Have You Ever Heard of Morgins Bike Park? It's Incredible.

- Опубліковано 25 вер 2019
- After lapping the same track over and over setting up the brand new Scott Gambler, I headed back for a day in the park to check out all the trails on offer. Morgins bike park really is the unknown gem of the alps...but at the same time those who know really do know. Used for testing by all kinds of Pro bike riders, with minimal lift lines and fast trails it's a must do.

How does everyone like the 'trail ladder of difficulty' way of riding a bike park? Might start doing this more regularly! Oh.......are you subscribed?
Pffft, 2 videos a week?! Of course I'm subscribed. The real question is why wasn't I a member on Patreon. A question I don't have to ask myself any more :p
It's great except even the greens in Morgins are lethal in places!
ya I like the easy to hard setup up you did, a first run, second and third run of a good exciting trail so we can see how you progress. creeping down the first run... to flowing down in the third. lol I always creep my first go down especially when riding on my own
Lines aren't a thing either in Vallnord and Vallnord is one the World's 6 best bikeparks.
Paul: you cant do Morgins on a hardtail!!
Balke Samson: Hold my beer...
Wouldn't it be "Hold my beer, you beautiful people", then he goes and defies the laws of physics haha.
mrvwbug44 yeah so truep
Lol
Fantastic video.
Sidenote: Josh could absolutely ride that, on a hardtail.
Haha classic......he probably could.
@@PaulThePunter I should also mention that your riding is seriously going next level. Maybe it's the bike giving you the confidence to express your skills, or maybe BCBR changed you. Either way, it's wonderful to witness your progression.
Morgins looks sick!
I guess in Switzerland they've just got the problem that for a day trip it's too far off the usual routes.
e.g. i live in a village where i've got 1.5 hrs to go to Zürich, Luzern, Basel and Bern, so actually quite central. But to go to Lenzerheide i've got 3 hrs 15 min. If i go to Morgins i've got 4 hrs 15min. so above 8hrs of trainride to get there. All times with public transport.
I don't got to bike park for a day by car since i've got a TranZBag, bike bag that you can easily put in your backpack. So I don't have to pay for my bike in the trains. I guess inclouding traffic jam you aren't faster and you can't drink a beer or two on your way home.
Well there's always a way to make it happen! It's always worth it :)
@@PaulThePunter yeah but we have to go a full week or 10 days,something like this to see all you can make there ...... because its not only morzine to see, you have the whole valley full of trails and chairlifts.
"That's a big ol' sender, that's not for me" -also me passing most jumps! Haha! Great Video Paul!
Haha cheers my dude 👌
I'm glad to see I'm tnot the only one who can do without severe jumps and drops. I just like riding the trails and enjoys the sights and sounds of nature and not the screams of fear or pain. Haha. Nice video I like the trail progression, that's actually pretty cool.
Haha nice, cheers Wayne
Haha this is great...I live in Zürich and ride stuff like this all the time. Can totally relate to crawling down crazy steep trails, constantly on the brakes trying not to die! Def no shame in walking some parts, OTB life ain't the future...Live to ride another day. Keep it up...love the channel!
Haha I like the OTB life sentiment :) Cheers!
Thoroughly enjoyable PTP...and there is NOTHING wrong than a little self-preservation to healthily ride-on another day!!!
“This is not that channel” lol.
Haha
Super nice of Morgins. I’ve ridden morzine heaps but never made it over to morgins. It was great watching the vid and seeing the trails
Thanks chap! Get over there.
When you dropped in to the blue warm up trail I felt like I was back watching a Claudio Caluori World Cup track preview. Ah the memories.
I didn't see anything I wouldn't do on a hardtail with 120mm on the front, beautiful park indeed tho I'd love to shred it
same! (but i have 100mm)
lol yeah I'm deff not saying I would be just as fast as on my enduro or a DH bike once I know a trail, but for the "first run down something new" speed for sure, I might even prefer a hardtail for first runs... that much more confident when the bigger bike comes out to play.
@@chrisfontaine6221 yeah you would also pick your lines more carefully on a low travel hardtail which would benefit you later if you stepped up on a higher travel bike
that road gap is huge in real life ahah, i had to follow a downhill racer to get to balls to send it, and it's scary ahah
great to see you had a good time there, i went there 2 weeks ago with few friend that already knew that place and now i can say it's my favorite bikepark. no lift line, trail are in really good shape all the time (thanks to the 2/3 shapers that work there all year, one of them is a good friend of mine ahah), and the view is also amazing.
NO WAY i ski there with school, I live really close, but have never been MTBing there
There ya go! Riding is amazing.
@@PaulThePunter cant wait to get my full suspension mtb to upgrade from my scott scale 760 2016. Im thinking of a Cube 140 HPC, would that be a solid option?
@@HJCars go 4 the bigger one with 160 or 170mm of travel must be good enough for bikepark shredding
@@lowlifesplitscreen6721 i ended up going with the 140 HPC as it was at an unbelievably low price. I got the last one the store had available. 2000 CHF swiss, which is 1000 CHF less than any other store in switzerland, and thats on sale! Swiss pricing is unbelievably high, and it wouldnt be worth it to get one from germany due to the potential import costs of 300 + CHF and 200 CHF shipping. Switzerland for ya :O If I had the money a 160 would be sick but I dont
@@PaulThePunter im going soon with my new bike: Cube 140 HPC blue and black with the carbon frame and fox 34 fork 150mm , fox float dps rear 140mm
Great video on a terribly rainy day here in Qc! Thumbs up!
Glad I could provide you some drier entertainment :)
The go pro effect is definitely real here haha. When it looks steep on go pro, it is probably nearly vertical.
Great place, off the beaten track so never busy. I too have made the mistake of heading off down that black route!
Haha nice work Mark!
So how did the bike get behind you after you loaded it on the lift? Magic?!? Place looks sick!
This place looks gorgeous, and I do like the idea of progressing up through the trails, its how I tend to go in to a new place.
Nice!
@11:45 That was the trail I meant in your last video. Haha couple of years back we went in there the same way you did. We saw some guys dropping in the bushes and Kristoff gave us a tip. Was one day after riding Champery. After riding that black trail in Morgins, Champery looks like a blue flow trail.
Morgins does have epic riding and almost no lift line. Truly a hiddin gem in the Alps but it is definitely worth the trip up there from Chatel!
Keep up the good work, you should head back to ride the full Portes du Soleil sometime.
Haha yup, I read your comment and new immediately what you were talking about. I completely agree! Would love to go when it was dry.
Hi Paul, you need to ride in Châtel bike Park ! 20 minutes from morgins, you won't believe it!!!
I know for a fact that you could've ridden the black one way faster, if you believed in yourself the way you did in Queenstown. You got the skills! It's all a mental game. And we all know how it feels when you lose that game on some days.
Haha no, it’s really steep and it was very wet 😂 this is always the real world :)
Place looks great!! Like to pitch tent there and bike for a weekend!!
Get at it!
Paul definitely progressed loads on the bike in the last year
🤙
B-Roll is mint!
It's crazy to see how much you've progressed by riding this bike, great job Paul!
Cheers Olivier!
I love how there is just straight down sketch and yet you are playing some of the most chill music in the background. Ha
Haha yeah I was wondering what to do there!
@@PaulThePunter well I liked it that way. Scary comedy
Love the videos Paul! Is your Gambler fully dialed in now or still in progress? Morgin looks incredible 🤟
I haven't changed it yet! Heading to whistler this week so maybe some more compression on it as the speeds will be faster.
Great vid, always nice to watch something that breaks up the chesty footage every now and then. The go-pro effect on this was really really intense. Sometimes it looked absolutely flat. Hey, have an idea: How about a map graphic, maybe a pan out to zoom in showing where you are in the world. You know.......for us Yanks that weren't seriously taught geography in school.....
Last bit is kinda rough though, going slow because its so sketchy, so your tires arent clearing out all the mud, which makes it more sketchy, so you go slower and collect more mud etc etc.
Go Pro really does make things look flat though eh?
This is simply amazing
Sure is!
Great video and really nice looking trails. I'd definitely love to give it a crack on my hardtail. That said, I'm " not that channel" either. Love that 😂
You sounded like Austin Powers. Yes yes yes..... NOOOO. LOVE it.
I like to see the difficulty of trails in a progressive format. Great riding.
Sweet!
Being enjoying your content lately i love watching the US riders ride europe and the UK 👌🏻 have a look at revolution bike park in the UK its fucking awesome man would love to see make a vid there paul 👍🏻👍🏻
Mega! It looks easier on gopro, but probably its extremly steep and hard, isn't it? 🤘
Morgins is incredible.
Sure is!
Love your videos keep it up
Holy chest hair batman!!!! The 4 hairs i have are super jealous.
Hahahahaha
I'm a simple punter.
I see a video by Paul I click.
Niceee 👌
How do all those augs affect your riding, JC?
Freaking awesome!
Cheers 👌👌
Gnarly buddy!
Awesome video! Making me want to go visit the Swiss!
Get there!
do you reckon you could do the blue line on a stumpjumper st 130mm?
Uhhhh maybe
Just sing Paul!
k!
Rode that on my old 2013 29er Stumpjumper in 2014. 130mm and 69' head angle. Not ideal.
Hahaha sounds like a bad idea
Never heard of it but it sure looks awesome!
Yeah it's amazing!
Paul getting that bald spot lol 1:20
One day you'll see the head shaved....and you'll know I couldn't take it any more haha.
Fantastic Video!
Cheers Seth!
This looks hard. The blues at my local trails aren’t as hard as the and the blacks and reds are no where near that hard
trails look cool.
They sure do!
we need more shirtless Poual scenes on the internet.....
Just for you She Ney Ney!
Boom
goes the dynamite
hi
You need to push yourself punter
Yup yup!
Third like first comment
Heloo
Hi
It won't stay free of lines for long...
If your going to ride that bike, JUST SEND IT...
dude....seriously.....keep the chest-wig for the gf/bf
Haha nope! It's out there now, especially when it's for a bit,
Getting pretty tired of two ads every 5 minutes of video. It's not just this video, it's all of them. I got rid of cable and upped my internet speed just to watch 6-8 ads in a 15 minute video.
Well good thing all this content costs you nothing at all, as opposed to a 50-100 bux cable bill :). UA-cam Red is also available at only 10 bux a month to not see any adverts, your you can install a free ad blocker.
All these videos cost me money to produce and this is how I make a living, so I can go make these videos.....so you don't have to have cable and can even watch the things you want to watch :).
Hopefully you're having a nice day!
@@PaulThePunter of course I fully expect to watch a couple ads and I like and comment on every one of your videos I watch. But... ads have quadrupled in the past month or so. I don't understand why it jumped so much. It's to the point of complete distraction and frustration. I got rid of cable cuz of commercials, I might have to switch streaming platforms cuz of ads.
Cheers and keep up the great content.
@@PaulThePunter I recently bought a new phone in london Ontario and as soon as I activated it and logged onto UA-cam the ads quadrupled. I think it has to do with Google thinking that city was my home. I just switched it to my proper rural location, maybe that will slow down the targeting ads. I'll let you know if it helps.
@@PaulThePunter so I changed my "home" location from the city of london Ontario to my rural address and bingo... 1 to 2 ads per video. Not 6 to 10 per 15 minute video.
I know this doesnt help your revenue but at least I'll still watch yt and do what I can to support you guys from my phone.
