    WTF Is a Chinese Downhill?

    Monster is putting on a foreal Chinese Downhill at Fernie. 3500' vert, $20G winner takes all. Should be some good entertainment.

    $20k will bring out some talent. Unfortunately not this talent.

    Racing after 4pm could have some seriously variable conditions?

    26 pros, semi pros and pro dirtbags will make a chinese downhill.

    Ya, too bad they're not running the main event in the sunshine. Will most definitely be refrozen crud and moguls. Its gonna be a show.

    That's a downhill made on the cheap with slave labor, crapola parts and lead paint. Downhills used to be pretty good when they were made in America but now, all the imported downhills you can find at Walmart ain't worth a shit.
