I lost count of all my extreme sports injuries - mountain biking, whitewater kayaking, rock climbing, downhill skiing, and karate - they all have risks. Fear makes you focus, and overcoming your fear makes the beer taste better!
"Whether I make it or not, I will die!". Had to laugh at that comment. Yuka, you and Eric have proven you are not average riders. Nothing wrong with acknowledging the incredible riding skills you have gained over the years. If you both aren't willing to give yourselves credit, you have plenty of viewers/supporters who are more than happy to give credit where it is due! Many of us live vicariously through the two of you, with some of the locations you are fortunate enough to ride and always enjoy seeing you crush another challenge! Stay awesome!
@@VanGirlYuka Essentially you can start from the base of the cliff if you sprint, but the best line is to come from the top, brake all the way down the cliffs, and let it go. The gap was built by a bunch of Rampage guys and build teams working together, so it's a very well made jump. It can be scary though!
loving your videos yuka. keeping me sane while I'm stuck inside in the snow. I just got into riding about 6 months ago and it is fully taking over my life; I'm working on moving to a place with better trails soon haha
West coast BC is a great place to live just it’s wet through winter to spring…here in Arizona it’s great in winter but too hot in summer 😵💫 hard to decide where to live…
The Bay Area is probably a good place to ride now Feb 10 2022. It's been dry since the beginning of the year. Start in Santa Rosa and Napa and hook up with BkXc and B1ker and hit everything In the area while the weather is good.
Your general attitude is what makes your videos so great! You should come and visit South Africa. Far away but you will love the people, the country and the trails.
You guys should ride in Cedar City, Utah about 50 miles north of St. George, Utah. There are some really awesome downhill flow and jumplines in the Iron Hills Trail System.
Southern Utah was my back yard growing up... great to see you ridding those trails. If you are in northern Utah when it's not muddy, hit Corner Canyon in Draper. Not a huge riding area, but a lot of fun.
I’d love to do those multi day bike packing! Organizing food and water supplies is the problem. I think there is no river or lake we can get water from on the way…
@@VanGirlYuka Yeah that can be tricky when in the desert. I know some people stash water caches along the route using their car before heading out with the bikes.
Road for 13 years with not many scratches just an XC rider not into the jumps riding one 5 AM morning in Southlake Tahoe fell down and broke my arm such a shame only real mountain biking accident or injury
Hey Yuka. I know u wont do it but you can maybe ride in winterberg germany. I dont expect you to do it because it is in germany and germany is really far from you. So yeah
🤔 I somehow missed it in the past: when did you stop wearing your neck brace? Asking bc I am thinking about buying one soon together with a full face helmet.
Should show more footage of the barrel trail. Just rode it. It’s a fun one. Curious if you two hit the big drop on then trail? Need motivation to hit it lol.
A saying by Abe Lincoln occurred to me as I watched this video--- " It is not a wise thing to rein in your horse halfway into the jump." He was speaking about politics, but....

Well, you two aren't exactly the kind of "average" riders by our standards here Beginners struggle on or enjoy green trails, average riders struggle, enjoy or master blue trails, very good riders deal with black trails and rather few ride double-blacks...
I have a question that has been burning my brain. When you are sponsored and your sponsor sends you a bike or other equipment , do you get to keep it ?
I think depending on the contractions. In out case, we kept it but they might want you to send it back. So you should make it clear before getting one😊
Honestly, insulting that you think you and Eric are "average". Stop sandbagging yourself. I see you hitting jumps larger than most women in the Cranxwork series. I would love to see you start learning some tricks!!
Yuka is not an average rider. You’re a badass rider. That’s what you are!
Ok. You beat me to it. Yuka is not AVERAGE. I am average, and no way I'm even considering any of the stuff she does.
I lost count of all my extreme sports injuries - mountain biking, whitewater kayaking, rock climbing, downhill skiing, and karate - they all have risks. Fear makes you focus, and overcoming your fear makes the beer taste better!
I hope you had fun at Hawes yesterday Yuka. It was surreal seeing you there!
It was nice talking to you too😘
I love the focus! It’s relaxing to me because it takes all my attention and the things that preoccupy me off-trail just fall away for a couple hours.

lol. my wife say's something similar. If I die, I die. As long as she gets to hit the feature I guess.
@@dukeofmtb All about the priorities!
@@d-nicebikes lol. Yup.
That canyon gap is awesome and really fun to hit. Honestly the hardest part is the rather... *steep* run in...
Have you hit it? I bet once you go down the hill there is no way you can stop so you have to hit it, huh? No panic brake🤣

Reg is a legend. So much respect for him, and what he does out in Alberta.
Yuka, you are both hilarious and inspirational. Great vid.

I'll bet that was a fantastic walk round seeing all the crazy spots... Well done on hitting one

"my guinea pigs seems okay" haha
Awesome vid. Yuka the Bronson seems be serving you well💪🏽
My Bronson is awesome ✨
Your general attitude is what makes your videos so great! You should come and visit South Africa. Far away but you will love the people, the country and the trails.
We’ll go to South Africa for sure! We’d love to bring our van❤️
When you come back to southern Utah stop in Richfield because late summer this year or next year we should have a 18 mile dh trail finished
Wow that’d be awesome ✨
Love your content Yuka and Eric. Keep em coming. Keep riding 🤙🍻✔️🏆
You guys should ride in Cedar City, Utah about 50 miles north of St. George, Utah. There are some really awesome downhill flow and jumplines in the Iron Hills Trail System.
We wanted to ride there and we actually drove up but there was still snow on the mountains 🥲
Never been there but would love to check it out. Love watching them ride there every year.
Sending much respect fromTexas. We love your channel. Domo arigato for all the great vids.
Greatings from Holland 🤞😎✅
One of my faves is Guacamole. Have fun, such a fun place to ride!
We missed it! Next time😉
Southern Utah was my back yard growing up... great to see you ridding those trails. If you are in northern Utah when it's not muddy, hit Corner Canyon in Draper. Not a huge riding area, but a lot of fun.
We were too late for riding in northern Utah🥲 next time! We must spend summer around there and Colorado✨
"today I am riding with annette, who almost died" lmaoooo amazing
She is a tough rider!
While in Utah, I would suggest taking a whole day just ride some XC trails and experience the beautiful nature. For example the White Rim Trail.
I’d love to do those multi day bike packing! Organizing food and water supplies is the problem. I think there is no river or lake we can get water from on the way…
@@VanGirlYuka Yeah that can be tricky when in the desert. I know some people stash water caches along the route using their car before heading out with the bikes.
I'd love to see you and Eric go mt. biking in Japan!
Oh there’s a snake ooh!! 😲😭😂😂
Blown-up kidney case? Near death? Nice! I broke a liver myself, almost died too! Cheers to Annette ;)
Wow! How did you do that?
Where you should ride next? Come to visit Europe in summer and meet some subscribers.
I’d love to! Maybe in 2 years🤔?
you should come to Nepal and ride in the mountains it is one of the best place for Mountain Biking
I’d loooooooove to do that🤩
That was fun to watch!
Thank you for watching 😁
Nice riding Yuka 🤘
Yay, I commented on your last video to send rampage trails and you did.😁😁😁
That’s right! Thank you for the comment😁 next time we can do more!…hopefully!
Ha, ha, ha - this was awesome!
I think you should come to San Luis Obispo to ride! BKXC came here once too! The trails have amazing flow and great ocean views.
I think we’ve ridden there and it was beautiful ✨ there are so many trails we haven’t done yet so excited to go back 😁
Ride Beacon Hill in Spokane Washington. Awesome flow and tech!
Love your dry humor. ‘This is eric, he has no world records”
Yay😁
Beautiful location to ride. Kind of crusty. Jumps - big or small - count 'em all. Remember - Take-offs are optional - Landings are mandatory.
wow Yuka, that was sick! Come to Sedona next :) we can be twins on the new Bronson!
Road for 13 years with not many scratches just an XC rider not into the jumps riding one 5 AM morning in Southlake Tahoe fell down and broke my arm such a shame only real mountain biking accident or injury
Very cool Vid! 🤘
Yuka, you're so funny 6:25!
Yuka, you are my hereto. I love your mental toughness and adventurous spirit.
Good job
You're definitely are an above average rider. That stuff is crazy!
Come to Seattle!
Great content!
いきなり肝臓が破裂した人のインタビューでビビらせてくるスタイル
Interesting video 🤘🔥 Good work 👍
Very interesting terrains out there! Most of the trails are XC style with punchy climbs but that makes us strong rider, right?
let’s send Eric first 🤣
Good stuff! What chest mount with a gimball is that?
I like living too. But I also like adventure.🤘
We need a little excitement I guess😁
You and Eric would be "Advanced" riders Yuka. Waay better than average.
Hey Yuka. I know u wont do it but you can maybe ride in winterberg germany. I dont expect you to do it because it is in germany and germany is really far from you. So yeah
I’d love to go to Germany! Not only Germany, we want to go around Europe ✨ can’t wait 😁
ランページは景色もスケールも現実離れしてますね〜！
実際に来てみるとその凄さがわかります。イベントもテレビではなくて実際に見てみたいですね🤩
Haha. Jeebas eff. This is gonna be good. My answer.... "That is gonna be a "No" from me Dawg....".
if you wanna live in a cave go to coober pedy in australia
It's too hot there🔥but looks nice...
🤔 I somehow missed it in the past: when did you stop wearing your neck brace? Asking bc I am thinking about buying one soon together with a full face helmet.
I wear a neck brace only when we’re riding at a bike park or sometimes shuttling if we know there are big features we want to hit 😊
Ride sugestion: Go visit Syd and Macky ! :)
They are the true pros. Maybe they can teach me how to ride properly…🤔
♡ Wow
Go Yuka your awesome
Yay👍✨
Should show more footage of the barrel trail. Just rode it. It’s a fun one. Curious if you two hit the big drop on then trail? Need motivation to hit it lol.
Way to go Yuka
My Ginny pigs are ok 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hey, why Eric don't upload the videos more often? I like your videos a lot as well!
What makes mountain biking extreme is the cost of buying a good quality mountain bike.
That’s true😪
What makes mountain biking great is the special people involved in the sport, such as Van Girl Yuka!
Check out Guacamole Trails 😁
Someone also recommended me too! But we missed it😭
Best video!!
Scared me!
Nice video and spot
Love you Yuka
Nice! love the videos. what happened to Erics videos. miss watching one every week.
He took January off and start posting a video every 3 weeks😁
i think you should be in redbull rampage yuka
I'll be a true wild bore!!
If Yuka is average what am I 🤣 she rips!
I went there too and it was hard ..i did some riding but it's very hard
It’s intimidating, isn’t it?
@@VanGirlYuka yep very very much... I walked 90%of the features..
Come to Ohio. Ray's indoor MTN bike park. Cleveland Ohio
I watched videos about the park! I’d love to go🤩
Ride in Asheville
We’ve ridden there 2 years ago! That was fun!
A saying by Abe Lincoln occurred to me as I watched this video--- " It is not a wise thing to rein in your horse halfway into the jump." He was speaking about politics, but....
Everything is connecting to mountain biking
hello what is the chin attachement for your go pro ?

Exactly - Yuka is not allowed to call herself an "average" rider. :)
Oh… I’m not an average rider!? You guys are so nice…✨
Red Bull rampage is held in virgin Utah not at George my home town
St George
Everything ok, I haven't seem Eric post in a LONG time
He will be back posting this month 😉
@@VanGirlYuka can't wait I was getting a bit worried
TLDW: No, they can't.
I have a question that has been burning my brain.

I think depending on the contractions. In out case, we kept it but they might want you to send it back. So you should make it clear before getting one😊
Flying is not so difficult. To survive the landing is the difficult part.
That’s true. Completely right🤔
haha 😆
BRO U GUYS ARENT AVERAGE LOL!!. U GUYS PRO
You're way too humble, describing yourself as an "average" rider. I wish I had your guts and "just send it!" attitude!
I feel your idea of average may be off.
how are you average? I don't get it....
uyou need some skills to to this . not hating but if you cant go down a small hill you are not ready for big stuff it dagerous
However, I like to live
Above average. Far above average.
1st comment YES!!!!
Never average.
Yuka, you are far from average.
You are too nice 😘
"Average." Ha! What does that make me? Don't answer. 🙂
Yuka is definitely not an average rider....
Nothing average about Yuka.
yo I love the channel and all your vids, but your helmet is way to big on your head lol why is nobody saying anything
Do you think so?
@@VanGirlYuka 3:18 caught my eye for some reason, there’s so much play when you move it. any heavy slams to the face your jaw is toast lol
Honestly, insulting that you think you and Eric are "average". Stop sandbagging yourself. I see you hitting jumps larger than most women in the Cranxwork series. I would love to see you start learning some tricks!!
Ummmmmmm, no. YOU ARE NOT AN AVERAGE RIDER! :)
