The Trek guys seemed uncomfortable and most definitely rude. Trek is one of the best bikes on the market designed for cyclists. There aren't many cyclists outputting the torque Elite Crossfit athletes can. However, those plastic pedals are junk and Trek should outfit the bike accessories to the athletes that are using them.
Hiller, this is the best Crossfit Games content yet! The official age group livestream is useless and noone else has put out anything useful apart from you! Keep up the good work! They definitely need to hire you after this!
@@terminatorxtreme Trek bikes break more than any other bike I see. I ride pretty crazy trails and events almost every weekend and seeing Treks break in the first 15 minutes of a rid makes me never want to use one.
Andrew, love what you are doing.. can we try to hold the camera a little more steady, or a gimble? The motion sickness is real. Keep the questions going.
He was a turd… but I do agree the bikes are breaking bc some of the athletes are inexperienced on optimal gear usage and timing. Seriously, stopping f***ng changing gears while peddling with force. That grind between the chain and gears was killing me
Crossfit is great - train all year long doing monster workouts then you get to the Games and have to practice riding a fkn mountain bike. Keep it up Hiller
Get to the chopper haha...way to throw that in...great job, thank you for bringing us this and thank you to Crossfit for allowing this coverage. There is so much that goes into just even a simple bike event. Very interesting to see.
Hey Chuck 👋 so I’m guessing Hiller will be shadowing Boz and Sevan will be doing the same with TDC. Sevan is right this behind the scenes is going to be awesome
The bike breaking thing: obviously CF isn’t going to say anything negative about their sponsor. Eubanks also does have a good point: a lot of these athletes are not used to “clipping in” where your foot is literally attached to the pedal. These CF people have some powerful ass legs and I believe they could rip a pedal off.
Well, I agree about not saying anything negative about the sponsors, totally understandable! But saying that bikes are not ready for that amount of power, means that they used low range components, probably, otherwise they should withstand it, cyclists are pretty powerfull too (downhill, indoor on top, powerwise), but if you are using components that come with commuting or budget ranges, probably that doesn't endure their power... Anyway, i think they learned the lesson, as I don't recall any more trouble with bikes after the mentioned year...
Lol at Eubanks saying bike break because the athletes are cranking too hard. It’s a competition are the supposed to slow down? Imagine the happening on an echo bike sprint.
You can hear the age group and adaptive in the background. Your coverage of those events was as good as CrossFits…..same camera distance from the event.
There were a couple of times Hiller was walking up to people and got way closer than I thought he would, at one point I was expecting the camera to touch Boz's face🤣 Keep up the good work! Push the limits but don't get kicked out! ha ha
I don’t care what that guy says, no bike pedal should snap from any exertion from peddling! Think about bmx riders who land on these pedals coming off high jumps! If the bike is junk then just say it’s junk!
Eubanks makes it so difficult to root for CrossFit. Are you still a CrossFiter if you strongly dislike a good hand full of the people running the games?
Eubanks wearing a Batman Scoring patch on his shirt? Is that a nod to HillerFit, or am I completely missing some context here? He didn't seem thrilled to talk to you.
Hiller we are all here to see if Craig Richie will speak to you and iff he asked you to drop his tag line from you videos! (Or has he already?!) Please make a video chatting with him happen it will break your channel 😂
Do they have back up bikes or just mechanical support? A broken chain (and I'd put money a broken chain happens based off how loud those gear changes were) will be a race ender if no back up bikes are available.
Hmm a little bit misleading that “the bikes broke because of the power of these athletes”- the breakages were all user error- hamfisted on power gear shifts, and grounded pedals.
I’m sure you’ve probably realized it, and I’m not a photographer, but I think you need to fix something with the stabilization so images stay centered in the screen instead of bouncing around.
Does the guy from Scoring think that pro cyclists put less power through the pedals than CrossFit athletes? Velners chain was probably user error and putting power through at the wrong time but athletes dont break pedals, that was a mechanical issue
I feel like this is the one event I could manage with all the mountain biking I do in Tahoe - LOL! Why is that Dave dude always so stand offish ? Did you kick his dog or something?? Loving your coverage Hiller - hope I run into you while I am here. I did see your amazing fiancé - she is STRONG, GORGEOUS, and FUN to chat with!! Peace OUT!
Hiller, while you're in Madison maybe you can ask Crossfit HQ about their lack of diversity for people who work at Crossfit HQ and athletes who are POC ? They may as well rename it as the "Upper Middle Class ( Usually Very Religious ) White People Games Except for Chandler Smith"
This is great stuff. Every time bikes are in the Games, I'm surprised how bad most athletes are on them, they look like small kids going for the first time.😅
Great coverage, Hiller! The guy at the beginning talking about the bikes “not breaking” was a douche.
Super Douche! Ugh who is this guy?!?
Imagine what TREK is discussing with CFHQ after the games... "Next year no douches talking shit about our bikes..."
The Trek guys seemed uncomfortable and most definitely rude.

Wow Hiller this is unreal. I can’t believe you are giving us behind the scenes already. This is all the good stuff we wanna see. Thank you
Eubanks doing himself 0 favors...
God he’s a flog isn’t he… but he knows who Hiller is hahaha
Proper tosser
Yep he definitely came across like a douche
Won't even look him in the eye for way to long. Very beta

20+ years of riding BMX and Mtn biking, bikes break. The bike having a defect is more likely than someone breaking it during a ride
With that many bikes there you would think there will be a few bikes with defects
Exactly, it's rubbish to say "bikes don't break"
yeah, breaking a 'good' brand new pedal is normal cause they put to much pressure ? they are strong but not that strong lol ... bikes dont break lol
@@terminatorxtreme Trek bikes break more than any other bike I see. I ride pretty crazy trails and events almost every weekend and seeing Treks break in the first 15 minutes of a rid makes me never want to use one.

The TDC bro hug made my heart happy.
Best content of the Games today
Who is my competition
@@hillerfit It doesn’t matter. It reminded me of the content we used to get back in the day.
Thank you, Hiller. You're killing it.
lol Eubanks looked ecstatic to see you
I thought so too!
He was a turd… but I do agree the bikes are breaking bc some of the athletes are inexperienced on optimal gear usage and timing. Seriously, stopping f***ng changing gears while peddling with force. That grind between the chain and gears was killing me
@@jsizzle911you can pedal very hard and change gears. Modern derailleurs are built for it. And it's pedaling.
Crossfit is great - train all year long doing monster workouts then you get to the Games and have to practice riding a fkn mountain bike. Keep it up Hiller
Get to the chopper haha...way to throw that in...great job, thank you for bringing us this and thank you to Crossfit for allowing this coverage. There is so much that goes into just even a simple bike event. Very interesting to see.
It makes me so happy to see Dave in the back over seeing things! Daddy's back home!
Uldis is the man 18:17 - the work has been done good luck this year 💪
Hey Chuck 👋 so I’m guessing Hiller will be shadowing Boz and Sevan will be doing the same with TDC.
Sevan is right this behind the scenes is going to be awesome
none of these athletes are putting down the watts of professional cyclist. they are not breaking the bikes due to "too much power"
Eubanks with the Batman logo 🤯
Dude, Uldis seems like such a genuinely good guy!!
1:25 - either He's not the talking type or he don't want to talk with you 😂
5:02 - It's Hiller Fiiiiiiiiiiiiiit 🤣👌🏾
Already learned something from a new athlete. Nice coverage so far. There will be a few athletes picking gravel out their bodies in day 1.

Thank you for the awesome behind the scenes clips! This is the stuff I love to see!
Nice Vid! Uldis seems like such a nice dude. I hope he does well!!
Love the acknowledgment from Castro.
Killing it already!!
Lol athletes breaking the bikes
..
That security dude was so salty jeez
@@derickvorster4873I thought he looked like security too but his shirt said “scoring”
I wish I would’ve found Hiller’s channel sooner! Got to get caught up on the channel so I have a lot of watching to do!
Good work! These videos are awesome! All those sevan games interviews I feel like I like so many more games athletes!
Lol at Eubanks saying bike break because the athletes are cranking too hard. It’s a competition are the supposed to slow down? Imagine the happening on an echo bike sprint.
If they don't know how to use the equipment, that's on the athlete.
Dave Eubanks didnt seem too thrilled with Hiller! Castro invited him be fine with it
Those wood hurdle areas are going to get really gnarly: crashes, bikes hitting people, yeahhhhh.
This is good shit Hiller, keep it up, definitely gets the excitement for the games high
great insights.....keep up the great coverage
You can hear the age group and adaptive in the background. Your coverage of those events was as good as CrossFits…..same camera distance from the event.
Love seeing Dave Castro back!
I also can't wait to see all the behind the scenes stuff that you and Sevan get.
Great content! You, Taylor and some of the guys make it still enjoyable to watch.
Killer content Hiller!
There were a couple of times Hiller was walking up to people and got way closer than I thought he would, at one point I was expecting the camera to touch Boz's face🤣
Keep up the good work! Push the limits but don't get kicked out! ha ha
Hiller already winning , giving the people what they want !
It is an indictment on everyone at CrossFit that Dave Eubanks is still an employee.
This is great! Thanks Hiller!
Eubanks 😂 I can feel the absolute resentment from putting Oliver in the Open😂
Thank you so much! Your BHS is always so good!!
I don’t care what that guy says, no bike pedal should snap from any exertion from peddling! Think about bmx riders who land on these pedals coming off high jumps! If the bike is junk then just say it’s junk!
Most likely the pedals break from impact (another bike, fencing, etc) or from hitting the pedal on the ground if it's low on an inside turn.
oh man Eubanks not excited to meet the Green Lantern.
Thank you Hiller
Amazing BTS Hiller. Keep it going.
Dave Eubanks wanted to punch you square in the face. 😂😂
Eubanks makes it so difficult to root for CrossFit.
Are you still a CrossFiter if you strongly dislike a good hand full of the people running the games?
Anyone from the Hiller-verse able to get us some actual coverage of the masters? The camera angle provided by CrossFit gives us nothing.
Amazing work Hiller!
Awesome 👏🏼 Hiller!!!!
Awesome stuff man, love to see this part
Hiller, you're elite for this content!!
Eubanks wearing a Batman Scoring patch on his shirt? Is that a nod to HillerFit, or am I completely missing some context here? He didn't seem thrilled to talk to you.
Awesome footage Hiller, so cool!!!!
Love behind the scenes , thank you!
MORE!! Lol great stuff man keep up the good work.
Coach Chuck - superstar.
Great footage! Really enjoyed your video, thank you
Hiller ❤ I LIKE IT!! Great content all day., thanks so much!!!
Updneiks is a good dude!
Loving it. Great stuff. A gimbal would be really helpful!
Shouldn't they have transponders for counting laps? They have them for motorcycle racing.
Gives your laps plus time for each lap and finish time.
Whos the guy who said its the athletes fault for "breaking" the pedal on a bike
Eubanks..not sure what he is relative to
Hiller Great coverage! You’re a bit shaky during the bike footage- keep it straight and level man ur doing great!
Hiller we are all here to see if Craig Richie will speak to you and iff he asked you to drop his tag line from you videos! (Or has he already?!)
Please make a video chatting with him happen it will break your channel 😂
Good stuff Hiller!
Eubanks couldn’t be less interested
Inconsistent tire pressures would make a huge difference
Do they have back up bikes or just mechanical support? A broken chain (and I'd put money a broken chain happens based off how loud those gear changes were) will be a race ender if no back up bikes are available.
Great job Andrew!!!!
Great content! Keep it coming!
Eubanks to Tour De France athletes "dont crank so hard"...... hahahahaha.
he is an idiot. tour de frnace sprinters are easily cranking more than any of these crossfit athelets.
Thanks Hiller!
good stuff hiller
Great job! Hustling for us.
Uldis is awesome
I love how uncomfortable all the judges are when Hilller asks questions.
Hmm a little bit misleading that “the bikes broke because of the power of these athletes”- the breakages were all user error- hamfisted on power gear shifts, and grounded pedals.
That start = carnage can't wait
Felt cool to watch this unlisted material
I’m sure you’ve probably realized it, and I’m not a photographer, but I think you need to fix something with the stabilization so images stay centered in the screen instead of bouncing around.
Did they get Colten a riser to get over the barricade?
These videos are awesome
Nice to see a slightly better bike still a low end model. Cf is brutal you would think this is year one
Does the guy from Scoring think that pro cyclists put less power through the pedals than CrossFit athletes? Velners chain was probably user error and putting power through at the wrong time but athletes dont break pedals, that was a mechanical issue
Amazing BTS footage. Thanks Hiller
When they yelled: ‚get off the bike!‘ I just expected Hopper to yell back: ‚or what?!‘
This is so awesome!!
I feel like this is the one event I could manage with all the mountain biking I do in Tahoe - LOL! Why is that Dave dude always so stand offish ? Did you kick his dog or something?? Loving your coverage Hiller - hope I run into you while I am here. I did see your amazing fiancé - she is STRONG, GORGEOUS, and FUN to chat with!! Peace OUT!
Thank God.

How r CrossFit not making videos like this to explain the start and that its going to be a mass start
Chuck Carswell is the man!
This is great stuff. Every time bikes are in the Games, I'm surprised how bad most athletes are on them, they look like small kids going for the first time.😅
If after multiple years of bikes at the games we still have people not able to shift gears correctly - I'm just not sorry - what are you doing?!
Great job dude 👏
this is great
Is this same footage going into de BTS?
Perhaps some. This is all stuff before the games
Uldeez nuts :P .... sorry, couldn't help myself mate :D
I can’t see too good did I see Mitch Trubisky over there at 00:01?
