Remember this? Xavier de le Rue took the most mental line ever down the legendary Bec de Rosses in the 2011 Freeride World Tour. Any of you who’ve seen riders take it on before will know, it’s literally just sheer rock. There’s a fair bit of understandable hesitation before he puts it down on full throttle from about 1.10 onwards. As our contributor Mike said, it’s like doing a maze live – really fast on a 50-degree vert with a high possibility of breaking a limb. Check the heavy double drop at 2.12. This man is another level.
