      Haha yeah I think you're right, he's coming for me! Nothing would make me more proud than to get smoked on a trail by my son, I give it another year or two...

    Milo's riding seems so effortless. The way he picks up speed is amazing. Dad is having to push harder just to keep up.

    • @PorterMTB
      @PorterMTB  2 роки тому +3

      I agree, it must be all the time on the pumptrack and the hardtail, he's great at pumping, finding good lines, and staying smooth, it's really good to see!

    Trey here from Race Cascadia, great video as always, and super impressive Milo took the win riding two of three stages blind. This should also be mandatory watching for all parents riding with their kids at our events. It was the perfect amount of support and encouragement.

    • @PorterMTB
      @PorterMTB  2 роки тому +7

      What's up Trey! Glad you enjoyed the video, I was hoping to do your event justice, you guys are crushing it. That was an amazing event, we would love to race the whole series if we could! Feel free to share the video if you want, I always try to encourage people to just let the kids ride their race and be there in a support role, they don't need someone to tell them to go faster or try harder, it's all about having fun!

    I'm a 15 yr old girl going into my first Enduro race this weekend. Watching these videos makes me excited knowing I'm never going to be alone in the world, as people have to start somewhere, at any age.
    I come from a family of cross country racing, and my sister raced at a national level, but I was always better at the downhill/tech, so I told my dad I would commit to Enduro racing, he said I had to prove to him I would devote myself to it, so I practiced downhill and Enduro courses everyday near my house and included practicing jumps, trakcstand, etc, and he got me a bike and armour for my birthday.
    I am so excited for my race, and Goodluck to your son! My father used to be faster than me, but now he can't keep up! Soon, it will be the same, as another comment said 😎

    • @PorterMTB
      @PorterMTB  2 роки тому +1

      That is so cool to hear, you are gonna have so much fun!!! Enduro is a really good environment, I'm sure every race is different but all the enduro's I've done were very welcoming and people rode together throughout the day. It's great talking to other riders on the climbs and before/after stages too. Milo also races XC but he REALLY loves the DH and Enduro stuff, he's begging to do a DH race next year! That's awesome you're going faster than your dad too, I wonder if Milo will beat me by the time he's 15?? Good luck this weekend!!

    That moment when your riding with your kid(s) and you ACTUALLY get a chance to sit back and SEE their progression is such an amazing sense of "it all paid off". Watching your kids progress and and seeing they have such a love for riding is so awesome. Good job on raising some great kids and GOOD JOB MILO! Keep up the good work and stay focused on the fun!

    I've also found that 12 years is the right age to let them take the next step into independence - you soon find out if you've done a good job!

      What's up! It was great to meet you! Definitely a lot of climbing, but I enjoy that part of it too. Milo made so many friends since you spend time with other racers talking on the climbs, it's really great for getting to know people and having fun together.

      The suspension does really well, we both have Fox 36 forks and Fox DPX2 rear shocks, you can tune them for any terrain.

    Trails look super fun and Milo read them well, congrats on the win. Despite this not being the usual way it goes, running it basically blind, I think that it's a format that needs to be encouraged, really does help those with pure skill shine. Can't wait until Owen's old enough to enter some of these, I'm betting that unlike with Milo, you'll still be a bit worried about what he'll do once he's "on the clock" 😆

    • @PorterMTB
      @PorterMTB  2 роки тому

      The trails were super fun, and I agree on blind racing, I absolutely love the first time down a trail seeing how fast I can go and hold it together, would be fun do race something like that. Haha Owen is definitely a little more loose, you might be right!
