If the goal of SunPeaks Resort was to get some inexpensive promotion by having VanCan visit on their dime, they've succeeded! It's been many years since I was at SunPeaks but now I really want to go again!
Sun Peaks hype is real this year! Smart of them to host some RUclipsrs and they had the Rocky EWS guys up there. Been wanting to ride there for years after hearing about the awesome steep double blacks.
Thank you for the excellent video. We are here at sun Peaks and riding tomorrow. I think we will stick to the greens! Your footage from Steam shovel was insane. My son says it’s the toughest trail.
To be fair I think the world needs to look at Revolution Bikepark in North Wales to see how to build a Bikepark ! Tiny Hill in comparison to Canada, Alps etc but way better for track design.
Looks fun! I think Paul takes the "attack position" a little too seriously - seems very straight and stiff on the bike, his arms barely move relative to the upper body? Could probably benefit from learning to loosen up and get a bit more dynamic!
@@PaulThePunter u have improved so much recently, just try to push ur comfort zone more and you will improve so much you have the technique u just need the confidence
I rode there from 2000-2007. Imo the best all around bike park out there. Some of the steepest steeps I have ever ridden. Would love to get back to see the new stuff.
Yea its weird, where I live in Australia the jumps are too small to do whips, but when I went to whistler I learnt how to whip in 2 days and it got to the point if I didnt whip I would start going over the bars, I had to move the bike every jump!
As always, great content! Paul’s been riding at all the best bike parks and trails around the would. As a fellow Brit i feel he could do with a Stella for breakfast and grow a pair! Thanks again
Could you go to leogang or saalbach or winterberg once? Because i like to watch this content but i know i will never ride hear because i live in europe. And what the f a thousend dollar 💵 jump clinic!
Hi Nick, you said you turn your bar just a bit at the top of the kick to be more stable in the air than kipping it strait ? That's my main point of progression so I'm interested 😁
Are you going to Big White soon if you are you should check out Gillard Recreational Trails they have some sick tech and jumps but you would have to drive or shuttle up the road isn’t good to bike on
I will have a chance to replace brakes in my new bike. I will have sram guide T's and since my brother sells his bike he offerd me to replace it with sram guide RE but they are used for 1 year(and thery are 2018 model). Do you think it is worth it? btw bought yt jeffsy and it arrives to me tommorow :)
Van Can, you couldn´t get enough speed on that drop because you were braiking inside the corner, you have to brake earlier, let go and then you would exit faster. You can also do it at that speed if you boos it. Hope this helps. Great video and riding as ever:))) I would love to visit!
Just like to point out as a local.. this was the opening weekend and it basically rained a week straight just before they opened.. it was wet, there was tons of mud and puddles where ther usually isn't
Don't forget to like and subscribe, or I won't reveal the secret to a sweet bar turn.
It’s about time
What bike were you riding?
@@BMfins yt tues
he's turning into sam pilgram, "these turns are the dream!"
Just wait until I start throwing down flip whips on the street.
and everything is "insane"
@@VanCan To achieve full Pilgrimage, I think you have to send a Stairset of Doom, and then flair the smallest quarter pipe you can find.
and BKXC..."He gone"
That would be absolutely insane
Came here for dan content
It’s the only reason I make videos
Yes Dan content
why are you so bad
#dancontent
Jealousy levels are high with this one...😂
You were at the park too, in my heart.

I think "Farmer Johns MTB park" still has it. 😂
To be fair farmer John's is very good for how little space there is!!!
that is my local love it so much
thomas goddard , can’t what for it to re-open. I think John has put a lot of work in the last few months.

@@paulgiles7456 i call him the other day and it should be open any day know need to get there and get sendy
Lmao every encounter with wood:
*riding along in total bliss*
*sees wood*
"AHHH! SCARY WOOD!"
*back to riding blissfully*

I was just saying this while watching - you’re right. Working on it today!
@@PaulThePunter u have improved so much recently, just try to push ur comfort zone more and you will improve so much you have the technique u just need the confidence
Your summary was very helpful for my first trip to Sun Peaks, thanks!
Nick, this is one of the first times I've seen background music used properly. Great job nick!
Love the Videos Nick! Keep them coming! Watching from Tasmania!
Nice, I just made it upto Silver Star Mountain for opening week and made a video about it. Same vibe as Sun Peaks, good dirt and good turns!
I rode there from 2000-2007. Imo the best all around bike park out there. Some of the steepest steeps I have ever ridden. Would love to get back to see the new stuff.
Fun to watch looking forward to riding such terrain one day
I have to say the lighting in this was MINT. Great video Nick!
I’d love to see a video of how the enduro bike feels at the bike park. Great video
Keep an eye out!
you know it's not about the bike, right?
*Sweet video!* _I would love to give those trails a try someday!_
Let sun peaks know it was worth the lift passes and accommodations, those more natural trails you showcase are everything I want from a mountain.
Yea its weird, where I live in Australia the jumps are too small to do whips, but when I went to whistler I learnt how to whip in 2 days and it got to the point if I didnt whip I would start going over the bars, I had to move the bike every jump!
Man I've skied here but I now have to ride here! great Video
As always, great content!

VanCan : “This is steep”
The GoPro : “I don’t know what your talking about”
This guy needs more subscribers! Help him out everyone!
Sun peaks bike park is amazing sick video. I'm dying to go there
Come over to silverstar! Just not until next week because i crashed real bad and can't ride until then 😂
That place was awesome! This video was awesome! One of your best no doubt!
Hey man you got lucky with how dry it was, I was up opening weekend and there was pools of mud
This is a beauty of a video !!👍💪⛰🚵♂️
Said the same thing about jumping yesterday to my dad
Looks like you had an awesome time !
you should come ride windham mountain bike park in ny. not many trails but maintained well
Awesome Vid 😎 Definitely will be going there 🙂
Was that really a single black? Those drops were huge!
Ya haha a bit of a surprise!
You need to come to highland sometime!
I love steam shovel, I think I even prefer it to whistler
Enter the flow-verse. Very nice.
Man if you are at sun peaks you got to check out Silverstar. Its a couple hours north
“a respectable 2000 vertical feet” dude highlands only got 700 (still a brilliant bike park)
Yeah mines got 1000, but the reason he said that was in b.c. theres places with much higher elevation, it's all respective to where you are
Lol mines got 280 feet and its sick
Awesome Video dude!
Looks great! I'll be there next week
Hope you enjoy it!
Place looks amazing
Dan is just being dan
Hey can we get some third person shots?
Great vid ! Made me sub 👍
Hello people who is having a good day

Could you go to leogang or saalbach or winterberg once? Because i like to watch this content but i know i will never ride hear because i live in europe. And what the f a thousend dollar 💵 jump clinic!

If you liked it there, you’d love silver star
Hi Nick, you said you turn your bar just a bit at the top of the kick to be more stable in the air than kipping it strait ? That's my main point of progression so I'm interested 😁
You can use it to keep you a little more balanced.
do you use wide or superview on you gopro? also you should make a video reviewing your gopro settings and mounts you use.
Superview. Check out the loam rangers go pro video, I do pretty much the same thing
Droooool factor level ten 🤤
It looks like silver mountain but so refined
Love the content you should be growing faster
I was just there last month
Are you going to Big White soon if you are you should check out Gillard Recreational Trails they have some sick tech and jumps but you would have to drive or shuttle up the road isn’t good to bike on
No plans yet
Ok it is about an 1 1/2 hours away from Big White
Awesome video 👍 I kinda like the raw bike sounds rather than music though
#DanContent We love Dan!
Does Dan ride a Ferrum bikes frame?
I don't hear the chatter on the turns either like you do at most places. Just tell Paul to get out that way!
hands down best bike park!
Are u guys going to silver star ???
No plans yet
what is this song in this vid
Dan does have a RUclips channel @Dan Alton
i have skied there
Why we go to the mountain bike park
The turns

Thousand dollar jump clinic? :o
When was that? I was at Sun Peaks a week ago
They were there opening weekend (the "seasons pass holder only", except for them because their special! Just buggin nick!
Lol, i thought this was silverstar, I got a pass for silverstar and I got a free sun peaks day ticket

The dream
What bike is that? Not your enduro?
My downhill bike, YT Tues

Hell ye van can uploaded
Always stoked
Just the style of runs for a hardtail.
Van Can, you couldn´t get enough speed on that drop because you were braiking inside the corner, you have to brake earlier, let go and then you would exit faster. You can also do it at that speed if you boos it. Hope this helps. Great video and riding as ever:))) I would love to visit!

Yee
Whistler still on top
Are you swedish?
My great grandparents were lol
Dope! I was the 1k like🤘
Just like to point out as a local.. this was the opening weekend and it basically rained a week straight just before they opened.. it was wet, there was tons of mud and puddles where ther usually isn't
Did you get a new bike?

Going. Ready. Set. Drop.
#dancontent 🤣🤣🤣

Brake noise 😂
