The Berm Peak Ranger Station on Airbnb 🏡 airbnb.com/h/rangerstationbre...
The whale tail has been in the works for a while, but I haven't had the chance to build it until now. A lot of things needed to be in place, like the landing, a better roll-in, that kicker, not to mention a working Kevin Jump with a wood berm after it. Thanks to Kevin, Brian, and Alexander for helping out on this build. They all have UA-cam channels:

Best words of encouragement “it’s ok you can steer”
That was savage
On par with "Just grab it, it's a jug!"
Seth’s voice makes me feel better about myself
Max Thomas same
What do you mean
Omg yes
That has two meanings
Why?
Kevin: *thinking, thinking, thinking... *
Everybody: He probably wants to optimize something and thinks about how this thing is gonna work.
Kevin: It'S dEfInItEly A WHALE
Should have inserted dial up sounds
This is super
Jaxe Maestro I have a channel if you want to check it out
@@lakesidelaunchers4307 no shit
@@itsyehippohd8312 say ur sorry
we have to appreciate that the whale makes a horse sound.
I thought you were actually talking about the ramp when u ride it soo I was being sooo quit to hear it and then realised he cowboy lasowed the ramp side
What would a whale sound like
ra123 bo AAAAAAAAAEEEEEEEEEUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH
‘ you can tell how satisfying it is by the sound’
I felt that
Me too...
Woahhhhhhhh
We all could
I think you heard that
I could listen to it all day
I love seeing the gator’s suspension go back up when the dirt comes off
He did that once unloading an almost literal ton of lumber out of the Honda, was a great clip.
Same lol
Me too
Alex “See how far left I am”
Seth “ It’s ok you can steer”
🤣
Googled “whale tail”
Not what I was expecting.
Not disappointed, but not what I was expecting.
Please advise.
I looked it up too mainly whales and hookers
regret
But if you search whale tail mtb
On and off feature
🤣🤣🤣
Whether your the first or the last person to view Seth’s vids, We all have to agree that they are never a let down, keep it up Seth.👍👍
lewis page yassss
U're right dude!
Every video he makes is a banger. Berm Creek was a genius idea. Win win for everyone! And with spring coming this is just getting started. Wait til a year from now!
There probaly Wong be a last person to wacht a seth video or any other video
The only let down is that they should be longer
Imagine being one of the the friends Seth randomly calls up like “Hey come help me with my backyard bike park”, oh the things I would dooooo
I'd give my left nut for that call right now given the current state of the world
It would be awesome
When compacting dirt with a plate vibrator it’s helpful to compact every 6” lift of dirt. Doing that will help to eliminate settling and soft spots over time.
I came here to say this as well
What if you are only use to 8" inches...
@@misterm3007 then compact it at 4" or 8". Its not an exact science. Just don't compact at more than 12".
@@misterm3007 everybody says it's 8" but in reality it's 6"
Scott Mazerolle r/woooosh
Can we acknowledge how talented and amazing Seth is. A awesome guy born in Long Island, completely devoid of mountain bike trails. Then Florida, and then to Asheville where his channel became huge! Now to berm peak, where there’s never a dull moment. I want to acknowledge all the subscribers that are currently watching and Seth, one of the coolest guys out there who developed an awesome channel that we all dream about. Seth, you are amazing and we all love you and would do anything for you! P.S, thanks for signing my hat at the Sedona mountain bike festival! Stay safe at home, and keep doing the impossible!
"It's a whale for sure"
**inserts horse sound**
or dolphin sounds
Bc Kevin tried to ride it like a horse ,but nice joke I liked yo comment
The whale is the horse of the sea, everyone knows that.
you ride whales like you ride horses that's what the blowhole is for
@@thekenmatax18 wouldn't that be a seahorse?
I should be doing online school because schools canceled but instead I’m watching Seth
That's what all of us is actually doing!Skipping school.
Justin.s Vlogs yup 👍🏻
Me tooo
Same
Yup, I think that is all of us
Imagine having a back yard so big you can just go for a walk in it
Thats normal here in Norway
victor Grøstad in my town you can’t have a house unless the property is 4 acres or larger
@@mexico7673 or a bike ride
More like a bike ride
Imagine having a backyard
Gotta be one of my favorite UA-cam videos on the site.
"dirt merchant, no not that dirt merchant. The dirt merchant, like a dude with dirt inventory." You tricked all of us!!! Hahahaha
I’m going insane
I’m going insane
I’m going insane

I’m going insane
I wouldn't mind being in quarrintine with that backyard
Sameeee
Same
Same
I live in the middle of no where so I love building trails while in quarrintine
Me neither bc i could get some exercise in
This line is getting better and better!
I found this off trending and it is waaay more interesting than I thought it would be
The *WHALE TAIL* is *Berm Creek's* best addition. For the first time it's starting to feel like a bike park. And how bout *ALEX* getting *INSANELY* better over the past year.
Been binging STS and he's improving so much
Seth’s backyard is slowly going to turn to a commercial grade bike park.
SAKITHA GURUGE ikr
Yep
Yessir
SAKITHA GURUGE lol
I would pay for it
I don’t understand how this channel has not got like 10 million subs yet or even 5 million, the content is amazing, great edits, it’s not cringe and Seth is not doing this just for the UA-cam money, he actually wants to do this and boi is it entertaining! Keep up the good work!
miko foin so true lol
Haha. So much for keeping it chill and avoiding the hospital from sketchy jumps. That didn’t last long but I’m glad it didn’t. Stay safe and good work guys.
The way the whale tail just shoots you into the berm is so satisfying
Like everyone else during this time: Seth’s getting those DIY jobs done
Except mine is in Animal Crossing
This might be the best feature on Berm Peak. It's so smooth and satisfying! Super sick Seth!
Please keep up the content, it’s keeping me sane in these trying times! I look forward to the next installment
Mom: Online School.
Me: It’s Friday, Seth comes first.
Michael MTB school work always comes first
Max Hansen in this case I disagree
Xaaaaaaa nice
Max Hansen nope
Max Hansen yes sir
I love how over time when he gets new tools and names them the videos just start to sound like “I used the gitter to move the whacker packer over by the shovel canon”
Yeah it's his own slang. I bet once the comment section will be all like that too
Seeing Seth, Brian and Alex together in these tough times just makes me happy :)
I missed Alex's stokedness! And what a beautiful trail feature! I loved that you showed how it sounds. So satisfying. Thank you, Seth!
“Its ok.. you can steer”
-Seth 2020
wait what part does he say that again ?
@@salsaproductions6286 when Alex hits the whale
@@salsaproductions6286 8:50
I can't believe how fast that small line is. It's crazy fun looking. Double jump. BERM. Jump leaning the other way. BERM. It's really coming together now, lads
1:11 yo they playing with the big boy Lincoln logs
NOW that you fixed the drop-in, I`m (stoked) ready to try it!
it looks like FUN
Seth, during this time of much needed mtbing, you are the only thing that is entertaining me as everything in my area is closed. Stay safe and keep shredding:)
Normal outros: Riding with chill music in the background
Seth: * packs dirt *
Louis Siméon with ... modern pop??????
I want to know how he is handling the liability of having his YT fellows in there. He is opening himself up to some serious liability if anyone gets hurt, especially using regular wood. That is going to be construed as negligence. Though I have no doubt he makes them sign a release of liability, I would not want to have defend that in a court room.
@@tarstarkusz None of them are going to take him to court if they get hurt there. First of all, their reasonable people, so they know it's their own faullt if they ride it and get hurt. They're all friends anways. Second, that would be a terrible PR move for any of them. Imagine one of them taking Seth to court because they broke their arm on his backyard trails. People would be outraged.
No one will take him to court, that's just stupid.
tarstarkusz dude, if they’re quarantining together, there’s no way in hell anyone would sue. They’re close friends in real life. Aside from that, they’ve been riding and jumping for years and understand the risks and responsibilities of shredding these features.
That place is getting so sweet and flowy. Nice work. 👍
Watched old videos after I've seen him ride it several times feels like time travel
Top 10 saddest sentences in life:
"Thanks for riding with me today"
Me: "Its over :("
MaxTheDude he says it at 10:43
That's only one phrase?
Donny bikelife FOX I cant tell if your joking
Indeed. He suggests maxing out at 8 to 12 minutes. This guy with this following should be doing 30 min films. [Says a guy laying in his bed wishing he lived in an amazing house with 2 dogs and a bike trail... ]
@@TREVONBACH Yeah but its much more work for him to edit it all and his upload schedule would stretch like atleast twice the time we have to wait for a new video now. (And yeah its my absolute dream too live in a house like that. But the thing that i dream about the most is a full suspension since im rocking a hardtail rn.)
So no one gonna talk about how good his edits are too
Get used to the high production value of the mountain biking community
My kids and I love watching your videos for your great production value and storytelling, keep the videos coming!
Wow that line is so smooth it just all links perfectly and it’s really well dialed in good job guys
“See how far left I am... “ “it’s okay you can steer” 😂😂
I read this comment the same exact time he said they in the video 😂
Uuu copied
Mustafa Kirman Xedpz
@@coltonboulanger8328 Man don't read comments while watching Seth's videos. They're way too enjoyable for that kind of stuff.
@M i k e you can’t miss a second of a seths bike hacks video
For me this was the first video where I was like
“Wow this actually looks like a whole bike park coming togather!”
Great work Seth. I always can wait to watch your vids! Hope you and your family are safe.
👊🤟
Just wanted to say seth your videos gave me the courage to build a couple of small jumps for my mountain bike! So thankyou!!!!!!
I don't even have a mountain bike, but I love watching this channel. MTB is my next purchase!
Imagine what this trail will be like in a year
It will literally all be wood features
There would be a sign saying 100% wood
100% wood ride
It will literally be a bike park
Drew Robison I have a channel if you want to check it out 👍thanks
Seth: we cut logs so they stick together
me an intellectual: you made LincolnLogs
Same dude I was waiting for this comment
Anyone else wish they could build like Seth??? Sick video man!! Always love the content and humor
Enjoying following you all with your endeavors fun to watch keep it coming
Seth quarantined his friends at his house so that he didn’t have to do all the work
Brayden’s Bike Hack’s and Builds he’s a genius!
Strategic
Genius for sure
Coronavirus: *exists*
Normal Mountain bikers: “Aw man, all the trails are gonna be closed!”
Seth: *”Observe, peasants”*
None are closed tho 😂😂
There's nobody around the trails anyway so why anyone not go there?
Lol
Do remember seth has said that this was filmed before the lockdown
@@masongt6546 mine are
Itis kind of crazy how far you came, your production quality has gone through the roof, and now you are on trending!
Was looking forward to seeing this come out, since brian teased it. Glad you guys are staying safe and sane. Soon, life will get back to normal.
5:18 “it’s definitely a whale” * proceeds to ride it as a horse *
9:25 thats my kind of ASMR... the sound of the tyres, dirt and wood was so satisfying.
That looks awesome. Artistic rhythm of construction and bicycling coming together. Seriously awesome work! 😁👍
This trail build project is awesome!!
Seth next video: I recreated A-Line in my backyard!
"and bobo is here now too" All the mtb guys out in that region seem to be heading to the compound now lol
Hey Seth! You inspired to me to start mountain biking! I love your channel! (I’m 11 years old and i ride trails!)
Best addition to the trail so far!! I love this channel❤️. Keep it up!!
Nailed it!! That line looks really dialed. Nice work guys.
This trail system went from:
"OH BOY I wanna try that!"
to
"No thanks! Ill just watch and have a beer!"
really quick XD
SSBM_Wrath my drunk friendddd dddddd
You'll feel different after that beer
7:51 - 7:59 Brian is just thinking ‘yeah I’ll watch and I’ll let you do that one’ haha. Great feature 👍
Sickest obstacle you built!!! Keep on keeping on fellow rider’s!!!!!
Rip Drama... you will always be in my heart. You were always the first to see if he was ok. You always followed him no matter what you harms to do. If it was jumps or steep hills. You would still do whatever you could to be with your pal.
Finally, the highlight of my week
I'm waiting on the massive wall ride coming from the berm after the Kevin jump. Especially after seeing the speed you get from that berm.
This channel has renewed my faith in what UA-cam can be used for... I love your shit Seth!
Liking the new backing tracks, especially when they're building the berm
I am really early, thank you for not making corona linked content and giving us the entertainment we need in this period
" I'm too far left "
" Its ok, you can *steer* "
Seth you are one of my only sources of entertainment right now.
NICE!! I've always wanted to build a whale tail and this has convinced me that it is what I'm going to add to the trail I'm building in my yard.
8:01 I thought you were gonna break your collar bone again, that music sounded scary.
Freaking rad! Exponential increase of flow. The whale tail sounds soooo nice.
That's a seriously technical line! Nice riding/building guys!!
This jump looks and sounds so smooth.
It’s 11pm but who cares Seth uploaded and now I feel perfect
Seth’s already has his group now he just needs to start thinking business because he could really start bike trails
I just bought my first mountain bike, a diamond back overdrive, because of your videos I am a huge fan and you inspired me to get into the craft
I’d been looking at bikes for the past couple months and last night I found a returned overdrive on amazon for $315 and I bought it I’m super excited and I just want to thank you for inspiring me
More! I want more of this awesome trail building and learning to do and ride... things stuff!
Seriously, keep up the good work and have fun!!
I would love to try out your trails (and probably break some of my bones)...
5:22 Pretty sure that’s the wrong sound for a whale Seth 😂
It's a horse-whale! 🤟🏻😜
Would have been awkward to have sounds of humpbacks with Kevin all straddled up though
Seth 2050: lets's built a chairlift
2021!😉😂😂😂
Man, what a place to self-isolate. As always, jealous of what you've got going on.. Keep it up!!
That looks really fun! Nice work!
👍
Sketchiest thing about this are Kevin’s construction flip-flops!
You're just asking for a disaster when cutting these curves with a circular saw. Be careful Seth, UA-cam needs you.
I learn so much wood working from this channel for so many different projects, I sometimes forget its about biking!
Man that looks super smooth!!
No one:
Kevin riding a whale
[USERNAME] 🤦🏻♂️
*horse sounds*
I haven’t seen it and I know it’s going to be a god vid
Nice job Seth, I have always looked up to you and strived to do what you have done
Its so satisfying the way that seth plants so perfectly
Who else is watching this and remembering when he first started the trails? 😢👍🏼
Seths backyard is becoming the Whistler of the Southeast 😂
im always so hyped to ride after watching these videos, thank you so much for the inspiration
Damn I Missed that dudes Excitement!!! Alex you da man!! So Glad you guys are chillen...well sorta!! Stay safe guys.
