Almost thought we were looking at a painting with this one.
If your Friday didn’t end with a dirt booter and a backflip, Robin’s not interested.

Video of the Day
Nothing blew our tops off today so we’re giving you some throwbacks!
Agassiz threads his home lines with the kind of swagger usually reserved for outlaw movie stunts and skatepark locals who never moved out.
Big hits, no apologies, and a bike that looks like it was designed to offend your warranty department.
⏰ Watch time - 03 min 16 sec
Bonus: This RAW 100 doesn’t come with a soundtrack because the bike is the instrument, and it’s playing death metal.
One hundred seconds of tire slap, brake squeal, and Semenuk absolutely disrespecting terrain.
You can hear every decision being made in real-time, most of them reckless, all of them right.
Haven’t seen this yet? You just struck internet gold my friend.

Send of the Day
The run-up was clean, the send was confident, and the landing was a human yard sale broadcast in glorious HD.

All Eyes on Andorra: A Record, a Legacy, and a Wild Weekend Ahead at the DH World Cup
The mountain bike world is turning its focus to the rugged Pyrenees this weekend for one of the most iconic stops on the calendar: the Andorra Downhill World Cup.
The high-altitude venue of Vallnord is steeped in World Cup history, delivers consistently unpredictable results, and this year, it’s more loaded than ever with storylines.
Andorra has been a World Cup favorite since its debut in 2008.
Nestled between France and Spain, this tiny mountain nation packs a serious punch in the downhill world thanks to its unforgiving terrain, sudden weather changes, and steep, technical courses that test every ounce of a rider’s control and courage.
From Sam Hill’s early dominance to the chaos of rain-soaked finals that reshuffled podiums, Andorra has built a reputation for drama.
It’s not just another stop, it’s where riders either ascend into legend or get sent packing by the mountain.
For Commencal, Andorra isn’t just another race. It’s the race.
The brand is headquartered in the heart of Vallnord, and their presence is felt everywhere, from fan tents to pit row to the boards lining the course.
This is their backyard, their proving ground, and their party all wrapped into one.
Riders like Amaury Pierron, Myriam Nicole, and Thibaut Daprela have all delivered unforgettable performances under the Commencal banner here.
And with their team in top form and racing on home turf, expect them to throw down with a little extra fire.
Then there’s the biggest headline of the weekend: Jackson Goldstone is one win away from making history.
WBD Sports / WHOOP UCI Mountain Bike World Series / Red Bull Content Pool
The Canadian phenom has already strung together four consecutive World Cup downhill wins this season, something that hasn’t been done since Danny Hart’s streak in 2016.
But no one, not even Sam Hill, Greg Minnaar, or Aaron Gwin, has ever won five in a row in a single season.
If Jackson stands on the top step again this weekend, he’ll hold the record for the most consecutive men’s DH World Cup wins EVER.
At just 20 years old, he’s already rewriting the history books.
And doing it in Andorra, a track known for breaking dreams more than making them, would make the achievement even more legendary.
Other Names to Watch:
- Loïc Bruni, the reigning World Champion, is always a threat and has unfinished business here.
- Vali Höll, fresh off another dominant performance, looks nearly unbeatable in the women’s field but will have stiff competition from Marine Cabirou and Nina Hoffmann.
- Myriam Nicole, who’s from nearby Montpellier and a long-time Commencal rider, could electrify the weekend with a return to the top if she’s back to full speed.
Andorra’s track is known for brutal rock sections, high-speed gaps, and the infamous lower woods that turn into a slip-and-slide with even the slightest drizzle.
Add the thinner air at elevation, and you’ve got one of the most physically demanding tracks of the year.
Weather forecasts are calling for afternoon storms, which could throw a wrench into qualifying and finals as they often do here.
Don’t be surprised if we see upsets, heartbreaks, or breakout rides from lesser-known riders willing to risk it all.
Whether you’re tuning in to see if Jackson makes history, watching the Commencal crew ride like they own the place, or just love the chaos of a classic Andorra shootout, this is one weekend you don’t want to miss.

Dream Rides ❤️
Whoever built this Intense M1 definitely yelled “build kit matters!” and then emptied a credit card at their local bike shop.
Gravity-ready, and meaner than your high school gym teacher.

Trail of the Day
Boot Camp Mountain Biking Trail - Winter Park, Colorado
Imagine a trail designed by someone who binge-watched surf edits and thought, “What if tires did that?”
Now add small tables you overshoot on purpose, berms you carve like Thanksgiving dinner, and wallrides that’ll fix your posture and destroy your ego.
It’s flowy in the way rivers are, fast, winding, and sometimes unexpectedly violent.
This is the toll road to Beall UcanB, and it doesn’t take exact change.
Pedal in clean or don’t come at all.
That’s all for this week folks. We hope everyone gets some saddle time out there. See you all next week! 🤙
