Damn. That's ehh... not bad.
There is quite a large incentive not to screw up any of those moves.
What always amazes me about those bikes is the wheels. They must lace them triple / quad and really loose or something. They must be massively strong rims.
I have hit pot holes very hard, and blind in races doing 30pmh, and gotten away with it, but, those wheels are taking a serious beating.

That is superb. Bet he had a few dull aches practicing that.

A guy I went to school with was always into MTB. I found out a few months back that he's been touring all over the world, and last I heard, he'd been promoted to the manager or the European M-A-D team (I think anyway).

Check out some more videos here. That stuff has always amazed me, and I've watched a lot over the years.

PS. A couple of scenes in that original video were edited, and edited badly!

EDIT: The guy doing all the tricks (that I can see) in the Mallorca video, is the guy I went to school with.
