  • When you're driving through a small mountain town and only have time for one lap, you might as well choose the hardest one. You can tell the stoke was high by the number of times I burst into my high pitch laugh...

Since I saw this video when it came out, I’ve become obsessed with improving and becoming a better mountain biker, and it has changed my life. I have now been riding for a year, and this is now one of my favorite hobbies I hope to continue it for years to come.

    What I respect the most is that you know your limitations and you don't let your ego write checks your ass can't cash. When you looked at that bad jump and said, "I'm not feeling it", you did the right thing by going around it rather than taking a stupid risk on something you weren't sure you could accomplish. It takes brains as well as daring to pull stunts like this, and you admirably displayed both.

    not going to lie, I appreciate the whole fact that you took your time, didn't make unnecessary risks, and even showed us when you weren't feeling a trick because the track leading up to it had collapsed. Aside from the entire video being exhilarating on its own, it showed that there's more to it than sheer stubborn adrenaline chasing. More than anything the video makes me want to develop a video game that captures this feeling.

      He for sure wouldn't be able to stop in time if he tried that stunt he skipped. Most of the spots where he could've died, would be slamming into trees.
      If he wasn't good at stopping, those jumps would also be fatal.
      And I say fatal, because he is doing all of this solo. Any good injury is fatal out there,
      Helmets are important and all, but a helmet is not a force field. You slam into a tree at ANY angle with this speed, you are 100% dead.

    Beyond expert: That means use of judgement. The biker was careful selecting his jumps and reviewing the paths. This is of course beyond skills because this has to do with THINKING. The rider has to carefully think his traverse and face decisions in the track.
    Whoever designed this is a genius or a madman. Either way this was an amazing concept. This can easily reach video games.
