No doubt. So many people never saw Gwinny back in the 00s and early 2010s and it makes me feel fortunate I saw all that evolution as it happened. I still think of those 'old days' as the penultimate of World Cup downhill. Having Hill, Peaty, Minnaar (on Honda), Matti, Sick Mick, Gwin, Brendog, Cedric, Fabian, all on the hill. Sheesh. Party hard the night before and shred the race in the morning. Good times.
@@Polemicist_ I was just going to say, sometimes going really fast looks slow; like Bruni’s winning run at Ft. Williams recently. He just didn’t look fast, but beat everyone by over 2 seconds! Sometimes sketchy is fast, and sometimes it’s the opposite; depends on the rider and on the course.
It's so good to see Gwin in the top 5 at this race, and good to see him and Dakota making some waves. It would be awesome to see some American racers making a difference again on the WC circuit. I was on pins and needles watching both of their runs. Go team INTENSE!!
Seems like there's not much middle ground on Gwin: Hardcore fans either love him or strongly dislike him. As for me, I'm happy to have him back to full health and showing the younger riders why he's a legend.
Good to see the Wizard on Pace.. Once he's Feeling it hope he ties Greg just to see a old Dawg Fight while there both still showing up with 🔥 runs on the young guns 🔫
This is a perfect example of Flow, and Experience, coalescing in the moment... each moment is a perfect compound of these essential things that you will only have if you do it
Man Gwin never ceases to amaze me. I remember the old days of Gwin vs Chainsaw Steve Smith, racing at its absolute finest. Of course the chainless run is legendary, there was even a no rear tire run in 2014!
His chain-less winning run will forever live in MTB Legend.

Big Facts! I don't think we'll ever see a run like that again
@@shirothehero0609don't forget ratboy
I was about to ask if he was the same guy. I remember that video. INSANE!
The way they come into that bridge section though
Would be such a spectacular crash
pure madness!
@@flawless7019 saw a clip of a kid crashing off it and it was awful. Very poorly designed feature
@@jameyboland737 gotta risk it for the biscuit
I know what would happen to me wash the front out spend the next two months in a full body cast 🤣
"if you're in control, you're not going fast enough"
* *Loic Bruni's body positioning has entered the chat*
As a mountain biker myself, I've had my best laugh of the week reading your comment!
Very true, if you aren't scared you ain't going fast enough.

Yes sir, whatever your level, crash once hard and 'almost' 5 other times on a ride.
That moment he nearly hit a rock in his cornering gave me goosebumps
Yup same thought
Nada melhor que piloto bem treinando!.👏👏👏👏🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
Love these commentators so excited 😂
going to miss them next year
Wow wow wow! 😂
@@downhilljedi wait what!? they are changing them?
They truly have passion for the sport, which you can hear. So awesome these guys

Go Aaron. That speed with a perfect run and you’re there.
Snowshoe let's go!
Outrageously dangerous, no margin for error at this speed. Sick skills
100% agree
The commentary was spot on
No
Great to see him pushing for the top again! Such a dedicated athlete.
As long there's a chain running on his bike, Gwin is " only" going for 95 % risk🤣😁👍🙄
Reminds me of Franz Klammer in '76 winter Olympics. Going for broke.
Man he going hard on that damn bike 🚬🔥 Ride hard bro 💪🏽
The way he navigated that boulder was epic
awesome to see Gwin back on the mix!!!
I bet he would be faster without a chain.
@BuddyHandsome what?
@BuddyHandsome what
@BuddyHandsome wut
Lol i understand 👍🏻 🤣
'scuse me?
Nobody can corner like Gwin! Legend deserves a run like this!
I absolutely love watching Gwinn race. Absolute animal on the bike.
these stuntmen better have some damn good health benefits

Why the hate?
I've never really heard of people who "strongly dislike him". He seems to me to be a guy that's hard to dislike.
@@TheyForcedMyHandLE Still dont understand the dislike, did he do something to someone?
So smooth it’s like he is riding on flat pavement!
とんでもなく速いのに、あまりに滑らかで安定した体捌きなのほんと凄い
Representing Cali baby let’s go 💪🏻
He lives in tennessee now.
I love Aaron Gwin he’s what inspired me to continue mountain biking and get good at it and has been on my wall for the past 5 years
Omg he's 34? I feel so inadequate now. I have no excuses for mediocrity
Alexander conquered the world at 32.
get a mtb. there are trails/parks out there
Good to see the Wizard on Pace.. Once he's Feeling it hope he ties Greg just to see a old Dawg Fight while there both still showing up with 🔥 runs on the young guns 🔫
This guy is so focused and dedicated.. is amazing how he and the downhill bike are insync.
That was breathtaking. Amazing!!
Way to go, Gwin. 👏 That was a great run. 💯 You inspire us all. Keep shredding. 🚴♀️🚴♀️🚴♀️
Glad so see him back on the podium, what a LEGEND!! 💥💥🙌
one BAMF on a bike ...
BRAVO Gwinnie we were on our feet and Hollerin' as usual watchin ya!!
#kickass
Rob always cracks me up xD. Sick run.
I love this guy! Mad props to you sir! Race because you love it not because you have to! 👍🤙
The absolute commitment. That's what you call a full send.
This is a perfect example of Flow, and Experience, coalescing in the moment... each moment is a perfect compound of these essential things that you will only have if you do it
LETS GOO AARON!
Holy. Cow. That’s insane 😮
Miss his days.Awesome.
Man Gwin never ceases to amaze me. I remember the old days of Gwin vs Chainsaw Steve Smith, racing at its absolute finest. Of course the chainless run is legendary, there was even a no rear tire run in 2014!

Savage DH riding mad props brother happy trails
You're the legend
It’s hard to believe that I’ve met someone with such iconic races like this one and the chainless one.
Favorite racer, I got to ride with him in cali and he’s a super chill dude!
You could compete in downhill, if you are not a chilled. :D
That was so pow-in-the-gut awesome! Hello from Cincinnati.
Man was all gas no break!...lol
Never say never!!! Never give in!! 34 ain't old!!
Do Not Underestimate the HEART of a Champion!!! Lets go Gwin!!!
He's back 👍😁👌 oh yes
Good for him very happy for this guy
Yo this run is giving me pure goosebumps!
He was out!! I enjoyed this
Ça se voit qu'il a confiance en son vélo. C'est beau ❤
Rode with Gwinny back in 2010 in bootleg canyon. Quiet. Reserved and a frickin monster.
Amazing run with a great combination of tech and flow!!
Unbelievable corner speeds!!! Great run🤙
Wow only just started watching this channel and I’m blown away
Un tío con triple h. Que valor, que coraje.
These commentators are something else, i love it
DOWHILL É UMA ARTE DA BICICLETA!!!!! É TÃO LINDO!!!!!!
Wow that was amazing I can’t even imagine the excitement at the end of that race!! Good job
That guy is insane!!! 😮😮😮
Whoah, the way he dodged that Rock, it was sooo close
Thought Ozzy man was speaking
He just tore it up p👑
Love Aaron Gwin. We need more mammoth boys

Respect to him !!!!!!!!!!!!!
A-f^cking-mazing…. Point bank!!!
Insane Dude💪👌

I love listening to Claudio!
Pretty good for a Ginger.
Dude is awesome. I would love to see a win.
“Racers don’t worry about the past, they fix their present mistakes, worry about the next turn in the future”
wow. unlike other sh#t on youtube shorts this is incredible. humans can do amazing things, this dude is a legend.
Wow awesome amazing fantastic
Terrifying, truly awesome
This dude commits. It almost looked like the bike was ghost riding. I swear at least one of the huge rocks jumped out of his way.
😂na sometimes, we all out of control..
“Stay on your bike Danny!”
“How does he sit down with balls that big!”
How I miss these two, nowadays it feels like I'm watching a football match in some cup!
Gwin is such a monster!!!
Legend ❤ 💪🤟
this is awesome! 👌
The Goat
Wow ...👊😃I'm impressed
his time was so fast that it was able to fit in a short video
L’ets go Aaron Gwin!
No doubt LEGEND ⚡
He is so so so so good
