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.
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.
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 :-)
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.
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.
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!
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.
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
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!
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.
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
I was at whistler the week before you for the first time. It's like disney for mountain bikers! I also didn't experience the smoke you did, crazy how that happened.
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!
I have watched this 7 or 8 times over the last year. Hard to imagine a ride like that. From such extremely different surroundings several times! I think your recovering from surgery today. Get well soon Seth.
@@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'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!
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.
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.
I'm not even mountain biking, just enjoy all of Seths videos because they're so damn awesome! And they keep getting better and better with every upload..
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 ?)
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!
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.)
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.
I was just re-watching some some older seths bike hack vids and the exact moment the bike tyre punchered my smart watch just vigorously vibrated. Pefect videos have perfect timing
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!
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
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
“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

Looks like a blast! I've gotta watch those other Dirt Diaries entries!
BRIAN!
1:36 drama when Seth says “let’s go for a trail run buddy”
“My favorite friend right now”
i"m a little late to the party !!
but that waz my fav line of the vid !!!
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.
Living that plug life since the day I was BORN! #pluglife
Plug walk my guy
The music during the alpine single track part of the video made it magical!
So beautiful. Anyone name the piece please
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
May be my new favourite seths bike hacks video 🤘🤘🤘🤘
agreed
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

Dont we just love when Seth makes a new video?
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!

I'm 50 and crushing it.

"we didn't choose the plug life, the plug life chose us." - Seth
Great job capturing the epicness of Whistler - the heli drop is so cool!
Blake's a pro slopestyle rider, only recently has he started riding enduro/downhill.
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.
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
BREATHTAKING VIEW! Thank u so much Seth for making this film😊
Great storytelling! Looks like it was an awesome trip.
Great video and amazing music for the alpine ride after the helicopter. Loved the added bonus of you meeting up with Blake; sound guy
So damn awesome!!!!!
I could watch this content for hours. The music makes the scenery and thrill come alive!
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 !
YYESSSS FINALLY ANOTHER VID!!!!!!!! EXCITEMENT IS FILLING MY BODY!!!!😂😂
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!
„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.
One of my favorite videos yet! Awesome to see you and the GMBN guys together. 2 of my favorite channels
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?
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.

Definitely awesome to have two of my favorite RUclips Mtn bike celebrities together on their respective channels 🤘 Great video

Well, thats one hell(i) of a shuttel🤦🏻♂️😂😂
Thanks for sharing. These videos get me stoked and also makes me want to push my limits on my bike. Cheers
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!
That just went to the top of the bike bucket list 🤘 Always enjoy your adventures Seth !!
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

Looks amazing you should go back to berm creek and make improvements
been watching this channel for years and so glad that you have received the recognition that you worked hard for. And fuck yes! GBMN
6:18 that fly sound made me swat next to my ear lmaoo
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
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?
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!
I watched every one of your videos. But this one stood out in a really good way. I love it.
the way he says legitimate talented film makers like he isn't one makes me feel sad
Blake always cracks me up! Martyn is the ultimate inspiration. Gmnb, embn, gcn are great. Seth is the man
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 😂
Great to see you meet up with Blake and GMBN team!
11:02 you didn’t mention Ifht
I have watched this 7 or 8 times over the last year. Hard to imagine a ride like that. From such extremely different surroundings several times! I think your recovering from surgery today. Get well soon Seth.
I hour ago and it has 2k likes seth is the true mountain biker and the best👍😇💪
And the best editing ever
Holy cow Seth. I feel like I can see you're skills on the big features growing leaps and bounds. Those were some massive jumps. Fearless!
Seth,”We didn’t choose the plug life,the plug life chose us.” Lol
Perfect video, Seth! The classical music is spot on and makes this much more than just ”video clip” - it`s a mini-documentary now.
Cooking with Seth
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! :)
can you go to bend Oregon
Love your vids, but honestly came for this one because of Blake. Officially the worlds happiest and most excited person!
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

All these bike channels making collabs with Seth, and it’s the best thing ever!
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 getting 3rd. That was awesome!
