It’s been a while since the racing crowd had a chance to go head-to-head against the clock. So, hen Finn Iles joins a cornering session run by Joel Harwood, things get competitive.

Iles heads down the 99 from Whistler to drop in on a basic skills session in Squamish, B.C. There, an all-star cast of many of Canada’s best racers are assembled for a day of practicing cornering. It’s not just the downhillers, either. Enduro, cross country and DH racers are all practicing together in “sunny” Squamish.

Showing that you’re never too fast to practice the basics, the session is all about cone drills.

With so many fast people, including Miranda Miller, Jesse Melamed, Rhys Verner, and Kasper Woolley all riding together, its a great opportunity to learn. When the timing starts, things get competitive.

Watch Iles latest video to see who really has the fastest corners in Canada.
