Nice video man 👍 keep it up
Nice video man 👍 keep it up
Completely rad!
Maybe my favorite vid of yours ever Phil. Loved it. Great riding. Was a pleasure to watch this for a whole 30 min. Also i really dig your new bike. The blue and yellow looks so good together!
Hey Phil, what is the oldest person you've seen riding double black diamond trails? Im just starting mtb riding at 39 and want to hit Whistler or Queenstown some day
Phil Kmetz upgrading his brakes. How adorable. We all know they are mostly there for decoration.
But they look cooler now!
Lmao
@@SkillsWithPhil We all know looking cooler makes you go faster! Paint some flames on em' too
@@mattdeso1672 Then they will overheat!
Bahahahaha
He’s shouting “this is good!” and I’m thinking “that tree would have killed me, those rocks would have killed me... do these guys even touch the ground?” 😂
No they don't
It was fun doing some laps (and bucket drinks) with you dude!
You have some great vids dude
Hello
Love the super long video...you shred man. Diggin' the GT ride...
THOMAS FISKE try going on Enduro World Series
I'm happy to be working with GT in such capacity. Their newer bikes ride really well.
@@SkillsWithPhil What about YT? It is said that the kapra 2018/19 is such a badass bike for its low costs.
Stingray tt YT’s suck
Favourite saying of the century, “what are you?” ~Phil Kmetz
Is it just me or this guy absolutely insane!? He rides so much more aggressive than most the others I watch..
-Phil hits a huge gap: “Wow that was sketchy!”
-Me looks at a 5ft drop: “maybe next year” 😂
You are definitely the most talented rider i have ever seen! Wish I had ur skill
And yet there are are plenty of riders out there who are even more talented!
Yee
Well there is skill and then there’s those that do red bull crazy shit no thanks lol I rather stick to riding a enjuro down a trail bit more power and speed yet more fun because you got a more capable bike also can do some down hill stuff aswel oviusly but for crazy riders extreme DH with a triple fork shock is needed trail bikes are more restrictive yet a enjuro is more capable and can do trail very well and enjuro very well down hill is kinda tricky because to trust the frame for extreme hard landings
@@jonathanoxlade4252 enduros are good at trails but nowhere near as good of climbers as trail bikes
Epic riding man! Sending it like your on a dh bike, damn impressive.
Maybe one day, I'll bring a DH bike here!
Worldwide Cutlery and kazoos hello
@@jimtoffo4246 World Wide Cutlery... 🔪🔪🔪🔪
Awsome stabilization on your camera 😀👍🚲🌲
It's working pretty freaking flawless here!
Skills With Phil is this the Hero 7 on the helmet chin bar?
The confidence with which phil rides... It's a beautiful thing.
As an parent I realy love how you connect with your younger fans! You realy make their day by just stop and do a fistbump, have a quick chat or a short ride.
You truly are a capeless hero!
How can you not like Phil? Super talented rider and he seems so genuine and generous with his knowledge. His videos are also so family friendly haha
Love the long video
Buuut my eyes hurt from not blinking for 30 minutes
I might suggest using the ad interruptions for a blink break!
Good idea Ill try that for your next long video
Andrew Cho is a legend. Dude was PARALYZED and just decided to not be paralyzed anymore through simple willpower and spirit and perseverance.
Phil...you got skills! Nice riding with you on opening day, even if it was a mud fest!
I'm glad we got to catch up even if it was super super brief. I felt like a dog with like 20 toys to choose from during that trip. So much to do and get distracted by but not enough time.
over 30 minutes of pure phil? , you sir have made my day.
bring us more long vids!
Might be the best Whistler video I’ve seen. Unique line choices, crazy gnar at high speeds, riding blind, and some follow cam footage of some sick riders.
that's the longest video I've watched in one shot because it's all bangers and no fillers. Awesome!
This is some really great content, Phil!!! With the long video, it's like a TV show, and it's in Whistler!! What more could I ask for? Keep it up, you shred hard!!!!💪👏
Now thats pure skills, Running blind on trails Damnnnnnnnn!!!
Looks like you and GT are a good team, congratulations Phil. Fantastic riding, thanks for bringing us along.
Gotta say Phil, you're a massive inspiration. I've really enjoyed watching all the videos especially ones like this and your trips to Highland. Jibbing and sending everything, having the most fun out of anyone. Mainly wanted to say how much I appreciate all you're doing and your generosity to the community. Keep doing your thing and getting us all stoked on MTBing.
As a skiier from MA, I was at Whistler for mtb opening weekend, but to SKI their final week! After discovering how many mountain bikers traveled to this mountain all i've been watching is footage shot while I was visiting... like this!!
Phil sees a pebble, "I can launch that."
Sick! Always look forward to watching your videos Phil! 🤙
Like watching, Phil.
Love whistler, Phil.
I'm fulfilled by your colloquialisms.
Phil:)
I used to think that you were a good rider, but after you started posting a lot more I realized that you are a super good rider that can compete where the pros.
He was a pro downhill racer for a few years
I always knew you had skills, but hearing a fellow UA-camr recently saying you're the best he's ridden with and then watching you on trails I'm familiar with, it became all the more apparent. Mad skilz!
That was the shortest 30 min video ... ever ✔
I tried to cut out all the slow parts, while keeping the good dialogue in. Happy to hear you liked it :)
I didn't know this was 30min till I read this comment
Ziploc bags over the rotors!! Wisdom beyond your years Phil!
Awesome Content Phil! Your line choices are some I've never seen before making it very refreshing for WBP content. Keep shredding man.
Hey, excellent sportsmanship Phil. My ten year old (also happens to be a nonverbal, autistic, wonderful guy) got hooked on mountain biking videos, while I'm quite the chicken and wouldn't normally watch I just want to say you seem like a really great guy and I love the example of humanity you are constantly putting out here. Thank you!
Great video! The occasional nervous laughter tells us when even you think it's sketchy. I also appreciate your willingness to interact with your fans. Keep it up.
Pretty solid rides Phil. Also, I think it’s pretty cool you take time out to meet the kids out there. That makes all the difference. They are the next UA-camr generation.
Phil, you're an absolute BEAST! Your tables are looking DIALED. By far my favorite whistler videos.
Phil, you are truly one of the most inspirational riders on the planet! It's amazing to watch you ride a bike with so much skill, confidence, and speed. It's incredible how fast and controlled you can hit trails blind with seemingly reckless abandon, while having complete trust in your equipment. You should make a video explaining how to train the mental skills that allow someone like you to ride at a level that is beyond what most are capable of and think is possible, or put more generally, how to build the confidence to push your bike to the absolute limit of grip and control. Thanks for all the great content!
I didn’t check the video length when I started watching this video. I was then shocked to see how long it was when I finished it all the way through. It was that entertaining! I’m glad you’re back Phil! Keep it up! This was so good it didn’t feel long at all!
Love all the production you did on this one Phil! You definitely managed to portray the feelings of an awesome weekend
that line at 10:44 on A-line, where you basically cut the corner by making it as straight as possible, for some reason I have never thought of that! I'll try that out next time I'm there. And who did those kids see at 21:50?! haha
I have no idea who those kids saw haha. Must be another person out-there with a Devinci and wearing 5 GoPros!
DUDE I had to watch that gap over the wooden features at 1:39 like 5 times because it was blowing my mind! So SICK! You earned yourself a new subscriber from that alone! (Also I enjoy your videos in general)
That was Siiick !
You got some mad skillz Phil,
I've ridden those trails hundreds of times and you're showing me new lines and gaps on them on your first run, ridiculous ! Peace :)
The switchback at 12.44 was just amazing. Keep up the amazing work !
12:44
That rock gap you did for Pinkbike is gigantic and super sketchy, none of those angles do it justice! I watched that video thinking "Yeah, that was a cool gap" but then I saw it in person yesterday... you sir are an absolute beast!
Phil is the Chuck Norris of MTB!
Phil doesn't ride downhill. He stops at the top and the bottom comes up to him.
Loved the vid dude!
“What are you” at whatever that even was was definitely the funniest part of the video 😂
I definitely wasn't expecting a partridge.
Man that was a real Sick Ride at Whistler.
My heart was pumping at so many points. Jesus Phil 🤪 what Crazy skills man 🤙
Would love to enjoy a new one. Those videos are the best.
Ride on and thanks for the awesome clip 🎥 🤩
Love the video, really shows how damn fast you are and how I don't belong on any of those double blacks.
Phil, I absolutely love your videos. Easily the best channel. I love how your videos are so long yet full of gold. It's not like your videos are just long for the sake of being long.
I don’t always have the time to tune into a 30 min episode but it was a great way to start the weekend. Awesome sauce, Captain Phil.
Big Smile watching this - totally the essence of having fun on a bike!
love it!
I remember when you did it on that green hard tail! The one in your cheap bike video 😂
Haha, that was technically at highland mountain bike park!
Always inspiring to watch you rip. So cool to see trail bikes being this sendy! I keep looking for the limits of my Capra...
Best Whistler opening weekend video of the year by far. Loved every second of it. You really captured all the fun you had with your creative style of riding.
Sounds like he's tap dancing over the rock's. He was impressing everyone there, for sure. 🤘🐺🥞
Easily the best mountain bike vlog on youtube and easily the most talented rider making videos I've seen!
Have you seen THESE gap in 1:40???? And it’s really amazing the way Phill floats over the roots!!!! You have the rare ability to find the hardest lines then destroy them!!! 😂😂😂😂 You’re a legend bro!!!!!
Dang! 31 minute video!! Its an early bday present for me! Amazing riding as always. Just like every other video of yours I'm always in awe of your line choices. Keep up the good work buddy
GT made one of their smartest moves by sponsoring Phil. Never even thought of getting a GT but now def on my radar. Great looking bike!
I grew up racing on gt bmx bikes, they have had a special place in my heart, it's kind of unreal to be working with them.
Definitely the best of the "Whistmas" videos that just dropped from the various mtbtubers. So wish I could ride like that! Kudos
This has got to be the BEST 30 minute mountain bike video on youtube to date!! Great editing and nar!!! Again, awesome video Phil, good job!
Love the long video with tons of laps at the bike park. Really love watching you shred!
Great video Phil, thanks for showing that great MTB'ers get lost on the trails too. All the other videos I watch from others YT channels, I wonder how they know where they are going. I think I have yet to follow the correct path down any trail, haha
keep up the great videos
Although this video is 30 minutes long it was really nice and relaxing to watch just casually riding on Whistler, u are really good, keep up the good work
Easily, by far, the best Whistler video I've seen! I usually loathe this couple of weeks really annoying with almost every youtuber posting their "opening day" vids ... same old stuff from everyone so I usually watch a minute if that and move on ... but this one ... I watched it ALL!! Awesome job. Plus you have to be one of the most naturally skilled rider out there. Bonkers!
great video phil, and you're killing it in the PINKBIKE vid with all the other pro riders!!
Love the long videos! Trail sounds and chill music combined with that makes for a great video. Keep it up!
Yes, this is excellent!
mountain biking is so much fun and there's super cool people i love this sport
I didn’t even notice the length of the video... entertained and in awe the whole way through 🤘
Like your riding style. You showed these Whistler’s local riders some great lines. It shows you really enjoy riding.
I could watch these ALLDAY!!!
Great video, and the length was great. In fact, you should have added more footage of you just hanging out with the great riders you rode with. I'd love to see you see you grabbing a beer with the guys at the end of the day.
youre so amazing to your fans, really something you barely see anymore these days. keep it up man. and the awesome riding too of course
i could watch an hour of you riding the same trail over and over again
did not even realise it was that long until you said so... enjoyed every second of it!
You are such a skilled rider dude! I always knew you were good but in the videos I have seen from this years trip to the pnw I have an all new respect for you! You are so freaking rad it’s ridiculous! You owned the bike park and you seem to have balls of steel! Props to you dude! So stoked to see your upcoming videos! Keep up the good content.
Best Whistler video I've seen in a long time. You ride so gnarly. All those extra little lines is inspiring! That Duthie Gap was no joke either. I'm happy just to go from the hammock to the dirt! Hahaha
Yup! I love the long videos! This was my entertainment with dinner this evening. :)
Also, you had MY heart racing and I wasn't even the one on the damn bike lol
I could have done with an hour of that. Love watching you at Whistler!!!!
I love how Phil rides a new trail like he’s ridden it a million times! It’s honestly crazy!
I was expecting I'd be skipping through the video a bit, but I got transfixed with your crazy unique lines. Thanks for the awesome content!
awesome vid ! And all the UA-cam dudes I watch riding together? Feels like avengers assembling 😂
Holy fugg man that gap at 1:37 was nuts! Awesome!
I love the long video! Can’t get enough of your riding haha
No one else would I sit and watch a 30 minute plus video. Skills with Phil video I am like WTH?, its over already????
Amazing quality! And you most definitely got skills. Keep in up! 🤟🏿
Dude, you're one of the kings! I'm following your videos for a while, and they are getting better and better!
Awesome video! Didn't notice it was 30 mins until you said "super long video" very cool that you take the time to party ride with fans!
This is the best whis19 vid on the tubes! Keep up the great content Phil!
A 32 min Thrills with Phil video is the dream! Also, you somehow managed to capture followcam footage of a Nate Hills in the wild.. I've been curious what his riding style looked like for years! He's always behind the camera :)
He's got really good style! Very euro style, much different than mine
Awesome video man, We dont get to see big long cuts from you too often. I dig it! Thats Big Boy shreddin you guys were doing there!
Great to see you doing laps Phil. Your riding style is the best for UA-cam.
Haha, love the "why am I going up hill" bit!!
You would pass me so fast you probably wouldn't even see me.
Phil...you have been blessed with mad amazing bike skills. you are a brave and talented soul wow!
By watching your videos I can really see that you are a very talented rider and that you are an extremely nice person. keep it up!!!👌
This is a great video, I can't wait to take the family to Whistler. As well I love how you take time to ride with some of your fans while you were there, that was really cool. I have seen another youtuber (name being withheld) that told a group of fans on the trail that they would have to pay a certain amount of money in order to ride with him. Was pretty surprising when I heard that, hell everyone was already on the trail going the same way.
You really step it up Phil, and that is kick ass.
I just started following you, getting back into mt. bikes. I know the camera doesn't really show what's going on, but brother, you are crazy talented. Your commentary is on point. You make it look so easy and fun. Wish I could ride like you for just one day. Great videos.
love this whole whistler series, but my eyes are killing me from not blinking!
*SOME* awesome Patreon subscriber. IDK who that would be. (shy smile) haha Cheers dude! Awesome vid as always!
I'm not sure who that was either hehe! Thank you so much Matt!
