Nicely shot film with great scenery, but I'd have liked to have seen more of the steeper, tighter, rougher stuff in and around Verbier. Valon D'arby filmed from a chopper would be mint.

Given your non biking thrill seeing I cannot believe you've not been there before.

Nice trailer.

PS I'm not a FB stalker really .... 🙂

Your profile picture just encourages further investigation. I love the mountains but am afraid of exposed faces and heights so vicariously enjoyed your photos !

I did a PPdS event, Verbier, Zermatt mini tour for my first Alps riding trip, easy to do and I know now I only scratched the surface.

To get to be able to ride that fast, do you need to be ok with falling a lot?
They look so comfortable at that speed, but surely if something does go wrong, it's always going to end in massive season-ending crashes.

(I'm still wincing from some of the rocky faceplants from Windham)

3:18 look vaguely like a trail I rode in Visp a couple of weeks ago but it also looks like many other trails I've ridden in Switzerland.

I get to ride stuff like this every weekend and it blows my mind. Switzerland is a truely awesome place for biking.
