Yeah i agree but the 2 local bros really put it down. I think they over scored Max's run although it was good enough for 3rd probably rather than 2nd but otherwise i thought the podium was correct. Sam shoulda got 4th or 5th though i believe
@@charlesgrigson6436 watched it live and even the Polish speaker that led the comp was also surprised that Sam did not land higher. I would say 4th or 5th for sure. Amazing contest.
Yeah I've been binge watching my way through Sams channel lately and the mentality "That was sooo death, awesome!" shines through. Normal people get afraid and bail while Sam gets just as afraid and does it anyway.
I know this place. Live not far away from there... Whoever built those drops and jumps must be mental ! One mistake and you're a wet stain on concrete.
Hey Sam , DudeI have been a stuntman for 32 years, I still ride everyday!!! Horses, dirtbikes, and MTB's . I know a few things about managing & dealing with the fear factor lol. I think you are super honest about your experience. It will certainly help & inspire some young bucks. You are real, humble and damn good at what you do! You made me grin from ear to ear the whole time ! Hahahahaha. I also think something got underscored ..79...hummm.. You still got it though ! Enjoy that stuff for as long as you can ! The feeling of overcoming fear ! Once you committed, there is no way back, and the doors of an indescribable hurricane of emotions open ! ( Or pain..lots of pain lol when it go sideways :)) , and if there was 0 hesitations & 100 % commitment , hell, it was still a good try! These emotions are worth millions ! For many , that feeling may happen a few times in their lifetime. We get to Experience that on daily basis, pretty much. As as we get older , these memories will make us still feel like we've done this and still make us feel good! Ultimately , no regrets ! A life well spent with tons of fun, Amazing moments that no one can take from you ! I am so glad I saw you doing this ! Yeah..yeah I liked & subscribed ! Hahahaha Keep'em coming dude ! You rock !
Watched it yesterday dude you stomped it, amazing run defo should of scored more. Sam Pilgrim is Slopestyle so glad you are hitting contests again, they are better for it! 🤘🤘🤘
Sam still rocks full gear on downhill stuff. Most bmx riders like those helmets so they can see much better. They don't have rocks or trees or I know terrain on their runs. I think the whole less pads makes you a more of a bad ass is lame. He uses his gear in a fashion that keeps him most safe.
I'm so stoked for both Szymon and Dawid Godziek 🔥 They couldn't compete at crankworx last year so they had to get a wildcard in order to compete at crankworx again. And they both managed to get it 👌 Szymon got his at Copenride (he finished second and Emil already is in cwx so Szymon got the wildcard) and Dawid got it at roof ride 👍
@@gabareaper copenride is an fmb world tour Gold event and I read on their website that the winner will get a wildcard for Crankworx (if the winner already is in cwx, the 2nd place gets the wildcard and so on)
As a musician, I know the feelings of nerves at a big event, but that feeling when you know you crushed it is so awesome. Those times when you can get out of your own head are what dreams are made of. I don't think any of the younger guys are better than you, but remember when you were younger, you didn't think as much about the 'what ifs'. It is all mindset, but as we get older our knowledge and ability to conjure up doubts grows. I know that I am my own worst critic at times I don't need too be. Sam you still kill it and have fun, thanks so much for taking us along on your rides.
So pleased to see you do so well in this event Sam. You did yourself proud with that run, we were all rooting for you! Any event is better for having you in it!
I absolutely love the inside view into professional competition riding. Keep it up. From the outside, I don’t think I ever considered that the pros were scared or nervous. They always look so calm and collected, and it’s cool to see the real emotions of it.
As a fan, this was the best video. Amazing to see the progression through the whole event and hear the emotions your were experiencing. Brought a tear of joy. Also, super insightful for the slopestyle scene. FOR THE VLOG
So good to come along with you in this tournament, thanks for taking us and sharing this experience. Loved every minute of this video seeing how pumped you were !
Dude - awesome run on a terrifying course, keep smashing it! You're not old, not by a long shot. I'm 47 and I just took up downhill mountain biking last year and I'm F'ing loving it, and still ripping it on a snowboard. You got loads of life left in you yet, my man. Age is just an attitude!
If u think you're too old for contests i got 2 words for you: Ryan nyquist. He was almost 40 before he ever rode a mountain bike and ended up competing for 1 or 2 yrs on the pro tour and doing fairly well. Granted he was a multi-time multi-discipline bmx world champ as well, but just goes to show...you're certainly not too old and even if u can't get back to that top spot or even back in the top 5...nobody cares. We love u and all your videos regardless. We all know what a badass u are on a bike so u don't have to prove anything to anyone at this point. Nobody watches this channel based on your world tour slopestyle finishes.
Awesome seeing you compete again.👍👍 Love watching this because there's a lot of us older guys. You prove and inspire people to ride. Your still pushing the youth to keep up and push further. You Sir are a massive inspiration to a very wide generation 👊👊
Absolute legend in the sport! I can't imagine strappin' into my bindings and pulling a run like I could when I was 17 - 20, now that I'm 32. Cheers to you livin' your best life!
Watched it on the live feed ...didn't tell me 7 year old son that you were doing the comp ,as he thinks your great ......and when he saw you he shouted .....that's sam !!! He was ,and I was chuffed to bits ,you did so well...look forward to watching you at audi nines ...Good luck ..
I love seeing you back in comps, man! The hype-train boards whenever you come up on the broadcast. Even though you said "I can't do cashrolls and stuff like the top boys," I think you 100% have earned a place among the current best Slopestyle riders in the world.
Thanks so much for taking us on the ride with you! Would love to hear a vlog where you talk about fear and how it plays a roll in the tricks/features you tackle. Thanks so much man!
I love that your getting back out there and competing even though The too guys are crazy good you are going there to compete and do your best runs for yourself which is awesome. Your still the best urban rider out there Sam plus who can flair a free bike? Just you
Probably the best vid Sams done for me. Awsome behind the scenes, genuine emotion and if anyone thinks hes just stairs and skate parks?..... well there you go. Absolute legend 👊
I was watching Red Bull TV yesterday, and was totally surprised to see Sam Pilgrim up next 😎 Couldn't wait to see your post of the event, and then Audi nines next week!!!
This session was even better than Copenride. What CPH did wrong was to put the location in such an open location, no tall buildings to block the winds. Seems Poland Session was better suitable and successful. Well done, Sam... Cheers from Copenhagen.
That was amazing Sam...you still managed to pull some world-first tricks man, that's not just "keeping up" with the young guys, you're a trailblazer Sam you've show them the way and they took off. Everyone is sending your tricks (e.g. Emil with the windshield wiper) now and they're taking it further as they should...but without you being the pathfinder that you are, this wouldn't have been even possible. That's why everyone loves you and respect you so much Sam... you're unique. 💪🏻😎
Sam, that is so cool. You are an inspiration to all of the old guys. I’m 48 and learning to jump and ride downhill - all because of your videos. TSG protection, MTB Hopper Coach ramp, Pilgrips, Ride Concepts Wildcat shoes, etc. I’m trying to send it! Thanks so much for making the content!
There are some epic clips for the intro in there! Dude I could really feel the tension in this video, I kinda started sweating a bit when you did the run :D
Imagine being so good that it’s not even dangerous or scary. I can’t believe this event will even raise enough money to pay for the construction of that structure
So stoked for you to be back in contests Sam, and loved seeing the contest from a behind the scenes vlog perspective, also 10th place not bad for an old guy haha
It was sick to see you doing so well, imagine you did that oppo t/whip to hop whip up the top. As it was the judging was a bit inconsistent I had you higher than 10th! Best of luck at 9's the course is looking amazing!
I can't believe you actually came to Poland and I couldn't be there .. I hope you enjoyed your stay and you'll come back one day, so I can finally meet the legend 🤜🤛
Oh man, your videos always make me feel so good, but this one was like if I was riding in that contest. Thanks Sam for letting us live THE DREAM with you and for sharing the joy of conquering your fears with us. Cheers!!!
Watched the whole event yesterday, amazing job Sam! Second run definitely deserved a higher score but it's just cool seeing you back out at events. Almost even better without Emil there just knowing someone else could step up. 10/10!
Thank you so much for continuing to push yourself and being willing to bring us along for the ride! I can't wait to see you ride the Audi Nines event, epic!
Such a perfect demonstration of the humility which makes your channel so attractive. Excellent.
@Dangerfield Welcome back digital detox’er?
In your last run you got robbed! You deserved way more than a 79. That flip turndown to tuck was one of the best tricks in the whole comp
Hah yeah everybody in the chat was mad at the judges for that score.

@@gamingmaster1615 seeing 90+ rated predictions 🤣
This is a reply to an olllld comment but but it’s probably because he had a monster helmet and not a Red Bull helmet 😉
As an "Old guy" myself riding in my 40's, keep it real with never slowing down. Good work Sam.
ppl used to believe that these athletes are immune to nerves, anxiety and fear... i watched the whole event, the ppl and tricks were remarkable...
Yeah I've been binge watching my way through Sams channel lately and the mentality "That was sooo death, awesome!" shines through. Normal people get afraid and bail while Sam gets just as afraid and does it anyway.
I know this place. Live not far away from there... Whoever built those drops and jumps must be mental ! One mistake and you're a wet stain on concrete.
...I'm 54.... getting up & down kerbs on my Raleigh Shopper without falling off is, for me, a banger!. Love watching what you do Sir!
I'm 48 and starting to feel the same way. Always great to be on the bike tho, keep it up man.

Sam: _half-lid, t-shirt, no gloves_
Sam is a legend :D

Oh. Shit is this really SAM? I just noticed your profile photo down low. Hey I'm not a commenter but you are f_ing awesome
Very happy and waiting to see Godziek Brothers at Crankworx, the competition was on a super high level!! hope to see more events like that in Poland!

"Look at that drop there", literally looks straight down on an ambulance waiting..
Pretty convenient to land directly on a stretcher in the ambulance.
A little toy ambulance way down at the bottom of a canyon ffs, insane
Lol
So pleased to see you do so well in this event Sam. You did yourself proud with that run, we were all rooting for you! Any event is better for having you in it!
I liked this video during the ad even before he said today was gonna be epic, cuz it's ALWAYS epic when sam's involved!
So true
Yes! 🙌🏽 So glad you're so stoked! Have fun with the boys at the Audi 9s 🤙🏽
Thanks for coming to Poland, I watched your run live and I think you deserved a better score, but anyway thanks for the amazing show !
Same thought

You still got it Sam! And the rest of the riders seem to love you being around..10th place is Dreamy dude..
Sam, you are the reason why i started mtb again after a back injury. So motivating! To the skyyyyyy!
Sam's videos are the absolute highlight of the day.
Well done Sam, amazing effort
I like your happy sunflower :)
@@monty_sultana loool
A
judges did you dirty dude, all those triple combos and you got underscored hard
"with the top boys' like you didnt invent the flat drop flip, ok

You're the best man, it was epic to have you in Poland!!
Thanks Sam. You never fail to put a smile on my face and brighten up my day! I just love your honest enthusiasm for life.
I wanna be like this guy
@Angus Copeland I’d rather be Dusty
How did you comment so fast
Me too
everyone wants to be him
Doesn’t everyone?
So stoked watching this. As a geezer myself, feels good to watch an old man in the sport keeping up with the kids! Congrats!
Sam u are in Poland :O OMG! high 5, waiting for more from you and Godziek Borther's
So much respect to you Sam. That was your Mount Doom ... but you pulled it off like ... a real Sam!

Great job Sam! Digging your positivity! Congratulations!
Flip turndown to tuck was absolute class mate! One of the raddest tricks of the event!
Frickin awesome to see you back killing it with the youngsters! Gives some hope back to another old bloke! xD
Matt Jones and Sam Pilgrim uploading at the same time let’s goooooooo!
Nice one. I like to think that in about 30 years' time Sam will still be rocking up to these events and holding his own
Sam buddy you might not be #1 for slopestyle but you are the ultimate well-rounded shredder!
Sam, that is so cool. You are an inspiration to all of the old guys. I’m 48 and learning to jump and ride downhill - all because of your videos.

Was great to see you in Poland! 🙏🏻😍
Flip turndown is so beautiful, all upside down and sideways, without rotation 👌
I'm glad to hear him say "It's scary" because personally I'm splattering my britches just looking at that course
That course is insanely cool!!
Way to push yourself Sam! So fun to watch! Very happy for you! Keep it up and we'll be watching! Thanks for sharing!
Watched it on RUclips, fantastic effort Sam! You win every time you get on a bike. Insane skills. Better luck with the next one. 👍
It was great to see you in Poland! Come again soon
Imagine being so good that it’s not even dangerous or scary.
I can’t believe this event will even raise enough money to pay for the construction of that structure
I've got to say @SAMPILGRIM ,you're nuts Bro!!!
That's some big quality airtime you're hitting, fair play.
I still want to do my own maintenance 😆
Siiick mate! Hope you participate in contests more often in the future! :D
killer showing Sam...loved seeing you throw the combos with amplitude
Haha "I'm sooo old now"... tell that to Minnaar
Huge respect SAM it’s really nice to see you on our home soil hope you will come to Poland again .thanks Bro!
So stoked for you to be back in contests Sam, and loved seeing the contest from a behind the scenes vlog perspective, also 10th place not bad for an old guy haha
Nice Sam!! Same feeling you get when you have a good stage in enduro and hit the scary lines from practice and lay down a solid time. Pure joy.
This is so crazy man! It's really incredible the things you can do with your bike!
OG Gangster Line NICE !!!
It was sick to see you doing so well, imagine you did that oppo t/whip to hop whip up the top. As it was the judging was a bit inconsistent I had you higher than 10th! Best of luck at 9's the course is looking amazing!
All I can say is WOW! Great Riding Sam! On a side note, great video, why does anyone give videos a thumbs down? something wrong with those.
Been waiting for this! Such a great constant, fantastic live RedBull run!!!! Well done on your finishing position.
Good job Sam,everyone will respect you because you are a legend!Sam is amazing
"I can't even stand on the end" - nice to know he's human :]
I can't believe you actually came to Poland and I couldn't be there .. I hope you enjoyed your stay and you'll come back one day, so I can finally meet the legend 🤜🤛
I've never been so exited for the Audi Nines, highlight of the year maybe?
Amazing, can tell how much you loved that. Think this is one of my Fav videos from you. AMAZING SAM!! 🤘🤙
Oh man, your videos always make me feel so good, but this one was like if I was riding in that contest.
Thanks Sam for letting us live THE DREAM with you and for sharing the joy of conquering your fears with us.
Cheers!!!
I watched it live but it’s your video that actually gives the jumps their true scale. Respect to all of you lot riding them!
Was so surprised at how they underscored your run, I thought straight away you wouldn’t do a third run after that if the judges were scoring so low
Crazy Crazy Awesome Stuff …. Really enjoy your channel and videos , excellent job on the comp Bud 🤟🏻🤟🏻
Well done! 👏
Love your comeback mate💯💯💯💯
Yes!! The 30+ crowd wants more!! 🤙🏻🤙🏻
Sooo good seeing you back at it,thr dream
This man has the biggest kahunas in Colchester. Great work Sam
Fantastic mate, well done. You still got it. Today was epic 😁👍
Who else loves these competition videos?
My deepest regards for everything you have done and will do!
Watched the whole event yesterday, amazing job Sam! Second run definitely deserved a higher score but it's just cool seeing you back out at events. Almost even better without Emil there just knowing someone else could step up. 10/10!
Soooo happy to be able to meet you, CRACK A MONNY WITH YOU, and talk to you, one of best days of my life !
Thank you Sam !!!!!
Audi Nines will be siiiick 🔥🔥
Been Playing your game didn’t even know u had a game out guess cause I have not been around for a bit the game is great 👍 I🔥🔥👍👍
Dude, smashed it, can we expect a 'Sam learns cash rolls' soon ?
Thank you so much for continuing to push yourself and being willing to bring us along for the ride! I can't wait to see you ride the Audi Nines event, epic!
