YouTuber Recreates Red Bull Hardline Course For 'Finger Mountain Biking'

Who knew finger biking was a thing?

It's Friday so we're gonna take a little break from the regularly scheduled bike content and have some fun with it. 

So, apparently, finger biking is a thing. Think tech deck mini skateboards but in bike form. Anyway, Red Bull invited the preeminent finger biker, David Jones, out to Hardline to check out the event and recreate it with finger biking. 

Here is that whole saga. 

Honestly, it seems like a pretty sweet deal to get the trip of a lifetime to see the toughest downhill track in the world to do a finger biking video about it. Whatever David is doing, he is clearly doing it right. 

Hardline Wales - we have to differentiate now on account of Hardline Tasmania starting up this year - was unfortunately canceled on the last day due to weather. Riders were able to hit the track for the week leading up to finals but when it came down to putting times up, the organizers decided to call it. 

Hopefully this year the Welsh "summer" weather is a little more well behaved because it would be great to see that event go off in full.
