AS CHOSEN BY... VALI HÖLL, DOWNHILL RACER

Vali Höll is arguably the best new talent in mountain biking. Prodigously talented, she’s already won the downhill junior World Cup and World Championships and signed for Red Bull. As you read this, the Austrian will have belatedly started her first season as an elite... don’t bet against her bagging a podium place

We are dropping in... or are we? 2020 was, and still is, such a weird year. I recently went on a production shoot with YT Industries – I would never have dreamt that the last time wearing my junior world champ’s jersey would be during a shoot at home. This picture more or less sums up the year so far… no matter how hard you look, you can’t really see where you are heading. A year of uncertainty, but also hope.

100% GLENDALE GLASSES

100% GLENDALE GLASSES

When it comes to eyewear, having a large lens not only offers a lot more protection from trail splatter, it puts the frames further out from your field of view, allowing you to focus on the terrain in front of you. The Glendale is absolutely vast, and actually has a lens size akin to a full downhill goggle, so you literally can’t see the top or sides of the frame.

DMR STAGE 2 MTB RAIL SADDLE

DMR's new Stage 2 MTB Rail is one of those new/old products. The shape and construction are identical to the existing Oi Oi saddle, but the company has wrapped it in a new skin and added some harder-wearing reinforcement to the edges. It's also toned down the lairy graphics; this saddle only comes in plain black.
