I love the sound of I-9 Hydras lol. Killer bees with light oil or an authoritative quiet buzz with light grease. Both are great hubs. But there’s great joy in killer bee mode gaining steadily on someone below and ahead of you :)
This is the first of your videos I've seen from this camera angle, and it's actually really helpful for those of us wanting to get a sense of what you're doing with the bike, vs. just seeing what you see.
To your comment of more kids riding.. yeah I think mtb and skiing/sbn are great family sports. I really enjoy watching my daughter progress. She has a passion for it. It is great family time and good outdoor time. Watching you go through those trees, like watching a video game! Great stuff keep it up please
It's amazing to see Skully's evolution. Went from muddy loam with ruts & flat corners (2017) into a superhighway (2021). It's super fun now with how fast it is, but I'm glad I rode it before to appreciate the work that went into it!
I didn't like this angle at first but then realized that it does a pretty good job at countering the go pro effect as well as allowing you to see way down the trail. Good stuff, Phil.
It’s so awesome to see how my old stomping grounds have grown, As I went to private school in Williston, when I was there Cochrans was just a one rope tow and two runs, it looks like it has gotten way bigger. I also enjoy seeing that Bolton ski area put in bike trails, also seeing snowboard footage from the winter brought me back! How has catamount family recreation area grown? you should do a video there as well.
Hi mate, I bought a mountain bike (Giant Trance 3 2020) after watching your Whistler videos. Absolutely loving it!!! (living on Sydney's Northern Beaches). Keep up posting awesome videos. Cheers
The extra wide angle is both cool and weird. It gives a really warped view of your arms, but at the same time we're also seeing just how much bodywork is going in to your riding. Hello Haley!
Nice to see you and your bike dancing down the trails Phil. btw, got my AbsoluteBlack Oval chainring in the right size this time - so nice. The first one was a bit large for my bike but worked under sag, anyway, got a 32 tooth to replace it but in the meantime went back to my original round chainring - now 2 rides later though chunder tech - my legs are so much happier and climbs not such a drag. Really have to develop the trails round here - not a heap of elevation but some great tech forest trails following the forest harvester tracks.
Been watching your videos for 2 weeks straight. Went to sky park in Santa's Village in So Cal. yesterday. It was pretty sick hit my first double black diamond and black diamond run. It was the only place open Snow Summit and all of the National Forest from Mammoth to TJ is closed because of Fire.
I’ve been thinking about taking a trip over to Cochran’s for a while now. I’ve not ridden their before and it looks super fun! If you haven’t gone in a while I would highly suggest Cafu Hill! Thanks for the great video!
WoW! How I have missed videos of Phil fucking flying through the woods! I’d say he like the 29 inch wheels are still pretty agile! Great riding ! Love the video!
I have to say. Even though I ride BMX (street f/s) I love watching your videos. They have a totally different kind of adrenaline rush to them. I've thought about giving MTB a shot (more than just rolling through the woods near my house, but I'd eat it so bad on a mountain it wouldn't even be funny. Keep up the videos, I love watching them when they pop up!
Hey phil thanks to you I am getting back into biking and I'm making my next bike the polygon siskiu n9 with 27.5 size wheels and size medium so I can flick it around thank you for posting
Love your videos. Wish there was a way for you to do a speedometer overlay in them just so we can see the speeds you hit on the trails. Think it would be cool.
Guess I know where we are headed this weekend! lived here all my life and sorry to say never been to cochrans :( Given Saxon Hill plenty of my life so time for something new!
Yay new Phil bike content! I don't even care that you weren't at Highland haha. (this is just my opinion but I like the chin mount view better (although you probably weren't wearing a full face so it's all good))
Your footage looks so good like this! I’ve got a Hero 8 Black, how do you get this fish eye effect? Also, where are you mounting your GoPro? Is this the chin mount on your full face?
I have to admit, this being my first legitimate camera, I am overwhelmed by the amount of settings there are. Watching numerous UA-cam videos has only made it worse.
My home trails! Been sidelined with a broken leg and surgery since Feb, so getting in the woods isn't possible. I'm a VMBA/ Richmond Riders Club member and love seeing these trails so much. I hope you checkout Chamberlain! ..... and I wish you picked Visceral ;-)
Different camera and setup. I’m playing around with this setup seeing what works. It’s way more functional for me and I like the results especially being able to see the bike move underneath.
I feel like a baby kangaroo watching this xD
Haha I took me a while to get this
Literally pissed myself reading this
Hahaha 😂
Sonny O’Dare considered seeing a doctor?
Dobrze powiedziane 😉😉 siemanko
Who else wanted to see Phil do the pump track???
yeah :D
Me, the fish eye perspective is so weird though
I like it
I wish Hailey had her own videos when she rides with you. I would love to see a complete ride from her perspective.
I agree Hailey should definitely post some new videos on her channel
The field of view is tripping me out, you have the longest arms in the world!
Love these trails! Buddy from my old school masterminded a lot of them. Don’t get to ride them as much as I would like anymore
It’s alway weird seeing a place you’ve skied when there’s no snow.
Damn Phil... You got mad skillzzzzzz... flying down the trails!!!!
YEAH PHIL HAS A NEW VIDEO!! I have been watching your whistler vids over and over and over the past few months lol.
This is exactly what I have been doing lol
Thank you so much for the vid I love watching you.
Thanks my dude!
The tubing in the video is for the maple sugaring operation that the Cochran’s run.
Thank you! I was literally scrolling through the comments to see if anyone's asked the question.
@@Candesce lmao me too
@@Candesce Same here lol. Thanks !
I just learned something new
Thanks
YES NEW POV got tired of watching your whistler serie over and over lol
Dude.... same here😂😂
I like POV but the FOV was a little too wide angle, hard to watch.
John The Dwayn Rockson I don’t really like the new camera angle
Love the silent Onyx hubs, Phil! Good call!
I love the sound of I-9 Hydras lol. Killer bees with light oil or an authoritative quiet buzz with light grease. Both are great hubs. But there’s great joy in killer bee mode gaining steadily on someone below and ahead of you :)
@@mrsmartypants_1 bees chasing you makes you ride faster for sure
Me: thats an impossible rock roll
Phil: Watch me do this in 3 tries
This is the first of your videos I've seen from this camera angle, and it's actually really helpful for those of us wanting to get a sense of what you're doing with the bike, vs. just seeing what you see.
Love these Onyx hubs. thank you for spec'ing that; your videos are much more pleasant.

Phils heart was pumpin at the prayer flags. lol
Used to ski race at this hill, great family and a awesome little race hill!
Thanks for helping to put Vermont on the map! We’ve got the goods 🤘🏻🤘🏻
I didn't like this angle at first but then realized that it does a pretty good job at countering the go pro effect as well as allowing you to see way down the trail. Good stuff, Phil.
Great to watch again a traditional Skills with Phil riding video. They are the best 👍
Absolutely rippin!
I just got back riding my local trails and felt like I was flying. How does he double my speed! Phil is definitely my mountain bike idol.
Phil is AMAZING
You must really know those trails, the way you fly off little blind jumps and round corners gives me the willys!
ok ... that was insane riding ... those trails are steep and gnarly and you made it look easy !!!
It’s so awesome to see how my old stomping grounds have grown, As I went to private school in Williston, when I was there Cochrans was just a one rope tow and two runs, it looks like it has gotten way bigger.

you should do a video there as well.
Awesome rolling, guys! On the DL for a few more weeks, but your content helps with the stoke! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you Phill for this video! Couldn't ride for two weeks and still can't, brings me joy watching this great POV action, cheers!
Beautiful trails! Wish I lived in Vermont
I like the versatility in the camera perspectives!
Cochrans is pretty fun. I've only been there once last fall with my brother who goes to UVM. It looks like they added some stuff. Cool.
Hi mate, I bought a mountain bike (Giant Trance 3 2020) after watching your Whistler videos. Absolutely loving it!!! (living on Sydney's Northern Beaches). Keep up posting awesome videos. Cheers
I really like the new view, thanks for spicing it up!
Phil has some of the best pov footage out there.
I'll have to bring my bike up to Vermont next time I'm visiting my family, thanks for the great content.
mad how much speed you get out of the little hunps you pump on. the sound your tire makes when you pump into them burms haha
The extra wide angle is both cool and weird. It gives a really warped view of your arms, but at the same time we're also seeing just how much bodywork is going in to your riding. Hello Haley!
big fan Phil keep up the good work!
Its kinda refreshing to see the northeast as it looks very different from BC
One heck of a trail. I'm here in New Mexico, so very dry. Cheers!
Nice to see you and your bike dancing down the trails Phil.
btw, got my AbsoluteBlack Oval chainring in the right size this time - so nice. The first one was a bit large for my bike but worked under sag, anyway, got a 32 tooth to replace it but in the meantime went back to my original round chainring - now 2 rides later though chunder tech - my legs are so much happier and climbs not such a drag.
Really have to develop the trails round here - not a heap of elevation but some great tech forest trails following the forest harvester tracks.
I like the camera view. It gives a good perspective on how much you are leaning
Cochran's is getting better all the time!
Been watching your videos for 2 weeks straight. Went to sky park in Santa's Village in So Cal. yesterday. It was pretty sick hit my first double black diamond and black diamond run. It was the only place open Snow Summit and all of the National Forest from Mammoth to TJ is closed because of Fire.
I can't tell if your line is by choice, instinct, or maybe some luck, but wow lots of skill and fun to watch.
I’ve been thinking about taking
a trip over to Cochran’s for a while now. I’ve not ridden their before and it looks super fun! If you haven’t gone in a while I would highly suggest Cafu Hill! Thanks for the great video!
Me: trying to do hw and zoom
Phil: Uploads a video
Me: This can wait I need to watch the new vid
Ur top comment again
So true
Why couldn't they use discord instead of zoom
@@blakejamieson389 all the gamer would troll on discord lol. i agree
You guys still have school? F to pay respects.
WoW! How I have missed videos of Phil fucking flying through the woods! I’d say he like the 29 inch wheels are still pretty agile! Great riding ! Love the video!
Skills with Phil gopro footage.
How I feel while riding.
Also how my gopro footage looks speed up 2X.
This vid makes Monday a a lot better
Phil - you best! Greetings from Russia)
Those trails are rad!
Love the angle
The quiet Hub really makes a difference
I love how you never really use the bars to steer, but use your feet and hips and it looks sooo smooth.
Oh man these trails look awesome!
I have to say. Even though I ride BMX (street f/s) I love watching your videos. They have a totally different kind of adrenaline rush to them. I've thought about giving MTB a shot (more than just rolling through the woods near my house, but I'd eat it so bad on a mountain it wouldn't even be funny.

Hey phil thanks to you I am getting back into biking and I'm making my next bike the polygon siskiu n9 with 27.5 size wheels and size medium so I can flick it around thank you for posting
Good choice!
Awesome video ... dude you have zero fear 👀😆🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻
This is sick I live in Montpelier I gotta hit these up. Used to Nordic ski up Cochran's for a race every year
Hey Phil, I saw you went to Mt. Snow 6 years ago. You should come again and see the changes they have made!
Keep the work up Phil
this track loook pretty fun to run!!
Will have to check Vermont trails one day, just realized I live 2h away from your spot (living in Quebec!)
the wind noise sounds much quieter. Great video Phil. I just started a MTB channel of my own, and I hope to be like you one day!
Awesome flown and pace! ✊ Inspiring 🤜🤛🙂
That frame color is really growing on me. 🤩
Looks legit! Can't wait till we can travel!
Phil is back and we are stoked🤘
Clicked on this so fast
This field of view is so sick. You can see everything. Plus I’m so used to your GT enduro that this bike just look so much different.
Love your videos. Wish there was a way for you to do a speedometer overlay in them just so we can see the speeds you hit on the trails. Think it would be cool.
those trails look sick! might visit and use your video for direction
Guess I know where we are headed this weekend! lived here all my life and sorry to say never been to cochrans :( Given Saxon Hill plenty of my life so time for something new!
The way he controls his bike like it’s an extra body part is insane 😂
I think this summer is gonna be a season of exploring parks without lift access due to limit capacities... This looks sweeeeet
Phill: "Alright, I'm in fun mode."
Hailey: "Crack mode."
Me: "😂😂😂"
He's got such a wide camera angle that when I'm rollin it feels like I'm being caressed by phil😂😂
It's hard to get over how _green_ it is there.
Vermont looks so fun ! :D
yes it is
12:51-12:53 and that's skills with phil baby
I got to ride Bolton Valley on Saturday. it is some of the gnarliest terrain I have ever seen.
Can you do a bolton video? It would be pretty sick.
It's one of the few old school riding places around.
Beautiful bike
Yay new Phil bike content! I don't even care that you weren't at Highland haha. (this is just my opinion but I like the chin mount view better (although you probably weren't wearing a full face so it's all good))
Loving the wide angle lense
Are those maple sap lines criss crossing all over the place?
Yep! You can buy the syrup too it’s a local brand
Try Ascutney! There's some good jank out there
Your footage looks so good like this! I’ve got a Hero 8 Black, how do you get this fish eye effect? Also, where are you mounting your GoPro? Is this the chin mount on your full face?
I thinks for this he is using a 360 camera, not a hero 8. And yes he chin mounts his go pro but for this video it looks chest strapped.
@@johnnymcmurdo no, he isn't. It's the hero 8 w/super wide
I have to admit, this being my first legitimate camera, I am overwhelmed by the amount of settings there are. Watching numerous UA-cam videos has only made it worse.
@@bananasstuff3344 I'm with @Johnny324 on this one. During the slower climbs you can see the stitching of the 360 camera at the edges of the screen.
My home trails! Been sidelined with a broken leg and surgery since Feb, so getting in the woods isn't possible. I'm a VMBA/ Richmond Riders Club member and love seeing these trails so much. I hope you checkout Chamberlain! ..... and I wish you picked Visceral ;-)
I've done a ton of trail work on chamberlain, it's a great spot.
Dude you should visit hardack in st.albens vermont were I live or this other place called town forest
thunder mountain bike park just opened and forthill has some new features so maybe forthill video part 2?
I wish my local trails were this rad.
I know it’s the camera effect but I kept thinking that you were about to take out a maple line or two lol.
I'd love to see a tour of Bolton
yes please, that would be sick
every time I ride I feel like I have some skills, then watch Phil and realise I have basically no skills at all
Yeah dude, Im with you
So does smugglers notch have a lift park for bikes yet??? That place I remember from 20 years back thinking it would be epic to roll on a bike
Different angle? Different lens setting? Burlington, I use to hang out there. Would go down by the lake and hang out...
Different camera and setup. I’m playing around with this setup seeing what works. It’s way more functional for me and I like the results especially being able to see the bike move underneath.
Looking forward to hearing your opinions on 29inch wheels
Are people not getting my videos in their feed? That was literally my last video
@@SkillsWithPhil My bad, I must have missed it...
No not your fault if they aren’t being shared
