I know it's a pain and a lot of extra work getting all those alternate takes and angles for a video, but I think they add a lot. It was worth the effort IMO.
It's easier in this case because i was sessoning single features. Its a lot harder on normal trails because it requires stopping and hiking back, or asking someone else to film which can be annoying for them.
First off, backflips will ALWAYS be cool. 2nd, it’s nice to see you session a step up with some tricks. That was unexpected. 3rd, I can’t backflip, so not EVERYBODY can do it. 😉
I'm so envious of your ability to get onto a jump trail that you either don't know or haven't ridden in a long time and just flow so smoothly. I don't jump because they get in my head too much. I'd love to learn and get comfortable with them, though.
I learned to ride here over 12 years ago and still ride here to this day! Such a gem, so glad you could show it off to the community! I love that the park has everything from beginner to expert. It's great to take someone riding for the first time or 1,000th time
Hey Bud it is not free. Somebody has to buy the tools and materials to build and maintain. Have you donated to Evergreen? Remember nothing in this world is free.
@@antoniomedina428 You know what he meant but you just gotta be that guy. Fine, I'll be that guy too. In your own words, "nothing in this world is free". What's your rationale behind oxygen not being free? The trees have to produce it?
Phil I’ve been using your videos to help my daughter get used to looking further down the trail. She has a bad habit of watching her front tire. Keep up the awesomeness!
Lived a mile from this place. When people bring up mountain biking in the PNW they always seem to go to galbraith mountain or whistler or something. I truly believe that this place should be mentioned among them for the simple facts that it has everything for eveyone, you can get reps, its free, and...NO CLIMBING
NO WAY! I went here while on vacation a week ago!! HLC was the first black diamond trail I've ever cleared and it was amazing, so cool to see you there!
i got into riding at duthie and it has grown, especially those sweetlines bike camps as a kid helped me progress a ton to where i am today, nowadays i dont ride there as much as i am on the sweetlines race team and we train at raging river but i like to go back when i can. edit: i am planning on spending some time there because the new jumps and trails are amazing, the builders have gotten so much better in the last couple months, also at 4:30 i actually helped rebuild that jump (deepwater)
Just rode at Duthie yesterday. It made me wish there was something even remotely similar closer to where I live. I've been learning to jump over the past year and I think having a park like Duthie with so much variety where it's so easy to get repetition and practice is crucial!
Yup, it's 25 minutes away from me and back when I first started MTB, I made what felt like 3-4 years of progress in a single summer. So good to practice jumps, cornering, pumping, drops, etc.
This bike park looks so good I would love to ride there and be at the same skill level as you. Thanks for the extra angles I know it takes a lot of extra work
i love your videos and ive been watching you for sometime. i did not know you could do tricks and it makes me enjoy you that much more. thank you for your videos
First UA-cam video with a backflip I ever saw was Phil on the Raleigh Tokul hardtail. I had searched for Tokul because I had just bought one, my first "modern" mountain bike. Subscribed to Phil right then and there!
I was just thinking last week that I need to go there to brush up on some skills. Thanks for the motivation! 😆 It’s always worth the hour drive to get there. And thanks for the additional views in the video.
Great video Phil! I heard about Duthie Hill from Seth's a year or so ago, so I went there for a week this past July on my way to Whistler again. It's an awesome park in so many ways. I can't wait to revisit. Thanks.
Hell ya. Duthie Hill is amazing, especially when you just don't wanna climb much and focus more on developing skills. Tiger and Raging are also awesome and close by.
So cool to see you ride our local trails. The trail beside double trouble that was recently rebuilt is called GHY. Hope it’s open the next time you’re in town.
I was so close to get to ride this, earlier this year. I have a lot of business trips to Seattle / Redmond, but never ever in summer.... And then i had to cancel last second.... So nice to see that i missed, and the next time I have a change to go in summertime I will take a personal day, rent a eMTB and go :)
You can ride Duthie basically all year. Wood features can get sketchy in the wet, but most of the trails there drain really well. So don't feel like you need to wait for a summer trip to hit it!
Something about your camera angle makes Deep Water Horizon look super scary, which its actually very chill... If you havent checked it out when you were in the area exit 27 is kind of meca for locals.
It was funny, just after you hit that big jump, I said to myself 'dang thatd be sweet if he had a huck cam' and then you went and set a couple up! Nice. Also, Ive always wondered how do people get good doing backflips, or any kind of flip, without breaking their neck learning? Is it a visualize alot, then just send it sort of thing, or is there alot of crash n burns (hopefully minus the broken neck) before you get it? Thanks for all the good videos!
You should Go to Millstone in Vermont again, that place was crazy!! Been trying to get friends to go up with me from Southern NH but every time something comes up!!
I just started mountain biking with my dad(I’m 13) and I really think look up to u and my dad it would be awesome if u came to pa for a while and hit up some trail like Trexler and blue mountain
Hey Phil, nice riding! How do you handle anxiety when you ride trails like that? I live an hour from Duthie and I tend to avoid it like the plague. I have an anxiety disorder and I've only ridden just a few trails there over the last several years. I want to try some of the harder stuff but it scares me to death!
I feel like there's gotta be a way to reach out to locals, I know they would love showing you around, and it would make for a great video! Edit: I love the 3rd person clips!
I don't broadcast where I'm riding, and i find coordinating things with other people to be a chore. I think that's why i always like riding skateparks, you just show up and ride with whoever is there, or just do your own thing in the corner.
Ok. Was trying to have this on as just like background sound while studying but found myself leaning back and forth too much to study, trying to help you through the turns I guess...lol
I know it's a pain and a lot of extra work getting all those alternate takes and angles for a video, but I think they add a lot. It was worth the effort IMO.
I couldn't agree more with that statement keep up the good work phill love the videos

@@SkillsWithPhilare you going to go to port gamble at all well in Washington
@oliverdowning9840 i went there last year, it was great!

I came here to make the same comment. I loved the alternative views. Very good video.
I live 20 minutes away from duthie and I love it so much. Great to see it getting even more publicity
Same
No more publicity. Don't come, trails suck and you'll get eaten by a bear.

My first time last July. I'll definitely be back as much as possible.😛
One of my favorite places I've ridden. Such a fun place with something for everyone. So glad it's free. I wish I lived closer.

Never ceases to amaze me how confident you are hitting big lines completely blind!
really appreciating the effort to capture all these different angles of you riding. really adds a good dynamic to the video
Absolutely love seeing some 3rd person clips! keep it up!
Phil I’ve been using your videos to help my daughter get used to looking further down the trail.
She has a bad habit of watching her front tire.
Keep up the awesomeness!
Insane backflip dude was not expecting it 👌👌
Awesome video, good to see you just having fun, with no stress at all, loved the stills that you had
My buddy took my to Duthie when I didnt know anything about mountain biking and I was blown away. That place is amazing, would love to go back.

I agree! I cant wait to return. Although there can be a little climbing. Mild climbing.
Man that backflip was awesome wish I could ride again ❤❤
What do you mean again
NO WAY! I went here while on vacation a week ago!! HLC was the first black diamond trail I've ever cleared and it was amazing, so cool to see you there!
i got into riding at duthie and it has grown, especially those sweetlines bike camps as a kid helped me progress a ton to where i am today, nowadays i dont ride there as much as i am on the sweetlines race team and we train at raging river but i like to go back when i can.

Even the sound of the dirt, hits me different. loooove them! Specially here in Washington, we get really good dirt i feel.
Phil, 3rd person goes hard, loved this video, kinda cool just riding solo with nobody around sometimes, and fun to watch.
The fact I could've seen Phil if I went really buggin my I love this guy so much!
This park looks like they update it outve love for the sport. Nice to see! Cool designs too!

yeah, the trails there have so much progression built into them, I advanced my skills a ton just after a few hours of riding, I want to go back!
Yup, it's 25 minutes away from me and back when I first started MTB, I made what felt like 3-4 years of progress in a single summer. So good to practice jumps, cornering, pumping, drops, etc.

Loving the 3rd person shots. I know it takes a while but it's worth it. Cool public bike park 🔥
Imagine you're out for an early ride, trails are completely empty and you just roll up on Phil doing backflips 🤣
Alllmost got away unrecognized! Loved the improvised tri-pods...you managed to get some pretty sweet angles!
Improvising tripods is fun puzzle, but having an extra hand is definitely more convenient!
Oh, the shovel...it's a shovel cam.😊
What a gem. Thank for sharing. Hope to visit this one, one day.
Nice riding Phil! There's a lot more in the area to check out if you're ever back too!
Here a bit late but this has been literally my favorite nature, trail texture as I am starting riding a bike that is the place i would go :)
Phils skills killing it!
Hell ya. Duthie Hill is amazing, especially when you just don't wanna climb much and focus more on developing skills. Tiger and Raging are also awesome and close by.
The one at 13:30ish was double trouble, one of my favorites. I was just there about 4 weeks ago, wish I lived near there.
That backflip was sick!!
Oh yeah Jay!! Get him back on here, those were great episodes!! He has good all around spatial awareness. Top notch person as well!!
He's on the mend from a broken clavicle, thatll happen again soon though
This place is really fun. I've been there before and i recommend going there.
Great editing and angles Phil!
that’s …..what “She” said
Your soo good at mountain biking I love watching your videos your great keep it up 🚵♂️👍
Nice 👍 awesome video
"Who moved my shovel!?" -- "Skills with Phil did? Okay that's fine."
It was the wind! 🙄
So cool to see you ride our local trails. The trail beside double trouble that was recently rebuilt is called GHY. Hope it’s open the next time you’re in town.
Do you know why it's closed?
Last few runs where clean 👍
This place looks awesome
Really enjoyed the additional phone cam footage!
You make the jumps look so small bro! haha
I love this park I live 10 mins away, and yes the camps are packed
looks nice there bud we need something more like that here in the UK
Love the video, hope you come again!
Blue Loctite ftw
Well not "everybody" can do back flips! haha 🙋🏻♂ Great episode, bike park looks rad!
This is my go-to local spot. Next time you're around let me guide you through it!
nice form on the back flip
That’s a really nice mountain bike park.
the backflip!
Not capping I was in the evergreen camp that week and saw me couch in the vid lol
I live a 5 min bike ride away from duthie ain’t no way the day I’m out on vacation you pull up
Sweet little park
Bro I love how your doing more local parks pls do 360 trails text it’s about 1 hour away 🙏🙏
Going here today
When you return to Washington state, you should head south to the Capital Forest outside of the state capital and ride the North Slope. great riding.
I was so close to get to ride this, earlier this year. I have a lot of business trips to Seattle / Redmond, but never ever in summer.... And then i had to cancel last second....

This park is so fun
Phil, if you build something like this on the East coast, they will come.
Hey Phil? How do you have your camera mounted to this white helmet in this video?
Mt Spokane state park in E WA has some awesome trails!
Something about your camera angle makes Deep Water Horizon look super scary, which its actually very chill... If you havent checked it out when you were in the area exit 27 is kind of meca for locals.

I was waiting for the Duthie video I love this place along with Galbraith amazing video what was your fav trail
You should Go to Millstone in Vermont again, that place was crazy!! Been trying to get friends to go up with me from Southern NH but every time something comes up!!
you need a loctite sponsorship lol
I just need to use the loctite I have 😂
Great video, come to Massachusetts and ride the iconic Vietnam trails!
I just started mountain biking with my dad(I’m 13) and I really think look up to u and my dad it would be awesome if u came to pa for a while and hit up some trail like Trexler and blue mountain
Your social battery was so depleted that day lol. I get it. It was kind of funny to watch though. (in a good way).
Why does it sound like your rotor is rubbing again when you load the bike? i've noticed this on a few videos of yours now?
Are you running big rotors?
Hey Phil, nice riding! How do you handle anxiety when you ride trails like that? I live an hour from Duthie and I tend to avoid it like the plague.

Phil can go longer than Mr Rogers Neighborhood without saying a bad word.
Always wanted to ride here! Are you coming back to the Island any time soon?
Not this season, or not planning on it right more. Staying a bit more east coast this season
I would've gone to duthie if I didnt get surgery, sad I didn't meet you.
I don't do backflips, never will again and not feeling good about them 😅
Injuries are kind of a bummer 😂
What gloves are those? Love the blue color!
What gear do u use while riding and jumps ill start 6 what about u?
sick but cool - i guess it looks faster on video than it was in real?
I mean that's basically just a playground for bikes
this is penguinzo if he rides a bike lmao
duthee!!!
Is your rotor out of true?
What bike do you use
Gt Sensor

I bike there everday. Im lucky 2 live in the neighborhood right next to Duthie
Ok. Was trying to have this on as just like background sound while studying but found myself leaning back and forth too much to study, trying to help you through the turns I guess...lol
Man you are hell on your bikes you’re always tightening loose bolts. Lol
Well in this situation it's because my mechanic didnt use loctite, so you can blame them (aka me).
Need some loctite on those shock bolts will help a lil with them coming loose
What bike is that
