Pro MTBer Rides the Scariest Features at Whistler Bike Park

Yes, a week ago my sponsor GT took me to Whistler for Crankworx. Crankworx is one of the biggest event competitions in the world that I have participated in, but there were some really amazing riders in attendance that I had the opportunity to participate with and bring to them. guys for the trip before leaving, I asked my Instagram audience story. I want to know what you guys think, what are the hardest or

scariest

features

on a mountain and I want to try to hit as many of them as possible. possible throughout these next few videos, that's exactly what we're doing right, unfortunately the first day a lot of my pictures got corrupted so we're down to just one video and it's my second go around of the day, dirty traders come out with some pretty heavyweights, so that's what we're going to jump into right now.

I'm told I don't pronounce your last name very far, how do you say elude? Yes, brother, this is still said anyway, you, Meighan, I will follow you, but. Expanded quite a bit, it has some of the most intimidating jumps on the way out of the house. This was only my second run once a week. Every time you go to Whistler, it always takes me a little while to acclimatise, so this race I'm running. a little stiff but I'm also a little nervous because these guys go a lot faster than most of the people I usually ride with, so for the warm up this was a little lunch.

Hi, the trail is very good, Captain Brenden, I see the hips go up here, that's sick. He was going crazy. That thing looks like a wall the first time you hit it. pipe, it's amazing, it's not going anywhere like the real thing, back where we at, yeah, ruin a line, oh hello, if you're wondering how to hit the drink bumps, so jump over the ones that aren't suitable with the table. Brendan just has the Owen style, oh my god. Now, that's what we call proper width in the gap right there. I get tired of the top to the tree entering the bottom of a line, as I mentioned out of the blue, that was just footage I got from that day because the rest of the footage was corrupted the next day.

I met up with my good friend and now fellow YouTuber Eric Porter and of course he tried to get us in trouble. This is the lifeline of the gondola, which is usually quite short and, as you can see, it zigzags quite a bit, so even that is quite long. Eric Porter Join us today and we have a little secret trick. We'll go to Creekside, where there's no lip line, and take that elevator. We have a paddle, but we can do it. Let's find the worker who works with a pedal. It's absolutely fun. I didn't know where this would leave us.

Oh, absolutely, I want to talk about it. Manager Walsh Wort is one of the steepest rock rollers in Whistler, who is also a proline and shows how to ride it, is the thing. This is Tom. these were the owners of gravity logic, yeah man, they said oh, we're going to have to name this half of us. Nothing has my name on it and I said I was a manager at the time, so they said, oh, then we'll just call. Man boy, this is a junkie with that, I don't really know, oh yeah, you can just hit the brakes, run this one now.

I have like a GSB dunkey landing like other parts, another way to get over the lines, do two turns. Oh, Garbo, how? I always manage to lose my car the next tireless feature were both the monkey and the goats we needed to figure out how to get there cygwin nuts and I feel like I remember there's something there that well they all fly by by the way Rory and stuff you're obviously a guide, which in your personal opinion is the

scariest

or sketchiest feature in Whistler, let's say this is one of them, mentally you are very high here and you have a very early commitment point once you are on This rock like the one you have committed to overcoming that mental block is pretty big for most people, it's hard to see where the real line is because it's kind of a general line and you've been walking towards it, for a long time it's a little scary. of people, what do you think the key to this is that the pink creeps in slowly and I don't want to latch on too flat?

Just, yeah, they're not bad, just a big compression at the bottom, yeah, yeah, that's fun. CP first, done. go check out their channel and that's fine too, I think I want to see that feature real quick: the gnarliest feature of the trail on the whole mountain is the goats, leave if you climb the rock wool to the left of the bridge, it's pretty crazy Every time I do it, I think: are we going to do it this way? I think I could do it. I just don't think I feel like, oh man, I didn't think you were going to do it.

Leave it, very nice. Smooth, just jump, put the brakes down, any other Monster Trucks action, oh my throat, they almost took us out, so all those things you can't touch, your brakes went and they put some water on it. Many people, your brain loves you. just grabbing the log brakes and stuff and that's how you get in trouble, so you have to resist the urge to hit the brake to know you're looking for a circle, you know, root session to the first little seat, some brake cars. I want to do the kappa turn, he'll very well figure out it's a triple, huh.

I wonder if this is what you were talking about, since you can see the final section of the strip. Rock hump is pretty bony and the line you're going to make. You'll get out if you do the triple rock hump through those trees, although there is a long drop you go down, it's very thick and you have no photo grip on this dad's cool activator. some more actress headlines like this the drum roll the easy way why do we want it the easy way? Steep rock rolls seem to be a team working smoother do you think they remind me of falling into a fun and exciting quarter pipe and like?

There is such a good feeling of accomplishment after doing it. I think that's the most important thing when people get in trouble: they come to Whistler, they come here and I want to do the job and they come without the confidence, I think. the term I would use is you have to attack the path, you can't be in defense mode, yeah you can't go along for the ride. Oh, what is it? Oh yeah, one of the hard things about making this video is that there are so many. a lot of scary parts and

features

in Whistler and the scary ones can be different for everyone, also on our way to find more difficult area features we kept finding other ones we wanted to do, stop filming, this one doesn't scare me as much for some reason. yeah, I usually hate skinny jeans, is that true?

There might be some down there, how do you feel about leaving this? I feel like I got into this last year and thought I need to put time into this. I remember being tight and blind, do you know what I am? I have done it before. I can't get enough to do this, so the tricky part is if you want all the features to show up very quickly. It's almost like more of a dirt jump and less of a mountain

bike

trail coming from the dirt. jumping and that kind of thing I like the fact that you have to like to follow the right speed one thing we accept with us yes, very good the next one is good exactly if you touch one, you know you can get out of trouble, fortunately, Eric from somehow he got a flat tire so that was the end of his ride but we're right next to the elevator so I can unload him ready I'll call you later man yeah have fun see if we can get this from here.

I love that feature on my way down. I ran up to Tanner and his brother agreed to show me what they thought were overly scary creatures on the mountain and tell me why they thought these features were scary, why this hip is scary, I mean it's just because you're coming in with a lot of speed and go Very steep to see where you are going to land, especially if you haven't hit it before. One of the things I see a lot of people do is, instead of going straight like this, people actually make an arc, just sending it to flatten out on this feature, the straighter you come off the lip, the higher up on the landing you will land and the softer it will be, oh good nap, now the steps are a little sketchy because you have to get out pretty quickly. a mental block, people see a big jump and like they want to break the control when in reality you need to carry a lot of speed, that's a good perspective because you standing next to it only shows us how big the landing is, so this the store It sucks, you're pretty lazy, but there's nothing about it that you know isn't a good snare plate, you can send it really deep, so as far as drops go, this one is safer than a lost mile drop. , that scene is not suitable, unfortunately, I have a flat tire.

Well, question, should I hit Bertrand with the flat tire? Anyway, let's go. Here you have.
