Description
Another victory for Ratboy and Emmeline Ragot claws her way back to the top, too. The tight racing at the Windham World Cup was nothing short of incredible. Sven Martin and Duncan Philpott captured the high-speed action and stories from the only World Cup downhill in the U.S. Enjoy the chaos!
