Still thinking you can choose to not ride a 3 meter deathbmachine up a hill that will kick up in the air and land on you. But that is just my take. Whatever people enjoy.
Back in my teens, I was doing this on my quad (Suzuki Quadracer 250). Much smaller hill but just as steep. One run my front wheels came up, and I veered to the side of the path where a big hole was. Looped out fully and bailed off the back. Once I rolled to the bottom of the hill, I started to get up on my hands and knees. My quad did a full flip down the hill and landed square on top of me! Glad I had on full race gear, cracked my helmet and put a huge gash from a bolt into the back of my chest protector. I was ok, just knocked the wind out of me. Never rode without gear ever!
@@ericcope8216 it didn't look easy to me. It could be argued that Vincent went outside the right line at one point, at least from the camera angle this vid is shot at, idk how strict they are about that anyway, but damn, Thomas nearly didn't make it to the top, came very close to missing it right at the end there

You’ll notice 2 things about those can truly ride: they don’t sit on the seat; they don’t put their feet down. Why? They’re able to properly balance the bike underneath themselves and are “ahead” of what’s happening with the bike and in the terrain. Every other rider is just coping with what’s already going on.
I love watching hill climbs. These guys watch failure after failure after failure and then just be like, yeah, I can make it, and full send it. Then every once in a great while someone not only does make it, but makes it look easy when they do it.
I like how the dudes on the upper part go "Ever man for his damn self" and run in every direction as soon as the bike starts rolling down. Chaotic. I love it
Bravo ! Après avoir regardé moultes vidéos de MI, je comprends ces 3 clés du succès : 1. debout et toujours toujours garder les pieds sur les cales pieds (charger la moto), 2. (Essayer de) garder de la vitesse, même faible, 3. Sauter les marches , ne pas avoir à les franchir. Plus facile à écrire en commentaire qu'à faire 😅😂
My brother used to race speedway. He was literally scouted at a track day when he was just going around a track on his bike. He raced for a few years until my mum possessed him to stop as she didn't want him to get her as speedway bikes don't have breaks and she couldn't get over that. He did trails after that. He would love this sadly he has epilepsy now so isn't allowed on a bike. He had so much skill on a bike it was unbelievable. He could ride a motorbike before a push bike. I did motor cross for a year but same thing my mum hates bikes and talked me into quitting. Our family have a natural skill for it. My cousins, uncles, my dad my brother's all involved in bikes in one way or another. Never done hill climbing before. Trials is the closest i have tried but it wasn't my thing too many things to be aware of. where as motor cross I could just get into a flow. All I have now is a 2005 KX250 that hasn't seen daylight In 4 years as I live in the city.
So this might be a silly question, but presumably after every race the hill is progressively more and more messed up and the ruts are deeper and deeper. Is any attempt made to repair the damage between races or is there just going to be a point where things are too messed up to be climbed and they need to pick a new spot?
Good question, short answer is no. Nothing is done. Look up the Andler hill climb. It's documented on YT since early 2010s. It was a dirt hill then. It's just rocks now, cool to see the transition over the years after all the hill climbs ate the side of the hilll away.
yeah, I think the ruts and loose top soil would make things worse as it's being used more. Ruts would give more traction, but you can't really balance if you're stuck in a rut.
Wow, the tension at 10:29 was unreal! 😱 These riders are absolute legends for attempting this climb. Major respect for their skill and courage! Who else thinks they should add a slow-motion replay for those epic moments? 🔥👏
I'm 69 years old now and retain the evidence of such behavior from my youth--re-attached nose, and greasy sprocket knee tattoo included. Some pretty impressive climbs, here, though.
Raise the foot pegs 30cm? Drop the handle bars forward? These bikes have evolved to meet this hill, yearly. Such amazingly specialized machines! I think raising the footpegs or addng a second pair for the top half of the climb could result in more full pulls. Supercrossers can get their helmet near the front fender sometimes when going vertical. Mabye drop the handlebars like a crotch rocket's bars. Or reverse ape-hanges from a chopper? Inspired by, but purpose built for this beastly hill. I love watching this hill climb year after year. I think if they rode more like jockeys on race horses. Or something. Surely, I've solved the problem. They can change the pegs at the dealer, right?
I hope theres a prize for those who landed and stayed on their feet. Of those who made it, I assume it then comes down to time. Looks like a great sport. As a photographer I know how hard it is to show just how steep a hill can be.
No it's not. Three things needed to succeed: taking the best line, jumping over the steepest sections which is really what's throwing people off, lot's of experience of the same level of challenge and a bit of luck. Nothing to do with the bike design.
This video truly captures the essence of hill climbing and the sheer determination of the participants. Watching the athletes tackle those steep inclines and challenging obstacles is both exhilarating and nerve-wracking. It’s amazing to see how they push themselves to their limits, especially when faced with a tough climb like Arette. I noticed how some riders seemed to have a technique that gave them an edge, particularly in managing their speed and momentum. I wonder if certain strategies could be shared among participants to help them improve. The community aspect of these events is fantastic, with everyone cheering each other on. It makes me think about how much teamwork plays a role, even in what seems like an individual sport.
I'm about 10 miles from the devils staircase, which is this weekend. I don't know where this is and it's a different hill, but a lot of these guys look like it's their first time on a motorcycle compared to here.
Второго нет. Важно в этом не проиграть. Тут важно знание и вера. Знание в том оно, что Христос победил врага. И эта победа одержана ради и во имя каждого человека, каждого!

They spend all their gouvernement money developing these hillclimb motorcycles, instead of developing weapons. Maybe all country's in the West should have done this.
I found myself gasping every time the bike was chasing them down the hill, imagine those spikes landing on you?
Perhaps a handlebar piercing a lung?
They basically have body armor on a full torso cage and leg plates.

@@Nizzon. Let's see your climb
that's because they can ride. To climb this you have to be able to ride motocross pretty well, and I can tell you 95% don't know how to.
The fact no one got seriously hurt is a miracle
Now, for the opposite : the famous cheese-rolling competition of england 😂 (btw, I think they have more caualties...)
They edit the video.
i don't know what's more watchable: the going up or the coming back down
@zeepping) Both
Coming back down is the easiest part
I like how they've incorporated Rockstar's game physics into real life :D
It takes some nuts to have a go, though. Props!
So glad to see him make it to top. This needs to be an Olympic sport.
It could take the place of break dancing!
It it became an Olympic sport it would be full of cheating Chinese, fake men, letter groups, woke pimps, and dopers. 😅
They would just add a bunch of silly rules that would take all the fun out of it.
Vincent Mougenot is incredible. From his start you can feel he's experienced.

Dude falling down the hill shows how steep it really is.
Yeah, they are always steeper then they look on camera.
These guys have perfected the art of bailing safely.

Lack of talent from Australia.

I used to do this nearly 50 yrs ago. Need to approach that hill at 80 MPH and keep as much that momentum possible without flipping.
