The Best Flow Trail in Phoenix
Hitting up the locals favorite trail system, Hawes. Ride along with me as I bomb down the newest addition Big Sister. This trail offers tons of flow and some extra credit drops and table style jumps. At only one mile, it is short but sweet and can be lapped multiple times by peddling up one mile of Twisted Sister.

Red Mountain Rush, Hawes Phoenix, Stabalized POV
Просмотров 3562 года назад
In this video we ride my daily driver. The loop I typically do most weeks. I start just as the sun crests the mountains and climb all the way up a trail called L'ape D'Huez or Alp for short. At the top we traverse the mountain ridge on Goat Trail which takes us to the piece de resistance, Red Mountain Rush. Rush starts off technical and steep with amazing views of the valley towards Four Peaks ...

Gooseberry Mesa, The Prettiest Trails In America?
Просмотров 8284 года назад
This adventure starts on the top of the mesa at a tiny little camp sight facing East with immaculate views of Zion National Park. I head off on a short sunset ride to warm up and get ready for the next morning. A stunning moonlight filled night passes with a short but very aggressive wind storm. Finally Morning arrives and I clean up then head off on a ride. Every corner is mind blowing. Stunni...

Biking is great for socializing but it can also be an amazing way to spend some alone ...

Starting from Rach Trail 62 we climb slowly up through some grassland with fiery bushes strewn all over. After a short while the temperature drops as we make our way into a shaded canyon. Up we go over the mountain till we hit the start of Badger Mtn. Trail. Lots of fun fast flow through this section. Slithering along the side of the mountain down into a small ravine we find ourselves trapped w...

The Sweet and Juicy Flow of Sidewinder
What a great video!! Would you recommend starting in the south, going all the way north and then going down south again?
Thank you! Hawknest is great as an out and back as you described. It can also be nice to take other trails from Pima Dynamite parking all the way to the NE corner of Brown's Ranch then ride Hawknest back to the Pima Dynamite Parking. The flowers are just starting to pop up so be sure you check it out sometime in the next 2-3 weeks before the flower fade. Have a great ride!
I'm planning on riding this trail tomorrow but I'm not 100% sure where the trailhead is. I know it's somewhere off power road but do you have any pointers? Great video by the way!
The closest parking is Wild Horse Trailhead Parking. If you ride up Twisted Sister it will bring you to Big Sister. Have fun!
If you are up for a longer killer ride. Try parking at the NRA Pit and riding up L'ape De Huez and riding down Red Mountain rush. Then go over to Twisted Sister and Big Sister and take Wild horse back to your car. That is a killer ride.
@@devincrighton4376 thanks brother can't wait we'll leave it better than it is preciate it.
Great video! Nicely done!
Thank you!
You earned a subscriber and I’m gonna come back and try to build a jump like this tomorrow thanks for the help
You are very welcome. Thank you for checking out my channel.
Helpful video might make somthing bit bigger tho
I’m your 400th subscriber
Killer! Thank you for subscribing, I need to get my butt in gear and post some more videos!
You did some great videography..looks awesome.
Thank you I really appreciate it. Looking forward to showing you Big Sister and Red Mountain Rush.
Super nice
Stabil
Hello thankyou so much for this, it was helpful for me, for making my own ramp Godbless sir🙌🏻
My pleasure!
What is the height and length of the side piece?
You can make a ramp whatever dimensions you want as long as you have a 10ft+ radius and the base is substantially long you should be fine. I recommend following the link in the description for the plans of this ramp. The plans are written so they efficiently utilize 1 sheet of plywood. For the ramp in the plans the length is 48" and the height is 15".
Great video looks fun do you have a map of this trail on Strava or all trails? If not what’s it called and how do I get there?
Thank you, it is called Hawksnest on the Trailforks app. Have fun.
Where is this?
This is Gooseberry Mesa it lies East of Hurricane Utah just West of Zion National Park.
haha thats awesome, cheers bro
those cacti tho!
some pretty saguaros for sure!
@@devincrighton4376 wish we had those in Kentucky
Nice edit! And awesome riding too
Thank you, happy you enjoyed!
We need to see more of the dog
He used to run with me on trails all the time back in Idaho. All of the Phoenix metro has leash laws so it is hard to take him riding now. I will see what I can do.
Did you have a gyroscope/stabilizer for the under seat shots ? Neat angle, haven’t seen that before..
Nope, I didn't use a gimbal for any shot in this video. I opted against it since I would be standing most of the time and I wanted to show the bike movement more clearly. Gimbals smoothen the video out but also dum down the lean of the bike.
This is the most entertaining video of Big Sister I have seen yet. Looks like a blast and work a drive to the east valley.
Awesome, I am glad you find it entertaining. It means a lot to me to see positive feedback. Hit me up if you ever come out East, it would be a pleasure to ride with you.
Nice ride. You caught a lot of the wildflowers. Great time of year to ride the Sonoran Desert. Liked the way you interspersed the scenery with the ride. Well presented. I like riding Browns/Pima-Dynamite.
Thank you, It makes me happy to see people enjoy my videos. I puposely road this trail on that specific day because it was in the middle of the spring bloom. It is hard to beat the beauty of the McDowell Sonoran Preserve during spring bloom.
Awesome video! What camera are you using? This footage is great!
Thank you, I am glad you like it. I am currently using a GoPro Hero 7 with Hypersmooth 2.7K @ 60fps mounted to a Feyutech gimbal and a GoPro chest mount.
Oh, also I slap a ND8 or ND16 filter on if I am filming a trail primarily into the sun
Thanks for the video going to try and build a mini half pipe cheers Devin
You are welcome. With regards to a half pipe I recommend turning the 2x4's so the short side matches up to the riding surface since they will see much more stress on a larger longer ramp. Also depending on how wide you make it you may want to do 2x6's to ensure the ramp doesn't deflect or have strength issues. Best of luck!
please don't follow this guys instructions!! There are much easier ways of doing this.. Sorry
I respect your opinion and would love if you could post a video and share your design. I find this method is a good balance between cheap, sturdy, and easy to assemble, but I am always happy to learn something new. I look forward to seeing your video!
@@devincrighton4376 The design isn't the issue, its the way you assembled it and the order you assembled it in, there are many videos on youtube where they are using the correct method and order, if you watch it back I'm sure you will be able to figure out where you could of made it easier for yourself and your viewers that will be attempting this..
Is a 19in ramp too high for my 10 yr old? He's good on his bike with riding wheelies and jumping his selfmade dirt slopes.
It is hard to say because I haven't seen your child ride. It is likely if they can jump and land safely on a 12-15" ramp then they are ready to step up to something like 18-20" but this high puts much more stress on your ankles and knees when landing on flat. Make sure they land on a down slope or build a landing to avoid injuries. Hope your child has lots of fun and rides safe. Thank you for checking our my videos!
Thank you!
My pleasure!
What brand of shoes is that at 6:00?
The yellow shoes are Specialized Comp Mountain Bike Clipless Shoes. I have ridden them for about 5 years now and they have been great.

Hail Nimrod! lol
Dog 😂🤗❤️ Nice videos
Thank you, Ash is a loving, loyal dog that likes to follow me around and chase shadows.
Now in 2021: a $2,000 ramp
LOL, no joke! Wood is crazy right now. The plywood where I am is like $65/sheet right now and 2x4s are $8 each. Way more expensive than back when I made this video. Hopefully the prices of wood will go down again sometime soon.
What height did you end out with on the jump. Guess lenght is ... 1 bike lenght.
Are you wondering how far and high I would jump off it? or how tall and long the ramp is? I don't have the ramp anymore but I think it was around 20" tall and 50" long and I could jump up to two bike lengths at maybe 3.5ft high. Although this took me a couple weeks before I was hitting it fast enough to get that far.
Thanksvfor sharing video how to make a jump
thank you so much
you are welcome!
I’m only 12 years old do you think this is to difficult for a kid like me to make idk it looks like a fun project for me to work on
I definitely think it is something you should have the ability to make with supervision from an adult. Make sure you have an adult help you if you are using power tools and wear your personal protective equipment like safety glasses. Better yet work on it together with your parents as a fun family activity.
Great video! I am going to build a jump now and I just subscribed.
Awesome! Best of luck I hope you have lots of fun on your jump.
Nice sunset 👍👍👍
Sunrise 🙂, but I agree very nice.
Oh my god I Love Hawes
It is the best. IMO it offers the most fun for the average rider than anywhere else in the valley. Especially with all the new updates to the East side. Red Mtn. Rush is awesome!
you really have too few followers
thank you, glad you like the videos.
when i saw your content i thought you have like 10k followers
Good content!
Appreciate the feedback!
Nice
Thank you
Nicejuan.. Thanks for sharing how to build ramp
My pleasure, thank you for checking out my video!
Going to the Ranch right now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nice, enjoy don't get too hot. It's a warm day today.
Thanks for posting this! We did did this ride along with Diablo and had a great time.
Awesome, both are great trails. Glad you had a wonderful time riding.
The song: we’ll be right back
I like ur surname
Its the same as mine
That is cool!
hello fellow Demolitia!
Hello!
Shout out to next video
Great video. I'm sorry to learn about your rib injury from the comments. I hope you are feeling better and better each day. Don't ride any roller coasters for a year or more, avoid reinjury. I fully empathize with your pains. Thanks again for this really nice video.
Feeling much better now. All healed up. I am glad you enjoy my videos. Hope to see you out on the trails. Cheers!
Just came across your channel! I was wondering if you could do a tutorial on how to do a bike jump without a saw or any complex stuff. Just a kid and I want to build one at home!
That sounds like a fun challenge. If I think of a cool way to create a simpler jump with no tools I will definitely make a video for you.
@@devincrighton4376 thanks!
The only bad thing is the cutter thing is like 200 bucks lol
You can get a cheep jig saw on amazon for $25 that would be sufficient for this project. www.amazon.com/BLACK-DECKER-Jig-Amp-BDEJS300C/dp/B00OJ72L84/ref=sr_1_6?dchild=1&keywords=jigsaw&qid=1609555640&sr=8-6. You can also use a hand saw for the 2x4 cross cuts. Hope this helps.
Ah, you HAVE been to Preskitt! Awesome. Ranch is one of my favorite trails. Subscribed!
Haha yeah, I love the trails in this area. Long gradual climbs with long flowy descents!
