 The only non-shitty thing to ever come out of Texas, Pan-fuckin-tera!
  • 8 1
 In addition to Dime, you forgot about Stevie Ray, Johnny Winter, ZZ, Eric Johnson, lots of good guitar came out of Texas. Also Chuck Norris.
  • 2 1
 chuck norris is nothing to brag about
  • 1 0
 never been there but Texas statistically dominates the Miss America pageant, so I assume there are some attractive ladies milling about; though perhaps Chuck Norris has slept with them all
  • 28 1
 Man they just let anyone enter these races huh

 Actually this race was sanctioned by the UCI: Unos Cabrones Imbeciles.

 man these south american riders have some proper balls, theirs something impresive about watching dudes riding down sketchy ass courses on some sketchy bikes attempting some questionable jumps and then proceeding to crash mighty hard. RESPECT

 You know the crashes will be serious when there's heavy metal on a 420p video
  • 23 2
 Carnage and PANTERA...f$ck yeah.
  • 7 0
 Yeah should've looked at the comments, don't think the school library appreciated the loud burst of pantera at the beginning
  • 20 3
 PANTERA!! I still have this cassette.

 It's nice to watch a bunch of non-pros on video sometimes. To remind myself that I'm not that bad of a rider... Wink

 Pantera.. you are god damn right. Whoever picked this knows what's up. Only suggestion.. Primal Concrete Sledge may have been more appropriate.. with the name and all! I miss the days of metal in videos! Best Soundtrack to a video.. Nowhere Fast.

 How many of these riders are beginners with titanium nuts. Love it..
  • 13 1
 suitable music \m/

 That drop onto an off-camber decline... kind of shitty

 Seems like a cruel trick, who could even ride that out! Props to everyone who went for it!

 would be easier if they jumped it as a transfer, landing with the bike pointing down

 Yeah and it was some cobblestone/brick material with no traction, with an abrupt transition.

 Agree, I think id rather fall off in a rock garden than on stairs
  • 7 3
 Seems like most of these riders don't have enough experience to safely race this track. The hard tails with massive forks says it all

 LOL "omg its like too gnarly and like too much carnage. this should never be displayed on a MTB website! the travesty! even though i'm pretty sure i just watched a guy break his neck, I'm like completely disgusted they showed a kid hitting a 10ft. jump with no helmet on!"

Welcome to MTBing, not everyone throws steezy whips and stomps every line. People crash and its fun to watch... for the most part.

 I feel bad for anyone on that course with a carbon bike. Imagine the pain you would feel watching it slide and tumble down concrete stairs.

 Sorry could not watch the whole clip, total nuts how long before people die doing this?

 Agreed. Urban DH looks great until you see these crashes really. Catch a kerbstone wrong or come up short on a gap and it could easily be all over.
  • 1 0
 Are you saying the same doesn't apply when out on the forest etc??
  • 2 0
 I WOULD say this is more dangerous that riding alone in the forest, but the danger of forest riding is could be days before you get found
