Almost got tears to my eyes when that little kid ran to his mom after that backflip. Also great and inspiring video as usual.
Lauri Hakala same, I felt the struggle melt off in 1 second for him
I don’t think the owner of the vid knows because he’s my irl friend
I mean the little kid
Lauri Hakala my bike is the one he’s riding in that clip
🤣🤣😂😂 I’m not joking his names jake
Shredbox wow ur cool
One of Seth's last videos, "i need to start dialing it back, I'm getting old" - proceeds with backflip training.....LOVE IT
The back flip try on his airbag
Tell the whole truth, you're a 14 years old kid in an adult shell. Italy loves you!
@mtb supertroll Damn fam take it easy holy crap
calmandcoldblood no actually I’m 12 😂
Rcmore what? That’s completely off topic
Lately Seth has been straight up bloodthirsty. Something about spending time in Whistler.... he just came back wanting to send only the biggest baddest stuff he can find... and man he's following through; that was gnarly!!!
He’s like a dare devil.
I followed through with a fart once, I'd consider that quite gnarly too.
Seth is showing up with his hard hat and lunch box.
Thank's alex
I would hope he's stoked and bloodthirsty. You folks get paid to wreck gear and shred awesome places all over the country. He'd better be sending it every second. And so should you, sampler boy. Sounds like a real tough job.
Yo Seth! You're getting sendy!
Jordan Boostmaster you would know a thing or two about sending it
@@clarkpark ya!
Jordan Boostmaster lol I was your 400 like
@JustinBieber says the one who has their youtube name as Justin Bieber
JustinBieber you got backlash for that one
lol, dude... you're a maniac! congrats on the progression buddy!
@BWB you're next buddy! 3's and flips are fun as heck!! Mad props to seth!
lol, oh hell no! i only backflip on accident! :)
Maybe after a shit load of beers and a bunch of friends peer-pressuring you into it ;-)
Backflips are awesome, but totally on my list of things I can die without having conquered! Awesome job
Thanks for getting those shots! I think we had some surplus for use in other videos as well
Anytime, it was a blast!
Yeah u are right i will go with simple jumps bat hunger 4 backflips naa not happening
Man, Phil is literally the dopest guy. He would give you encouragement if you were learning to pedal for the first time.
What a boss!!
Can't believe this has no replies lol.
Can’t believe this only has one reply, lol.
Can’t believe this only has two replies lol.
Egg junior FFS! Remove that ”that”
Nice catch thanks
Before you consider trying this without a foam pit, ask yourself: Are you as badass as those dudes at the beginning? Links in description
nice👌
Yes I am.
Nope. Even with foam. 🐔
Seth's Bike Hacks do you think you would be able to do the drops like you did off the wooden plat form in the forest on a hard tail
When I broke my arm they had to do surgery and they had to move one of the nerve and my hand felt tingly for like 2 months so you are probably fine.
Until I started watching your channel I wouldn't have considered a Diamondback as a viable option for me. I'm excited to say that a box showed up at my house today with an affordable full suspension bike inside. Thanks for all the tips and great videos!
Any updates on the Diamondback bike? What do you think of it after 2 years?
@@MaggotDiggo1 I have a Diamond back Mason for about 4 years and the only issue I've had is the bearings in the hub keep falling out and the Suntour fork is trash. I upgraded the wheels and shock and it rides great now
Phil helping out Seth, this is one of the best video's I have seen. Phil genuinely wants people to get better, thanks for sharing you progression Seth. I can't wait to see you pull this on a trail in the Spring.
its so lovely that phil jumped into the foampit to rescue seth. 4:08
Sometimes I ask myself "how much better are these guys on UA-cam than I am". About 6 weeks ago I went to Highland for the first time (my second time @ a park). I saw those big features you did there (Pinkbike drop and the big wooden burm thingy with gaps on either side). I now realize you're MUCH MUCH better. Insanely better.
how is that bike not destroyed????
It’s a really good bike!
Not a cheap one
im thinking a spare bike would be a good option
I guess when ur given it, it's easier to be carefree?? Or when its not ur one and only bike u saved and starved to get...maybe if u buy its better to buy cheaper, so u are less precious and ride harder fir more stoke?
CwALT Was thinking the same, maybe getting a dirt to practice tricks on would be a good idea before jumping into the fullsuspension bike
One of the clips of people trying/doing backflips when the kid did one and got so excited he jumped off his bike and ran over to his mom to hug her made my day :)
4:08
Phil: To the rescue
Seth, I once hit my funny bone really hard on the corner of a wall, the left side of my hand was completely numb for about a week after but gained full sensation back in the end
that’s comforting! I read that I should give it a few weeks and then see a doctor if it’s not gone. So hopefully you-me-same.
I once got hit by a baseball bat (full swing) in the funny bone. My fingers were stuck, completely locked into a fist for the first few hours. It took about 3-5 days for my pinky and ring finger to unlock and fully extend. Oddly, nothing was broken and after my fingers all came up, I was good to go!
I also got a serious knock in the wrong place like this (though I did it with a ladder, not a bike). I nearly passed out from the shock, and it took several days for the sensation to fully return in my hand. But ever since, I get some tingling feeling every now and then from my elbow to my pinky finger. So don't wait too long with seeing a doctor if it doesn't go away soon!
carrick dolan Seth's Bike Hacks I don’t know if it’s comparable but I got surgery on my collarbone about 9 months ago and I still have nerve damage on my chest and shoulder area from the surgery when they said it would go away. Maybe don’t wait too long!
I had something with similar symptoms effecting the ulnar nerve. Went away after 3 weeks. Sleeping with the effected arm out rather than bent and nerve flossing helps with recovery .... and also not riding :(
Seth you are an inspiration. At 35 and a new father, I've put this on my way down on my bucket list. Sadly my nearest resi ramp/ mulch pile got taken down before I could get it. Seeing this, I now will set off on a trip somewhere to conquer the flip. Look forward to see you land tire side down on dirt in future episodes!
Every time i watch your videos I feel great, so glad i can support this channel through Patreon. Thank you Seth for making my day continuously and it was a lot of fun seeing you in Duluth.
Awesome progression! Nice to see Phil again!
4:08 I love the way Phil just sprang into action
Dude, you’re one of my favorite youtubers, and I’ve only been watching you for a few months now. Started getting into serious MTB, and I trying to learn the tricks I see you sending all the time. Seeing you do a backflip full send made my day. Thanks!😄
I was with you all the way Seth. Every post I see you out out is gold and really glad when you pulled the flip off. Thanks for posting the best mtb shows on youtube.
Nobody pushes Seth’s skills further like Phil! Great video, Highland goes on the bucket list.
Well done Seth found ur Channel last year and u have progressed so much well done keep it going🤘🏽
Love watching you progress. Thanks for bringing us along, and congrats!
Seth - you have balls my friend. The camera does not do Highland justice. Heading there Sunday with my son!
That first attempt was awful
You are the best mountain biking youtuber ever 😃
Phil is pretty much looking like Alex
Never go full alex
I only recently realized that they are two different people tbh
NickDa$wagger lol
NickDa$wagger I realized it in this video
Back when they were doing a video together, they honestly seemed like brothers. Not just their appearance, but also their interactions and behaviour.
I am so exited to see some of the crazy MTN biking you have planned for the future. Love the videos!!! Keep up the good work. 👍🏻
This is why I love this channel! 🤙 Thanks for inspiring us to keep progressing and being so transparent.
How is Phil doing? We’re hoping he’s all right since he decided to take some time off.
Matt Allen I think he said in one of his last videos that he had to focus on school for a while.
yeah in this video we can totally see him focusing on school ;)
He has anxiety about posting I think
Good to see the elusive Phil!
The school focus was ages ago, he posted he had finished school...and built/did up his bike cave/work bench
I ride semi pro slopestyle, and I found it quite funny when taking about flip control, Philadelphia flips have bad control as well, I've done mini flips and flip variations, you need to try less flip, and more let the takeoff do it, if your ever in the uk, feel free to join me at my private resi to try some more flips and other tricks
This just made my school day A LOT MORE FUN! Thank you, Seth! Keep out the great works on your videos.
A couple years ago when I started watch you, and video consisted of 2x4s painted red and called a bike stand, I thought pretty cool. But you are a legit rider and a great example of building a UA-cam business. Good for you all around. Love it.
And now all of us 30+ crowd will soon be getting various surgeries.
This is so weird just subbed to Phil a minutes before you published this. (Note that a minute is an exaggeration to the actual distance between my sub and the release of this video)
Forget the backflip...you were hitting HUGE stuff at the park effortlessly. It's amazing how much your riding has progressed in the past year. Trail bike...30 foot gap jumps...insane. Crazy to see you doing Pro level stuff!
thanks! I do have friends to thank for towing me into this stuff, as well as you guys for making all these experiences possible
Way to go Seth! You've got that backflip nearly dialed in. Thanks for sharing and always helping us with our confidence. I always say to myself "Well Seth did it, Mike. So stop freaking out and just do it!" I will be heading to Highland hopefully in October - thanks again Seth! You keep MTB fun!!
It is a correctly right video for me because I have fall down with my bicycle 🚲 then I saw your video I have learnt how to stunt does you hare angrez
Hey seth i just wanna let you know haters are here because they feel good about saying bad stuff to good youtuber and if you want you can learn everything PLS keep up that good of a work
Dude it's his full time job
@@Narayan_Patki see haters only hate however they can
@@fedor5664 I'm saying he will keep on making videos
@@fedor5664 and he has almost no haters.
I just scrolled throught all the comments. litterally not 1 single comment is hating on seth. it's all like ''nice vid seth keep it up''. This guy has like zero haters!
I mean it's not like anything he does was provocative...
Welcome to the hurt locker. Wow, that was real life raw. Such a great perspective. Great to see Phil again too and rocking Deity.
I've been watching your progression from a regular next-door guy who also enjoys little mtb/bmx tricks to a full blown bike maniac. The "old" Seth convinced me it's not too late to start learning the real riding and now I got the "new" Seth to keep up to. Just please don't hurt yourself dude!
Insane!!! Get that ulnar n taken care of ASAP! You can lose up to 60% of your grip strength. Let me know if you need a good hand therapist down there. I’ll hook you up.
Hey Seth u should come to Australia for summer
Hell yeah
“I’m good, I just wrecked my ankle” Can’t stop, won’t stop! Way to go my man. Sooo awesome!
Seth you never cease to amaze me !! You my friend are getting sicker by the day ! And I think you had the right guy leading you.... Glad to see Phil and you hanging !! I tried to get it on a BMX back in the day but at 54 I don't think that needs to be in my bag of tricks...lol
Hey Seth you should get a dirt jumper.
damn! now that's a UA-cam video! I give it 20 thumbs up.... for the 20 people who were nuts enough to put their thumbs down!! :)
Deadly vid. Nice to see how the pro's process new tricks and what they go through to achieve what looks like magic
Smeahhhhhhh
The long hair version of phil kmetz is so cool
he’s gone full metal on us!
Goo job Seth👊🏽💪🏼. Great to see Phil!!!! Need some more videos from BOTH of you!
Hey Seth,
i watched everytime i can your videos to learn. sorry for my bad english, im german and i hope you understand what i write. There many german UA-camrs but through your Channel and Phil`s i have learned and understood more than anyone else. Keep it up, Bro. You are in my opinion the best Mountainbike UA-camr ever ! Thanks for all the explanation an tips !
Not gonna try a backflip. I’m 35 that flip has sailed for me.
I think Seth is older than that. Although I'm slightly younger and I won't be trying either :)
@@TravelsWithATwist Seth has a master about "how to fall".
Seth have thick bones and muscles
Did my first backflip at 50.
I was good at doing backflips on a trampoline at some point. I could do 2 backflips in a row. After a break at tricking I tried to backflip, accidentally did a cork but didn't get hurt. Then when I tried to flip again, I landed on metal and now I'm too traumatized to even try to backflip again. I can still do them from hard to foam tho.
First
Tara McRae I was
Great videos Seth! Stumbled upon your channel right around your move to NC and been following ever since! Thanks for kicking ass!
I love seeing you grow as a rider, dude it makes me happy
Lets see how many likes this can get
Lets see how much like bait this can be
@@jannanas9139 my record is 30 something lol
@@deanschlechter i dont really care
Kudos to you for pushing your boundaries and landing a couple. Task accomplished!!
Loved that Phil jumped straight in when you smashed your ankle. Top bloke.
Great job Seth!! Way to go big man you should be proud of yourself. If anyone can perfect backflips you can
47 years old,,, next life goals. Big up progressing and sending! That’s a HUGE moment!
Hey Seth I love your channel, I am seriously worried for you though taking it to the next level, I know the feeling, the want to get better and do more, and I know I don't have to tell you, since this is your primary job, you don't need to take it to the next level to further your channel, I'm here for the pro lvl vid making, commentary, biking and inginuity, community. Stay safe bro, ride hard. Keep up the great work!!! I'm waiting for that 1 million subs too!!!👍👍👍💪💪💪😁😁😁
Just wanted to say hi and thanks for ALL the videos. I just started riding this summer with a hand me down bike I got from my brother but after watching your videos I already want to start saving and the the beginner bike you spoke of in the “Build a beginner bike video” and learn to do the stuff you do. You make it all look so easy and fun. Anyways I don’t want to take up much of your time and I just wanted to say hi and I’ll keep watching for new videos everyday. Hope to get a thumbs up from you man.
Man, Seth you were always good but since moving a while back you have stepped it up another level!!!
Yeah Seth!!! So sick! Your riding has improved so much it’s unreal!
Awesome vid! Congrats on the profession! Good to see you riding with Phil again. You two should do some vids with your BMX bike. I just rode my nephew's BMX bike I got for his birthday, and man, what a different sensation it is. It's been over 15 years since I've ridden one. Keep up the good work!
NICE!!! I don’t think I’ll ever want to try any flip, but it’s fun to see others go through the progression. Congratulations on nailing it! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
👍👍👍👍👍nice!!! Plus it was awesome to see Phil. I've really been missing that guy.
That, " N.E. Style" is an insane trail.. great job.. great video
Cool video Seth. This was a good one. Mad props on learning the flip. This is something I want to do myself.
It is so cool you learned a backflip as an adult, you're inspiring others!
Well done Seth. Seriously impressive stuff. Takes guts to try that, I can appreciate it as a 35yr old bike rider (roady). Would love to give it a try some day. Fantastic facility over there!
Keep up the great content!
love Highland great video good job completing flipski phil makes everything look easy
Great to see Phil back in the mix.
Watching you is out of my comfort zone. Great job!
Thats how to send it ! Great job Seth, almost makes me want to and find a foam pit and flip my fatty ! :)
Terrific storytelling Seth, I was really engaged and I was so happy when you landed that first backflip! I’m hooked!
Phil! Glad to see you’re still making videos and working with Seth. Did you figure out your finances and decide to continue making videos? Miss your videos and tutorials.
congrats on the flip and love the videos at Highlands!!
Great vid, just love the little boy who finally does it.
I never knew how good of a mountain biker you were until I watched this video😁
super stoked for ye Seth, must be such a gd feeling rolling away from that first flip, another milestone ... check!
Congrats from Mexico!!!
Seth is a savage!
Hell yea dude! I learned flips into foam on my slope style, ended up taking them to resi on a bmx. It’s a good feeling!
Phil is such an awesome guy as well as you seth. You both make me wanna keep pushing harder
huge props for sending it seth!
Happy to see a video with Phil!
Wow. Impressive, Seth! And so good to see Phil again.
That jumping wall ride was epic!

Salute brother you are nuts!! Sick progression!
Soo good to see Phil back on UA-cam! Can't wait to see his tutorial.. not that I will ever attempt a backflip haha. Great video :)
Props to you for full sending it
Yr killin it this season. Whistler fears conquered. Back flip in the works... good shit bro !
Seth, you are a madman. and i love it! Keep up the good work :))
Seth coming in with the full send!! Heck yeah man!
Congrats on the landing the backflip!! Also it was nice to see Phil too
