Wait do we actually have to take Wyn Masters seriously now? Cause after years of conditioning from his videos I'm not sure I can.

Should have ridden a 39'er

honestly I think it that the rest of the field (especially the loosest riders with mega flow) can reel him in when he can't churn that v12 hes got under the hood.... like a bug diesel stuck in the mud.

chyu (Mar 27, 2017 at 1:02)

You know what they say about american muscle.

Well last man down after the "loose" riders in the mud has its serious disadvantages... Although I do give the advantage to a few others as well. He still placed 1st and 3rd on stages 6 and 7, "How bow sum credit?"

Dethphist (Mar 27, 2017 at 14:33)

Maybe it's that stupid looking helmet of his? It's going to be hard for everyone to look at him with a straight face all season.

whateverbr0 (Mar 27, 2017 at 18:33)

@Dethphist: I heard his helmet kept getting stuck between the trees in tighter sections.

Tippie does beauty interviews! Keeps the stoke level high! YT was sharp on scooping up this old stallion ????????⚔️

teamtoad (Mar 26, 2017 at 19:25)

No doubt. Tippie is definitely the ambassador of stoke!

Zuman (Mar 26, 2017 at 19:38)

Wyn might be the MTB Jesus, His re-writing the the rules and making miracles, won't be surprised if a video surfaces of him riding on top of the puddles and mud,

salespunk (Mar 26, 2017 at 21:52)

Stoked for Wyn and it takes a metric sh!t ton of training and skills to compete at this level and in those conditions. I do doubt that these results will be repeated at any of the subsequent rounds (yes I know that the Masters brothers are not contesting the entire EWS). The tracks were destroyed for the top 20 riders, not to mention what happened on course 1.

I think the overall is going to come down to a few riders, namely Rude, Graves and Hill. Take a look at the results for Stages 6 and 7 once things began to dry out. My early season prediction is Hill taking the overall.

Lookinforit FL (Mar 26, 2017 at 19:52)

Tippie for Chief?

fat-boyfat (Mar 26, 2017 at 17:47)

HE'S BACK!!!!!!

RedBurn (Mar 26, 2017 at 18:06)

Watching Ratboy having fun is so rad

but i thought he stopped taking airplanes, how did he get to NZ ? by feet ?

& Eddie gloveless, usual thug attitude, he killed it !

jyemen FL (Mar 26, 2017 at 18:31)

I wanna party with Wyn

messmyth (Mar 26, 2017 at 20:59)

So does Tippie ride for YT now?

DeLaRosaMTB (Mar 26, 2017 at 21:18)

Yes... was announced in the last week or so.

Maverickdh00 (Mar 26, 2017 at 23:18)

Tippie is YT....

#enduro keeps dishing up tasty races... far more variety on the podiums than dh ... except for Cecile of course...

CrankeeetUp FL (Mar 27, 2017 at 6:26)

Awesome to see the DH riders doing so well - with Tippie as MC, they're all making Enduro very cool

Jackson900 (Mar 26, 2017 at 17:45)

Wait...Wyn....won??? HE'LL YA BUD!

cmcrawfo (Mar 26, 2017 at 18:23)

I love the tip

Chewbiker (Mar 26, 2017 at 21:59)

Wynduro!

WAKIdesigns (Mar 27, 2017 at 6:22)

I just love the fact how Wyn's beard works as a chin guard for Super 3R...

bridgermurray (Mar 26, 2017 at 21:28)

I like how Josh Bryceland is so casual; Wearing a a half-shell, a long sleeve T-Shirt, no gloves, no glasses or googles.

LeoDickson (Mar 27, 2017 at 13:43)

Except rat was wearing glasses. You must be thinking of Eddie, because he fits your description. Maybe if rat wore no knee pads like Eddie he might have been able to keep up.

Brenos (Mar 26, 2017 at 22:17)

....8 hours of being wet!!!

Maverickdh00 (Mar 26, 2017 at 23:16)

Slipery when wet She was wet for 8 hours Wet is wear its at! Get wet or go home!

HackSawyer (Mar 26, 2017 at 22:31)

So stoked for Wyn! Walker and Eddie did alright too. Cool to see some DH riders in the mash, guys and girls.

alaric0108 (Mar 27, 2017 at 3:25)

So Brett Tippie works for YT and he is journalist for Pinkbike ?

JoseBravo (Mar 27, 2017 at 11:18)

Rachel Strait, is kinda weird for me seeing people changing their name. I hope she and Lyle have an awesome year!

el-nombre FL (Mar 27, 2017 at 13:59)

badmotherz (Mar 28, 2017 at 13:38)

GOGRANDE (Mar 26, 2017 at 20:27)

Maverickdh00 (Mar 26, 2017 at 23:17)

The music in the background was quite a pain in the ass tho... but maybe I am too old for this?

baldemarch (Mar 27, 2017 at 10:16)

The racers that actually stand a chance at the championship just needed to survive this race with some points, and they did. Let the locals have their fun for a weekend. In the end it looks like this season is shaping up to be a Richie rude vs Sam Hill battle for the championship. Exciting!

I've tried my best to get into this but I honestly don't know what the hype is about... it's so slow and unintresting. Just a load of guys carefully picking there way down a hill... where's the action?
