    I was so excited to make this video with Steve! What was the favourite tips we gave? Find the Assegai and DHR 2 on here: bit.ly/35vUrF5

      For the last 2 years I ride with Assegai as front and DHR II as rear , so far it works pretty good actually !

      My favourite tip is the speed control, especially on the downhill drops, you always go so much slower than I’d imagine you need to do definitely going to practice slowing it down on such things 👍

    • @14MaddMaxx
      @14MaddMaxx 2 роки тому +1

      Definitely speed control, the way you guys force the bike into the ground apply full brake and then let off immediately. Half the time I’m braking my bike is unweighted.

    Just brilliant. Love seeing the 'process' in action and especially impressed with the ability to know when to step away. Superb

      Yeah - it's fascinating isn't it? If I spend that long looking at things (obviously at a far lower level) I tend to psych myself out and never do it, but maybe I'm not methodical enough!

    Love the way Steve is listening to his body and walking away from things he‘s not comfortable doing in the moment. That‘s proper advanced riding. Know when it is safe to push and progress and when it‘s not safe and set yourself back from injury. Super impressed - and the right message to send. Let‘s replace “just send it” with “be competent”.

  • @franksnyder363
    @franksnyder363 2 роки тому +8

    I'm proud of Steve for tapping out. Sometimes the hardest thing to do is to not chase the stoke. Especially when Remy is making it look so buttery.

    Remy, this video is INCREDIBLE. I love the way you pieced it together and having Alex shoot those angles to really show you and Steve's body positioning which is not easily found in regular POV footage. Learn something new every time you guys ride together. More content with the two of you please! You should do a mini series with you and Steve haha

  • @jeremyprovonsil7886
    @jeremyprovonsil7886 2 роки тому +1

    Both styles are so clean I think they did my laundry! Remy backs up the dump truck full of in-depth detail, unloads paydirt, and Steve just absorbs it all. Boom, the hammer gets dropped with precision. Line sniping 101. You dudes provide the hype!

  • @2WheelKyle

    • @ralphhebgen7067
      @ralphhebgen7067 3 місяці тому

      You’re right. Neither helmet cam or external shots give the features true credit. I wonder whether 3D will ever be good enough to convey a true sense of what it feels like when you are riding.

  • @savageferria505
    @savageferria505 2 роки тому +4

    1. Can't think of any better way to find out Maxxis has your back
    2. Saw Steve leave this for another day a while ago and I am always impressed by someone that knows and rides within their physical and mental limits... So they can ride another day!
    3. So stoked to see Steve stomp it, but the first thing he said was, "that was way too slow." I'd say he was either going faster than Remy or popped more
    4. The semi wet dirt is in the tires and marking the rock for each landing. Remy landed his first two within about a tire width of each other and maybe a few cm longitudinal distance, but Steve landed a full tire length farther downhill. Combined with landing farther and the longer wheelbase, his front was even closer to missing the transition. His second run he actually landed where Remy did the first 2x
