I need to correct for something really important in the video. When I looked at the creek gap I said the landing seemed janky, but when I rode it the landing was super smooth. The reason I say this is that someone hauled a shovel out there and toiled in the sun on that landing. The final word? The whole gap was rad as hell and sent smooth as butter.
Thanks to Minh Hai for showing us around! Kauai was amazing, but I'm home now and it's time to start working on the dungeon. Once the weather clears up, on to Berm Creek! In other news, official jerseys are now available for preorder. Check the description for links!
Holy crap, this is so perfect. Incredible vistas, beautiful trail, a local who knows where to find this amazing stuff and the weather to make it all work. This might well be my all time favourite video of yours, just stunning.
My Playtime have you ever been to Wharncliffe / Grenoside woods pal in Sheffield? Only asking because if you go to sherwood it might be worth adventuring a bit further out to those woods, there's some narly trails that Steve pete's had made that'll blow your mind and in my case break my arm lol
My Playtime it's basically my real name (first names Richie that's short for Richard) and I hear ya I've only just jumped back on a bike for off road in last year but I've commuted on it for 10 years, still major unfit though and tend to ride down hill and push up. I'm on ps4 buddy but don't really get the time with having 2 kids under 6yo, I might only get on it once a month but feel free to add me if your on ps4 my psn's richthestig
Hey thank you for converting to Celsius ... the question was already forming in my mind when you helpfully let the rest of the world know what the temperature was. :D
Can't agree more, anyone criticising him for spending $1000 for a day of amazing memories and new friends, think about how much you spend on your plastic beach getaways which leave you with nothing more than temporary tan lines and forgettable hours in expensive beds. Value is entirely subjective and I don't there's any better way to spend your money than on memorable experiences.
My favorite video of yours yet. I just bought another specialized rock hopper pro and have gotten back into riding here recently.Your videos help me out a lot!
I lived on Maui for years, that's where I started mountain biking. As you observed, Hawaii is pretty amazing. On Maui at the time, there were 2 trails. 2. On the entire island. You can't road trip to another trail system an hour or 2 away...you just ride the same 2 trails. Land access and building new trails is insanely difficult compared to most of the other US states. It's a mixed bag for sure. Glad you had fun and got to share this experience with your viewers, it really is the most beautiful place on earth. Whenever I had a little money and time I would take my surfboard and a tent and go camp on Kauai and surf and hang out...it's beautiful.
Bummers! I live on Oahu. I was "right next door". I just got into MTB a few weeks ago, and I have found your videos invaluable to my noob experience. I am late to the game (I will be 50 in August), and your videos have helped me avoid a lot of new riders' mistakes. Thanks!
Wow! 10/10! One of my favorite videos so yet! So much environment: trees, dirt, landscape and I felt a smidgen of the culture there. It's just so nice and you sure did finish it off strong!
I come back and watch this video all the time because the discovery and exploration that comes with mountain biking is what makes me love it so much. Always quality content Seth!
I love your videos. I don't really have mountain bike trails near my house (we have a massive park full of trails down the street, but it's full of pedestrians) you make me want to go somewhere crazy and ride there. thank you. I'm still in high school, but biking is one of my favorite things.
I love your videos. I follow a couple of other mountain biking youtubers but there's just something about yours that makes me love it more than any other channel. I can't put my finger on what it is but keep doing what you're doing!
way cool. Seth, you know why I like your vids..... the music that you insert. Your Whistler elevator music riding the lifts.... today's Hawaiian drums. Your video's remind me of the Warren Miller Ski flicks that was/still is part of the skiing culture. Nicely done.
bullwhip johnson , ahhh, you're not incorrect. Lawrence Welk pioneered the original elevator sounds. The question I have is, how did elevator music become it's own style that is used universally? 😊
Muddy Paws The Champagne Music of LW is something I grew up with. There was a private Radio channel called Muzak that was available to businesses. Groceries, Department stores and others subscribed. They produced music like 101 Strings and the like that did instrumental covers of popular songs. Like the Beatles Yesterday.
Ok so I travel a lot and I got the opportunity to ride there with some locals, and these were some of the coolest trails ever, and also that tunnel was from an old sugarcane plantation railway.
SETH YOU MAKE ME LOOK UP TO THINGS! I hope me and you can ride one day. I’m 13 and you got me to ride more. But I don’t have a great bike but I’ll make due. My dads Gary fisher is the reason it all started and you. Hope we can meet eachother one day
Seth's Bike Hacks hey thanks, I will once he quits but for now I’m using a mongoose Mack. Honestly you have made my day Seth! I will continue to look up to you and work hard for some money. My next bike I’d like is the diamond back recoil 29. You have no idea how much this means to me
Kauai, is the most relaxing out of all the islands and it has the nicest people. Don't forget to go snorkeling, they have a lot of beautiful fish and turtles. Take it easy.
As I've been consuming mtb youtube content since late January I have been wondering if some Kauai riding would ever come up. I'd never searched for it but then this popped up while looking for something else. Kauai is my favorite place that I know of on Earth. I made my own road bike video of the climb up Waimea Canyon in 2016 and I just loved riding all over the island. This video is telling me I should really consider packing my mountain bike next time I go. The only downside is a can road bike right from where we stay. With the mtb I have to drive it to the trails. But omg, those trails. I'm so glad I ran across this video.
I feel once pretty badly and besides other injuries my knee needed stitches. Having a bigger open injury on the knee, which is always moving, is not fun! Fellows, i can only recommend to you, get some kneepads and invest some money in your health. I got myself some very comfortable knee pads and feel way safer on the trail now.
That's awesome that you came to Hawaii and got to ride! Our MTB community is small one each island but we do have a bunch of really good riders! Maui is another place to ride, from my understanding with my mainland friends who rode it, they all say its world-class trail. Its called the Pineapple Express ;) Oahu has some killer riding as well. Big Island is where I'm located, Biggest island with the smallest amount of trails since a lot of them is all privately owned. If you're into Diamond Back Bikes, you should know of Mike Hopkins. He is a rider for them.. They were here a year ago and filmed Dream Ride 2 here. We were lucky enough to hook up with them and show them the local secrets here ;) Thanks for the awesome video to show that MTB is alive everywhere!! Aloha Darin
I also had the pleasure of riding with Minh Hai on last years trip to Kauai. I jumped into a Sunday ride with some locals and it was the best ride I’ve ever been on to date. I’ll live in Hawaii soon 🤙🏽
Very cool. I moved to Kauai when I was 18, and then again when I was 20. Best experience of my life. Best place I've ever lived. Went on lots of hikes but never mtb. Awesome video
Glad to know you enjoyed the stay! As a resident in oahu I can definately say Kauai is one of the most beautiful islands (I’ve visited kauai, maui, and the big island). Hope to see you in oahu some day!
That was really awesome... Super cool creek gap and that buoy forest was pretty weird. I was just wondering if you have a strava. I would love to see all the rides you! Thanks, love your channel! -Gavin
i love the video seth, everything about that island looks so beautiful. I've been subscribed for over a year now and you're my main inspiration to get out and ride mountain bikes lol i mean as a kid ive always had fun riding wheelies and BS-ing but now im learning how much mountain biking how grown. I cant afford to buy a quality bike yet but i did just pick up a mongoose ledge. i know its nothing to brag about but i have a blast on it and i picked it up for only $30 in near perfect condition! Keep up the quality videos brother. When i'm not watching, im waiting for the next one.
When I went to Kauai with my girlfriend and her family, all I could think about is everything I wanted to go down on my bike! Great to see it happen on your channel Seth
Damn I really wish I could ride in different climates and landscapes, Hawaii and Florida look like cool diverse places to bike. Riding Utah is fun in all but I’m so used to the dry weather and mountain forest feeling
So Hawaii has Sunset, Pipe, Waimea, and Kauai, who knew. And you had the all-access pass, fantastic. And surely the Kauai Board of Tourism will be watching your video at their next meeting, probably with a good cup of Kona coffee. And that's a beautiful thing.
Great vid! while vacationing in LA last september. I bought a used santa cruz because i knew i had to try the trails in socal as well as hit the bike park in Snow Summit. Well worth the few thousand dollars i spent. Just like you said, you are paying for the memories!
I need to correct for something really important in the video. When I looked at the creek gap I said the landing seemed janky, but when I rode it the landing was super smooth. The reason I say this is that someone hauled a shovel out there and toiled in the sun on that landing. The final word? The whole gap was rad as hell and sent smooth as butter.
Seth after gathering all that footage , how long did it take you to piece all the layers together in that video ?
Seth's Bike Hacks you should come to Australia soon and ride some trails in Victoria
this damn video probably took forever.
Seth's Bike Hacks hey Seth can you please do another video on all your bikes we want to know what’s in your currant squad keep up the great work
Seth's Bike Hacks how do I tell if my hydraulic brakes need to be bled?
Thanks to Minh Hai for showing us around! Kauai was amazing, but I'm home now and it's time to start working on the dungeon. Once the weather clears up, on to Berm Creek! In other news, official jerseys are now available for preorder. Check the description for links!
Excited to see the berm creek videos!!!!
Zeplin .? Oh hi I'm from the Philippines
Alexander Howitt me too the trail that seth made
Seth's Bike Hacks Will you be at the santos fat tire festival in Ocala Florida in March
Hi Seth can you film a bike to all of your bikes?
"The nursery of stupid ideas is where the greatest memories mature" needs to be written on one of your bikes
Mabye on the murder machine
Glad those roosters got a shout out, little bastards are everywhere!
BKXC lol
BKXC and seth and alex next winter do a group on this HW Isle sure you guys would get a sell out in 5mins especially in January
are they on the trails too lol
I live on Kauai. Chickens are everywhere.
Brian dont forget about cats too
But did you see a double rainbow!?
Seth would try to jump between the rainbows instead of crying. I can't tell if it would be a good or a bad thing.
double rainbows are rollable
Seth's Bike Hacks and huckable ;))
Skills With Phil shut up no
I once saw a triple one, no kidding.
Holy crap, this is so perfect. Incredible vistas, beautiful trail, a local who knows where to find this amazing stuff and the weather to make it all work.
This might well be my all time favourite video of yours, just stunning.
That buoy trail must have taken so long to put together, dirt looks insane too!

Hey thank you for converting to Celsius ... the question was already forming in my mind when you helpfully let the rest of the world know what the temperature was. :D
lol, what, there's a world outside of America? ;) J/K
Ian Taylor At least if you live in the United States you learn them both. I don’t give a shit if they give it is C or F because I know them both.
Just when I thought you couldn't up your video game more, you send it. One of your best works.
DirtWireTV last vid was better thsn this one
Liking or not liking a video is totally subjective. That said, scientifically speaking, you are 100% incorrect.
Agreed! Shveeet video!
Agreed
DirtWireTV I totally agree this was such a great video
Seth, as a rider and as a person, i respect the hell out of the fact you don't rat out trails to others.
Ethan ridesbikes so u thank him for not letting the same community enjoy trails meant for that community
amazing place for riding, great video my friend
I love kauai. i did a lot of archaeology work out there and LOVED having my bike with me.
"The nursery of stupid ideas is where the greatest memories mature" - So True
Unironically that is such a deep quote lol
“I can’t tell if there’s a person here.”
Crackhead infront of him: (0_0)
Lol
Anyone else see that creek gap and NOT expect Seth to hit that thing!?!?! But he SMEASHED it!!!!
Yeah, that fucker's pretty crazy. I wonder how many feet that was?
I like your last name!
It's a 22 ft. gap.
Denver DH'er
He rode BMX so that would kinda explain it.
what im trying to figure out, is why much of the footage seems to be shot from chest height, but in the crash I only see a helmet cam.
I watch a ton of your vids. That was one of the best. Life is about experiencing things, and that experience was priceless for sure.
That buoy forest was the coolest thing I've ever seen
right
*scariest
Dude your videos are amazing!! And they keep getting better!!
Can't agree more, anyone criticising him for spending $1000 for a day of amazing memories and new friends, think about how much you spend on your plastic beach getaways which leave you with nothing more than temporary tan lines and forgettable hours in expensive beds. Value is entirely subjective and I don't there's any better way to spend your money than on memorable experiences.
Irving Washington idk I wouldn’t spend 1000 a day for that
I live in New Zealand they have beautiful beaches but I must say they aren’t as good as these.
Also, think about the fact that he probably made 1000 dollars for this vid alone so...
My favorite video of yours yet. I just bought another specialized rock hopper pro and have gotten back into riding here recently.Your videos help me out a lot!
Dude!!! That gap looked freaking HUGE!!!!!!! Now I know where I need to convince the Mrs. to go on vacation!
The go pro effect didn’t come into play here, shit looked HUGE. Looked like a road _and a half_ gap, but sketchier
Budget friendly biking in
I'm from Hawaii and you're right. Constant rainbows and random chickens everywhere. But that dirt man, you don't understand. It stains everything.
Seth! Wow, that jump was crazy! Thank you for taking us along.
I lived on Maui for years, that's where I started mountain biking. As you observed, Hawaii is pretty amazing. On Maui at the time, there were 2 trails. 2. On the entire island.

Hey man, how's it going on the riding?
@@singletona082 Slower than I like. I have not been on my bike recently. I have gotten lazy and busy.
Seth, your commentary has gotten to be top notch. Keep up the good work and let me ride with you in Ashville sometime.
Wow! 10/10! One of my favorite videos so yet! So much environment: trees, dirt, landscape and I felt a smidgen of the culture there. It's just so nice and you sure did finish it off strong!
So awesome you came to Kauai. I live on Oahu, but got relatives over there. So solid you came down brah. Hope you had shave ice too. Alohas!
Hello's ???
I come back and watch this video all the time because the discovery and exploration that comes with mountain biking is what makes me love it so much. Always quality content Seth!
Great video Seth! the music is perfectly chosen to!
and i believe it was great money spend ;) memories like that are priceless!
This one of those channels that I watch and just enjoy your passion for your hobby. I'm not a biker myself but I can see the joy biking brings you
Seth I dig the cartoon text bubbles... a nice touch! Smeash!
What does smeash mean? I’m pretty new hear
Haha its just how he says smash
I love your videos. I don't really have mountain bike trails near my house (we have a massive park full of trails down the street, but it's full of pedestrians) you make me want to go somewhere crazy and ride there. thank you. I'm still in high school, but biking is one of my favorite things.
Seth i was definitely not expected these kinds of trail in Hawaii....REALLY cool man, amazing landscape.....thanks for sharing dude!
dude wasn't this vid amazing!
12 years ago I found myself on Kauai and rented a mountain bike for the 1st time and had an absolutely amazing day. Loved this video.
In my Navy day's I've been over there. Pictures don't do it justice, it's unbelievably beautiful there.
I love your videos. I follow a couple of other mountain biking youtubers but there's just something about yours that makes me love it more than any other channel. I can't put my finger on what it is but keep doing what you're doing!
Ok I don't say it to often but I'm jealous Seth. That trip looked insanely awesome
Honestly can't stop rewatching. This might be my favorite video, Seth.
way cool. Seth, you know why I like your vids..... the music that you insert. Your Whistler elevator music riding the lifts.... today's Hawaiian drums. Your video's remind me of the Warren Miller Ski flicks that was/still is part of the skiing culture. Nicely done.

Yeah, not the usual jazzy EDM stuff that everyone else on RUclips uses

2:15 “I’m willing to bet they taste like chicken” That made me laugh for 3 minutes
Only Seth could Smeash harder than an airline baggage employee! 👨 💼 ✈
Yeah lol 😂
Dude you have progressed alot!!! I really didn't think you would just go at that creek gap the way you did. Props bro. Keep shreddin
I was in Kauai winter break... Had no idea about these trails!
Dude great footage and I am envious my friend! Memories you'll never forget!! Also really glad they didn't completely lose your bike man
SETH YOU MAKE ME LOOK UP TO THINGS! I hope me and you can ride one day. I’m 13 and you got me to ride more. But I don’t have a great bike but I’ll make due. My dads Gary fisher is the reason it all started and you. Hope we can meet eachother one day

I always seem to come back to this video . This remains the best berm peak video to date.

Good memories are worth the money. Some might say they are priceless.

Learned that too late lol
Still not gonna wear them
I feel once pretty badly and besides other injuries my knee needed stitches. Having a bigger open injury on the knee, which is always moving, is not fun!

I love how your channel transformd, that content is so pleasant to watch. Keep it coming. Best of luck.
Hey Seth and everyone who just tapped the video so quickly 😂!
Me
Will Foster i see he posted a video i already clicked it
I also had the pleasure of riding with Minh Hai on last years trip to Kauai. I jumped into a Sunday ride with some locals and it was the best ride I’ve ever been on to date.
I’ll live in Hawaii soon 🤙🏽
I was there June of 2017! Rented my bike from that shop and drove on those roads!
Very cool. I moved to Kauai when I was 18, and then again when I was 20. Best experience of my life. Best place I've ever lived. Went on lots of hikes but never mtb. Awesome video
MTB for life
Bmx is better
Nothing is better, You choose what you want to ride. Only idiots will hate one and like the other
That creek gap took some balls! Sometimes you just need to send it and trust you got what it takes to land it. Looks so fun.
That baggage handler undoubtedly said 'SMEASH' when he loaded your bike up.
+Nick Hepler If he didn’t say it, he at least thought it
Your videos are just amazing! Thanks man! Always looking forward watching your stuff!
Some of your best work. 👍
This was amazing! From one Seth to another, thanks for the scenery!
This place is so beautiful holy crap
Glad to know you enjoyed the stay! As a resident in oahu I can definately say Kauai is one of the most beautiful islands (I’ve visited kauai, maui, and the big island). Hope to see you in oahu some day!

Totally heart warming! Keep 'em coming!
I’ve lived her for my whole life and still don’t nosome of those trails
Totally jealous! We went there this last year and didn't even think of riding while I was there. Thanks for the awesome video!
He thinks 7 degrees is cold
Here in Scotland we call that summer!
i love the video seth, everything about that island looks so beautiful.

Jeff Lenosky make the trip Boss!!
Is that an invite?
No sorry, I don’t live there or anything, just would love to see the video of you riding there! I dream of getting the chance to go there myself:)
Bummer 😉
When I went to Kauai with my girlfriend and her family, all I could think about is everything I wanted to go down on my bike! Great to see it happen on your channel Seth
That dirt was insane
Seth i think its worth it, great memories. Thanks for bringing as with you.
Damn I really wish I could ride in different climates and landscapes, Hawaii and Florida look like cool diverse places to bike. Riding Utah is fun in all but I’m so used to the dry weather and mountain forest feeling
Enjoy it. I live in Houston.
Smeeeesh! One of the best episodes of the Seth. Cheers!
This is one of my fave vids that you made Seth...you inspire me to make a vlog
awesome vid
Awesome Seth you just took me on holiday for 10minutes and I loved it thankyou great video🤙
I guess... Mahalo?
excellent choice of music for that trail, such a rain forest / jungle stuff, beautiful...
300 dollars there and back, they throw the case (and several thousand dollars of bike) around and then lose it. Where do I sign up?
Download the FREE American airlines app, for baggage throwing and more!
I think you got off easy -- thankfully your bike did show up :-)
Bro i think it okay because its just like your crashing your bike multiple times..
So Hawaii has Sunset, Pipe, Waimea, and Kauai, who knew. And you had the all-access pass, fantastic. And surely the Kauai Board of Tourism will be watching your video at their next meeting, probably with a good cup of Kona coffee. And that's a beautiful thing.
Did you enjoy the kalua pig? Hawaiian food is ONO!
yes! I'm craving it!
You by far make the best videos! Looking forward to the next!
7:41 take it out of context
I love this segment, man. Hawaii trails are now on my official bucket list. Thanks for the insight, Seth!! 👍👍
A paradise within a paradise.
Sounds like a paradise
That trail looks awesome. I love Kauai! Those chickens are the island bird. They rule the island, and they are everywhere - even the furthest reaches.
Yass you hit the path trails and the tunnel one of the cooled places you had went a day after not knowing you came out to our island.
Awesome trip Seth! That buoy forest was something else! Thanks for sharing.
Great vid! while vacationing in LA last september. I bought a used santa cruz because i knew i had to try the trails in socal as well as hit the bike park in Snow Summit. Well worth the few thousand dollars i spent. Just like you said, you are paying for the memories!
