Yay! Recognized the Catalina’s, my home track:) However, I don’t know that spot and I ride 50 yr a lot. Probably in the other direction perhaps… Will keep an eye out for it next time out. All rocks look alike, LOL. Cheers
Nice to see that RUclipsrs also struggle sometimes 😊. Knowing that things on camera is much bigger in reality but what about the larger rock on the left side? (right side from the camera above) it looks like it could allow a straight line instead of the turn you have to perform while also getting your front wheel up the rock while also keeping your pedals level while also settling up to bring the rear wheel up…. My riding experience is that if possible straight line is usually easier even if it means getting over a slightly bigger rock 😊
Oh - that Cholla footage made me CRINGE!!!! On the other hand, I have always wanted to watch an MTB vid with mariachi music playing. I didn't know that until today!
I’ve ridden up that trail hundreds of times and I’ve only made it over once.
Once is AMAZING
Fun video! Very entertaining lol!
Thank you!!! 😊

You know, riding the other direction would be WAY more fun 🤩
That is definitely a tougher spot than the flat video lets on. Great video!
Totally! Wish we could capture the grade after the lift better, it really takes your momentum. Thanks so much! 🤘

Well now I’m intrigued! When we get back to Tucson we’ll be sure to scope that line. 👍👍👍
Everything tougher going uphill. An camera never shows how hard things are:( Great video.
So true! Haha 🤣
I drop my saddle before the approach, sprint and hop... works everytime there.
Yet another way to get over it!!! 🤣
Loved the cake reference
🤘🎂
I said it at the exact same time she did after hearing "going for speed". I've found my people.
It's almost like you need that e-bike boost ;)
😏
More speed ❤😂
Always a good idea, right? 😆
Woo hoo! Rocks!
Love me some rocks! 🪨🎉
That was a kinda count
🤣🤣🤣
Do you think having 2.6 tire up front would help with rolling over this?
That’s a great question! I honestly think speed would be our friend. And also shifting body forward to allow the rear wheel room to come up!
@@jessthemaker True.Though doing that with 2.6 up front might help. Could be a good test.
11:21 a little bit of steaze there! (Steez, stease,stease?). And 12:21👍
🤣 We'll take it! AKA "Falling with style"
Did you both watch back your attempts between tries?
That spot looks tough and probably tougher than it looks on video.
We definitely reviewed on some of the breaks between attempts! Yeah, it does not look like much on video but it's tricky!

4:31 handlebars a bit loose,
Yeah, someone forgot to torque their stem bolts when building their bike... that was a fun reminder!
More speed...
E-bikes would have been great... 😜
Doesn't count. Sorry guys.
😅😅😅 we’ll have to go back now
