What a video. Perfectly captures what me and my buddies feel nearly every time we ride! Nothing like a MTB to make you feel like a kid again. Well done.
Awesome video .... I like the fact that you made it about that we can all have that moment on our individual mtb journey Ryan 🙏. Congrats James ....Legend!
Awesome vid!!! I knew when I saw those flashes you where letting us know something was comming up. This isn’t just filming, this isn’t just riding, this is storytelling. And that’s an ART
I appreciate the execution of measuring the jumps on that trail. We all know they’re big, but didn’t realize how big. Looking forward to the day when we get a proper blue jump line on the mountain.
I loved watching you guys do a whole bunch of stuff that I will never ever do. It was inspiring, and it makes me want to go out and get on the bike. But I was almost brought to tears when you gave that kid all that wonderful stuff. You made his whole freaking month! I loved it.
I've hit the first gap on the pro-line, by far scariest jump I've done. After two successful hits on the first one we went down then back up for another lap. I was hyping myself up for the second 50ft gap. Then I proceeded to brake check the first gap and have the worst case of my life. Needless to say I called it for the day and thinking about it now, I don't think I will ever be comfortable riding jumps that big, just feels unnatural to me. Props to James for hitting them both. Its a huge accomplishment. Keep up the great videos!
That video was amazing! Great job capturing the feeling of the day and the stoke of what is bike riding! Glad I could convince James to send the mega pro jump! 🎉
Go on my son. Well done, excellent. Me and my USA fiancé a saving up for our specialized status 160 enduro bikes, even at age 52 and age 50. Like I told you she's an expert BMX flatlander. I'm an expert ADHD lunatic. Lol. We've almost finished re-shaping, raking all the trails, dirt jumps in Clyne Valley, Swansea City, Wales, UK. We've just got to trim the hedge growth back slightly over them with our petrol hedge cutters. They look awesome, new trails being build to, plus a 40 foot step down. We've re-opened and salvaged some old trails to. Their up and running. Excellent jump, it all starts with jumping off street curbs, to 40 feet dirt jumps at breakneck speed. That's how I started on Raleigh drop handle in the late 70's, then my Raleigh BMX burner in the early 80's off walls, car bonnet's (hood's), scaffolding planks and old kitchen doors on top of house bricks. Well done kid. God bless.
goddamn I'm getting emotional on my lunch break lol. Nah this was inspiring as hell. Amazing job James, I knew you'd get this good and more. Ryan you bastard adding in the cracked ribs having me holding on to that last jump like it was a last minute game winning touch down with seconds left on the clock.
Whoa This was brilliant! I see what you did here :-) spiced in all the content creator ingredients. Story, conflict, hook, emotion, retention, personalization engagement. Outstanding.. i'm taking notes.
What a great episode Ryan! Love your videos. Especially when they feature the trails here around Calgary and Canmore. I've never been down all of Flight 66. Just the lower part. Perhaps one day! Amazing accomplishment James!
my longest was 30' on bmx, and now I am into mtb, and ive already dont a 28'. Going to do more gap drops now, hopefully can get a squishy frame soon. Running hardtail specialized pitch. Upgraded the HT, to press in EC44 to 1.5' converter on bottom bearing to convert it for tapered forks. Then stuck rockshox recon 130mm, with a stans no tube hugo front, and that was a massive upgrade. I run very high pressures in my forks, so when im doing drops or anything ill never bottom out. Running like 130ish psi in the fork. I just love mtb been doing it for about 5 months or so , and coming from 25 years in extreme sports, DH is literally the best feeling ever!
Love this guys! What an inspiration. Great job y'all! 🤙🏻 As someone who's just learning how to ride my mountain bike at 43, I can identify with the feeling of learning something new in the pursuit of progression. Cheers bros! 🤙🏻
I am head first into dirt jump riding for the same reason. First it was to get better at mtb jumping but now i love working big jump lines and working up the progression.
was so nice video. just one suggestion: maybe a slomo of the jump would have been super sick at the end of the video. it all happened so fast thanks for your amazing honst content
Great vid.... I need to get my jump confidence back, after a crash pretty much killed it... Wasn't even that bad a crash, got bucked... It had been going great til then... 🤦♂️😕😞
Great video as always. Hoping you can give a little advice on the Michelin Tires. As with all lines of tires, there's so many options. What would you recommend for a guy who rides an enduro bike, likes the parks, but spends a lot of time on the local Edmonton trails?
Great video... I'm pretty lucky I get to ride moose pretty much weekly but I've never hit that but I know how massive it is and the video doesn't do justice... Broke my wrist further down the trail last year and it's got more than a couple victims. Also, thanks for upping the bar needed to hitch a ride up from a beer to a $600 prize pack 😂
Nice work Ryan…vids are getting better every time. That said, you’re not “bumbling” down the mountain anymore 😂
I'm glad someone said it lol

Awesome video .... I like the fact that you made it about that we can all have that moment on our individual mtb journey Ryan 🙏. Congrats James ....Legend!
Listening to EVERY ONE of you reacting to his success was the best feeling this morning! Time to go ride my bike 🤘🏼
Awesome, awesome vid, thank you! And congratulations to James, that was sick!
The twist at at the end was unfortunate - sorry to hear about your ribs!
Awesome vid!!!
I knew when I saw those flashes you where letting us know something was comming up.
This isn’t just filming, this isn’t just riding, this is storytelling. And that’s an ART
Dang. I ruined it for myself lol. I thought the video was busted lol.
I appreciate the execution of measuring the jumps on that trail. We all know they’re big, but didn’t realize how big.

Absolutely epic!!! You guys nailed the feeling of that moment!!! Congratulations to James! Your videos are the the best out there!
Love the fight club esq image inserts
Great video!! I was cheering for him and hope your ribs heal up soon!!

Been a sub for a few years, watched pretty much everything you have in your catalog. This is probably the best work you have done. Congrats James.
Great comment. Thanks 🙏
Awesome job James! And great job with the video. Really puts you in the moment when he nails it
beautiful work! Touched the bottom of heart of everyone who loves MTBing.
That video was amazing! Great job capturing the feeling of the day and the stoke of what is bike riding! Glad I could convince James to send the mega pro jump! 🎉
Couldn’t have done it without you brother 🎉
You just made that kids year!! So cool!
The segway from last week's statement to this week's banger is smooth as can be.
Awesome video and great vibes all around. Good luck and heal up so we can all enjoy riding alongside you again.
Man your video edits are next level. Great to see the passion for MTB shine in these videos.
Damn, awesome vid. Literally got chills when he sent the last one. Way to go James!!
Another amazing video from the channel, truly a feel-good mountain biking video.
Go on my son.
Well done, excellent.

God bless.
That was a weirdly emotional experience. (Well done fellas. Fav bike channel on UA-cam right here.)
Loved those old clips of the fam! God I miss biking already 😢
Just bumbling over a 40’ gap jump😂. Great vid, really enjoyed the story.
Now that's what I'm talking about. That was inspiring. Way to go James

This is why we ride bikes in the woods! Killer video!!

Thanks buddy 🎉
Solid storytelling and editing 👌
You put so much effort into your vids and they are consistent, keep grinding ❤
Literal chills. Tugging at the heart strings
Amazing, had the biggest smile watching that send.
Hahaha man, that outro had me laughing my ass off, great editing. Sorry about the crash Ryan, heal up!
Absolutely love this. I love the way you take us on a journey that we can all relate to.
Glad you enjoyed it!
such a great accomplishment!
Yoooooo Darcy’s the homie!
What a great episode Ryan! Love your videos. Especially when they feature the trails here around Calgary and Canmore. I've never been down all of Flight 66. Just the lower part. Perhaps one day! Amazing accomplishment James!
Wow, Content, Storytelling, just the way you put this video together, its all very good. Better than most.
Great vid…..perfectly captures the emotions felt when we venture beyond our MTB trail comfort zone…and survive to tell the story.
Awesome video guys! Great tie in with the old video clips & music.... Great content! 👌🏼🤙🏼

such a great well put together video.
Damn dude! Great video. Perfect feeling of what it’s all about. I’m definitely not at this level but someday…thank you for this!
Love this guys! What an inspiration. Great job y'all! 🤙🏻 As someone who's just learning how to ride my mountain bike at 43, I can identify with the feeling of learning something new in the pursuit of progression. Cheers bros! 🤙🏻

Top notch production and inspiration!!
Great video man! I love the flashback watermarks!
Awesome story, awesome production! This is far beyond the average content creation!
This. This is how you create Inclusive, inspiring content. Building each other up, rather than tearing each other down.
Well done, lads! 👏 👏👏
Woohoo! Way to go James! Rest up Ryan!
Amazing video, well done, and thank you.
love you guys - thanks for the amazing videos
Wow, your words at 9 min
. Chills.. thats so well said!
Favorite channel
Beauty Ryan, nice touch with the first bike footage 👊
The story telling in this video was soo good, awesome job!
What a feeling! This is why mountain biking is the best!
Wow! Truly spectacular! The man has balls bigger than my head. Taking "Stand Up To The Jump" to a whole new level!
Awesome Vid 😎 Good Job
Epic epic video 🤘 emotions and everything 🔥
Awww man, great video...love it!
“Don’t bomb it. Just let the jump do the jump”. 👍😎
was so nice video. just one suggestion: maybe a slomo of the jump would have been super sick at the end of the video. it all happened so fast
thanks for your amazing honst content
Great stuff!!
Excellent!
This is 🔥
Hey Ryan - SUCH a great video, thank you! Really sucks about the accident, hope you're doing ok
I see what your saying about work of art.
Banger of a trail, shame there is an ocean and lots of mountains between us.
Truly a beautiful ride of a story.
Great vid.... I need to get my jump confidence back, after a crash pretty much killed it... Wasn't even that bad a crash, got bucked... It had been going great til then... 🤦♂️😕😞
Is this video Pinkbike approved?
Great video as always. Hoping you can give a little advice on the Michelin Tires. As with all lines of tires, there's so many options. What would you recommend for a guy who rides an enduro bike, likes the parks, but spends a lot of time on the local Edmonton trails?
Sick jumps but making that kid's day was the best part!
I love this. Raaaaaad!!!!
Great video... I'm pretty lucky I get to ride moose pretty much weekly but I've never hit that but I know how massive it is and the video doesn't do justice... Broke my wrist further down the trail last year and it's got more than a couple victims.
Also, thanks for upping the bar needed to hitch a ride up from a beer to a $600 prize pack 😂
when he was in the air it gave me chills
With all the "bumbling" comments you've stirred up, you guys should do a run of Tshirts.
"Bumbler and proud of it"
or something.
PS, awesome episode.
Love this Video !!!!
these jumps are absolutely wild
Pinkbike crew will say the vid is a tictok dance and won't allow it to post on yt😄
Stoke + inspiration 🎉🎉
Super nice video. And yes, I kept waiting for the crash… only to get surprised by you!? Hahahahaha, sorry man - swift recovery!!
Not gonna lie, you had me going there with the "cracked ribs." I'm glad the story went in a positive direction instead.
This was a good video!
great video!
fantastic video.
Well it doesn't look tiny on camera, that's the kind of feature I avoid when I'm far from home, unless I'm lured in by following someone 😂
Dayum bruh!!!
I see that you are bumbling down a mountain bike trail. How dare you!?
That was epic!
Hell yeah!
oh no ! Are you ok now?
Beautiful
Stand up to the jump has seen me cover over 35ft jumps... According to my garmin😄😋
im 14 years old and really want to move to canada, mainly for the bikes, and was wondering how james feels about it as he is also from britain?
Hey mate. It was the best decision of my life, I’ve never looked back. This country is truly fantastic 🎉.
@@Jamesyshreds thanks! i went to whistler this summer and it just seems so amazing!
