- Racing the Eastern States Cup Pro Downhill race on my trusty GT Force Enduro MTB. I wasn't planning on racing Mountain bikes this weekend, but given that there were rain storms all over; So I figured this would be a good excuse to do my First downhill race in a long time

Phil at race pace is terrifying to watch. He rides so aggressively! Absolutely attacks the hell out of the trail. Incredible riding dude. Always cool to be reminded how skillful you are
“I’m just gonna cruise down this”
5 seconds later: breaks the sound barrier
Thats just phil-ish for "Punch it, Chewy"
I was looking for this comment
haha beat me too it
I was about to mention this myself in a comment, but you said better than I could have.
Well... That's true
"I'm willing to case it"
And that's why we love you.
Legend!
Phil: was that a flat, that sounded awfully like a rim...
Also Phil: boosts a gap right after .
😂
I love the fact that Phil places on the podium and draws no attention other the a quick shot so he can get back to focusing on the important stuff. Post riding with friends. Love your stuff.
I think he got 4th but doesn’t really matter
@@SkylineGTR06 4th is podium in these races
Congratulations on the finish, I can't believe how fast some of those sections were. You get any faster and you're going to need to start filming at a faster frame rate ! Seriously impressive!
That moment of hesitation checking if the tire is on backwards at 18:05 ^^
you can hear the oh sh*t moment in the breathing. that wouldve been rough
Damn its so nice seeing you riding and smashing races again. Been watching almost since you started the channel. Everytime im watching your new videos im reminded of why every other MTB youtuber that mentions you also adds the "hes fcking fast" part.
How can you not love Phil? So down to earth, and good to his fans.
That was my band playing there this weekend for their Oktoberfest. I ride here as well. if I had known you were there, I would have definitely come over for a high five! if this was Saturday, and between around 2:30 and 5:30. Sorry Phil!!! =) Last November I broke 5 ribs and had a partially collapsed lung after crashing off the drop you went off at 15:05 on Flow Dog =) Lost my focus haha
Was there as well, and while riding the lift, all I could think was damn, that bass player is tight 🤘🤘🤘
@@seantierson2633 haha Thanks!
Joe Martin... Dude, why is there no video of this on your channel? Is it because of bs copyright crappolla? You're allowed to play copyrighted music in front of thousands of people, and get paid for it, but you can't put it on the net.
@@planeandsimple431 We usually record our shows. Our camera was FUBAR at this show. I typically load the actual band vids to the band page haha. I typically DO get tagged tor copyright claims, but as long as I don't monetize my channel, it's ok. ruclips.net/channel/UCsbJC_chgUWWcy5mZ4gRp-Q
The funny and coincidental thing about all of this is that Phil's video with Wyn Master was what made me realize I wanted to get a full sus bike a couple of years ago and get into this kind of riding. Which is why I would have loved to have met him for a high five. ruclips.net/video/-nhLNBKHjUM/видео.html
“I’m just gonna cruise down this”
Cuts to him pumping the living shit out of everything going warp speed
I've never mountain biked before but your videos have shown me that I want to be part of this community so im going to start!
How are you doing now?
Incredible! It’s so good watching you ride 🙌🏼
Seeing the huck almost past the bridge damn near gave me a heart attack! Jeebus!
Luke is the man! He encouraged me through my first enduro race. Coincidentally also at Powder Ridge.
I love how he takes a chunky downhill course and makes it as smooth as an XC lap. He is absolute butter on a bike.
Phil, this video was amazing. So fun to watch and experience and I loved the length.
Great meeting you and Haylee and talking about falling every ride in the lift line 🤘
That is so cool to see you racing at Powder Ridge. It is my local and although it’s not the best it is a really fun place to ride. Keep shredding bro👍
I think it's awesome that you are recognized by random riders pretty much everywhere you go.
Thanks for playing bikes for us !
We enjoy all your videos
Man some seriously impressive riding. Great job, dude!
Awesome video, killer to see you race again and those after party jumps were the bees knees
SOOOOO awesome you are giving Powder Ridge so much attention!
Awesome video Phill! Please see this,
I have just found out I have COVID just as my new bike arrives tomorrow.But watching your videos puts a smile on my face and makes me look forward to when I can ride it!thank you.
Good to see Ulmer riding! A true east coast OG. Always loved running into him on the hills 😅🤝🏽🤘🏽
Sick shred, as always. Loved it. Awesome stuff, keep going and dont crash too gnarly, cheers!
I like these long videos Phil, keep it up. Enjoyable to watch when I can't ride.
15:31 is so peaceful and tranquil up there in heaven! Good gawd, Phil!!
One of the other great joys of visiting a downhill mountain bike park.
Literally just posted about the same effortless boost.
I have been on that trail many times and I'm not even sure how he possibly got all of that air at that spot. I swear he has wings.
Love the fact you don't let "mechanicals" faze you. Know a lot of people who wouldn't ride with creaking headset and or bent crank arms. Champion.
Sick vid! Well done on the 4th place bro.
Great vid. That looked fun!
Loving these videos - incredible talent!
I was racing sport when you and Geoff where in JR x. It was crazy watching g you guys during practice and trying the same lines lol. Just recently found out you make RUclips videos. Keep up the good work!!
The end mins are the best haha great run tho Phil!
Stoked to see you racing on flats!
Awesome vid dude!
Still fast as heck - and killing it on those new HUGE jumps!!!!
bruh..that was SAVAGE. BLISTERING!!!!! love it!!!!
Solid run man 💪 sick video 🔥🤙
11:31 legendary hoodie
You hit that soft tricky turn perfect during the race! I audibly said "oo nice"
Good lord you're fast Phil.... Always enjoy watching the flow (Trail and hair, lol).
So much fun. Felt like I was there. Right on your helmet. Standing naked in the breeze.
Sick Racing Dude and WOOOW your FAST!!!!!
Never get tired watching you racing phil. Excited to see you racing ews 100 this year. Hope more racing to come. Good luck mate
Nice! Looks like Powder has stepped up their game since the last time I was there.
I wasnt intending to keep watching your videos but im hooked on this. Its a sub for me.
If you're ever feeling glum or need a pick-me-up, just slap on a Phil video. No matter what is going on on the screen it's always upbeat and cheerful. Love it!
Just a "Pleasure Cruze" Good Job Phil!
“That was interesting sound” lol that shit got me 😂😂
I've been meaning to hit Powder Ridge. Looking forward to it!
Well done great race💥👌
"I'm just going to cruise down" Then goes faster than any person in human history. Hits the bottom of the trail like a meteor and the world EXPLODES!!!
Get this legend to 500k!
Nice video phil
The feeling of race day is awesome!!!
That was a fantastic video!
cruising down
Phil 2 sec. later: RACE MODE activated
cruise down lol, reminded why you stopped racing,,, damn you looked like you were thoroughly enjoying it. love seeing the random riders recognising you. fame :D
Wow! You’re so fast!
Phil could be a Tony Robbins to ...Tony Robbins. That's how cool and chill this guy seems, even at scary downhill
I grew up at that "mountain", nice place. Glad they're still open.
Wow that was fast! And on an Enduro bike for DH when the other bikes have way longer travel double crown forks and coil shocks.
That was great...🤘
Okay, I see the skills that this Phil does possess.👍🧐
4:06 freaking killed me 🤣🤣
im still dying
Same
The fact you can ride with that headset making all that racket shows inordinate focus.
Great video! :)
"Yo is that skills with Phil?" Ahahah phil: " well that was reclusive" 🤣
love ur vids
Holy shit man you were sooo fast i think i didnt blink a single time watching you
Excellent 👍
Thanks for the videos Phil - it’s definitely helping progress my mtb …
With the music/copyright issue - you could always mute the video completely in those clips and over dub voice or royalty free music to save trying to preserve the original dialogue
Anyways it’s all good 👍🇦🇺
those pre race jitters are the best !!
So cool 🤘👍❤
I’ve been racing enduro on the dirt bike last few years and there is nothing like the nervous feeling you get when your lining up with 25 other guys.. it’s addicting at the same time lol
God, you’re so fast!
i loved thissss ! ! ! ! ! ! !
That tree stump @ 20:28 🫣🫢
I totally get what you mean about a having a timer changing things. Some people enjoy that kind of pressure and others don't, that's just how it is!
Phil must be one of GT’s most valuable assets. Cannot think of a better brand ambassador to promote the joy of biking without any ego.
Yeah Phil!!!
20:58 that was insane!
The only bad part about downhill is everyone coming in the track at different time and stay to figure it out. Then the see someone figure it out and it’s like okay now I got it. I always thought they should give everyone 30mins to ride and figure it out. Nice run bud!
28:00 was kinda expecting you to land on the back of the excavator :D
15:30 boost alert 🚨🤯 effortless
Dude! 4th man without really prepping! sick run 1.28s off first. That was with messing up a couple sections? Would love to see more race videos. Also, when I look up the race results it doesn't show your sponsor =( Any idea why? Anyhow congratz!
I love early morning races.
‘just gonna cruise down’ *absolutely hammers down the trail
Damn Your Fast! 😨😨
Damn that run from 20min on was brutally aggressive
that guy's seriously fast!
22:40. Phil and boys lookin like they are about to ride Hell Track.
“Yo is that skills with phill?” “Eeeuuuuuuuwahhhh😩😩😩”
4:05 😂😂
It's Phil with Skills! lol
Why do you always laugh when you fall hahahaha 😂😂😂😂😂. It’s so funny. Great vid btw
Haha I went back to DH racing this summer so I could do Masters DH World Champs.. I was not reminded why I stopped (although I haven't forgotten).. the 10 year break was well worth it. Had a great time at all of the races (even Crankworx Innsbruck which was way too hot) and proper got the bug back. 😀
12:16 that’s me In front!
Had me at "I'm willing to case it"
