Sam Pilgrim or Bernard Kerr i reckon...Bernard just seems to be good at reading trails and jumps and is smooth as silk, and Sam can ride a unicycle with a buckled wheel over a road gap with his eyes closed like its normal haha
Matt should clean of the wax on the surf board and mix some grit sand into a clear coat of paint and paint the board to give it some grip and make it actually rideable and it won't ruin the look like grip tape would
I reckon Sam Pilgrim would be a good contender for hitting all lines first run Edit: got a lot of action on my comment in a rather quick time, hopefully Matt sees this🤞🏻would be proper cool to see them both ride the playground Thank you for all the appreciation 🤙🏻
@@BolivGaming they are definitely friends cause they used to make a lot of videos at Matt’s compound together but I just think they don’t really ride together much
Matt I'd love to see the intro drone clip be updated to the current progress of the playground. i know this would have been a lot of work but imagine if EVERY episode had an Up to date drone shot of the playground with you walking with the shovel
These videos are the best honestly matt, I love how you’re just having fun with you’re friends building jumps and messing around at the same time. Keep killing it!
Hello Matt/Ben, namer of "The Slab" here, ... Another tip from a longtime surfer: On that surfboard get some of that foam traction we use for our feet and clean that wax off and adhere some front foot surfboard traction pads on there! The grip on your tires will be amazing! 👍
Watching Matt guess at the Farenheit temperatures is hilarious! In a few episodes he has said "i think that's like a hundred degrees" and in both cases it was like mid 80's which would be perfect weather here in Texas. It's like when the interviewers at an event/race ask the contestants what tire pressures they are running and they say something in Bars and the interviewer has a look on their face like "I have no idea what that means".
@@Hamoner00 Most people who live in Texas live in very humid areas. For example, Houston currently has 81% humidity and Austin has 61% humidity. The drier western Texas is much less inhabited.
Seems like what you need is a Chill Deck; Something Shaded,with Misters, & Ice cold drinks... Overlooking this AMazing bike park... Loving the series I've been watching since the Backyard Series started... Keep up the Great work! This is Epic!
Blake from GMTB, his commentary would be, hilarious. Tom Cardy, the man is basically the equivalent to surgeon on a MTB, super techy stuff, would be awesome to see him try it... There is also, this other guy, toothless EnglishMan, guy has endless enthusiasm. Would probably ride all 3 lines on a EBike with flat tyres and a steering wheel instead of bars.
I mentioned it under surf board episode, but will try again here - you should try putting clear coat paint and while still wet sprinkle it with sand on the surf board, instead of wax. It will create good grip on the surface and will be very durable.
Ohhhh my god!!! How the HELL did Sam miss Daryl?!!! I thought we were about to get the first air ambulance to the play ground!! That was so sick!!! It’s so good seeing all the hard work pay off! Legends
31 Celsius is a nice cool day here in Phoenix Arizona, we regularly hit 46 celcius. And we don’t have loamy dirt, it’s all kitty litter and rocks that hold on to the heat. Love your hilarious commentary man, keep it up.
Been wanting to pick up a Helfare jersey for quite some time but with all the awesome options I couldn’t choose! Finally pulled the trigger on the new gray/red/black cadence jersey! Happy to support! Thanks for all the great content you’ve been putting out. Cheers from the US
I'm so glad spent so much time on Pipeline... I was always disappointed that the bridge hip/transfer got so ignored ever since first built. I love that transfer
I love the surfboard feature but I think a little wooden slightly curved wallride there would be perfect in the future you could even paint a wave on it lol
Daryl is so under rated - killer video today .. 87.8 in Fahrenheit but you can usually double the Celsius and add 24 you will be close Cant wait to get home and order helfare gear- Marin San Quentin 2022 (m)
Hey Matt can’t believe you were at goodwood like 2 months ago, I was watching the video of when you took over redbull UA-cam at goodwood! I live 10 mins from goodwood I’m so bummed I didn’t get to meet you mate!! Your literally my favourite MTB rider and athlete of all time just a genuine legend!
Matt you need to build a sign that says “fix your divot’s” Meaning when you case and make a divot you fix it Just like when a golfer misses a swing and takes a chunk of grass out of the ground making a divot
So glad u said your going to put grip tape on the board I've been mentioning it since I saw the surf board episode as have others. It should work pretty well love the videos keep it up!!!
Definitely a Technical line, but in all, this Playground is great , Just to get your reaction and tech down.. We see what your planning Matt.. Ha..🤙, keep um on there toes....👊..
18:23 Sam - Pilgrim could go through it on a microscooter. Matt- pilgrim could do it on a tandem… But he’d struggle on a dirt jumper… Gauntlet dropped In Texas we call that a “hold my beer” moment.
sick video, i love this place... 1. you should host a BMX jam here, Ben can invite his BMX buddies. everyone has to ride a BMX. 2. you and Jono need to do a 16" race through the main line. 3. why doesn't anyone use the cork screw anymore? 4. this place needs a sick wall ride, like a huge one that feeds out to different lines. 5. i love the playground!
What I would do on the surf board is paint it and add in sand as a mix in order to have some grip on the board would almost be like a skateboard surfboard and you could paint the helfare logo directly in the middle and have people who complete the line sign it with their signature.
Re: That longboard wallride: Try a set of longboard traction pads (front & rear)for the surfboard. It's pretty hard-wearing and grippy stuff and most likely a better solution than grip tape.
How about "The Starlet".Full speed, Transfer Right Off The Step-Down, Booooost Off the Quarter back, into the southern hemisphere and all the way to The vale, mateee.
I'm an Australian I'm just watching this going what are they talking about 30 degrees is an average day in Australia. But great video keep up the good work.
Looks so fun, if you changed the surfboard out for a wooden berm it looks like you could really carry the speed for more 🤘🏼 also would be sick to see Sam pilgrim there
30 degrees LOL. The summer average here in ATL is 32 and can reach into the upper 30's several days running. Factor in the terrible humidity, it feels 40+ for 3 months which is worse than 45 AUS dry heat IMO. It's like walking around in a bowl of soup.
It's been over 100F (37.7C) every day in SATX this month. I think we've had less than 5 days under 100 since June and probably going back to the last week of May. And the humidity kicks it up a notch too. We're used to high heat and humidity, but this is something else.
You can get different wax for different temperatures. You probably won't to put some tropical wax on the board for the summer. Maybe go down to some cool water wax in the winter 😊
You need to make a pump track right before you gap into the bunker from the landing of the step down. Could even do a couple rolls and a little kicker in.
To fix the surfboard you could try a harder surf wax made for different water temperatures. But this would still melt a bit in the sun. I would reccomend using a 50 grit sand and then a clear coat over the surfboard sprinkling 50 grit sand over when the clear coat is still wet. This will great an almost sandpaper like grip but less rough. should be pretty durable.
Sam Pilgrim or Bernard Kerr i reckon...Bernard just seems to be good at reading trails and jumps and is smooth as silk, and Sam can ride a unicycle with a buckled wheel over a road gap with his eyes closed like its normal haha

Sam Pilgrim and Bernard Kerr that would be very cool

Daryl is a criminally underrated rider
Skills on skills on skills!!
I have said this so often!!
having met and ridden with him I can confirm 🤘
@@samuelwoodhead6168 class. Yeah I met him at goodwood. Hes down to earth and can certainly ride a bike

30 thumbs up already, I reakon the challenge needs to be accepted, don't you. Sam?
Gotta feeling those thumbs up are gonna go up rather quickly!
I don’t think they’re friends
Exactly what I was thinking
@@BolivGaming they are definitely friends cause they used to make a lot of videos at Matt’s compound together but I just think they don’t really ride together much
I don’t even ride a bike, yet I get so excited for these episodes!!!
Good for you
Same
Why not give cycling try then

start riding it’s sick
Matt I'd love to see the intro drone clip be updated to the current progress of the playground. i know this would have been a lot of work but imagine if EVERY episode had an Up to date drone shot of the playground with you walking with the shovel
I think it's a nice reminder each time what this place used to look like but maybe an updated intro every 5 or 10 episodes would work
I think if they merged them together so it start with how it was and as it fly's in it changes to how it is now.
@@joshuaperry8729 yess
Leave the intro but show the progress of the place with a updated outro shot….
we need to get the drone following the riders!
Its crazy how that place is now a whole Dirtpark. Mad Respect man keep it up, love the series.
I’d love to see Pilgs show up and have a session! Matt and Pilgrim is quality content
wicKiD! My favorite 💕🤘🏿👽🇨🇦
Definitely Sam P...the views will hit the Sky!

Ohhhh my god!!! How the HELL did Sam miss Daryl?!!! I thought we were about to get the first air ambulance to the play ground!! That was so sick!!! It’s so good seeing all the hard work pay off! Legends
That was a matrix dodge right there!
At least they know they can land a chopper there ok.
matt: "What should we say the reward is?"
Daryl: " Grand "
I reckon he was serious 🤣
Hey Matt you said in episode one about going off the other end of the original roll in - would love to see a totally new line go there!
Episode 2, he mentioned making a right hip on the first jump as well. But I think the roll in going the other way would be a better idea.
I think that was the best video I've ever seen! Top job

another epic episode!
Well done!
was watching an order video of yours an got a notification an clicked on it. And now i am here
Holy s**t, that was so freaking entertaining. Thanks boys!!
Love ur vids👊🏼🙏 playground series is the sickest the chanel has ever been
I'm so glad spent so much time on Pipeline... I was always disappointed that the bridge hip/transfer got so ignored ever since first built.
I love that transfer
Ended clip of Daz and the laughter is GOLD 🤣👌✌️
100% Sam Pilgrim, and he would bring way more energy to the Playground than them two..
Rule #1 at the playground... You have to continue hitting them jumps until your skin turns the colour of the primo dirt!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I love the surfboard feature but I think a little wooden slightly curved wallride there would be perfect in the future you could even paint a wave on it lol
I like the surfboard because its so sketch tbh :)
@@bhew7409 😂
Epic video meant it was very expiring I can’t wait until the next episode of playground it will be awesome
This is a fake channel stop doing this to people
Love the jumps! You haven’t ridden the 180 berm though in a while!
True! I forgot too
They didnt hit the big air time right hip into the quarter pipe either

Matt you need to build a sign that says “fix your divot’s”
Meaning when you case and make a divot you fix it
Just like when a golfer misses a swing and takes a chunk of grass out of the ground making a divot
I work/have worked at a handful of courses and this is a perfect suggestion!
You case it, you brace it! Sounds like a solid policy
I agree
*repair your pitchmark would be better
So glad u said your going to put grip tape on the board I've been mentioning it since I saw the surf board episode as have others. It should work pretty well love the videos keep it up!!!
this looks ablolutley insane! never stop posting amazing content
Daryl singing ‘very good very niiiiice’ absolutely done me
I think Sam Pilgrim needs to give the playground a go
Definitely a Technical line, but in all, this Playground is great , Just to get your reaction and tech down.. We see what your planning Matt.. Ha..🤙, keep um on there toes....👊..
Pilgrim could get through it on a tandem!! 🤟
18:23 Sam - Pilgrim could go through it on a microscooter.
Matt- pilgrim could do it on a tandem… But he’d struggle on a dirt jumper…
Gauntlet dropped
In Texas we call that a “hold my beer” moment.
That was surprising, in this recent vid it seems like they're friends 🤷♂️ ua-cam.com/video/dPS_1EvXnX8/v-deo.html
Matt, I love the series so much and you have inspired me to make an MTB trail in my backyard!
Idea for the slippy surfboard, there are clear skateboard grip tapes that you can stick on and provide loads of grip! Love the video’s btw
What a spot this has turned into!
There's nothing like watching you guys crash and roll about laughing, proper entertainment!!
MAN I LOVE THIS SERIES.
sick video, i love this place...
1. you should host a BMX jam here, Ben can invite his BMX buddies. everyone has to ride a BMX.
2. you and Jono need to do a 16" race through the main line.
3. why doesn't anyone use the cork screw anymore?
4. this place needs a sick wall ride, like a huge one that feeds out to different lines.
5. i love the playground!
matt for a future video my build suggestion is to dig a dirt bowl into the ground so it would be perfect for all sorts of tricks
Great stuff lads. I think its time to add another roller to make it easier to get back up the landing to hit the quarter.
What I would do on the surf board is paint it and add in sand as a mix in order to have some grip on the board would almost be like a skateboard surfboard and you could paint the helfare logo directly in the middle and have people who complete the line sign it with their signature.
Re: That longboard wallride: Try a set of longboard traction pads (front & rear)for the surfboard. It's pretty hard-wearing and grippy stuff and most likely a better solution than grip tape.
it is damn near impossible to get a grip pad to actually stick after you waxed up that area
surfboard wax never fully comes off the surfboard, the pads would be gone in a week
@@natebutler7996 heat gun and a plastic auto body scraper. It sucks but it can be done.
How about "The Starlet".Full speed, Transfer Right Off The Step-Down, Booooost Off the Quarter back, into the southern hemisphere and all the way to The vale, mateee.
I want to see Pilgrim actually do it on a tandem...🤣🤣🤣
I live in arizona in the USA and it gets up to 54 degrees Celsius 130 degrees some years
13:58 not a single word out of San was understood in that moment
For extra grip on the surfboard put a layer of clear paint with 80 grit sand, so you can still see the board clearly but you’ll have grip
That is exactly what I have been saying
I'm an Australian I'm just watching this going what are they talking about 30 degrees is an average day in Australia. But great video keep up the good work.
jamie watching the condition of the jumps after this -> 😭😭😭😡😡😡
but this video was good as, keep it up
Maybe add a air bag step up or a lot more wooden features like berms and kickers.👍🏻
Best ever, loving the carnage boys
Brilliant vid guys, loved it, idk if this was on purpose or not, but for some reason "subscribe" being spelt wrong at the end cracked me up
I seriously hope no-one falls for that lmao
Looks so fun, if you changed the surfboard out for a wooden berm it looks like you could really carry the speed for more 🤘🏼 also would be sick to see Sam pilgrim there
45 degrees is a thing in OZ, LOL. Epic video/ Series thanks!
🚨🚨🚨INVITE SAMMMMMMM PILGRIMMMMMMMM🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥. And TOM CARDY
That last clip was awesome
Get Blake Samson there. Might not make it through but would be a fun video
Yoooo you got them all to eat crap 😂. I don’t think Ben’s ever been so happy to be behind the camera 😂💪🏻

Big boosty flowy jump line line next - tech good, but nothing beats good flow when it comes to jumps.
Tom isted should ride that quater the way he did airs at cwx was insane i ve watched it live and its insane
such a great video laughed so much 😂😂
You can get different wax for different temperatures. You probably won't to put some tropical wax on the board for the summer. Maybe go down to some cool water wax in the winter 😊
Sam Pilgrim could do it with a steering wheel and plastic tubing for tires.
Sam Pilgrim would shred at the playground
Think the consensus is that we need to see Sam Pilgrim there, definitely would be EPIC !
need more riding videos at these trials
Matt is so generous. Keeps giving lives and second chances 😂
sam pilgrim sounds ready for a shredie
wow, i love this! max f. and sam p. would do it probably
Your hat is sick Matt!
It’s so hot it’s like 30 degrees 😂🤣🤣
Yes I can confirm in Australia we do indeed dig dirt jumps in 45 degree heat.
Haha yes 31 degrees in Australia is a cool day for us 😂
It's been 108 to 112 the past few weeks here in texas lol
87 sounds great.
I’d love to see Sam pilgrim ride these jumps
'I could taste the naan' has to be one of the best one liners on this channel 😂
Fpv drone follow shots would be amazing for this place!
Hahaha! 30° is 86°F - Southern California rider who rides in Arizona and Utah - 86 is slightly warm
The best crew!
We need Sam Pilgrim on these jumps!
what an effort by Sam! but he did try to mount the surf board 🤷 top bombing lads 🙌
You need to make a pump track right before you gap into the bunker from the landing of the step down. Could even do a couple rolls and a little kicker in.
For sure need get Sam Pilgrim out there!! LOL he's master of the weird riding
