Skypark's MTB trails have seen a lot of changes over the years. There are changes I love and others I'm grumpy about. Like I miss the wall ride on Arrow and the old "M double" on Lower Arrow.
They have done a couple small Enduro races and at other times will do an open run on Comet. Other than that, they tend to do community type events often with free bike demos (you still gotta pay to get into the park of course).
Do so at your own risk but I’ve not heard of anyone getting their bike stolen from within the park. I figure everyone in the park paid decent money to enter and aren’t in a bike-stealing mindset. 🤷🏾
@ i never actually hit it i was going to hit it the last time i went i got all the speed and everything and when i was finally about to hit it it was gone 😢
You're not short, and not particularly handsome either, but you are a BELOVED RUclips MTB content provider and influencer. I look forward to your vids every time. Thanks for this one too! I'll be returning to Skypark quite soon. Anticipating my third trip to Whistler next spring, would love to see you there homie!
@@mtb_alan Maybe I need a filter. I don't think Johnny Depp's so hot either. I do love and respect you though Alan! We've bumped into each other three times now over the years....once at Skypark, and twice at Summit. I took your recommendation not long ago and hired Max to coach me with jumping too. I'm sure I'll bump into you again at some point because even at 67, I have no plans to discontinue mountain biking any time soon. I'm spending all of December biking at several spots in Florida. (There are no mountains in fla, but some really cool destinations😊)
Heck yeah! Keep rockin' man! And stoked to hear you hired Max. Hope that went well! But yeah...if you ever see me on the trail, just yell out, "Hey there handsome!" 😂

Neverland! Super fun
💯💯💯
That looks so good!
It seems well maintained, no washboard or other high traffic issues…
💯
Nice runs, that place looks fun!
Thanks! It's a good time and one of the most unique parks I've ever been to.
Love Skypark.
💯
Great video! Going to try and head up this weekend.
Heck yeah! Have fun!
i cant wait to ride the finished jump line we were there in october for my birthday and they had only half open!
Heck yeah! Sounds like it was a rad birthday!
Nice update video!
Come on back up to SLO area on the central coast and hit us up for some sick trails and shuttle adventures!
Thanks! Yeah! I need to get back up to SLO. I do like a good shuttle too.
Thats pretty cool! I wonder if they do some kind of tournament any time of the year, those trails are really cool

Did they change the Comet drop at all? It looks super chill on your video, but I remember it bigger.
It’s about the same. They added a little catch ramp for those who might hit it slower.
Was there yesterday, noticed they took the wall ride out on Arrow.
Yeah...I liked that wall ride. The berm is OK.
@@mtb_alan Comes up quick. Was actually pretty loose there. We def need some rain!

Hi Alan, I’m wondering how safe is it to lock your bike while you enjoy other activities in the village ?

I definitely miss having the old bridge on jumpline and all the arrow features that they have removed ☹️
Agreed and agreed.
love skypark so much it’s so sad they took the wall ride out i think it’s just to fix it up because it was falling apart
I hope you're right. I liked the Arrow wall ride. Brrrddddt!

It's funny, when people see a black and white photo of me, they say I look like Johnny Depp, so maybe if I were light skinned, I'd be handsome.
