@@remymetailler yeah that's certainly called your bluff there eh! Could have been worse that jaw protection could have easily failed on a full face at that impact there not motor grade and most probably just on the edge of the acceptance
Remy get some codes for EU people !
Use your own code for a full face helmet...
That's what I like about Remy: Owning his mistakes, showing both wins and fails.
Plus, a very positive and nice person.
I'm pretty sure most mountain bikers show the fails they get on camera, it is very directly part of the sport as far as i've seen. Poor jordan got messed up on whistler the opening weekend and he's gotten really lucky, 5 ribs, a messed up lung and bruised kidney and liver. The MoFo got back home after only two days on the hospital, dude's made out of steel. It was a really similar crash to the one on this video except he hit the tree directly instead of with the bars
next video title : The reason Why I prefer riding in a full face Helmet...
Beat me to it
He was literally just saying that in the last video when he was at specialized 🤦🏻♂️ You waited too long my dude!
Best comment I have ever seen 😅
Nah
Lol
Thank you for sharing, for transparency, and helping any rider to become a better one.
Took the words straight out of my mind, this comment deserves more likes ;)
6 weeks removed from fracturing my clavicle and rotator cuff and Remy’s breakdown and analysis is super helpful …and rings some bells…🤟🚵♂️
you people and your nice comments...unbelievable
Man Remy, really glad you are ok. Thank you for making this video. You are a fantastic ambassador and mentor for this sport. I appreciate you and all of your videos because of your positivity and incredible abilities. Recover well brother.
Thank you, I will
I think you could show the damaged helmet, how it saved your head from a serious injury. Thanks for the video, get well soon!
4:45
It’s always complacency that gets us all, from noob to pro.
glad you're ok, rémy. thanks for showing us that even great riders can make mistakes and it's not just us.
I appreciate that!
Agree ! Thank you Remy, you exemplify humility and are a great role model for riders
Man I know exactly this feeling because it happened to me 8 weeks ago. Went down a rock roll and slipped on a root after, which made me smack into a small tree. All of my weight and momentum went into my ulna, which of course, broke it. Was two weeks before our Madeira trip so had to cancel. It's a part of the sport you have to accept happens sometimes! Thanks for showing this side of the sport and helping people ride more consciously, Remy!
I'm so relieved that you are ok Remi, It just shows what can happen in a split second to one of the best riders on the planet !!! You are so professional, so very talented, an awesome rider & a true gentleman, love your channel ! If I came back over to Canada I would love some coaching from yourself, I know this is not probably possible but it would be lovely !! 100% respect from me & as I said I'm so glad that you are ok & fully on the mend., I have been riding for many years & truly love my MTB & going back to Ski teaching next winter (Canadian qualified(Level 2 )
Damn! That was a straight shot to that tree. Glad you are OK...A combination of very lucky and possibly your experience as a rider. Wish you a speedy recovery.
I'm really glad that you're doing well!
And thanks for the close-up impressions.
I have my own rule for wearing helmets: if there are proper jumps, drops or roots, then I wear a full-face helmet.
I didn't follow this rule once and almost paid for it with my teeth.
The tree has a new name “Remy tree”. Get well soon bud. All the best.
Been waiting for this since the short 🤘 Glad you’re ok (enough) to ride another day!
Sir, You are definitely Old school ; You have manned up to what went wrong, while expertly and calmly showing us what not to do, so that we could stay Safe, thank you! Godspeed.
Well shared! so important for us mere mortals to see the behind the scenes preparation, risk calculation and, ultimately how even the best in the world can end up on the wrong side of it. Easy to forget this when I focus on the highlight reels! Remy is an incredible rider!
So happy no major injuries 🎉🎉. Place looks absolutely amazing 😊
Remy I wish you a speedy recovery thank God it didn't end worse
Gulley looks back to form after the broken leg. Thank goodness you are on your feet and back on the bike. This part of the sport sometimes, even when you know the trail.
Remy hope your ok after what looked a painfull off. I am so pleased you accepted it was rider error rather than trying to blame something else. it just goes to show even top pro's get it wrong. keep up the great work and sharing the love of mtbing
Oh man, watched that through my fingers. So glad you're okay. I've implemented so many of your tactics... I'm braver and safer. Looking forward to next year's Norway footage.
Hey Remy, I hope you heal fast. Thank you for sharing so that everyone understands even pros have crashes. I hope your teeth are ok, if not I practice in Seattle and would be glad to help.
Zut alors Rémy! Thank you for sharing this, you are an exceptional rider and hearing your story about risk management really helps us average riders! I took a spill once going slow, on a trail I'd ridden 100 times, went over the bars, I was wearing a full face helmet, just missed my eye and ended up with two deep gashes on my face from a big sharp rock! It's a technical line but I never expected that, and luckily I was with my friend who carried my bike out, I had to hold pressure to keep from bleeding all over, that was the longest mile walk in my life. That was by far the worst spill I've taken, it wasn't on the fastest or most difficult lines, it wasn't a jump or a drop, I'm a careful rider - it was the second bike spill in my life, I took my own training wheels off when I was 4 haha There is risk in our sport, and it's great to get advice from the best Rémy : ) This is my favorite MTB channel, Merci Beaucoup Rémy
Wow, that was a solid hit. Thank you for posting because it was a good reminder about being vigilant and careful.
Glad ur ok RM. Wishing u a quick and full recovery.
Glad your not seriously injured. Kudos for posting and showing that it goes wrong sometimes
Despite the crash, this is an amazing video - what gorgeous country up there! Thanks for taking us to Norway 🙂
Hi Remy, the bike and go pro are just items. They can be replaced. There is only 1 Remy. This could have ended more bad. You are a big inspiration to me and so so many others. Thank you for also sharing this video.
I wish you a good and fast recovery.
All the best
Greetings from the Netherlands William
William 😎
What led up to this I have seen many times, others any myself do. You get into such a hyper mood on a trail you are not familiar with. That you forget safety and what can go wrong. It feels amazing until something happens. And it''s always when with others - as they help get that stoke mode going. Of course we should ride with others and get stoked - it's awesome. But we must calm ourselves down and remember the dangers. Sometimes get the odd warning you are overcooking it, but often not! Here when you did it on your own, that was a big step up in risk. Now following experienced riders of that trail. You were having such a great time you forgot that. We need to maybe set an alarm to beep every 20 mins to remind us to take stock of risks! And think before each ride what each risk could be for that.
Get well soon! I completly understand about jetlag/sleep/being tired. For me, it's much worse than being drunk
All my nasty falls, had all that same issue.
Stopped riding when tired/fatigue/no sleep/jetlag, and things transformed to really positive riding
happy you're ok Remy, and we could learn from you a lot also to recognize our mistakes.
This was excruciating to watch. Ouchers. Glad you are OK. Thanks for passing your skills along to others and for the the interesting video.
Hi Remy, I have been watching your videos for a few years now, I really respect your attitude towards the sport and I find you a constant source of inspiration to keep riding even after I get the fear into me after big crashes. I hope you recover quickly and and can enjoy the rest of your trip. I hope to ride with you one day. Much love Brother.
Fast recovery wish you mate ! Keep going 🖤🤘🤘.
I just fell off my BMX on asphalt trying to manual. Fell straight back and dropped hard on my ass. I’m 54. It felt brutal. But it was the shame that really stung. I know better than to do that. I shouldn’t be riding a BMX at my age… all the negative self talk. It means a lot to see somebody like Remy make a mistake and use it as a way to talk about risk management.
Glad it wasn't worse Remy. It is amazing how fast things can go sideways. Heal up and keep making great vids. Love the channel.
Good point about the camel back. Lot's of people changing to fanny packs these days, but I like the protection of something on my back. If you end up on your back from a fall, the last thing you want is sharp rock or stick poking you on your spine. Good backpacks (I have a Dakine) keep the pack separated from your back with a ventilation space. If I'm low on water and there isn't much else in your bag I blow some air into the bladder, to give me protection in case of a fall.
Good thing you got away with minor injuries and some destroyed equipment only - when trees grab you, it can end badly.
Makes for a great PSA though. I really suck at riding new tracks blind and it takes me many laps to get up to speed. Some are just better at that, but others try to force it. To see that this can happen to an exceptional rider can serve as a reminder and warning for all of us less gifted riders to sight before ride and when we arent on our A-game, tone it down.
I;m glad you're okay Remy that was a gnarly hit. The gopro footage of it was viceral, i was scared for you. Also, good on you for taking responsibility and highlighting your mistake of bombing a trail off the bat without doing your typical site lap and progression runs to build up to speed and feel the trail, your bike, and how you're feeling first. I think you do an awesome job showing how to logically, systematically, and SAFELY hit new lines or features and build up to things progressing as you go! I follow a similar practice as well.
Glad your good Remy. Heal up, Lost a brother hitting a tree a month ago. We do not need to lose any more.
Thanks for this great video, this place looks amazing. Glad you're OK (so does the tree 😅), and thanks for showing and explaining how crashes can happen to anyone and how to analyse them.
This style of riding and trails is what mtb is all about to me. That's why I love your channel. I wish I could get back on the bike but have a concussion that refuses to heal. Maybe next year 😅. I hope you wear full face moving forward!
Mate...that was bruuuuuutal!!. Commented it on instagram already. Glad u r alright after such a huge slam! 🙏🙏fair play u were f***** lucky!
I’ve had this exact same crash and felt it for weeks. Even broke the same brake. It changed the way I ride by not sending it before scouting. Glad you’re ok
Happens to the best of us bro! Glad you walked away from it as you did! I've done exactly the same thing and ended my biking for 15 years till this year I went and got a new emtb! I smashed my collar bone in 3 and shot abit through the skin, ripped my arm muscle off the bone and dislocated my right shoulder! I tried mtb a few times but arm kept popping out when pulled front up! It was like a cartoon in my mine thinking my arms still on the bars😂 I have it pinned now so fingers crossed this years a new adventure!
That was horrible Remy! You were really lucky really as it could have been so much worse! Please remember you are only human and when we fuck up we learn not to, and excel, sorry you had to go through this and hope you feel less sore soon! because that was a hell of an impact!💥👍😁👌
Man! That was gnarly. Lucky you walked away from this. It's bad that you've crashed but it's educational to us normal riders! Keep shredding Rémy✌️
Glad you're bounced right back scary for sure! Moment of impact, thoughts creeps up and then you realized you're okay :). Happy riding, Salut!
Cool to see you and Geoff shred some norwegian trails.
Thanks for sharing this video and like everyone else says you're such a positive person and a great ambassador for Maintain biking!! here is great reason to always where a Full face helmet!!
Glad you are OK!
Ouch! 😱😬🤕 Bro, I love your videos because of your awesome riding and cool demeanor you always have, but if I'm being totally honest, I often feel my sphincter clench watching you hit some of the gnarly features you do. That was such an epic crash that I seized up when you hit that tree. Remy, get well soon bro and hope nothing is permanently damaged other than the phone. Hope to see you riding again happy and well soon. And big props to all the other riders that came to assist you. Love the mountain biking community for stuff like that. ❤️👍🚵
Super glad you're okay, mistakes happen to everyone don't beat yourself up. Count your blessings and learn from mistakes is what I always tell people.
All the Remy videos I've watched and I don't think I've ever seen him crash (not that I remember anyway)... Still, Remy is a machine!!! The man is a legend!
Hope you get well soon!!
I say this with love: complacency has killed more pilots than any enemy.
I’ve been mountain biking for 35 years, and in all that time my worst accidents were ones just like this. A moment of overconfidence, a dash of hubris, and a pinch of ‘GoPro Gusto’ and VOILA’! Bad crash. I’m VERY happy you are ok and that you’ll walk away from this one. Please be sure to write down what you learned, as it’s easy to forget (ask me how I know! 😂)
My worst crash (so far) was someone filming me on a jump I'd hit a 100 times. Completely not focused, overshot it to flat nose down, OTB. Incredibly only scrapes. That made me decide showing off on footage is something I dont need in my riding.
정말 다행입니다~~지구 반대편에 있는 팬으로서 항상 응원합니다 ~
이 영상에 나오는 여행지는 라이더에겐 최고의 환상적인~~여행장소 이군요
죽기전에 꼭한번 그곳을 여행하고싶어요 !
Glad that you came out of that get-off without any serious injuries. Second - that food looks AMAZING.
Glad your okay again, also love the fact that your head was clear enough to go right into why and what happened in that crash
Remy is a real one for publishing this.
You're such a mentally strong person Remy. Positive and humble too.
And man, those mountains are spectacular. The MTB community in Norway did a great job. 👍🏼
Wow, that was a hellish impact! Thank goodness your neck didn't snap! Brutal.
I"m so glad you are ok and were able to walk away from that... it could be been so much worse. Stay safe out there Remy!
Glad you're ok Remy but this video can teach you how important is to get more body armor for mistakes like this one! And of course do not push to the limits into a new place is a key to remember for future reference. Ride safe fellas! 💪
Glad you’re okay, could have been way worse. Always great when you can ride another day, thanks for sharing the bad along with the good.
SO glad that you were to sort of walk away from that one. Take good care RemDog!
Crashing happens, even to the best of us. We all have off days. Props for recognizing where the fault lays. Most wouldn’t do that and would find fault elsewhere. Heal up.
Crazy crash to just walk away from. Glad you’re alright! Love the bounce back!
glad youre ok Remy, rest up and get back at it. live and learn dude. all good. be grateful.
Get well soon! Ride with protection and safely.
You commented everything yourself, or other commenters here - what I witnessed and wanted to mention is the company you had around the incident. Cool people, kudos!
And you took like a champ - self-criticism is a virtue.
It was tough man! Thanks God you're alright.
Filming and riding can make you not focused. I totally understand that you wanna show us the best of what you can do, which is why your content is awesome, but don't forget yourself in the process!
the slick rocks, the place with the small lake and tents, I was therer too! Was really cool to ride :) Good memories are coming back
F man. Glad you are ok. Happens to all of us. Get well soon. Sometimes these things help us get back and be even better. 💪💪💪
Glad to see you ok after that incident! I know you are a pro rider but please be safe out there so you can keep making awesome videos.
Aside from the tackling trees, Norway looks amazing. Wanna go.
first off I;m glad your good. Second, that place looks amazing. Last those ridge drops are next level sketchy, but sooo unbelievable .
That was scary. Glad you're ok.
Glad you are okay after that crash you are a very good rider and unfortunately things happen that you cannot control
Of all your video, this is the first one I see a crash. Glad to see you standing. I’m sure you’re not ok, so I’m not going to assume you’re ok.
Hell of a place to plant a tree! Glad you avoided any major injury.
Holy shit, hard impact. Hope you recover soon and are not not injured to seriously. Your face is looking pretty bad. Oh man, wishing you the best. Regards from Germany🤙
Remy, wow you have to slow down on uncharted territory.
The drop was a bad situation. Glad you were not broken.
Take care and stay well
Great humility. Be well.
🫣Unbeliebable crash and even more unbelievable, you came off with relatively relatively light injuries! Recover soon - I'm looking forward to your next videos. Best, Claus
Most chilled reaction, on such a big crash i‘ve ever seen 😅
So glad you're ok. Wow, one miscalculation. It happened to me 7 weeks ago, broken rib, shattered hand, surgery and lots of rehab. Top quality trail helmet saved my head
🇺🇸Brother Remy, please rest, enjoy the spoils of riding, vacay maybe ??? I had mines to not recently but awhile ago, nine fractured ribs, missed Jump receiving end but, No one, can ride like you, reLAx cuz . . ..we want to continue to see ya❤️much Love & Peace may be unto your Home 💖 🇺🇸
fiou, man c'est scary mais au moins, tu es en vie, sans conséquence grave, ni fracture! So happy you are good! Le iPhone c'est chiant, mais le moins grave d'une certaine façon! C'est poche mais j'espère que cela va rappeler à tous les rider de RESTER CONCENTRÉ EN TOUT TEMPS. Je le rappel sans arrêt à mon garçon...
I love your way of security but sometimes one are just unlucky. Wish you a speedy recovery.
Get well soon Rémy, ride safe!
Lucky escape, I fell off a bike at a mere 8 kph, facing uphill. Side of my head hit the ground, my brand new helmet took most of the damage as did my face. 15mins later I collapsed on the gondola on my way back down, then fainted again at the bus stop ending up in hospital for the night. Suffering from dizziness, I was stuck at the resort for an extra week as was unable to travel. It took me about 3 months to fully recover. What I learned is; it’s not how hard you fall but where you are hit. Take care
Glad u r alright man... My heart skipped the moment u hit that tree.
Get well soon, Remy.
Bon rétablissement et merci pour toutes tes vidéos 👍🏽💪🏽.
I hope you get better soon Remy!
Glad to see you are ok. Great video.
Even the BEST make mistakes. Glad too see you're good!! That was rally serious...
I swear, I always learn so much from Remy. Even his mistakes turn into a classroom for us 😂. Stay up loco! 🤘🏽
Hope for good recover Rémy ! I'm glad you're kinda ok...
