Shawn,
Do you have any scoop for us on where DIALED is? We usually have a video right before the start of the season with them traveling. NADA so far. I don't think we can go without Jordi, Jake, Shaffer, and the crew this season. Please help us resolve this issue. I sent a message to Jordi on FB. Hopefully he can shed some light. IT IS A HUGE LOSS if there isn't a season of DIALED.
All the best,
BostonDon
It's done Confirmed (via DM) w/ Jordi and Schaffer
Wow, that is a BALL CRUSHER. What they put together was amazing and certainly a highlight on the downhill season. This hurts. This is a subscription I would pay for.
RIP DIALED
NOOOOOO!
Dialed and Vital Raw are the 2 best things about a WCDH weekend, very sad to see it go.
I assumed it was on the chopping block for '24 with all of Fox's fire-sales and talk of them of running low on liquid cash. Maybe it returns next year. Let's hope.
Hey, at least we have mismatched gold forks....
I'm devastated. One of my favourite parts of the season. Was thinking something was up when there was nothing today after track walk so I started searching for info. That's just plain ruined my Friday night and the season won't be the same....
No Dialled? No vital RAW? Fuck everything
Wait no RAW?
Thats a bummer to hear about Dialed going away. I’ve learned a lot from that series :-(
DAMN. After the race itself, that was the highlight of racing weekends for me! Hopefully they come back next year.
Dialed and RAW were the 2 biggest draws for me other than the racing itself. Hopefully they can bring it back.
A major loss, for sure. Their editing and music were next level - really added texture and mood to their already epic content. Glad that Sleeper Collective have really stepped up to fill the void. But best of luck to Jake and Shaeffer on their future endeavours!
RAW is not gone. First one is on homepage
Replacing all of those 21-23 X2s must've been expensive.
Damn. This was a main way I kept up with last seasons WCDH. Real bummer.
To be frank, months of watching Dialed surely influenced my suspension preferences. I feel much more positively about Fox than I did several years ago. Guess they won’t be front and center for my attention this year.
RIP, will be missed.
Will not miss calling it "qualifiers".
Another gutted Dialed fan here, but I guess it wasn't cheap to produce and if times are tight at Fox then it's an easy thing to cut.
The kicker is that Dialed is right at the top of the Fox Bike homepage, just with no new content!
This sucks so bad, admittedly last season wasn't the best ith what seemed like a lot of riders not wanting to participate or not being filmed it was very Nina and Tahnee heavy. Oh well maybe we can petition for Rockshox to take over
Video series like that can get stale and loose interest as time goes on, could have been that the results did not justify the expense, it is disappointing to not see it replaced with something else.
DAMMMIT. on one hand .. .STOKED to land a new 38 last fall for half price...even if it did eat a giant dick within 2 miles of STREET riding FFS and have to go back immediately for repairs... but....NO DIALED..? HUGE dissappointment. last weekend starting on THur was just not he same without a lil Jordi Schaeffer and the Fox team grinding thru all those suspension parts and tuning sessions ...
I became a HUGE fan of these installments the last 4 years, it had been literally one of THE highlights of the available video coverage of these race weekends.
Praying if there is a worth while WC series next year things settle down and THE SERIES ( talking to YOU, UCI and DISCOVERY) does a MUCH better job of helping the MFG's who support the series as they have been for years to properly plan and BUDGET for the upcoming season properly and lock down the critical details they need early enough so they can.... All this chaos and the bullshit that has been the DISCOVERY led management of these events has been a fucking night mare to hear about. and I can't blame FOx or any oen for cuttign back when faces with so many HUGE unknowns way late in the off season..
I pray they bring it back for '25, but I fear the video boys will find new gigs elsewhere and I was really enjoying their production quality, style, and the end product. I prob watched each one 2x over a weekend as i usually am doing too many things at once the 1st run and pay a bit more attn to the 2nd play.
WELL DONE YOU GUYS! BEST OF LUCK!
No dialed... sucks. I thought it was the best behind the scenes on the circuit, for what it was. Different and more raw than the between the tape stuff.
As for viewership, it was still doing well, you can see # of streams on the youtube. But the most watched last season was quite as high as some years prior:

I'd imagine the problems of the whole bike industry played mostly in the role of this going away.
I hope it comes back.
Definitely.
When the preodominant feeling every episode of your work as its ending is "awe man, its over?"... thats a good sign.
and now we get no real EWS coverage either ... WTF already UCI/Discovery..?
