BKXC opened my eyes to the fun, fun, shredding world on youtube! I'm only scratching the service to see how all of our youtube trails connect with each other! Too cool!
I honestly have no idea about the cost of a ski/bike lift that isn't massive like on other parks but this seems like it would pay itself off pretty quickly if it can literally be open all year around
Problem is all y'all are using too many T's. We don't respond to people saying our name wrong. It's At-lan-uh or Uh-lan-uh. Say it with me and it shall come.
So much work went into all the trails around Austin! A lot of great people donated 1,000s of hours to make the dream a reality. As a recent transplant from ATX to CO, I have to say that while CO has epic trails I think Austin has a *major* fun factor that's hard to beat!
It never hurts to have two big names in youtube mountain biking to highlight this park in the same week (you and Jason Lucas). Thanks for coming down and letting people know about this. There are so many Austinites who are excited about this little hill. It should be a lot of fun for many people.
Thanks Seth for featuring our little corner of the world. I'm 51 and have ridden mountain bikes in California since I was in my early 20's. Moved here to the Austin area 9 years ago and found the mountain biking a lot of fun but very different from what I was used to. Having Spider Mountain open excites me big time and I can't wait to get out there.
Being a hill country rider myself (from Fredericksburg, about an hour west of Austin), it is refreshing to see people like yourself come and enjoy the trails and community that we have to offer! Glad you had a good time!
HAHA right before you said "I'm looking at you Atlanta" I was like YES we need that stuff here. We have so many mountains of possibilities here in North GA. It would be SICK !!
I'm in Tallahassee and yes damnit. Drive up Friday night. Shred all day sat. Hit Sunday morning run and get some food and head home. Atlanta is a dream spot for a good park
With al the amenities we've gotten recently like the stadiums and Lakepoint near acworth, a Lift Park is all we need now. Maybe theres a way to start a petition for it? They'd want it ready by the next superbowl! Atlanta is asking for it again in 26 or 2027.
Your dirt diaries submission is one of my favorite videos of yours it was a great piece and I watch it every month when I get a little unmotivated. But great job getting Scott on a MTB again him boosting the jumps at whistler was so epic.
Oh, come one. Just do some quick maths! You only have to subtract 32 from the fahrenheit measurement, multiply the result by 5/9, sacrifice a goat no older than 10 months, and then recite _Photograph_ by Nickelback in reverse while eating a fresh placenta.
@@BikingWIthPanda Ontario has more than 100m (300+ feet) of vertical in many places. You work with what you have, and that's enough to play with. There's plenty of locations in Ontario that could be home to a Gravity Park. Ontario isn't BC but we sure have potential to make the "Gravity Scene Great Again" lol. We need more Gravity fed, lift or shuttle access bike parks (Downhill, Freeride & Enduro etc.) in general but especially in Ontario, Canada. I would hope everyone feels the same. How could anyone not want more? Cheers man \m/ :)
@@3adamwardw Completely understandable! But their seasons pass is only $199?!!! That's such a good deal! :D One seasons pass is paid off in like 4.5 days riding?! So you and your girl could both get seasons passes, and after going for 2 weekends you're essentially riding for free! :D Cheers \m/ :D
@@3adamwardw That's still a good deal, and not hard to get your money's worth out of. I'm just super stoked to see more lift or shuttle access bike parks open up! :D
When I first started riding in the late 90's we had a place here in San Antonio called 700 Acres which was 700 Acres of Mountain Bike and MXR trails and it was fun!
Holy crap I hope that your involment keeps spreading the word on how much the mountain biking community brings to new places!!! Keep up the great work!!!
Wow, another great video Seth. I wish they'd work on our own DH park here in Michigan. Boyne Highlands definitely needs some TLC. I usually end up going to Blue Mountain, Ontario since the drive is about the same, but I feel Michigan is missing out by not taking full advantage of the mountain biking boom here.
For us swamp-locked Louisianans, this lift is exciting. I can't wait to pop over to Austin and get on the hill...er umm..mountain. Props to the crews who worked hard to build this park and make this lift happen! See you guys soon.
@@TheBlkzenki if you are in the spring area, the Cypresswood trails are pretty good and great for beginners, but there is also cypress creek trails nearby which are more advanced, but more fun in my opinion
Been watching MTB videos recently, thinking that it would awesome to do this. But I live in central Texas. All of a sudden this beautiful video showed up. Woooohooooo!
So pumped to have this here in Texas. I left the inland Northwest when I joined the Army and thought I left mountain biking behind, but Spider Mt pulled through! Thanks for giving central Texas some recognition Seth!
@@SethsBikeHacks Jeah its a lot easier! Best thing would be that everybody would use the same system! Maby you have that feet system, therefore, you at least got decent bike parks XD
This place looks great. I’ve got a place just like it near my house called horns hill. It has a little less elevation but has got some sick trails. We even had and enduro race there which was super fun. They also run shuttle on the weekends.
A flow trail in Texas would be insanely expensive. Here is why: Texas has a super thick layer of limestone right beneath the walking surface. Most of it is actually sticking out of the ground. To make a flow trail, people will have to hire excavators to come and carve out the rock, and haul dirt in. That's why most of the trails are tech trails.
Hill country yes but the rest of the state, no so. Just no hills. In Midland/Odessa, their mountain biking park is in an abandon caleche pit! Maybe a 100 ft. deep but that is all they have. You make do with what you have and I am glad the Austin area got this park.
Brigham Hawkins theres a plus and a minus to the limestone. i helped dig at spider and while yes, the limestone is a pain, its also soft enough to break apart with some good pickaxe work, and the leftover limestone dust and pebbles mix well with existing soil to create excellent malleable dirt that stays dry in the rain.
I'm so happy to have seen this video. After seeing no front brakes talking about spider mountain, I have been waiting for it to open. I live 45min from Bentonville, but am excited to see a lift so close. I hope I can get down there soon.
A lot of people have been asking! I threw that one on while waiting for seals to arrive for my Pike. I'm going to leave the Fox 36 though because it feels really nice. I changed it to 150mm to keep to spec with the bike. Changing it up can be fun!
@@SethsBikeHacks hey seth how do i fix a broken front axle, a cracked suspension (the lock thing not the suspension itself), a bent hangar, a seat that needs to have 100000000 pounds of force to stay clamped, and how do i rewire my shifter cables? also my pedal snapped into 2 pieces but i lost the other half. It snapped when i was riding down a street. it was aluminum. and no i dont have a walmart bike, just *never buy a trek marlin 5* if you plan to do anything but ride in a circle
and before someone says it yes i did take care of the bike. Ever since the pedal snapped though i've given up, it was the straw that broke my ankle when my ankle hit the aluminum
My wife and I rode here this past Sunday for the first time in about 1.5 years. They have added multiple trails, and there was probably 250 riders there. Eminent Cycles brought out demo bikes. I ride a YT Tues and she has a Rocky Mountain Altitude. They have added some drops, a few more wooden features, and some pretty gnarly double blacks. We used to drive 15 hours to Trestle to get our ski lift fix. Now we drive 2 hours to go here. We'll go to Trestle soon, but Spider Mountain keeps us plenty entertained.
I lived in Austin for 15 years until 2011 when I moved to Atlanta. Awesome vibe and pretty descent “green belt” single track riding emphasizing tech over elevation. Lots of fun if you don’t mind riding when it’s 100 degrees 😁
I appreciate the call out to ATL as I used to live there before I joined the military and have always thought of the endless opportunities of a bike park north of the city with all the mountains only an hour or 2 drive from any where in the metro or surrounding areas. Hopefully someone will pick on this and start something that could truly be special there.
I was ecstatic to hear about this, I haven't gotten to ride more than 2 runs down a lift-access park and didn't think I'd get the chance to for a long time, but now I've got one within day-trip distance. I can't wait to be able to spend more than an hour a day biking (the uphills on most trails around here feel constant).
Glad you enjoyed what has been built so far, and excited to see what they add. I'll likely be moving from Arkansas to Texas sometime in the next year so I'm happy to see an increase in options there.
Totally agree with your comment about Atlanta. They've got some great hills there, and an active mountain bike community, so I'm surprised there isn't one already. I went mountain biking in the northern part of Georgia, and it was a blast! Just found your channel, love it, keep up the good work.
I drive up to Spider Mountain from Houston every few weeks, such a great bike park. They have made tons of improvements over the years including the new "Sleep Tight" trail that opened a few weeks ago; really crazy watching people take those massive drops right underneath the ski lift.
