Once again its time for the eternal debate...whistler or kiteboard; whistler or kiteboard.

Found this SICK ass video of Brian Lopez going absolutely insanely fast down A-line at whistler.

Gene...look where lopez lands the last A-line triple jump @ 1:22 !!

Just as a reference, this video shows Gene and I on A-line last summer and we are not "slow" by any stretch of the imagination.... Guess it goes to show the difference between world cup DH champion and a pack of weekend warriors.

You can see gene it the same I'm talking about above at 0:24

Let me say this..that last jump that the guy does a backflip on is fucking HUGE. I saw ONE guy hit that thing...just went straight off of it, got about 20' vertical air and about 50' horizontal. ditched his bike and then crumpled on the last 5 feet of the tranny.

Ya, no joke. He goes that far off the small side while scrubbing the jump. I guess we know how long A-line takes now if you're a pro.

Holy shit! That Crankworx run is insane. To throw that many technical and huge tricks back to back...That jump is big, but what about that Monster drop in the middle. That platform was probably like 40ft off the ground.

Insane, all of it. I think either that first video was either sped up a bit or you guys ARE kinda slow. Good stuff, thx
