I don't think Whistler even bothers to fix braking bumps anymore, honestly. It's getting to the point where it's almost embarrassing how blown out the trails are. 10 points for the side quest!
haha i’m getting it replaced under warranty so i’ll be going back to the zeb. I might borrow my dads fox 36 off his bike while im waiting for the warranty though.
I just stumbled across your channel. Great video man. Crabapple is sick

Super sick video dude!. I had a 2020 rockshox boxxer and i blew out the hidraulic damper at the spanish DH Nationals. Seems to be a fault on a plastic piece that breaks off. Rockshox usually services It by the warranty. In my case they sent me the 2021 boxxer top end ,worldcup,so dont worry about It mate. Really enjoying your vids dreaming about whistler. Peace&love from Spain ✌🏻
"if i pull my back brake....." Force can act 90 degrees to how they were applied on a free floating rotating body. if you press your front brake will that back tire go up? sorry about the fork. :(
When you go off the jump, your wheels are rotating forward, pulling either brake will transfer the forward rotation from the wheels onto your body/bike
Better to keep the front wheel spinning so you can use it to steer in the air. But yes if you apply either brake in the air it will make your bike rotate forward around the bb.
I've always wondered. Don't your feet ever slip off of the pedals? Because I'd imagine you'd be standing a lot because of all those bumps. Or do you simply have extremely good suspension?
when going downhill like this i’m standing up 99% of the time. even with really good suspension it would be impossible to jump or ride down steeps while sitting down. and yes sometimes my feet do slip off the pedals but it’s less likely than you would think.

Could be a token that got loose.
haha no it’s 100% the damper went. I wish it was just a token
