    Hi Phil. This is Corneliu. We've meet in the afternoon on the crosswalk in Whistler village. You did an awesome video as usual, but this is special as I was able to spot me and my wife in the crowd watching the Redbull Joyride when you passed over with the chair-lift. It was so nice to meet you.

    • @SkillsWithPhil

    I think I would have enjoyed whistler more if I could ride like you. I've seen so many whistler vids, but this one is my favorite. I especially love the manuals. Did you ever feel outgunned on the smaller travel bike? That evil calling is on my short list of bikes to try.

    • @SkillsWithPhil
      @SkillsWithPhil  7 лет назад +1

      I think had I had the option the Insurgent would have been a better bike here. I feel like not having a full face held me back more (psychologically) than the bike. The times where I felt like the bike was a bit under-gunned was in the steep compressions rock compressions where the exit was pretty nasty. Otherwise, I think it's amazing that this bike can do so much.
