    Have you been to Whistler yet? If so are you about the tech, flow, or jump lines? And if you haven't been yet, why not?!

    I took a group of Whistler virgins in 2016 and at the end of day 1 my buddy goes, "This is the Greatest day of my life and I am married and have 2 kids don't tell my family". It really is life changing.

      Nice! That's part of my goal. It took years before I could finally put together a trip to Whistler. But now that I have, I know I gotta go back every year. There's a reason it's called the MTB mecca. 🤘🏾

    Haven’t been to Whistler but i hope to go there some day. The trails there look real nice. Technical stuff mixed with some flow is my kinda jam.

      Thanks!
      That will be a haul when you do it. But you'll have plenty of fellow Aussies to keep you company when arrive. I got more used to the Aussie accent in the village than the Canadian accent. 😆
      I hope to get to your hemisphere someday!

    Great tech, love the trail previews! I go to Whistler every year but haven't yet taken videos for my channel - you've inspired me to do so this year! BTW: personal preference, but for me on most of these I find a good enduro bike (160/170mm) feels better than a DH bike. The suspension feels more dialed and on most of these it won't bottom out, and the bike is a bit more nimble and maneuverable since except for the fast jump lines I'm usually not riding at high speeds on most trails.

    • @mtb_alan
      @mtb_alan  5 месяцев назад +1

      Heck yeah! Make those vids!
      I definitely had fun on my Reign SX which is a dual crown but not a DH bike. It's a 190/165 bike and great for bike parks.

    Whistler has to be so much fun. I say we have a contest and the winner gets to ride with you there. Maybe Colorado or California if that's easier.

    • @mtb_alan
      @mtb_alan  5 месяцев назад

      Ha! The contest would just be one of timing and shouting at me in the lift line. 😄
