  • "and then it got better", the trail. Every so often a trail comes along that just completely blows your mind. You can't stop thinking about it and itch to go back for more as soon as you're at the bottom. This is that trail for me, an extremely steep Euro-turn loamer that genuinely makes you feel like a superhero. Stoke is at an all time high and you can even hear the smiles. Thanks a ton to the builder for this absolute gem, and letting me film the good bits. Enjoy!
    Trailforks: Nope, sorry! ;)

    That trail looks so incredible. Hats off to you for keeping it quiet and anybody who doesn't get why you're not telling is where it is doesn't deserve to ride it.

    Some of those switchbacks on the steeps almost looked like a jump turn on skis. Love hearing the sound of the tires on different surfaces.

    Wowww that looks good. I like that when you showcase secret trails you talk to the builder and obscure it well... there's some other UA-camrs that have video at look-out spots that totally gives away the location.... respect!

    Unreal trail and great riding there! I'm not sure I've ever seen anyone in your videos riding clips. Does anyone use them or are flats the default because of the skinnies and jank?

    • @DaleStone
      @DaleStone  4 роки тому +2

    Wild! Also how do you turn your bike on those ultra steep and tight switch-backs?? does the back wheel just follow, or are u shifting weight, or hopping etc?

    • @DaleStone
      @DaleStone  4 роки тому +2

      Sometimes it's a nose pivot, sometimes I grab the rear brake, and sometimes it's only thoughts and prayers.

      Grow up bro. People swarm in and ruin s#@t! Think about it; everybody moves to a small town then what? Not small anymore. It's ruined. Or, hey you invited people over for dinner and there one person who's pissed cause you won't give them your family recipe. Like dude, that's the whole point. Just enjoy the food. Appreciate what you're watching. Go find your own little gem. Have good ride. Try not using the word "pompous". Have a cup of coffee. Wash your bike. Pet a dog. Give someone a hug!
