Four days in the Swiss Alps railing some of the most iconic mountain passes back to back, what a way to end the summer! Unfortunate crash for Taylor on the 10th and final descent.
We filmed most of this wearing the new *PRAY FOR SPEED, PORTAL kit* which is now available to the public: https://safa.link/PFS_Portal_kit

Did he die? Not yet. Not yet.
this is a work of art. that fall looked terrifying. My heart was in my throat for the entire video. The driver who honked you guys when the bus was turning/blocking the road was the jerk in that situation. thank you for making and sharing this.
Excellent visuals and riding as per usual. But one thing i must say, this video is my favourite of yours in terms of the soundtrack and flow from one song to the other.
Better content than all GCN videos combined of this year…
Nice
bro I'm inspired to make a new sport called downhill cycling new breed mix with downhill skateboarding and cycling
Probably scared the f out of the car (and tractor driver) at 19:05 😂
What's the soundtrack between minute 7 and 9?
19:10 omg
酷👍
IF There was a Film on Cycling, SAFA BRAIN would be on Cinematographer. This can be a movie already
Hero 11?
Perfect rides – what wheels and tyre do you use for this kind of descents?
Balls of Steel! 🕺
🔥🔥🔥 wow
bro can you show us your videography setup please
5:40. You lunatic.
Really lovely video! I love to watch you ride while i'm at work just to ease my mind and feel free for awhile
brilliant on every level
Best road bike video I have ever seen in my life
Like Switzerland road and your cycling
That Temola descent with cobble-stones; crazy!
Like your cycling and your daring
💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋 nice job 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
That is insane 🤯
I think it would be cool if Safa made some high speed descent specific kit. Maybe not full leathers like moto kit but something with shoulders and hips that don't burn off. Start a trend of leaving less skin on the asphalt.
4:31 Money.
Great video, but 05:39 was stupid.
Holy Furka that was close @5:44
Incredible.. Bonus footage/outro Music????
i've been riding road bikes, in the mountains, for 30+ years, and i would never ride like that but… This film is a beautiful monster : it's equally beautiful and scary. Bravo. Ride safe…
19:00 🤯 SAFA, this is one of the most complete short films I've ever seen, across any sport. Filming, editing, the pace of it, skill on show, epic soundtrack. Has instant nostalgia like an early 2000s skating film. In awe, mate. Slightly terrifying, totally inspiring 🤘
Какая же красота )
One of the best. Also, thanks for getting me into King Gizzard.
incredible video… 10 out of 10
The scenery and the soundtrack in this one is pure ace! 🔥🙌💕😎
Great Soundtrack!
Whats‘s next? Worden Shjips? Moon Duo?
Man, I went through Omari Jazz's Bandcamp and Soundcloud, and I can't find this tune anywhere. There is a tune called Untitled on his album Addendums but it's not this one. If anyone can help me find the one in this video so I can buy it that'd be amazing 🙏
Amazon 😲 increíble 🤯 a ratos me parecía que estaba en la bici 🚴 y en las curvas cerraba mis manos creyendo que me iba a caer, emocionante a esa velocidad (???) es una locura. Adrenalina pura 😲
fearless🙏
Great content, music, footage, editing.
أللهم صلى وسلم وبارك على نبينا وحبيبنا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم ❤❤❤👍
10:21 counter strike pc game spot on 💯👍
This is so fucking rad. Love the King Gizzard track. Wow, wow, wow!
Danke!
Nice views but you were irresponsible AF around 5:35, giving all cyclists a bad name IMO.
This has to be the most badass and beautiful video in the internet.
I watch it almost every day.
