should be a great race.
as for the course, if they drop into the CW enduro the course will be prime.
as for passing that typically happens on the up hill sections and the downs create sort everything out.
apparently not.

Add to that Korba, Simmons coming in past 50th, and it goes to show how competitive the field was. I rode with some of these guys after friday's qualifying, and could not believe how fast they are.
On a side note, I rode the lift with #6 women's rider, Dawn. Cool chick, but I had to laugh when she called me "Mr. Mullet".
:lol:
you guys actually expected mitchy chuby, brandon semenuk, gareth dyer, and dylan korba to do really well in a dh race?
Why not?
A guy is a solid competitor whether he's DH or slopestyle. They're crazy controlled riders, and it's not like it was a huge field of pros. I talked to a lot of dudes who were there for their first race, or just out for a fun time.
brandon is a really good dh'er….I'm suprised he didn't race being redbull sponsored and all….
My list was people who didn't even start, not riders who were slower than we thought they'd be.

Seeing those pics makes me realize why so many didn't even start the race. What a horrid day Saturday was.
