I didn’t make that race so not sure. The race format is best of 2 and both of his times were within a second of each other so likely not a crash.

Maybe a couple of days? Hard to remember 😂

@@jdmtbI have one on order and it got delayed twice☹️

I definitely didn’t have delays.

No issues so far! Still had the XT chain and cassette!

Insta360 x3 in that video. Upgraded to the x4 now. I mount it to the chin bar of my full face. I think it provides the best angle but not the most comfortable lol.

I don’t disagree that it’s a lot of the same. Not a lot of thinking required and I find my mind drifting while riding it, but that’s most flow trails for me. Crunchy is my favorite at Massanutten.

Thanks for the tip!

It’s a long 5mm hex. My torque wrench takes screwdriver bits so it doesn’t use 1/4”. Hopefully that helps!

@@jdmtb thank you, that makes a lot of sense. I just found an adapter that works on my 1/4 inch wrench so all is good. Thanks again.

All good! That was last year lol. When did they fill them in?

@@jdmtb like a month or so ago I was there when they filled them in

I think it’s meant to be a bit more beginner friendly so they’re avoiding the rougher trails for now. That’s my guess.

I don’t think it would come off very easily during a fall. Both latches would need to come undone.

@@jdmtb Thanks for the quick reply.👍

I think it’s my favorite basin side trail.

It's a great trail. Fast and fun!

The lower trails are beginner friendly but the lift at the bottom is incredibly slow and the trails are ok.

Yup. Learned that later.

I couldn’t get the last one on that side without removing the chain ring. Not sure if the other models or years require it though.

Not that I could find. The new X4 does have glass lens covers though. They make these sound like they’re made of glass by calling them “glass protectors”.

I think off of Amazon, but I wouldn’t recommend it. The magnet that holds the bit in keeps falling out and I have to glue it back in each time.

@@jdmtb do you have any other recommendations?

@@k.d3lic I haven't tried any others, but you can't go wrong with park tool.

Some of them seem to send you into the bench cut too! Took me a few times to remember which ones.

@@jdmtb yeah some of them seem like they give you a bit too much speed, i was probably tired though but creamy is still an awesome jumpline best one ive rode

I’ll give it a try next time I’m there!

Is 4 piston lift accessible

@@masonchandler6495 yes. Head of trail is right at top of missing link and ball and Jack. Go under rope and it’s on your left

I think it’s an older trail that starts away from the lifts. It ends on the green trail that’s on the basin side.

Starts beside Camp 4 near powder ridge. It actually been called grease monkey for a few years and this is only the top 1/4. It gets steep af

Is that the actual name of the trail? The guy who showed it to me called it 420

@@jdmtb yep, it follows the powder monkey slope/lift

I don’t know if it has a name but the area is called the skills kitchen. It’s at the bottom of the Western Slope of Massanutten.

Not everything on Pickleback is rollable. There is a mandatory wood step up and drop. I’d say Bryce is better for beginners because it has smoother trails. Massanutten has some easy trails at the bottom that are beginner friendly but the bottom lift is very slow. Overall, I like Massanutten better because of the faster upper lift and the greater variety in trails. That’s just my opinion though 😉

Last year at bryce the lift malfunctioned and was down for about 2 hrs. Everyone who didnt want to wait was comped a free day. I get trail closures are annoying especially if you are traveling to a place and paying to ride. However this is all part of a good dh park. Unlike the one closest to me that does virtually no trail maintanice during the season to the point of recklessness. If a trail is closed it is most likly a safety concern. That said a updated closure list online or otherwise would be nice but closing a trail right before the park opens is common at all lift parks if the staff deems it so. Its all chance that you take going to pay to ride places.

I thought the same thing but it was the screen side. It fits either way but easier to fit with the side labeled front on the screen side.

Other reasons to remove the battery would be to route cables or replacement of a faulty battery. I wouldn’t recommend trading batteries to extend the range. Way too much work. The extender is a better option for sure.

Man, sorry to hear. I was hoping they’d open on Sunday. Massanutten closed too.

@@jdmtb yup… bummer, but I get it. Hopefully Massanutten opens today

@@Willy-ig7nw they’re open. Creamy is closed but may open later in the day. See you there!

One started to form by race day. Going over that big rock and staying low was working for me.

We missed you at the race! Sorry you couldn’t make it.

Lost the X4 at DHSE :(. New one is on it's way though.

Yes sir!
