I've watched the whole video with a smile on my face, I've never been in Whistler but your work made me feel like i was there. You're an awesome story teller
Seth, you are a "legitimate, talented filmmaker." Your videos are also educational and can stand on their own without the artistic component, and I think that leads to a lot of your audience not noticing the thought that goes into how you direct and shoot them (which is great for educating, I've never once been distracted by lousy quality). But trust that many totally appreciate and respect the creative component of your work.
I love it when you go to Whistler, one of the most beautiful places to film. I used to live near Qualicum Bay on Vancouver Island so I know what it's live over on the West Coast. I now live in New York.
This is my favorite of your videos that I have seen so far. Also love the one where you build Alex a custom van. Binge watching your videos lately (since ordering a new bike), I believe you have gotten better and better over the years to the point that many of your videos go beyond just biking to feel sort of life enhancing, lifestyle type influence. I like how you have become increasingly positive (in my opinion) and worldly, yet true to your roots and your home life. Anyway thanks and best wishes going forward. I'm sure you are a favorite channel for a lot of people.
Oh my god .. your life is my dream..I’m 45 years old and can’t do this stuff now but I sooo wish I would have done it in my 20’s or 30’s. your my favourite channel Seth.. keep grabbing life by the balls and doing what you love to do . I’m jealous!
Get out there and ride mate :-) Im 38 and out there having a blast on my mtb. First xc now trail bike and far more downhill. Just get pads and decent helmet :-)
Wow, a dude from the flat lands of Florida, reaching many cyclers across the globe. Almost a mil subs, way to go! I live in South Florida as well, LORD willing, I will be able to ride Whistler next month. A dream come true. I just won't be doing the heli drop thing, cuz that is way out of my budget.
That weekend in whistler was gold, everyone were there. Ive seen the most epic content this summer, from you, bcpov, daily mountain bike rider, Brian, Jordan, GMBN, the loam ranger, really the level is so high with you guys, all of you’ve set the bar really really high.
I'll admit I don't often watch the same video twice right after each other but man this 1 I did. When the music kicked in during that heli drop run I got the chills! Superb editing seth, this is top shelf!
The smoke over in Washington is really annoying because I do bmx racing and the air quality is so bad that it makes it seem like the air is on fire. But it doesn’t affect my breathing that much because I don’t have asthma but I can only imagine what it is like for people with asthma and how hard/bad the air is to breathe.
------///////-/:__________________________ yeah I live in the Columbia basin (the desert ) which is where all the smoke from Canada just sits but luckily it’s windy which means I might be able to go riding tomorrow
WOW!!! I think my life goal right now is riding with you or Blake. I cant believe he towed you into that huge gap. This is exactly why friends make everything better. So pumped to see you guys ride together. My new favorite video of yours Seth. Thanks BLAKe!
Hey seth i just want to tell you how mich your vidoes mean to be my mom is going through cancer treatments and your videos are what help keep me sane i plan on getting some of your products soon
You are doing it right, my guy. My mom also went through cancer treatment and I know it’s a rough time. The biggest piece of advise I have to to keep positive at all times. I see that you posted this comment a while ago, so I hope things have gotten better for you and your family!
I am so jealous, killed my bike 2 weeks ago (it was a Walmart special:) ) and now I'm waiting for my Specialized pitch sport to come in, and it's killing me :( Please keep up the videos, if I can't ride, at least I can watch
So am I!! I just got my bike 3 months ago I use it to commute to work 4 times a week and when I can I practice position, skills and ride some trails. Seth inspired me to begin and hopefully we'll ride at Whistler one day!
Haha, oh man this was a joy to watch! Looks like you had so much fun. And the collab with GMBN and Blake is awesome. Love that guy! His story at the end though xD
Don’t get me wrong, amazing video. However I feel like it should’ve been split up into two or 3 separate vids. I’d like to see more of raging river and more of whistler separately. Keep it up seth
It's doable, but with the braking bumps it's definitely an advanced thing to try. To go fast enough to clear the jumps would require hands and wrists of steel.
Congrats on over 900k subs! You'll be at a million soon! I've been a subscriber since your DNM dropper post video and I haven't missed a video since. Love what you do man, keep up the good work.
@@patmentoring6391 i live in mn so seeing him go to duluth really made me realize how much of a mistake it was to invest in a road bike, probably going to sell my current bike and buy a decent mountain bike
I've only been watching your videos for a few weeks now and I'm already thinking about getting another downhill bike! I sold mine a long time ago and haven't ridden much since but you've got me fully stoked to ride again, I need that therapy man. Keep up the good work. Excited to see what Berm Peak is going to turn out like.
Hey Seth bike hacks I’m a young mountain bike rider and I never would of started riding until I met your channel you give good tips and hacks to improve my bike. Although I have had some very bad accidents I have watched you and got back out there straight away and kept trying everything that I have failed thank you a lot.
WA Resident here. You've inspired me to get back out on my MTB. I've been riding the road bike too much! XD. That smoke was no joke, I had to commute in with a filter mask a few days. (I'm a mouth breather on some of the big hills 'round here.)
Fabio Wibmer and Lukas Knopf were there at the same time too! You had a meeting with them? (If no I want to ask you if you now these austrian and german guys at all ?)
Him: it made it challenging Me: challenging!? You should ride near me, there’s god dam thorn bushes on either side, thin trails so you can’t avoid them and you clothes/skin won’t last 1 trail. And I can’t go fast... because I suck, I’m a snowboarder, but I live in south Australia so I can’t ride until I go to Victoria. So I ride mtb.
As a paratrooper, can confirm that landing and riding your bike in Whistler is better. Cool stuff Seth thanks for the great content. Been stepping it up!
Seth and Alex have gotten me in mtbking, just bought my first mtb, Trek Marlin 5, at the end of the season sale. Hoping to get some miles done by the start of the winter. Love you all.
Just retired my diamondback topanga hardtail and just ordered myself a 2019 specialized stumpjumper comp alloy 27.5 , I'm so stoked! Cant wait to rip some trails here in Washington, gotta check out that trail system
It’s was so good to meet you and do a lap together Seth. Loved the video buddy
Likewise! I can’t wait to see the GMBN episode
You’re my fave celeb!
Did you get your GoPro back from the fox?
My 2 favourite MTB channels. Looking forward to that collaboration
My two favorite 2 wheeled RUclips goods who are great at Interesting and sketchy lines made a video together can't wait
Heck ya Seth! Doing Crankworx right!
I've watched the whole video with a smile on my face, I've never been in Whistler but your work made me feel like i was there. You're an awesome story teller
That place is on my bucket list.
i would love it you should check out mahalo my dude
Looks like a blast! I've gotta watch those other Dirt Diaries entries!
BRIAN!
Blake Samson and Seth in the same vid? Absolute heaven
I know right
They should collab again
i said the same thing, blakes the man
Yeah, I really Blake, so down to earth :)
Amen

“Super aggro ninja turtle downhill riders”
Reid Ridenhour those words should not be said in one sentence
My favourite thing Seth has ever said in youtube
I was gonna say the same thing 🤣
I’m one of those
1:36 drama when Seth says “let’s go for a trail run buddy”
Living that plug life since the day I was BORN! #pluglife
Plug walk my guy
“My favorite friend right now”
i"m a little late to the party !!
but that waz my fav line of the vid !!!
Epic adventure, Seth. And it looks like you're a stone throw away from 1mil subs!
The countdown begins!
@@SethsBikeHacks maybe BCpov will bake you a cake for making the climb to 1mil. 🎂
Hes at over 2 mil now in 2020
The music during the alpine single track part of the video made it magical!
So beautiful. Anyone name the piece please
I want to go to whistler so bad! And congrats on the 3rd place dirt diaries video!
should go before the wildfires make the air unbreathable, it is pretty bad at this point in the year, total bummer
TCG 2018
yah i feel extremely lucky to live here
Great job capturing the epicness of Whistler - the heli drop is so cool!
I love it when you go to Whistler, one of the most beautiful places to film. I used to live near Qualicum Bay on Vancouver Island so I know what it's live over on the West Coast. I now live in New York.
fantastic filmwork on this, my guy. Love the music, variety of shots, and just DEPTH of this video. Glad you got your part in Dirt Diaries. Yeewww!
Great storytelling! Looks like it was an awesome trip.

May be my new favourite seths bike hacks video 🤘🤘🤘🤘
agreed
The discipline it takes to pack that epic of an adventure into 11 minutes. You are a wizard! 1 mil right around the corner!
Wow! I didn't notice how little time this was? I thought it was 40 minutes or so. This is why Seth is a wizard.
Oh my god .. your life is my dream..I’m 45 years old and can’t do this stuff now but I sooo wish I would have done it in my 20’s or 30’s. your my favourite channel Seth.. keep grabbing life by the balls and doing what you love to do . I’m jealous!
Get out there and ride mate :-) Im 38 and out there having a blast on my mtb. First xc now trail bike and far more downhill. Just get pads and decent helmet :-)
41 here and started riding MTB after 10 years as a roadie. You can do it, start now!
I'm 50 and crushing it.
I’m 85 and I’m still shredding...
get out there and do it man.. im 45 and still shredding.
7:28 are you kidding me? that scenery is pure nature and freedom! basically what riding my MTB is all about! really loved that shot, seth! :)
„on a heli drop you don’t actually jump out of the helicopter” fabio wibmer: hold my beer
Exactly
You mean hold my collar bone 🦴
Well at least Seth didn't risk breaking his collarbone.
With headphones on, That fly @ 6:16 made me look around confused the first time! Excellent video as always and congrats on the 3rd place win :)

This was by far the best & my favorite video to date! Well done!
"we didn't choose the plug life, the plug life chose us." - Seth
I AM SO HAPPY RIGHT NOW YOU TOO ARE THE Only bike youtubers I watch and I have beed waiting for this for so long
Oh God! I missed you! I had a blast watching this vid.
I'm a newbie, hopefully one day I can ride those trails at Whistler
I've been watching loads of your videos over the last few weeks. But this one here has to be my favourite. It has everything.
Dont we just love when Seth makes a new video?
One of my favorite videos yet! Awesome to see you and the GMBN guys together. 2 of my favorite channels
YYESSSS FINALLY ANOTHER VID!!!!!!!! EXCITEMENT IS FILLING MY BODY!!!!😂😂
been watching this channel for years and so glad that you have received the recognition that you worked hard for. And fuck yes! GBMN
So damn awesome!!!!!
Great video and amazing music for the alpine ride after the helicopter. Loved the added bonus of you meeting up with Blake; sound guy
5:16 that's the kind of random responses I get talking to my friend's
8:18 Goosebumps ! That music and the view, so amazing !
6:18 that fly sound made me swat next to my ear lmaoo
I'll admit I don't often watch the same video twice right after each other but man this 1 I did. When the music kicked in during that heli drop run I got the chills!
Superb editing seth, this is top shelf!
Blake's a pro slopestyle rider, only recently has he started riding enduro/downhill.
BREATHTAKING VIEW! Thank u so much Seth for making this film😊
The smoke over in Washington is really annoying because I do bmx racing and the air quality is so bad that it makes it seem like the air is on fire. But it doesn’t affect my breathing that much because I don’t have asthma but I can only imagine what it is like for people with asthma and how hard/bad the air is to breathe.

I could watch this content for hours. The music makes the scenery and thrill come alive!
11:02 you didn’t mention Ifht
I watched every one of your videos. But this one stood out in a really good way. I love it.
Well, thats one hell(i) of a shuttel🤦🏻♂️😂😂
Congrats! On getting 3rd. That was awesome!
I am so jealous, killed my bike 2 weeks ago (it was a Walmart special:) ) and now I'm waiting for my Specialized pitch sport to come in, and it's killing me :(
Please keep up the videos, if I can't ride, at least I can watch
well congrats on your bike, I have the pitch expert so if the comp isn t too far off it will be amazing.
I have the Pitch Comp, it is a very nice ride. Have tons of fun!!
@@xallyislas3779 thanks, great to hear, I hope it's good. If you can't tell I'm a newbie to MTB. 😀
@@bravetamedhamster7917 I hope it is. But it really can't be worse then the FrankensteinMart bike I had 😀
So am I!! I just got my bike 3 months ago I use it to commute to work 4 times a week and when I can I practice position, skills and ride some trails. Seth inspired me to begin and hopefully we'll ride at Whistler one day!
That just went to the top of the bike bucket list 🤘 Always enjoy your adventures Seth !!
Great work as always. With the epic film score you used in this, the video could have been an hour long and it wouldn't have been long enough!
Congratulations on breaking through 900K! See you at one million! Cheers!
Almost 1 mil subs

Two of my favourite channels in one vid. Love it :)
BC is amazing. I feel so lucky to live here. Seth Vancouver island check that out one day. BC bike race land.
Or Fernie, or Big White, or Silver Star, or Squamish, or Cypress, or..... We really do live in MTB Mecca don't we?
Awesome stuff! Looks like you had an amazing trip. Congrats on taking 3rd in the Dirt Diaries!
Looks amazing you should go back to berm creek and make improvements
Yet another great & high quality video! Amazing work Seth.
You said Blake was a pro dh rider but he was a pro slope style rider. Still a good vid though
good catch! I misspoke
Nobodies perfect 🙂
Pretty sure he was a "pro" dirt jumper actually :p
He does ride many disciplines though
@@SethsBikeHacks delete the video, can't watch it because of this. Unsubbed
@@votaveri 😂
It's remarkable how far you've come. Keep it up, mate. You're a God on the trails!
Seth make everything looks so cinematic. I wish I can ride there.
Seth... you make award winning entries EVERY WEEK on RUclips my man!! how can i like this video twice?
Would you ever consider dong whistler bike park on a hardtail? I always wanted to go there but don't have the money for a good full suspension bike.
It's doable, but with the braking bumps it's definitely an advanced thing to try. To go fast enough to clear the jumps would require hands and wrists of steel.
Thank you!
Thanks for the feedback! I really appreciate it!
Congrats on over 900k subs! You'll be at a million soon! I've been a subscriber since your DNM dropper post video and I haven't missed a video since. Love what you do man, keep up the good work.
I would love to do this but i dont have a mountain bike
Look on ebay and craigslist's, people sell high end bikes that are 5-10 years outdated for next to nothing. Got a specialized rockhopper pro for 200

the way he says legitimate talented film makers like he isn't one makes me feel sad

Perfect video, Seth! The classical music is spot on and makes this much more than just ”video clip” - it`s a mini-documentary now.
