s time was around 5 and a half minute. This is not a fair comparison; it was not exactly the same track and Tom did not make as many practices runs as the competing downhillers… I would have died trying this - as a comparison 😅.

No excuses - a legitimate issue... some riders (or groups) just stop right on the track, limiting line choices or forcing a speed reduction in anticipation of what they might do next, or just stop at the end of trail, and leaving other incoming riders no run-out space or escape route at the end, except into a fence or such... trail etiquette or common sense is sometimes lacking - people seem to not think about any others on the trail or those coming along behind...

Hi Tom. i am hoping you can help answer my question I have the AllMtn 10 which has the interface x display that only shows mode and battery life. It looks like the display on your bike is a different style which also shows the odometer, on your earlier videos your bike had the interface x. Which display did you change it too and was it easy enough to do?
