Megan is such a trooper. I've ridden plenty of lifts, but I would be terrified on that one too. Awesome and unique adventure for the family; an experience that Milo and Owen they will surely remember forever. Thank you for documenting and sharing. Well done, Porter fam.
Haha yes she is, it was definitely a scary one, especially being stopped that high above the ground! Glad you enjoyed the video, this was a really fun one, and the boys will definitely never forget it!
Wow, thank you so much, that means a lot. I put a lot of time into the edit and definitely grew as an editor, so I really appreciate hearing that. Glad you enjoyed the video, have a great day!
Amazing adventure! I feel like we often just think about the riding, but there's everything else that makes the riding trip a full adventure and you've captured it here perfectly!
Thanks, it was a really fun one! I love all the other activities that go along with the riding as well, it really does make the most of a trip somewhere.
Glad to have you back, lots of good vids for you to catch up on too! We got the 3 part Ecuador series, a backcountry yurt in the snow vid, and I'm finishing up a video from skiing and snowboarding our jumps in the backyard!
One word to describe this very inadequately: WOW! What a blessing to be able to enjoy nature and then mountainbiking like this. Thank you for sharing this, not only with your family but also with us!
So incredible you guys! I love watching the videos and fantasizing about going to Ecuador someday! Best type of practical education for the kids too! 👏
This is totally the right way to experience your life WITH KIDS. Once I told my boy. Does daddy retire and focus on travel with you, ok? He says YES. We all think the same way. Buy only you have courage making it. YOLO. and YOLO with kids. Nothing more value than this. You know why you can make this happen? because you have a good wife doing the same thing with you and she has faith.
Hey Eric. If you go to Crankfest this year I hope I can see you. We went last year and it was a blast. This is at Kanuga. If you come to SC you should come to my neighborhood and see some awesome trails me and my friends are building in my forest.
awsome vid dude, i rode that chairlift once, hope that you can come back to ecuador we have amazing trails i recommend cotopaxi bike park its quite fun for all the family
That's cool you rode that lift, glad you enjoyed the video too! We really wanted to go to Cotopaxi Bike Park, it was closed and raining the one day we would have had a chance. I've seen videos though, I wanna go there. We'll be back someday!
I've only ridden around Sedona but I love it there, one of my favorite places! I have a lot of favorite trails there, but I'd recommend calling or stopping into Thunder Mountain Bike Shop in Sedona and talk to them about where to ride, they'll know how the trail conditions are as well.
Thanks! My friends Juan and Alegria helped film this one, they live in Ecuador and are amazing riders and filmers. It was nice having them help so I didn't have to do this one all by myself, then I did all the editing once we got home.
@@PorterMTB That's awesome! And I really appreciate the reply. I'm working on building our RUclips channel and your channel is an inspiration. Keep crushing it!
Whoa, how did you shoot the sequence starting at 07:00? (ruclips.net/video/IUP7AeNPuFk/видео.html) ... nice shots, what gear did you use for that I assume you didn't fly drone by the trail, and cannot imagine you brought "rails" with you, haha.
Loved that you went for the most natural trails and skipped Cotopaxi and Santa Rita Bikepars, that’s just let room for new trails for the next time in Ecuador
Why Netflix? This is better, well produced, and still raw. The only chairlifts I’ve seen sketchier than that were on the news.
but Netflix has braking bad.
I’d agree Seth, between your channel and Porter’s you cover a LOT of ground. 🫀🤓🥸
@@christianstevens9804 my channel sucks lol🤣
Thanks Seth, that means a lot!! Can't wait till we can get together for some more riding!
@@noahhall1270 I disagree. I think that your channel is off to a good start.
I love how Eric isn’t just a dad to Owen and Milo, but for the audience too
Trying to pass on what I know to the next generation!!
Megan is such a trooper. I've ridden plenty of lifts, but I would be terrified on that one too.
Awesome and unique adventure for the family; an experience that Milo and Owen they will surely remember forever.

This is the most underrated mtb RUclips channel ever
Thanks, that means a lot! Trying my best and trying to get better all the time!
You know it’s a good day when porterMTB posts
Thank!! Love hearing that!!
Thanks for coming to this beautiful and enchanted country!
We loved the trip, hope to come back someday!
Dude… what an epic family adventure! 🤘
Thanks Bobo, glad you enjoyed the vid, that was a fun one for sure! Hope to see you this year!
One of the best edited videos I’ve ever seen. Fantastic storyline through your vacation and adventures!
Wow, thank you so much, that means a lot. I put a lot of time into the edit and definitely grew as an editor, so I really appreciate hearing that. Glad you enjoyed the video, have a great day!
Love these adventure videos so far man. These kinds of videos are big inspiration for my own MTB adventures and videos. Keep it coming!
That's so awesome to hear, glad you enjoyed it, lots more to come!

Great video, I love your family interactions. Great shots and music. Very entertaining.

Thanks!! Yeah they crushed it, such a unique thing to ride!
I haven't watched you guys in a while but man am I glad to be back! Such a wholesome family doing amazing adventures ✌️❤️
Glad to have you back, lots of good vids for you to catch up on too! We got the 3 part Ecuador series, a backcountry yurt in the snow vid, and I'm finishing up a video from skiing and snowboarding our jumps in the backyard!

Muy buena aventura para tú familia. Es hermoso mi pais el Ecuador. Acuerdate que tienen que venir a Italia. Un fuerte abrazo

This is the best camera work i've ever seen. Period.
Wow, thank you so much! I had help on this one from my friend Juan, he's really good! Glad you enjoyed the video!
Your boys are adorable. I have three boys, now grown, and these videos remind me of spending time with my boys. Y mi encanta Ecuador!
Thanks! I'm very lucky to get to spend so much time with them. They are growing fast so I'm trying to make the most of it!
Love all your videos my two young sons (10 and 12) just finished their first ever Enduro and had a blast! My dudes love watching your dudes!
That's awesome, glad they had a good time racing, my boys both wanna race more enduros this year too!
" I love it " to quote one of the boys

ECUADOR 🇪🇨🏔 ❤️❤️❤️🇪🇨
Love Ecuador!
Mrs. Porter gonna have PTSD from this trip! Good sport though.... Great videos.
Haha seriously. Thank you!
Love it! Looks like an awesome trip!
Such a great trip, glad you enjoyed the video!
Y'all should come and visit Redding CA to ride some sick trails.
That would be awesome, I've heard it's fun!
So cool!
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!

Love these kinds of videos!!
That's awesome to hear, lots more to come!
"Are we doing this?" I can't ever let my wife see this or there is no way she ever even start riding our local trails haha
Hahaha yeah maybe this isn't the video for her, maybe something more chill! 😂
Looks like a great time!
It was a really fun trip, glad you enjoyed the video!
wow megaaa
Thanks!
Everything is just insaner- Owen
I’m on Megan’s side. That looks a little scary.
Haha yeah both of you are not wrong!
😮😮😮😮😮
SO COOL!! Watch all your videos you should definitely come to Brian Head.
We would love to sometime! We've been to Brian Head in the winter to ski, and I've ridding bikes there once, we'll get down there!
Sweet trip!
Thanks, it was a really fun one!
Hey Eric. If you go to Crankfest this year I hope I can see you. We went last year and it was a blast. This is at Kanuga. If you come to SC you should come to my neighborhood and see some awesome trails me and my friends are building in my forest.
Hey! I don't know if we'll make it to that area this year, trying to figure out the schedule right now, we'd love to make it back though!
@@PorterMTB Alright. That would be great!
awsome vid dude, i rode that chairlift once, hope that you can come back to ecuador we have amazing trails i recommend cotopaxi bike park its quite fun for all the family
That's cool you rode that lift, glad you enjoyed the video too! We really wanted to go to Cotopaxi Bike Park, it was closed and raining the one day we would have had a chance. I've seen videos though, I wanna go there. We'll be back someday!
megen is just like my mom
That's awesome!
I saw you guys here I am a big fan I’m 12 and I do indoor races
That's awesome, good to see you! Keep riding and having fun!
Dog cracked me up
Wao ❤❤❤❤
Holy shit this is so cool
Thanks, it really was an incredible trip!
awsome vid
Love ❤from India🇮🇳🇮🇳
Thanks!!!❤️
Great vid! I’m with your wife on that lift. That’s basically like my worst nightmare. 😂She deserves an award!
Haha she definitely deserves an award, this was not easy for her!
The lifts always seem to stop at THE hightest point
Haha yeah what's up with that!?
Brian head Utah even has a trail were you jump over a car.
I've heard about that, I need to go check it out!
I was wondering… can any size tire fit on a chairlift? It would be super helpful to know
As far as I know they'll figure out a way to put whatever bike you've got on there!
@@PorterMTB great! Thanks so much. It’s always so inspiring to see kids out and shredding!
Lol megan
Haha seriously, she was NOT into the chairlift! She did love the trip though!
Where do you buys the black diamondback 5 panel hats from. They aren't on diamondbacks website
I wish they sold them, only chance would be hitting up Diamondback customer service and asking, but as of right now they didn't make too many!
Ok
Do y’all have any trail recommendations for mountain biking in Arizona?
I've only ridden around Sedona but I love it there, one of my favorite places! I have a lot of favorite trails there, but I'd recommend calling or stopping into Thunder Mountain Bike Shop in Sedona and talk to them about where to ride, they'll know how the trail conditions are as well.
@@PorterMTB Ok, thanks!
Hello from Finland!!
Hello! We would love to visit Finland to ride sometime!
@@PorterMTB that sounds amazing!!
Awesome video!!! Did you hire people to take extra video in Ecuador or bring them a team with you?
Thanks! My friends Juan and Alegria helped film this one, they live in Ecuador and are amazing riders and filmers. It was nice having them help so I didn't have to do this one all by myself, then I did all the editing once we got home.
@@PorterMTB That's awesome! And I really appreciate the reply. I'm working on building our RUclips channel and your channel is an inspiration. Keep crushing it!
can owen wheelie his mtb just out of question
He's working on it, should have them by the end of this summer!
@@PorterMTB u replied to me omg im a big fan
Muito legal adoro ,que incrível o cachorro que subiu junto com vocês 🤩
Obrigado, que bom que gostou do vídeo! Aquele era um bom cão!
Whoa, how did you shoot the sequence starting at 07:00? (ruclips.net/video/IUP7AeNPuFk/видео.html) ... nice shots, what gear did you use for that I assume you didn't fly drone by the trail, and cannot imagine you brought "rails" with you, haha.
Thanks! That was a nice Sony camera on a Ronin gimbal so you can run with the camera and it's smooth, it turned out great!
Do the boys not go to school?
They go to regular school in the fall and home school in the spring, it's a good combo!
I got bit by a snake
Oh no, hope it wasn't too bad!
Hi I am your fan club sign up for Facebook today ok
OSHA approved chairlift!
Megan adds such a great balance to the videos, hope to see her more on these adventures. I think she must be a pretty awesome person!
She really is, glad to have her along on these trips!!
Loved that you went for the most natural trails and skipped Cotopaxi and Santa Rita Bikepars, that’s just let room for new trails for the next time in Ecuador
Everything we rode was so much fun, I definitely wanna come back to ride the bike parks too!
Brother you are blessed to see the world with your family like that and get to ride your bikes on top of that!!!
Very much so, it was an amazing trip!
Great video!
The kids are great and so open minded.
They really are, they're loving the adventures!
First! Keep up the work!
Nice work! Thanks!
Man that sugar high he had at the end was hilarious.
Haha yeah he was on one!
