Rob Warner Hits Val Di Sole - his 1st DH in years

Rob Warner tells us he hasn't been on a World Cup DH track for 5 years... so we strapped a camera to a borrowed helmet, borrowed Steve Peat's Santa Cruz V10 bike and sent him down the Val Di Sole DH track without even so much as a warm up.

...and here's what he thought of it.

Could this be the start of a comeback?

    Hö...tartteekos sitä ajaa noin kurjissa paikoissa kun nykyjään on niin hyviä pyöräteitäkin. Toikin kuski ihan vallan hengästyy.

    I agree this should be a regular feature - pure genius! Give some feedback on how the different bikes ride too would be sweet!

    Rob ! So awesome to see you on a DH bike man!! Get some fitness going and make riding each downhill course with a helmet cam/commentary part of the broadcast.. would be sick as heck to get your opinion on each run!!

    Love this! Instead of Fox Racing Shox course walks, Rob should do helmet cams with live commentary at every round! entertaining stuff!
