For about a minute following 8:10, it's just so technical, so strenuous and so challenging. Real arm-pumping stuff. Nice effort. I haven't been able to di it without stopping or even just putting a fot down.
Epic run mate. That full run had me tired just watching. The speed you had at the end was crazy. Hoping to get up later this year. I’ll be on off the guys you passed😂 Great video dude. Ride Safe. 🏴🤙
Nice vid i went for the World Cup Downhill Weekend and this was shut so couldn't ride it but rode Laggan Wolfrax, Glentress and Red Champs Trail. Nice run and fast
Can't fault it for the price in my opinion, only paid £25 for it last year and used it on pretty much every ride where I didn't need a full size bag. I don't really notice it while riding but I've not got any experience with other brands for comparison. Works for me and I'd buy another 👍
I'm another that just found your channel...going through the vids. Thinking of doing FW asap, but you "warmed up" on the DH? There's just the black DH and the championship track right?
From the top of the gondola there's this trail, then the DH used for world cups etc. There's a new blue trail opening from up there as well. Wouldn't say the DH is much of a warm up track haha but I'd been lapping it the day before so was more familiar with it. The new blue trail should be a nice warm up though, it's also going to be the longest MTB descent built in the UK 👍
Loved this bro. You rode that so well. Tricky trail with very high consequence should you spill. Have loved seeing you ride up in Scotland. Hopefully we can organise a meet up at some point. Keep em coming mate 👍
Thanks mate! Had a couple of close calls with the edge of that boardwalk, hard to keep your eyes from peaking over the edge which can't half put you off 😂 Pleasure to ride the trails up there, nothing like we have back home! Hopefully we can get a ride in some time over summer 👍
Rode Ft. William just gone (22/8) and Id never ridden Top Chief before, however the lads i was riding with all had. Rode Top Chief as a 'warmup' to the WC track. I hated it. never been a fan of boardwalks and it seemed that thats all the trail is, one long ass boardwalk with big rocks in between. Sit me on my DH bike andi'lln lap the WC track all day rather than ride that garbage again.

Definite arm pump material haha it was only those bits of boardwalk that saved me!
I was only watching and pooing myself on some of those corners that front fork took a battering nice run thow

Cheers mate, it's a really physical track to try and ride in one! I'm really keen to get back there myself. Hope you enjoy it when you visit 👍
Nice video bud. Really noticing the effort and editing put in to your recent vids 👍
Cheers! Been spending a little more time on the edits so happy to hear it's paying off 👊

Still ticked off some good places there by the sounds of it. Worth another run up to try it out of you get the chance though 👍
Yeah would love to go up again for a week as i live near Southampton so a real long journey but worth it
Epic trail and nice riding. How do you like the Dakine hot laps hip bag, does it move around much?

i know this was last year and i doubt you will reply. But did you cycle up or use the gondola?
Gondola 👍
Bloody hell.
