 Really liked CRC vid. Getting ready for the 'hunt' is such an important part of any DH race, the waiting at the top of the hill prior to their run is side of a rider we rarely see.

 Well, overall great video's.

One little comment though.. Why would CRC/NukeProof show their rider acting up after a race ? That is just.... Distasteful. I mean, sure, you're pro, and you expect yourself to do extremely well, but why go off the track with, what I'm assuming is cursing and an attitude that tells people that you're a poor loser ? That is just stupid, I would boot a rider from my team if they ever did that.

Annnnnnnddddddd the Neg. props roll in.... now.

 its got absolutely nothing to do with what type of bike you ride.....its simply about common courtesy.
How sick to they think they are that they can just go charging through the finish exit area and almost smash those girls who are tryin to stop them to get whatever info they need from them so the day runs smoothly.....fair enough that your pissed about your race run cause you had a crash or whatever, but its your own fault....so deal with it!

 Savmeister- it really has nothing to do with what sport your in. I see douchebags like him EVERY race I go to. I see them in NASCAR, F-1, BTCC, ETCC, etc.

I also race downhill, and 4x, so, I do know a bit on why he would be pissed off. Just because BMX is my main sport doesn't mean I don't know anything.

Example- Jared Graves last year in the World Championship. Didn't get first, he was extremely pissed off. He just hung his head and let things happen. He was the definition of sportsmanlike at that moment. So how about you stop being butthurt ? Aight ?

 Yeah the CRC Nukeproof vid is the best ive seen in a long while. It a bit more of the reality of what its really like I reckon and shows how damn hard it is to get in the the top 20.

 Good to see something other than the freecaster tv cameras - they make everything look so flat and boring its hard to believe the pictures were taken at the same race.
