Riding Park in the Rain / Thunder Storms at Snow Summit Bike Park / July 25, 2022

- Forecast called for thunder storms and rain by noon in big bear so we wanted to get up there to get in as many laps as possible before they shut the lifts down. When the chairs opened at 10am it was sunny so we didn't think the rain would drop til after 2pm. But the forecast was pretty spot on, right at noon thunder started striking. The rule is if there is thunder within 6 miles of the park the chair lifts will be shut down for 15 min. Each time there is thunder the timer will start over.
We spoke to the Snow Summit staff at the top once we heard the thunder and they told us the lighting was 6.8 miles away and as soon as one strikes within 6 miles they would shut the lifts down. So we decided to try to race down and get back on the lift before the storm moves within 6 miles. Unfortunately we didnt make it in time and the lifts were shut as soon as we got to the bottom. We waited for about 20 min before they opened the lifts back up. We got really lucky because more lightning struck within 6 miles and they stopped the lift again. We were actually the last riders that they let on the lift. We knew it was probably our last run since we didnt expect the lifts to re open so we decided to set up some cameras and session some jumps. We hit Muscle Beach a few times and then moved down to the bridge to set up the cameras and thats when it started dumping on us. We were soaked by the time we got to the bottom but we had a blast.
Yeah Damon HUFFMAN is a legend!!!
🤘🤘🤘
Another sweet vid Tommy. Thanks. Damon Huffman was a moto-cross stud back in the day.

I’m Damon Huffman’s son, really fun riding with you and sick video! Keep shredding 🤙
Good meeting and riding with you guys as well 🤘🤘🤘
Always a pleasure seeing you!!

Wow some rare hero dirt for Summit. Been seeing lots of dusty clips out of there lately. Nice to see the area get some rain and help the dirt out. 🤙
Yes it was much needed rain 🤘🤘🤘
Cool vid Tommy. 🤙
That was fun ripping down 10 ply with you guys! 👍 I’m sure I’ll see around.
I'm old enough to remember you. Heck I go back to Hurricane Bob Hannah days. You still TBL? Stay safe.
Yes that was fun for sure 🤘🤘🤘
Dude!!! You don't know Damon Huffman?!! You're among royalty bro!!!!
Yeah I never watched motocross before. It was really cool to take a lap with him 👌
Thanks 😊 👍
Dude, my son and I were there the day before your group.. After the rain riding was perfect., no dust and super grip. Some of the biggest rain drops I ever seen.
Yup its sick after the rain 🤘🤘🤘
Dude, when is the next group ride? Snow summit would be a great place
Nice that is a knarly right clavicle you got there!
🤘🤣🤘 yeah I've had my share of shoulder injuries
I look like I got bat wings. I need to learn to jump before I kill myself. I’m lucky I guess. At 68 my bones don’t break. I just keep dislocating things.
Your house looks especially great!
Those step ups look sick.
Yeah they are sick 💪
This is probably the best I've seen you shred man!! 🤙
Thanks brotha 🤘🤘🤘
awesome vid my bro. Thank you for sharing. Keep sharing!
Nothing like having a rip in these conditions. Makes the riding that much more exciting!
Yes 💯 I don't mind rain at all it's the thunder and lightning that sucks because they shut down the lifts
Huffman was the man on the dirtbike looks like he rips the mtn bike now. Last I heard he's a motor cop LAPD.
Yeah that was really cool to do a lap with such a legend 🤘
You guys were hauling some ass down the jump line. Good runs.
Thanks brotha 🤘🤘🤘
Great time as always! We got really lucky on the lift, made for some good footage in the rain!
Happy I was able to keep up with you guys!
I knew my camera angle was low, but it was way too low haha.

I don’t know who Huffman is either 😂. Man he rips on the MTB though.
Yeah apparently he was World Champ in the 90s 💪
Ooooo snap new video from Tommy just drop. You know it's gonna be good🤘
Thanks brotha 🙏 hope you enjoyed it 👊
@@TommyHuynh everytime brotha🙌
Honestly, I wish all that rain would dump in my local trails, Aliso, Laguna, and San Clemente Jump trails!!!
Yeah I heard we got some rain in Laguna yesterday. I didn't go but some locals said it rained
@@TommyHuynh yup. It did rain. I rode San Clemente, the rain cleaned and washed out some of the loose sediments.
No animals were harmed in the making of this video....oh wait !! LOL!!
Dude that's was so sad 🤘🤣🤘
Huffman has a pretty sweet YT channel also, check him out. Yeah dude’s a legend in the MX/SX world.
Yeah I'm stoked I was able to get a lap with a legend
Thanks man! 🤙
Sick edit the section at 12:08 seems sketch af your boys have ate it there a few times
Yeah it can be sketch when it's blown out
My buddy had a squirrel run through his spokes....he went down and the squirrel exploded
T-Rex!!!!
Damn! That sucks for the squirrel and your buddy
I’ve been meaning to ask you. When you jump it looks so seamless. Do you just ride the jump and adjust in the air? Do you preload? I try so much but when I try to hard I always jerk the bike. Great z videos as alwsys
I really don't think too much about it so it's hard for me to say. I think I kind of just ride the jump I know I adjust my weight on the jump and in the air I just try to look for transition and point my bike to the landing. I'm not a great at it so I feel silly giving advice.
your speed and the jump should push you in the direction you need to go. I would only preload if you need extra air to do a trick or something otherwise you’ll end up hucking it off the jump and overshoot the landing and have a harsh landing.
@@teckademic33 thank you!
Thunder is the worst at the park:(
Yeah it sucks they have to shut it down but ofcourse I understand. Felt bad for all those riders who waited in line and never got back up

But Daniel can rip so he can get away with it
Don't know who Huffman is, shame on you.
Hahahaha yeah I never really watched too much TV. Also he said he was champion 93, 94 and 96 I spent all those years in CYA so no ESPN in there 🤣
