THIS IS AMAZING. Huge round of e-applause to all involved, especially the racers for attending and supporting this first of something GREAT. BRAVO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is a solid start. In New Zealand, we still don't know how the UCI races are even going to be broadcast here. Be nice for this, Crankworks and Hardline to keep Downhill racing with the people! Was awesome to see Erice taking part.
Great to see Lars again! Haven't seen him since Masters Worlds (which he won) in 2002! Still have that Brown Bros. Racing M1 you sold me after that race. Great Champion!
The whole goal here is to grow the US National series for the up and coming wave of Cat 1 juniors to have a platform to build on as they turn Pro (in the coming seasons).
I probably got it wrong but if you're talking about Warren Brothers, they are controlled by Black Rock and Vanguard and the reason everybody has got to pawn a liver to watch mtn bike racing this year. But I heard this from You Tube Academy
I like the format. I think Monster needs to showcase their product a little more. If the strategy is to not shove the product and rely on the name of the race for the advertising purposes, it's a brilliant move and it will work. Viewers will appreciate the focus on the bikes and they will really like your company for its unobtrusive delivery
I think the hardest thing to get right with downhill coverage is the camera angles. Too much camera movement takes away from what the riders are doing in each of these sections. Keep that shit wide, zoomed out, with camera movement to a minimum so that we can see how they tackle the whole thing. You get a much better sense of speed when you can see the whole section without movement from the camera. Shit looks so much better when you can see what they're doing with some perspective and this is pretty damn decent. UCI should be taking notes.
you all killed it with this broadcast! such great racing action, camera angles, lars, griz and will on the mics! way to make #USDH proud!
great footage!! editing and presenting on point, really cool to see what's happening over in the States!!
looking forward to the next 🤙🤙🤙
GREAT coverage. Holy crap this is way better than UCI coverage. Great job to all involved.
I definitely second this. Well done.

I'm growing my hair out after watching this!

I wish the DH world cup would do race recaps like this!! perfect content 🙏🙏🙏
This made my day thanks to all involved god bless US racing.
Awesome job!!
This is unreal, great downhill coverage props to you guys better then UCI can’t wait for the next rounds
This is incredible. I can only imagine this series will grow every year.
Thanks for the racing. Great coverage, keep it up!. Seems like the smell of death is on Discovery World DH!!
We need more Downhill content in the world, this was great!
Coverage was so good! Hats off to everyone involved. The future of USDH is 🔥
Good job in the camera coverage; and the commentary was excellent. Dare I say, some UCI races should take notes! :D
amazing coverage
Post race coverage like this is the future. This was so fun and enjoyable to watch. Looking forwards to more of this format!
Great coverage Monster crew! Really like the 1st split hole shot award, it’s a better addition than a semifinal round. Look forward to next round!
Just to play the Monster's advocate, will there be more crashes there than other parts of the course?
I like the holeshot idea!! congrats
Great coverage, well done!
27:00 richie's so fast he knocked that guy's chair down
Great to see Lars again! Haven't seen him since Masters Worlds (which he won) in 2002! Still have that Brown Bros. Racing M1 you sold me after that race. Great Champion!
Fantastic coverage of this event! well done Monster and all involved. 👏👏
I'm from Brazil and I always follow your content, congratulations on Monster creating a channel just for DH content
What a fun weekend! Clayton and the Team know how to put on a race.
Awesome track
Amazing racing and coverage! Thank you!
Hopefully this continues to grow and Monster can get into creating an international series
The whole goal here is to grow the US National series for the up and coming wave of Cat 1 juniors to have a platform to build on as they turn Pro (in the coming seasons).
Great coverage!
So good, can't wait for round 2!
loving it ! way better than WB ! keep doing the great job
Legendary 💚
Amazing. Thank you Neko from a native North Carolinian.
Great coverage
"positive degradation". Best line I've heard from Chill Will in a long time.
Will is a wordsmith for sure!
Ya like bringing the smoke?! Wonder what that means???
need more of this, thanks Monster for keepin US DH alive!
wow this is what downhill needs!!!😍
Yeehaw! Monster coming in like a champ! I'm loving this.
Better than any WC commentary! Can you guys sign the deal with WBD today please?!
I probably got it wrong but if you're talking about Warren Brothers, they are controlled by Black Rock and Vanguard and the reason everybody has got to pawn a liver to watch mtn bike racing this year. But I heard this from You Tube Academy
🇺🇸 good racing.
Track looks flowfun
Awesome work!!!!
Full Stak Dak looking smooooth
26:58 watch the guy with the red pullover 😀
Wow Kailey Skelton was on a heater before the crash! She had the holeshot and 1st place in the bag, hope she is OK!
I’ve seen soooo many people wad it over that finish line jump.. hell I’ve done it myself.
Amazing coverage!
Hell yea, been waiting for this all week!
Well, this is worth the wait, amazing visuals keep it up
Great round 1
Fantastic coverage and production value 👌
great job on the coverage!
richie's draft knocked that dude right over at 27:01
Glad someone else saw that!
Hahaha what a spot
good camera shot!!
damn u guys did an incredible job with this one! this is how race coverage should be done.
great coverage! very very nice
I’m racing there next year
Loving it Monster...
UCI should hire you guys instead! Great coverage.
Dude Lars Tribus is a legend.
Hell yes!
Can we get the rest of the footage of that guy falling off his chair during Richie’s run? 26:56
I think we can make that happen 😉
USDH💪
This is great!

Dang Kailey was hauling, hope she is Ok!
No need to pay this year😊
Dak attack!!
Ouch, I hope that girl that stacked the last jump is ok… ouch!
Idk how these guys ride that moon dust shit so fast.. I’m awful in those conditions. Much prefer wet/slick to dry/slick.
Amazing
Wow, I also want to ride a downhill bike in a cool place like this~~ I hope I grow up quickly~~~~❤❤❤❤❤❤
Shout out to all amazing🚴 Kailey Skelton fast furious and amazing hope she's ok🙏🚴🤙💪
VERY GOOD

First to last in one jump….rough
Insane run from her !
Is there a reason they blow a whistle at points in the run?
Course marshals indicating a rider has passed their position.
oh yeah
Tristan is amazing
poor Kailey at 14:00 min she overshot that last jump she was 4 seconds faster than everyone...great coverage by Monster much better than Redbull
📡🛰️📡🛰️📡🛰️📡🛰️📡🛰️
Cool series, but my god the most soul sucking commentators I've ever heard. Glad I muted it after a couple of runs
Excellent coverage. Thanks for doing this and I hope this grows because that was an awesome production!
