Really enjoyed that. Was mega.
Thanks
Thanks for this!! Riding here next weekend and this popped up staying at the lodge for girls wkend!
That’s awesome, have lots of fun
I love your videos ! The way you involve the lads 👌🏻
My jaw is aching as I’m smiling all the way through !! 👍😎
🙏
Good timing for this to come out, me and the other half are off to Afan lodge this Friday for the weekend. Looking forward to it!
🤘
Brilliant guys ! we LOVED every minuet , Pinned at it's best with an Idiots guide. Loving the look of those wild trails and can't wait to go and ride them soon . E-bikes for us though !
And us!!
Awesome edit, awesome looking trails too. Shame I live so far away from there or I'd be heading down this weekend to give them a go 👍
🤘
Cant wait for this, not done all the trails there yet, some proper sketchy 1s, a pro trains on these trails alot
Great video, only been riding the masts since lockdown started, rode enduro today, slippy down the shoots. Wouldn't worry about giving the location away, the locals done a mass ride last year before they started the tree felling to highlight the trails and show the NRW how important they are to local riders, then put it all over social media.🤔😀🚴♂️🏴🚴♂️.
🤘🤘
Cracking vid again, stage 4 is washed out now in it, was up the masts Wednesday on my own, so much to do, up there again tomoz after work and hopefully have my camera this time, theres a local kid on here thats rides them, if u type in afan masts it comes up, awsome rider for a kid, and dooes it in the dark haha
🤘🤘
Jim, you raced here April last year, there was a mash up on Saturday, and stage 4 was included on Sunday Bemba.
Memory like a stoner!! 😬
Awesome video lads!!!
Cheers
That looks more like it, I'll definitely give it a go next time I'm visiting friends down south.
👌
Hi the viaduct by village you passed over is the birth place of Richard Burton if you didn't know great blogs by the keep them coming. Thanks
Chris
🙏 great bit of info 👌
There’s so much up there - some great stuff on the front of the mountain too - I’m so out of my comfort level there 🥺
😬🤘
Gulley run is the best trail you missed! Look up some vids or try it the next you time your in town
Ok mate
Nice vid, I can't seem to find any of these trails on trail forks. I like the look of these👍
🙏👌
The locals dont put stuff on trailforks, , if you can find it, ride it, or ask a local when you are there.
Have you raced there? 😅
No dude
The outros 😂
🤣
one good thing since lockdown is the prolification of new trails their everywhere im blessed to be close to everything bpw 30 mins afon and cwm carn 40 mins Barry sidings and Smilog 6 miles from me and Tyn Y Coed woods less than two some great trails off the Garth mountain now to.
Nice 👌
If you’re in s wales again I can show you some great local trails
Love this video you can see the mountain I live on right in front of the masts by the sea also what’s the app your using called?
Trailforks mate
looks different without the trees, glad they didn't cause too much damage felling, also i guess some of the trails not on trail forks might be getting used by motos
👍
Another great edit lads! How long did Tod take to learn manual's, did he dedicate practice time on them? Well impressed👍
It was his lockdown project, about 2 weeks
@@PinnedTV 😲..2 weeks, oh to be young again..😂. Fairplay
Endo corners are the best,
👌
I have no idea how you run ohlins forks or the conversion. I bought the conversion kit for my yari from j-tech and it was horrendous for bike park big hits and rough stuff. It was okay for pottering around. How do you set yours up?
We don't run conversation kits, we run Ohlins suspension! It's the best! JTech tuned and set up for us!
Afan Masts is an awesome spot🤙🏼
🤘🤘
Pinned TV looks loads different now the trees have gone!
@@PinnedTV should have tried the farside trail
Hi Pinned TV, what Switchback frame size did Tod ride when he started?.....asking for a friend....I'm really tall myself.😜
Small 15"
@@PinnedTV Thanks heaps. They've stopped making that size switcher, so only option for smaller riders is the slackline.....or another brand......love the videos, keep em' coming
I'm glad you ended up there after riding Blade, which is one of the most boring trails ever ! Also please keep the location quiet for this one :)
It's all good, been in touch with trail.builders.and it's virtually official now. Forestry allow the tracks, even removed brash from the trails after logging
Lots of people know about the Masts and the FC are cool with the trails being there ....aslong as people dont leave shit all over the place it doesn't matter how many people go there .
@@daveandmerlin its pretty good up there for riders not leaving their shit behind, probably because its a different kind of rider to your normal trail centre hero,
@@mx2strokes250 we are talking about South Wales here .....crap and Flytipping all over the place ! Such a shame .
Nice one guys but you miss lots and yes it was jitter
There are some we can't really put up on here! 😉
@@PinnedTV jawsaw and kinder you guys would like...and up the valley is hillbillies great longer trail
Its not a proper Daniel feature vid unless he has an off 😂 can tell hes trying like👏👍👍
He's very trying!! 🤣
Great content, hoping to go next month. What are the clear lens glasses you are wearing? Cheers
Melon Alleycat
Wow just think how fast you could have gone with a coil, shorter frame and not clipped in 😅
Not clipped in anymore
Great vid. 👍
🙏
This helped me very much plan my visit Saturday
I parked at the car park the guy parked at that pointed you to the masts and rode from there 🤟🏻
Took the hardtail for the day
And done all them lines it was epic
And you should have done the gulley ! It starts open then drops into the gully and was so much fun 🤟🏻
I have a clip of my blind run on it on insta sasmechanix 👌🏻👍🏻
Nice one
you said that sonny had an over the bars what was is his sir name
Baston
@@PinnedTV because my name is sonny and I had a crash on that same part
by the way I love the videos
9:11 Ay?
He gets bored on long uphill fire roads
What's with all these 'Premieres'? Maybe there's a reason behind it but it just annoys me a bit.
Just to let folk know what's coming up. I'd say you get annoyed quite easily then, try some therapy buddy,. or just another channel! 🤣
Actually I've just watched a RUclips tutorial on premiers and I've been doing it wrong, should just be premiered very close to it going live. So thanks for making me aware of that, I'll chamgey Premier technique for future vlogs. You can still try watch other channels mind, but none are as radical and interactive as us!! 🤣🤣🤘🤘
@@PinnedTV I did think it was a little odd having a premier pop up on my feed with 3 weeks to go, seemed a bit excessive. I can appreciate when RUclips add new features it can take a while getting your head round it.
Sadly Afan Masts ain't the same as it was after the felling 😕
it's better
