Super rad watching you shred national, even in an older vid. The fact that you ran this basically blind speaks volumes to your handling and overall skill on a bike. Super impressive, Jeff!
Oh thanks dude! Yeah that was years ago! And the whole family was just coming down with the flu- I started to feel pretty bad part way down the hill, it was a weird day and trip with a sick partner and kid! Man that was a long time ago!!!
My childhood house is next to the entrance of this trail. I spent most of my youth in the 80's hiking and biking that trail. Thanks for the memories. I sure miss home!
It's so much fun watching you ride trails I've been on before. I had the privilege of riding here last week and it was one of my favorite trail areas ever. Now... time for me to work on those manuals through the s turns...
Oh sweet, glad you liked South Mountain! I thought it was fun, but not very steep. We get spoiled with really, really steep trails here in the PNW! One day I'll manage to properly film an S turn manual, they take a lot of core strength to really pull off! Thanks for watching!
Agreed, not much steep, but I sure enjoyed the punchy climbs. For some stupid reason I was entirely out of breath the while time I was climbing there. I def need to ride more pnw. I enjoyed tiger mtn when I was out there last, along with squamish, but I need to explore more trails there. @dustybetty and I will be out there this summer again. Can't wait.
Super rad video Jeff. I actually rode that trail today. Met a couple riders at the top of the waterfall and chatted about Rob’s video where he climbed it. You guys killed it.
Great job Jeff and welcome to Phoenix. That Trial will totally put your gimbal to the test, I thought you lost it for a moment on the waterfall. Great riding as usual. Keep it up!
Jeff, this trail had super nice flow...gotta ride a desert trail sometime will be the first for me, looks so sketchy and you make it look so easy lol....thanks for sharing man super fun!
Awesome riding. You guys smoked it on the final descent on National. That’s where I just broke my ankle three weeks ago. Love showing off our local trails.
"Someone's gotta be the anchor". lol. Sick riding as usual. That was gnarly for sure. #trailboss worthy for sure. You gimbal doesn't sound too happy though.
That is some seriously sick riding. That guy in front of you was really fast! Oh I now see it was Rob Drew...no wonder. He has most of the KOM’s on that trail. South Mountain is a sweet place to ride...but you can get seriously jacked up trying to ride it like you guys do. Mad skills!
Rob is a shredder! Yeah, glad we didn't have any crashes, between the cacti and the rocks, it wouldn't be a safe place to crash by any means! Thanks for watching, Jimmy!
A great day on the bike... a bad day to be your GoPro haha. Man you guys were sending it! Poor Bryan had to deal with me picking me way down that waterfall a few weeks back :D
It was a good day! I had actually just caught the flu, and I ripped the derailleur off my bike at the end of the trail, but otherwise, it was rad! We had a little rain to get that legendary grip on the DG happening, so lucky!!!
A little bit different, eh? It might be fun to do some "climbing challenges" like Lenosky does, but I don't wanna cramp on Jeff's style! He's a great dude!
Nice video Jeff. You guys were going very fast through some very technical stuff. It looked to me that Rob either knew the trail really well or had a little better bike than yours. Great fun!
This is Rob's home trail, and he was on a big 'ol enduro bike. I was struggling to keep up, not only is Rob super fast, but I was coming down with the flu and I'm riding a tiny little bike that's small enough for my wife and I to share. Maybe next time I'll be able to stay on Rob's wheel, but maybe not!
Hey Jeff - If you're still in phx, check out Voaz trail, & 1A up to circumference trail over at Phx Mt preserve - Trail 100. Things should be pretty sticky still from the rain the other day.
Hi Ride Labs, that bike is built with a Fox 34 140 fork, a Shimano M8000 XT 1x11 grouppo with XT brakes, a Fox Transfer post, and Ibis 742 wheels with WTB Convict tires.
Hi Jeff... So I have a Mojo 3 and an HD 4 but may just keep the Mojo. I live on South Mountain. What upgrades if any would you think would be the best for the Mojo 3. I primarily ride DC for my Xc and Mormon Natty and the rest for the fun stuff.
Oh man, are you on the east coast? Crazy weather lately. This is only my second "real" winter ever, and it's been nice to get into the gym a bunch more, makes the days that we can ride that much more special!
Any of them would work fine. The Mojo 3 was more fun on the climbs than the other two would have been (so tiny and nimble, easy to throw around), the Ripley would have been great for all the flat stuff between the rock features, and the HD4 would have been great on the descent and the steep rock ups.
Hey Honda, that bike in the vid is actually a Mojo 3. But I've been using the same Ibis 742 wheelset for both bikes, and at the moment, I'm REALLY digging the WTB Convict 2.5 Tough High Grip in front/WTB Convict 2.5 Tough Fast Rolling rear. They were especially good in Phoenix, and work much better on the 29-35mm rim widths than on narrower rims. I like the Convicts here in the PNW as well, but they aren't quite as grabby as the Vigilante combos in the muck. However, on anything dry, they are more predictable than the Vigilantes.
Trail looks amazing man! Looks like your gimbal needs to be serviced, or maybe you should borrow from Jordan Boostmaster's idea of adding a few pennies to the gimbal to balance it out so that it stays level better. Not being critical...just know how annoying stuff like that can be when you go look at footage and say, "Oh crap...that looks like ass, and it was right on the coolest part!" Richard, Rob's brother, rides here in Northwest Arkansas very frequently, and he's fast. Not suprised that his brother is a rocket too. Thanks for the trail recap. We've been contemplating a trip to AZ, and this helped tilt the scale toward doing it! COOL trail, and amazing riding by both of you guys.
Thanks Willbro, that's a great tip on the pennies. I'll check his vid to see the deets! Have been considering a trip to Bentonville myself, but kind of far for this year. Maybe next year. And yes, definitely go to Phoenix for a day, but spend a few days in Sedona while you're out there!
Sedona is the location we're headed to. Two buddies rode out there last spring, and LOVED it. Cheap airfare to Phoenix, and then we'll just rent bikes and ride for a few days. I'm just ready for somoene to release a camera that stabilizes the footage and eliminates the gimbal. The new Rylo seems to do that to some extent, but there are still some limitations with it. Do you use the EVO SS and standard GoPro, or another brand of wearable Gimbal? I'm still on the Feiyu Tech and session. I've put off upgrading...hoping a "gimbal free stabilizing camera" comes out!
Hey Willbros, Sedona is rad, and your plan will be killer! Dave Cichan at the Fat Tire in Sedona has taken GREAT care of us in the past, though all the shops up there are good. I use the Karma grip gimbal and a Hero 4 Silver. The Hero 6 has pretty good internal stabilization, but it's nowhere near as good as the Karma grip. I do think the Hero 6 on the helmet, combined with some high end stabilization software, could work just fine, and am thinking about trying that for a 2nd angle option. It just takes time and money!
Thanks for the recommendations. One thing I LOVE about your videos is that you sincerely address the hikers on the trail, and even thank them for the space. ALL mountain bikers should do that, on camera or not! The buddies who went rented Evil bikes when they were there, and I'll have to ask them the shop name...might be the same one. The Karma is bulky for sure. I am worried about what's going to happen if I ever take one of those "quick diggers" where you're OTB and on the ground wondering, "WTH just happened?" only now, my sternum is probably broken in three places due to the Feiyu Tech gimbal. I don't care about 360* views...I just want good stabilization in one unit with no gimbal, with good image and audio quality. I think we're getting close to someone releasing one!
I've hit my sternum really hard with a GoPro before, it didn't break but sure hurt like heck for 8 weeks. Gotta be super appreciative to all users we share the trails with!!! As MTBers, we have the weakest voice in trail access, so gotta kill them with kindness. I don't have any shop recommendations, unfortunately.
You need to hook up with guys like Seth's bike hacks, Alex the single track sampler and phil metz. That would be dope! Your channel should get way more subs and views....IMO.
Would be cool indeed! I'm catering much more to the hardcore MTB audience than those guys, but would LOVE to collab with all them! I just did a project with Jeff Lenosky the other day, and will try to make it out to Asheville at some point this year!
Those guys are pretty hard core. I know Seth rode with Nate Hills which was inspiring to watch. I just think it will give you some good exposure. I'm looking at it from an eye ball perspective. They do have loyal followings and seem to be really good guys. Couldn't hurt!
BRO!!!! i need to lose some fucking weight so i can ride singletrack like this! i have enjoyed DH so much i gained a bunch of weight. 4:15 GET SOME! by skipping this section lol You could do that cleaner, u know you can! Next time have your buddy record off to the side and make sure the sun isn't facing the camera so we get all the epicness!!!!
Yo Jeff Kendall-Weed, Nice video ! We are french riders, we work with the filmmaker GoldenHelmets, can you give us a review/commentary of our channel ? ;)
Jeff Kendall-Weed I think it’s just your riding style, and how much you move around on the bike. The gimbal hit your bars/stem a lot. I think that the gimbal was messed up after that from the repeated hits.
It frequently loses the horizon regardless of the big g-outs and hitting the bars, someone mentioned a trick with balancing the gimbal better, I'll try that. It doesn't hit much on descents, much more on climbs, and they are not hard impacts.
Super rad watching you shred national, even in an older vid. The fact that you ran this basically blind speaks volumes to your handling and overall skill on a bike. Super impressive, Jeff!
Oh thanks dude! Yeah that was years ago! And the whole family was just coming down with the flu- I started to feel pretty bad part way down the hill, it was a weird day and trip with a sick partner and kid! Man that was a long time ago!!!
Unbelievable. What a ride. You can honestly say climbs like a Billy goat. Another great video! !!
My childhood house is next to the entrance of this trail. I spent most of my youth in the 80's hiking and biking that trail.
Thanks for the memories. I sure miss home!
That guy NAILED it at 4:14
Man, I've heard a lot about this trail but never watched any video. This was so cool!!
Thanks Brian! You'd love it, it's super rocky, but still very flowy. Not quite as exotic as Africa though!
National is like a mini moab right in our backyard. You'd love it!
That was awesome! That trail was super techy and you guys worked it over.
Thanks Eugene! Rob knew lots of cool sniper lines!!!
What a ride! Bit of everything in that one. It’s not fair that you shred so well on the ups AND downs! 🤟
Hahaha thanks Andy! It was a fun morning indeed!!!
It's so much fun watching you ride trails I've been on before. I had the privilege of riding here last week and it was one of my favorite trail areas ever. Now... time for me to work on those manuals through the s turns...
Oh sweet, glad you liked South Mountain! I thought it was fun, but not very steep. We get spoiled with really, really steep trails here in the PNW! One day I'll manage to properly film an S turn manual, they take a lot of core strength to really pull off! Thanks for watching!

Super rad video Jeff. I actually rode that trail today. Met a couple riders at the top of the waterfall and chatted about Rob’s video where he climbed it. You guys killed it.
Thanks Joey! How was the dirt today? It had rained the night before this vid, and we had amazing conditions!!!
Jeff Kendall-Weed not quite hero dirt, but one of my best rides on that trail.
Brrrrraaaaaaapppppp!
Amazing video Jeff!
Thanks for sharing
Thanks Tommy!
Great job Jeff and welcome to Phoenix. That Trial will totally put your gimbal to the test, I thought you lost it for a moment on the waterfall. Great riding as usual. Keep it up!
Thanks Brink!!! Phoenix was fun! Can't wait to get back!!!
Not enough videos of techy ups. This is awesome!
Thanks DirtWire! Not as exciting as mega hucks, but super fun!
Jeff, this trail had super nice flow...gotta ride a desert trail sometime will be the first for me, looks so sketchy and you make it look so easy lol....thanks for sharing man super fun!
Thanks Monster!
What a good video Jeff. Superfast, fun and a lot of chunky rocks hahaha. You are by far my favorite rider dude!
Thanks Znogac, that's a great set of trails there in Phoenix!
Nice riding as always JKW. This is the exact type of trail I love. Lots of techy moves and alternate lines.
Sweet, glad you liked it Brian! Thanks for watching!
Awesome riding. You guys smoked it on the final descent on National. That’s where I just broke my ankle three weeks ago. Love showing off our local trails.
OUCH! Sorry to hear about your ankle!!! Heal up quick! There were several sketchy spots on that descent!
Rob threw down some nice lines I haven't seen on Nat'l. You guys made it look so smooth.
Rob is a total ripper!!!
"Someone's gotta be the anchor". lol. Sick riding as usual. That was gnarly for sure. #trailboss worthy for sure. You gimbal doesn't sound too happy though.
Thanks James! I just rode with the #trailboss himself twice last week while in Florida- stay tuned! My gimbal hates me.
Nicely done on the Waterfall, it's amazing how "trials-y" that section really is.
Thanks Dale!!! It was quite tricky!!!
One of the best riding that ive seen so far. That was insane JKW, the gimbal couldnt even keep up with the turns, jumps and drops.
That is some seriously sick riding. That guy in front of you was really fast! Oh I now see it was Rob Drew...no wonder. He has most of the KOM’s on that trail. South Mountain is a sweet place to ride...but you can get seriously jacked up trying to ride it like you guys do. Mad skills!
Rob is a shredder! Yeah, glad we didn't have any crashes, between the cacti and the rocks, it wouldn't be a safe place to crash by any means! Thanks for watching, Jimmy!
Shredding harder than the gimbal can handle. Don't understand how you manual through a turn. Awesome! 🤙
Thanks Dan! Yeah my gimbal is maybe 60% reliable, not sure if the Evo would be any better. Might try one, might just get a second Karma for backup...
A great day on the bike... a bad day to be your GoPro haha. Man you guys were sending it! Poor Bryan had to deal with me picking me way down that waterfall a few weeks back :D
It was a good day! I had actually just caught the flu, and I ripped the derailleur off my bike at the end of the trail, but otherwise, it was rad! We had a little rain to get that legendary grip on the DG happening, so lucky!!!
You know you’re doing something right when your can make a super tech section of trail flow as well as you guys did. #goals
Thanks Ryan! The decomposed dirt on South Mountain is amazing after a rain, too, and makes it even more fun.
Chunky, technical climbs --> instant subscriber
A little bit different, eh? It might be fun to do some "climbing challenges" like Lenosky does, but I don't wanna cramp on Jeff's style! He's a great dude!
Awesome guys!!!
Thanks Marrufo!
I learn so much from watching your videos.
Thanks SG! I like to wheelie a lot.
Nice riding dude! The Drew brothers are rippers and make everything look too easy. Rob was bombing that shit!
Rob is a total shredder! Thanks for watching, Russel!
Dude! That’s looks like sooo much fun. Bought a bike a few months ago but have yet to take it out on a trail. Gonna have to just buck down n do it!
Thanks Beto- head out on that bike and ride it TODAY- no better time than the present! Thanks for watching!!!
😳 Finally got around to watching this one. You guys are good at riding bicycles.
Haha thanks B!
Awesome, so techie. You guys go faster uphill than I can go down.
Hahaha thanks Andy!
Nice video Jeff. You guys were going very fast through some very technical stuff. It looked to me that Rob either knew the trail really well or had a little better bike than yours. Great fun!
Rob is the king of south mountain.
This is Rob's home trail, and he was on a big 'ol enduro bike. I was struggling to keep up, not only is Rob super fast, but I was coming down with the flu and I'm riding a tiny little bike that's small enough for my wife and I to share. Maybe next time I'll be able to stay on Rob's wheel, but maybe not!
Haha definitely!
Rob certainly knows that trail well!!
This video got me pumped.
Awesome, that's the goal!!!
Great vid jeff
Thanks Adam!
That's Great! Just subbed.
Thanks!!!
Pretty awesome man I wouldn't even attempt to ride up that thing, sure looks fun going down it though
Thanks Thim! Up was tricky, but thanks to Rob's guidance, I was able to scoot through!
Very nice riding 👍🏻
Thanks Ken!
I live 40 minutes away from there. Even in my prime I never made it up the waterfall. Respect
Hey Jeff - If you're still in phx, check out Voaz trail, & 1A up to circumference trail over at Phx Mt preserve - Trail 100. Things should be pretty sticky still from the rain the other day.
Thanks Casey- this was about a month ago, but Rob mentioned Trail 100 was rad. Deifnitely on the list for the next visit!
Looks more like trial than trail riding. Great video!
Thanks! And haha with my hopping up the waterfall, I'd have to agree- lots of trials influence!!!
Good job on those manuals I'm still working on those.
Practice in your garage during that winter weather, or heck, I used to use public parking garages as a kid! Stay at it!
Jeff Kendall-Weed who would have thought I would have taken up mtbing at 40 I'm 43 now and don't plan on giving it up anytime soon
That is some tech. Sick handling of amazing terrain. An incredible trail and some great riding! (by the way, that bike is on my short list)
Thanks RideLabs, glad you liked it!!! Let me know if you have any questions on the bike!
I rode one once, it was amazing. Which build kit did you get? How much does it weigh?
Hi Ride Labs, that bike is built with a Fox 34 140 fork, a Shimano M8000 XT 1x11 grouppo with XT brakes, a Fox Transfer post, and Ibis 742 wheels with WTB Convict tires.
wow, that looks so fun. what's the winter time temps like there Jeff?
Freezing at night, then in the 60s during the days. Not bad!
That is some nice riding I would be too worried about coming off and breaking my face! Can only dream of those dusty trails here in muddy Scotland.
David the cactus are scarier than the rocks at time!!! Scotland sounds amazing!
Jeff Kendall-Weed, it's brilliant but damp ! Keeps the dust down 😉
What bike were you riding. Thanks again for the great videos
Hi Jeff... So I have a Mojo 3 and an HD 4 but may just keep the Mojo. I live on South Mountain. What upgrades if any would you think would be the best for the Mojo 3. I primarily ride DC for my Xc and Mormon Natty and the rest for the fun stuff.
Nice, I wish we were not having a major winter storm right now. I would probably be out riding today since I am off work right now.
Oh man, are you on the east coast? Crazy weather lately. This is only my second "real" winter ever, and it's been nice to get into the gym a bunch more, makes the days that we can ride that much more special!
Jeff Kendall-Weed I'm in Kentucky we ended up with about 6-8 inches with drifts over a foot
Yeah, that's a proper snowfall!
rare footage of Jeff getting dropped! The climbs look super tough, you guys rock.
Hahaha not that rare, especially on climbs!!!
You know the terrain your riding is insane when your stabilizer goes bonkers haha!
Oh man, it's more that the steep climbs require the chest to be close to the bars, and the Karma is pretty big.
Holy fuck! This track makes the Lunch Loops look tame.
Hahaha they are just different, I'm sure there is sketchy stuff in GJ as well.
Man, you got skills
Thanks Gary!
That situation around 07:00 was EPIC!!!!
Thanks!
dang... better take yur climbing legs to AZ... nice riding bro!
Also, were you glad to be on the Mojo 3 for this trail or would you have rather been on the Ripley or HD4?
Thanks YumYum! AZ is all about power climbs!
Any of them would work fine. The Mojo 3 was more fun on the climbs than the other two would have been (so tiny and nimble, easy to throw around), the Ripley would have been great for all the flat stuff between the rock features, and the HD4 would have been great on the descent and the steep rock ups.
hell yes! charged it and the GO PRO took a BEATING!
Hahaha that's what the GoPro is for! Might even get a second GoPro in case this one breaks.
are you running the factory 2.6 DHF and Dhr on your Hd4?
Hey there Skatepark, no, I'm running WTB Convict 2.5 Tough casing tires front and rear, with a High Grip version in front and a Fast Rolling in rear.
Skills!
Thanks Yollotl!!!
Hey, what size tires have u been running on that new HD4 of yours?
Hey Honda, that bike in the vid is actually a Mojo 3. But I've been using the same Ibis 742 wheelset for both bikes, and at the moment, I'm REALLY digging the WTB Convict 2.5 Tough High Grip in front/WTB Convict 2.5 Tough Fast Rolling rear. They were especially good in Phoenix, and work much better on the 29-35mm rim widths than on narrower rims. I like the Convicts here in the PNW as well, but they aren't quite as grabby as the Vigilante combos in the muck. However, on anything dry, they are more predictable than the Vigilantes.
Trail looks amazing man! Looks like your gimbal needs to be serviced, or maybe you should borrow from Jordan Boostmaster's idea of adding a few pennies to the gimbal to balance it out so that it stays level better. Not being critical...just know how annoying stuff like that can be when you go look at footage and say, "Oh crap...that looks like ass, and it was right on the coolest part!"
Richard, Rob's brother, rides here in Northwest Arkansas very frequently, and he's fast. Not suprised that his brother is a rocket too. Thanks for the trail recap. We've been contemplating a trip to AZ, and this helped tilt the scale toward doing it! COOL trail, and amazing riding by both of you guys.
Thanks Willbro, that's a great tip on the pennies. I'll check his vid to see the deets!
Have been considering a trip to Bentonville myself, but kind of far for this year. Maybe next year. And yes, definitely go to Phoenix for a day, but spend a few days in Sedona while you're out there!
Sedona is the location we're headed to. Two buddies rode out there last spring, and LOVED it. Cheap airfare to Phoenix, and then we'll just rent bikes and ride for a few days.
I'm just ready for somoene to release a camera that stabilizes the footage and eliminates the gimbal. The new Rylo seems to do that to some extent, but there are still some limitations with it. Do you use the EVO SS and standard GoPro, or another brand of wearable Gimbal? I'm still on the Feiyu Tech and session. I've put off upgrading...hoping a "gimbal free stabilizing camera" comes out!
Hey Willbros, Sedona is rad, and your plan will be killer! Dave Cichan at the Fat Tire in Sedona has taken GREAT care of us in the past, though all the shops up there are good. I use the Karma grip gimbal and a Hero 4 Silver. The Hero 6 has pretty good internal stabilization, but it's nowhere near as good as the Karma grip. I do think the Hero 6 on the helmet, combined with some high end stabilization software, could work just fine, and am thinking about trying that for a 2nd angle option. It just takes time and money!
Thanks for the recommendations. One thing I LOVE about your videos is that you sincerely address the hikers on the trail, and even thank them for the space. ALL mountain bikers should do that, on camera or not!
The buddies who went rented Evil bikes when they were there, and I'll have to ask them the shop name...might be the same one. The Karma is bulky for sure. I am worried about what's going to happen if I ever take one of those "quick diggers" where you're OTB and on the ground wondering, "WTH just happened?" only now, my sternum is probably broken in three places due to the Feiyu Tech gimbal. I don't care about 360* views...I just want good stabilization in one unit with no gimbal, with good image and audio quality. I think we're getting close to someone releasing one!
I've hit my sternum really hard with a GoPro before, it didn't break but sure hurt like heck for 8 weeks. Gotta be super appreciative to all users we share the trails with!!! As MTBers, we have the weakest voice in trail access, so gotta kill them with kindness. I don't have any shop recommendations, unfortunately.
You need to hook up with guys like Seth's bike hacks, Alex the single track sampler and phil metz. That would be dope! Your channel should get way more subs and views....IMO.
Bugsy Siegel can Jeff hold Phil Kmetz's wheel? Needs to happen
Would be cool indeed! I'm catering much more to the hardcore MTB audience than those guys, but would LOVE to collab with all them! I just did a project with Jeff Lenosky the other day, and will try to make it out to Asheville at some point this year!
Or perhaps the other way around?! Hahaha racing is cool and all, but I'd rather stop and session the fun stuff!!! I've heard that Phil is a ripper!
That I'd like to see!
Those guys are pretty hard core. I know Seth rode with Nate Hills which was inspiring to watch. I just think it will give you some good exposure. I'm looking at it from an eye ball perspective. They do have loyal followings and seem to be really good guys. Couldn't hurt!
Sweet, I'm headed to Phoenix in a few months, definitely going to have to give this a go. Anyone have shop recommendations in the area?
Wish I did! In Sedona, check out Dave at the Fat Tire, but in Phoenix, I don't recall the best shops...
Go to Rage, they some new Pivots. Recommend Mach 5.5 or firebird for National.
Rage has some good guys, I used to work with them when I was at Ibis, but haven't checked in with them since then.
Tell me you hit up Sedona while you were here! I'd love to see what you can do on those trails.
I wish!!! We got engaged in Sedona 3 years ago and loved it there!! Didn't have time to get up there on this trip.
Great trails. The GoPro was taking a beating.
That's what it's for though, right?! Might try mounting it upside down for more clearance next time I film a climb.
When it looks sketchy from the go pro perspective, I can't imagine what that is like in person.
Hahaha it's really tricky. If I weren't there with Rob, I probably wouldnt have figured out how to get up it.
Granny gear on the steep techy stuff? And are you all clipped in?
As granny as I've got, that bike has a 34t chainring with a 42 cog in back. 170mm cranks for easier spinning, too.
7:37 .... what the ef. how do you pull a mani running a track blind and steer? Triggered
Hahaha thanks Ryan, I just go for it sometimes!
Jeff, do you coach people?
Maybe one day, but not currently!
dang.... I think your gimbal needs a gimbal to stabilize this video!
BRO!!!! i need to lose some fucking weight so i can ride singletrack like this! i have enjoyed DH so much i gained a bunch of weight.
4:15 GET SOME! by skipping this section lol You could do that cleaner, u know you can! Next time have your buddy record off to the side and make sure the sun isn't facing the camera so we get all the epicness!!!!
Wowwwwwwww!!!💪💪💪 In Italia si dice: ... SPETTACOLO🤣😍
Ciao Bianca! Thanks!!!
I didn't realize it was even possible to manual like that, holy shit
Hahaha the tiny little bike and wide tires make it easier!
I agree Dave!!
Howdy
Cheers Tim!
Yo Jeff Kendall-Weed, Nice video ! We are french riders, we work with the filmmaker GoldenHelmets, can you give us a review/commentary of our channel ? ;)
I'll have to check your channel out, thanks for watching!
That poor, poor gimbal... lmao
That's what it's for though, right?! Might try mounting it upside down for more clearance next time I film a climb.
Jeff Kendall-Weed I think it’s just your riding style, and how much you move around on the bike. The gimbal hit your bars/stem a lot. I think that the gimbal was messed up after that from the repeated hits.
It frequently loses the horizon regardless of the big g-outs and hitting the bars, someone mentioned a trick with balancing the gimbal better, I'll try that. It doesn't hit much on descents, much more on climbs, and they are not hard impacts.
I went there this weekend and can say you filmed the easy part 2 of Waterfall. Kinda dishonest!
Your poor gimbal/cam setup took a beating in this one.
Haha yep! It's kind of bulky and smacks the bars easily.
did that today ...its a bitch
