Video: Wyn Masters privateer project with Taylor Vernon
Sometimes it's easy to get swept up in the excitement of downhill racing. In reality, life as a racer comes with many highs and lows. Life as a privateer brings its own challenges, something Wyn Masters knows all too well. That said, thanks to his privateer project he's giving back and supporting riders who need it.
In this episode, Wyn reveals what happened in Lenzerheide, despite not having any memory of his crash. Out for the next few races, he turns his focus to recovery and everything else he does around racing full-time.
One of the privateers getting support from Wyn is Taylor Vernon. At 26, he's no stranger to the downhill circuit. A few years ago he had full factory support, now he's balancing being a dad, working full-time and training to race. Hoping to have one last shot at doing this professionally, we find out what the privateer project means to him, as well as his Dad, Jason, his number one supporter.
