Massanutten Locals Cup Round 4, 2024
Crunchy is my favorite trail at Massanutten and it was a blast to race. I need to work on my endurance and maybe find the cut throughs everyone was talking about...

Probably one of the best warm up trails at Snowshoe. Fun, fast, and flow. Bike: #commencal Supreme V5 Location: #snowshoe WV Camera: #insta360 X4

Short but interesting trail. I’ve heard it called “420”, Powder Monkey, and trail forks labeled it as “Camp 4”. Regardless, it’s a good time and finishes on Whistle Pig

Does Massanutten's New Lift Make a Difference?

Does Massanutten's New Lift Make a Difference?
A 38 sec time improvement! 🤔 🧐 Did they crash last time or something?
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.
How long did it take to ship
Maybe a couple of days? Hard to remember 😂
@@jdmtbI have one on order and it got delayed twice☹️
I definitely didn’t have delays.
Good
Legend bro! Just the video i was hoping to find on here eventually! I just got a new Cube stereo action team comes with the same as your set up amd sick of waiting for this TRP A12 to come out and had this in the back of my mind for ages will it work with the XT 12 speed and chain?! Pitty the shifter didn’t fit to the lever like the XT one does maybe a 3D printed mod can solve that at some point, anyway how has it all been working out have you had any issues with it atoll you could share? Cheers bud
No issues so far! Still had the XT chain and cassette!
Whats you're camera set up? Where's it placed?
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.
Am I the only one that thinks this looks boring? Just switchbacks and tables? No other flow.
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.
If you first loosen the 2 Allen bolts on the cranks the preload cap will come off very easily.
FYI one does not need the cassette tool for chainring removal. Just leave chain on and hold the wheel while loosening the cassette ring. And when tightening the chainring just install non driveside crank first and use that as to tighten chainring.
Thanks for the tip!
Very nice, thank you!. What is the extention tool called that u use on your torque wrench? Can't find it anywhere! Is it as also a 1/4 inch drive to 5mm hex or allen key?
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.
Yo bro they just filled those stupid doubles in😂 but are you good my boy?
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
yessir i was there
Why didn’t they run World Cup
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.
Question: If they are easily removable, are they likely to pop off if the camera falls (the situation wglhere you would really need them)? The latch system seems a little unreliable, what's your opinion on that?
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, too, am 64 and rode this trail last week. It was a blast! This was my first single-track experience. I re-started biking about 6 years ago with a peddle assist bike but I rode this on a StumpJumper. Next time I'll take the peddle assist so I can lap it.
Noice 👍🏼
This was one of my favorite trails for its mix of flow and mild chunk.
I think it’s my favorite basin side trail.
I'm 64 and rode it this week. Awesome! The facility is great too.
It's a great trail. Fast and fun!
Great video. I'm planning to visit the area soon. Does Massanutten have any good tracks for beginner/intermediate riders?
The lower trails are beginner friendly but the lift at the bottom is incredibly slow and the trails are ok.
Ok that looks really fun.
I just don't get why you didn't just pull the chain away and off the chainring in stead of destroying a chain link? (those are single use)
I'm pretty sure if you loosen the crank arm pinch bolts BEFORE you remove the preload screw, that screw will come out easier. Just a thought.
Yup. Learned that later.
Am I the only person that thinks it's rude to stop and chill in the middle of the effin trail???
Makin it look EASY! Dang man
This has been called grease monkey for the past couple years and this is only the top 25% or so. It gets steep and rooty but the new whistle pig connector cuts it off. Not yet sure how it will end up
Hi, thanks for the video! Is it necessary to remove the chainring? I think the bolts are accessible either way.
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.
Are there any glass protectors?
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”.
Where did you bought Nm wrench?
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.
That jump you said you have to squash really creeps up on you was my first time here today and i overshot it everytime and almost went otb 2 times bc i got bucked lol
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
This trail used to be loam farm. They messed it up pretty bad when they cut in the new green. It used to go all the way to the lift and get gnarly. If you like this trail, you should try 4 pistons
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
Is this a new trail or one of the non-lift access trails?
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
Powder monkey!
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
What trail is this
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.
Is pickleback chill for a beginner if they roll everything and is massanutten or bryce better in your opinion
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.
dude, atleast post the whole song instead of just 10 seconds. jesus christ. its a ffing good song, and you ruin it, doing it dirty like this.
Interesting video as I have considered this, front side? Surely the front is the none screen side?
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.
So stoked to get to Bryce soon! Haven’t been there since October. Ended up going to MC but it looks like they really did a face lift on the trails
I think the range extender is the better option, at all.
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.
Lmao I drove 5 hours and rented a place out. Weather said “maybe” some rain on Friday. This was also supposed to be my first ride on an opening day lmao. Oh well
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!
🤣🤣🤣🤣 intro got me hyped
🤣🤘🏼🤣
@4:47 I saw zero lines. Didn't even know that was part of the trail.
One started to form by race day. Going over that big rock and staying low was working for me.
My favorite trail there.
We missed you at the race! Sorry you couldn’t make it.
How much you looking to sell your x3 for now? 👀
Lost the X4 at DHSE :(. New one is on it's way though.
Great DH vid! Awesome skills you have.
Are you racing tomorrow?
Yes sir!
Heeeellllll yeah bro!
Nice
how have I just seen this? This is sick cheers dude!
