Вставка
- Опубліковано 1 жов 2024
- After a heavy month of building, the time has come to open the full course top to bottom, and as the only person remaining on the farm this week the responsibility lies on Theo's shoulders! Hope you guys enjoyed the build series because all the riders arrive tomorrow and Darkfest 2024 officially gets underway!

Opening it all on your lonesome shows your balls of steel
Theo deserves some sort of medal at the end of the Fest for doing all this sick filming for Sam
Cannot belive ,he says ,at the end ,,,sorry for being a wus..unbelievable....on a 90ft jump... think you have a right,to take all the time you want ....bloomin legend !!
Agreed! No need to apologise for sending these monster gaps... and doing it solo! Absolute LEGEND! Hyped for you
Atta boi Theo, 2nd run was clean man! We all shared the nerves! xD
bro you werent wussin you were just being sensible given the fact that youre the only rider there right now ,good shit
Fucking love Theo taking over the channel, hes such a good dude.
Can I also just say, we as spectators, feel a little bit of the elation you feel when you get top to bottom. Gives us all a big smile. Gj Theo
WOOOO! Yes Theo!! You legend. Love seeing behind the scenes and witnessing what you're going through to build yourself up to hit them. Mad respect!!! Looking forward to seeing Sam back on the bike hopefully and the rest of the guys sending it soon!
I am so impressed with the rider at 05:40 and I love that the production team left this section in. Showing the process of breathing and positive affirmation and visualizing success is a dynamic lesson in real time stress management. I LOVE THIS SPORT.
Agreed!!!
So sick! More of it
Oh my gosh, I'm sweating an my heart beat is insane! So much of emotion in this video. Greait job, can't wait the for next epizode, don't sprain your ankles!
I appreciate Theo's commentary because it sounds a lot like what would be going on in my head if I had to guniea pig a bunch life threatening jumps by myself, at least with the mates there's hype to keep the adrenaline and "brain switched off".... What a legend you are dude! Get well soon Sam!
Seriously impressive to push yourself into those jumps without a crew there to ride with. I've always thought these jumps would be awesome to ride but getting towed into something you know works vs testing a new set up the first time alone are worlds apart. Loved this video
Running those jumps in perfect isolation - that's quite something. Amazing!
Great job Theo that was sick!!!!!!
Incredible! Being the 1st person to test any gap is nerve racking. I can't imagine it with those gaps and height! You're insane! Well done!
So sick, I felt that fear. You did awesome Theo, can't wait to see all the boys shred it!
Theo is an absolute legend for taking over!!
That first run was nerve jangling! Second run you looked far more relaxed!
I wish Spank would bring back their color anodized Spike vibrocore bar..........
I love how raw this is! What a fucking legend!!!
This is the only way to get a real sense of how hard this is.. because they make it look so easy!
This is awesome. What a lad. So much respect for you Theo.
I'd be 'tetrified', too! 😉😆😆
SICK!!! Theo!!! Way to go!!!
You smashed that Sir!
Sam and C-Dog owe you big time.
Amped to follow the rest of the event🔥
You massive legend. I felt that loneliness at the top. Takes a big set of bollocks. Can't wait to see the next! Sam how's the ankle?
Nice Thao hope you are racing Spice this weekend
Hey Theo, awesome job on these videos man. It's been great to see you do these solo, got to see a bit more of your personality, really enjoyed it. And fair fucks for opening the line solo, mahahassive set of stones on ya! 🤘
2:45 got me good. Reminded me of a great summer day of riding.
Theo man, bloody legend 🤟✨
Loved that comment about waking up at 6am , opening the window and thinking..... Shiiiiiit ❗.... funny az dude... Cheers to you 🤟🎶
Fair play mate no fucking fear so cool , I’m surprised your ride pants can contain your massive bollocks .. every year you guys just blow my mind … soo good .. massive respect
jesus christ that was intense, I felt your nerves coming through my phone screen, amen brother 👊
Absolutely loved that, amazing 😅
Im the immortal words of Ed Masters. Theo Erlangsen "yous a Reeeeeeeall!! Bad man."
Great job Theo, brave man! Course looks so good, would love to ride it in the jam, doubt I would have the balls.
the emotion after that first run really lets you know how big that course is. Awesome opener!
🤘🤘🔥Killer work! Can't wait to see everyone shredding the course. It makes me feel better knowing that the pros still get nervous before a first run too.
Felt the nerves through the vid man, props for nailing that! Your constant happy is infectious bro! Keep at it :D
👋very noice test runs, wicked video.
Theo what a legend
That's a titanium set of nuts to do that on your own!
Yes Boyz
Theo 💪🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🤩😊
Darkfest is the gnarliest run in the world!
Thanks for the preview!!!!
Man Theo has some slick style
Theo you legend!
Fuckin love big air!!!!
YES! Now it's on! What a man 🙌🏽
Sending it Theo! So gnarly. That drone footage around 16 minutes was really cool. Great perspective of the line
Awesome top to bottom runs there Theo! You know u can do it!
Theo "sorry for being abit of a wimp on the 1st run!!! " Don't be silly lol😂 that talking yourself into it at the top I do that but the difference is I'm doing 15 to 20ft jumps 😂😂😂😂😂 darkfest never fails to impress well done everyone involved it's insane to watch 🤙
Yeah Theo!! Unlocked the course by yourself and first full pull!!🤙
Yoooow Theo, let's fucking go🤘🏼🔥 you got some balls boy🤯
I kinda know what it's to hit stuff alone, got you there mate🙌🏻
Man, Theo, who are you calling a wuss? You got brass balls hitting those jumps. Top to bottom, first of DF24! 👊💥🤙🔥
Well done Theo, brave, brave lad leading the way. No apologies needed. You are doing amazing. I can’t wait for the squad to arrive and ruin their hair cuts!
this shit is extreme both physically and psychologically. talking yourself down or ignoring your body saying no no no no is an impressive feat.
Theo's the man for pigin' this
I think Theo might be my favourite MTB personality.
Is that a silent and subtle PinkEye release, that’s happened the last weeks?🤷♂️🤔
Well done guys 👌
Go Theo, Your Evil Knievel doing that shit bye yourself!! This has to be one of my favorite Darkfest vids
Sending it 🤘 really appreciate showing the reality and fear. Something us scrubs can easily relate to on our bike length gaps 😂
I could do that 90 foot jump…just need to get myself off this couch and borrow somebody’s bike
You get a thumbs up , for being absolutely fucking hardcore
Yeah, those first hits would be fucking terrifying.
It was a bit nerve wracking just watching you do that first full run! Cannot imagine dropping in on that line for a solo test run, serious respect
Super sick, really Kool to see the honesty, raw is real🤘🏻⚡️🤛🏻top notch
Theo has always been a bit self deprecating when it comes to his talents, but it is insanely impressive to take the track on as the first rider. He should be hugely proud
Really liked the video just to show how daunting that run is. True feeling shown is great for content 😉
Hell yeah !
I feel like Sam should just give this channel to Theo... 🙌
Theo you’re doing a fuckin epic job mate. Legend
From Australia wishing all the best, legend doing that alone!
Theo humanised the course and validated how insane it is. Sam's accent lulls you into a false sense of sanity and then you realise he's crazy
Gutted that Sam and c-dog can’t open the jump. But loving Theo
Theo you are an absolute legend my bru, F*&king silky 👏
Yes Theo it was good to see the behind the scenes on the first runs your reaction and what was going thru your head mate shows that you guys are still human 😂
Tetreified should be a word in the context of Darkest!
f*cking legend, on his own. What a lad, well done Theo. Yessss boi
Get theo to make a channel, would watch him through the race season for suuuure. 😉
Nothing better then in the moment with a clear head space nothing else matters live for it 💯🤘🏼
Theo should have his own channel he is so funny, charismatic and such a good rider
Legend 💪🏻
Are we just ignoring the insane chopper footage...
Yes Theo! Best man; you are killing it. 🎉
sooo sick!
Go Theo GO! You're doing a yeoman's work!
He was so scared mid run he sounded english!! Lol 😮😮
mad !! solo testing = huge balls!! we need more #theofest
your the man for 2024 keep killing it
"Sam your bloody course is open for business" 😂❤
⚡️🔥🔥
Drone footage does it the tiniest bit of justice 😂😂
Hell yah bro! Great sending 🤘🏼
Great job Theo, these videos were sick!
Theo…. MY BRU!! Doing it on your lonesome for the sports fans… we are thankful my guy. You are a sender!!! LESSSHHHGOOO!!
Man you are crazy … positive !!! 😂
Onya Theo, crushed it mate 🤙
Enormous. Gigantic. Maaa-HOO-sive pair on our Théo. Well done lad. Great work.
Theo is the MVP for solo testing for sure
man a heavy morning session all by yourself really makes you think critically about how much you love a sport/hobby. Sitting at the top of every next run has you thinking deeply about why the heck you're doing this and how you don't need the gang to get you hyped up to be addicted to it.
Gonna be an awesome next few weeks with the event and all the riders coming through! Big ups Theo, you’re a madman for putting the first hits on your back - alone at that! 🤘🏻
That was rad!! Totally sick for Theo coming through with a major need for the event! Some serious balls to pull that off! Was also touching to see the emotions he had too. We as viewers can't even guess how it feels to accomplish that! Cool you left that in Sam!
