Building a steep skinny bridge on a fallen elm tree
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 24 авг 2024
- A string of tornados and storms passed through the Southeastern US, and Berm Peak took a bit of a beating! This weekend, Alexander and I turn a downed Elm into a really fun skinny mountain bike bridge named Elm'r Fudd. This was a challenging feature to build, but it was even more challenging to ride.

Fyi, that maul was sent to me by a subscriber, and is made of some kind of hardwood. I don’t use the sledgehammer anymore because it just splits the wood before it makes it into the ground.
One time, I was building an Estonian Bunkie kit and they gave us like 5 of those and called them Shloghalzers or something. My dad and I confuse people when we call them that to this day haha
Seth's Bike Hacks loved the video and the new skinny
Hey Seth you if you want to use the sledgehammer, crown the top of the stakes and it won’t split if you hit the middle of the stake well enough.
1:37 your camera man was talking about a pole saw
Does anyone miss old seths videos with rewives and shit i mean i love new vids but it would be nice to have some of that og stuff
We need a tour soon, my memory can't keep up with all of these trails and features!
Rewatch it
We definitely do
I assume we will get one when the entire thing is complete
True
Same aha
i cant even imagine having such a cool backyard ahaha
Evarq I have a channel if you want to see it if not that’s fine to Thanks👍👍
imagine having a back yard
Yea same
It's more like an around yard

For sure😂
same here

Alexander Kellerman stop steeling comments this has been on like every video
"The infamous knob deep" I see what you did there.
I just want to say that Seth and berm peak vids have got me through a lot.. Been dealing with anxiety lately. I was robbed and have been anxious since. Hoping to get back on the trail after I gather some $.. Thank you Seth for these well, and entertaining vids!
Is it bad that Seth's trails are better then most of my local trails.
yes
Nathan Bruce no his trails are amazing
It is. So go there and spice up those trails.
My trails don't even have trail signs so only the locals know where the trails are
Yeah probably
Okay, you’ve got more features than my local bike park at this point
He did after he built the first trail for me
@@travismann5099 RIP
i wish my mountain would take notes...
😂
I don’t even have a local trail
this is literally the best channel on RUclips. You and Singletrack have just become the number one spot for me :)
Seth: it still wobbles
Also Seth: *stands on top of wobbly part with chainsaw*
Haha
Alex : what's that thing on a stick that you can saw things
Seth; pulls out a chainsaw
Mountain Biking and Beyond he meant a Weedwhacker with the chainsaw attachment
ALL AROUND MTB No, i don’t think so. I have one of what he’s referring to, i just don’t know the name.
Its called a pole saw/pruner
I have a channel I post every Thursday if you want to check it out.👍👍
@@Diamond_79 This. It's usually a serrated, curved blade on the end, often with joints and a cord designed so you can change the angle. We used to have one of those. (Actually, might still have it, but I digress.)
Now we have an electric chainsaw on a pole.
I cannot explain the joy of building something from complete scratch, seeing it develop to completion, and then getting to ride it!! Such a rad week out on Berm Peak, can't wait to do it again! 🤟
It does look pretty cool there 👍
Yall are the dream team!
The Singletrack Sampler ok boomer
Hey Alex, what percentage is the quarantine a blessing vs an inconvenience? I can't imagine too many cooler places to be on lockdown than Berm Peak.
I love your videos man... keep up the great work!
Would love to see a mini-map of the trails tracking as you're taking us through when you build a new feature. Super easy to get lost from behind a computer screen. Awesome video, so cool to see the back yard progress!
bennett records this would be perfect during the “from the top” runs!
YES PLEASE
Yeah 100% i went through 10 vids just to realise were he was
I have a channel if you want to see it if not that’s fine to thanks 👍👍
Seth, I would highly recommend a pole saw for those difficult to reach limbs.

Boils don’t be so immature but the joke was quite funny

Ryobi.makes one! Its my favorite tool
Chase Flanagan i agree but like how else do you grow and get notice?!?!
Seth, I would "highly* recommend a sledgehammer to get those stakes in the ground .
Henry Blasi it is definitely easier but it can split the stake. The maul rarely does and isn’t much lighter than my 6 pound sledge.

Edit: we built a step up today
Awesome dude!
That is great! My crew all grew up and are having babies...... if i want to build a trail in my backyard I will be doing on my own...... *frown
i can't wait to watch a compilation of seth riding all the trails once their done! its so sick to see everything come together and im hyped for the finished product!

How does this guy only have 1.89 mil he deserves
10 mil

So true
I think its cause MTB is a pretty niche subject.
Nah i'm glad he has 1 mil because if he gets 10 mil he'll have so much viewers that he won't be able to respond to comments
Gained .2 mill
1:14 had a feeling that the trail was named after mobb deep
It was!😁

"Stay in your garden if u want fresh air"
Seth's garden:
Seth you NEED to make a long handled sledge for yourself. It'll drive those stakes way quicker. (Keep the head made of wood to not destroy your stakes in the process).
What a nice treat on this Friday morning! Have a great weekend Seth.
The answer to the question “what’s that thing called where it’s like a stick with a saw on the end?” Is a pole saw. It’s called a pole saw. And they’re great. Just let me suggest you get a gas powered one. STIHL makes one
Milwaukee has a battery powered Outdoor Tool Line. One Tool but 5 different interchangeable Attachments. One of them is a Pole SAW. Combined with their 12 ah High Output battery=insane power
My kobalt battery powered pole saw is fantastic. Undercutting is important when cutting overhead limbs. Plan and clear an escape route, gravity happens quickly and 3” limb will put a hurting on a skull.
climbing rope and handsaw
I post a new. Video every Thursday on my channel if you want to check it out.👍
Hey Seth! I’m one of your truly OG subs and I just want to let you know, please stay safe. I want you creating this incredible content as long as you can and seeing you fall off that tree with the saw made my heart drop. 😂😭
Good gosh, so true!
Right as I saw the end of the tree all I was saying was," He's building ANOTHER drama drop!!!!" then I was dissapointed
I think Mr. Seth missed a huge opportunity here, he could have called the trail Elm Street, like the Nightmare On Elm Street movie, just saying.
Omg yes that would’ve been funny

You gotta wear a mask when chips are flying like that, homie. Stay safe.

@@creycornelius8427 Wood dust is considered carcinogenic to humans (Group 1) according to the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC). IARC states that wood dust causes cancer of the nasal cavity (nose area) and paranasal sinuses (spaces in and around the nasal cavity) and of the nasopharynx (upper part of the throat, behind the nose). Inhalation of wood dust is also linked to the development of early onset COPD
Seth is so lucky to have a whole mini bike park just at his back lawn
Meme Genarator I have a RUclips channel if you want to check it out
You’re paying for it!
It’s not luck it’s skill
This series has been a big inspiration. I've always wanted to build a small trail behind my house but now I've actually began working on it.
Seths house is probably worth millions once the berm peak thing finishes
Edit: If it finishes and if he moves house again but next time he should by like a pine plantation 😂
Probably already is 🤣🤣
I don’t think it’s ever going to be finished 😂😂
Seth narrates so well he could be talking about a hotdog and a would still enjoy it. He has inspired me to make my own videos
umm maybe you are wrong, its billions and no one said anything about finishing

You'd never make the corner though

Who wants more features like this in UK bikeparks?
Me
So I binge watched all of the Berm Peak episodes last night, my first ever RUclips binge. All I can say is.... SO. FREAKING. COOL!!!! You’re living a dream 🤘
Tree: Falls during storm downhill
Seth: It must be fate!
Even though it clearly didn’t fall down in a storm, look at the base of it at 1:30
1:25*
He should add way more wood features on woodpecker as there’s basically only the mainframe, like other trails have more wood than woodpecker
I have been thinking the same thing there is a ton of possibilities there
Make a bird? A high centrepiece and two wings that stlops off to a land of another bird
Seth, you’re really helping me trough the lockdown
Thanks from Belgium🔥
Nice, zuid Nederland!
A great feature. Loved watching you build it.
Hitting the stakes in place sped-up might just be the most satisfying thing I've ever seen.
Who else would love to shred these trails?!
Great vid, loving to content to keep us entertained during quarantine!
Not so long ago there was nothing, now Berm Peak is like a legit bike park with tons of features, amazing.
That feature looks fun as hell. Berm Peak is really coming along nicely. Keep up the good work.
Your gonna be a real ass trail builder soon. You went from “it will be fine” to full on engineering
no kidding, I gotta catch up haha
10:09 sounds like a mourning dove
Been working on midterms all week and been super stressed and ur vids help reduce the stress! keep up the good work Seth!
After the corona is gone I wish Seth would invite more mtb youtubers to come ride Berm Peak
Bring back sick if table in moonshangle because of its steepness
You know you're early when there's 8 views and 16 comments
Seth, you should make a homemade rope tow. You could attach the front wheel of the bicycle to it, and the back wheel could be on the ground. You wouldn’t be able to ride on the bike but you could just walk. It’s pretty simple and there’s tons of RUclips videos showing how.
THis was my first Seth vid. Since then I've watched every. single. video.... many times.
Me last Friday:😔
Me this Friday:😁
5:03 reminded me when Seth popped Alex’s shoulder back in lol
Smoked from my ride today, but this makes me so excited for my ride in the morning! I've been sucked into Seth's rabbit hole of videos!!!!

as a childish British man, and with knob meaning something quite different over here, I cannot stop giggling at the name knob deep 🤣🤣
There's no denying Seth is hard worker, but man does he do things dangerously.
If you think what he does is dangerous your vagina is showing sir
Even tho I saw on seth’s insta story that he wasn’t uploading last week I still didn’t believe it until it happened. 😢
DoTube Bros why didn’t he uploaf
I guess he didn’t upload because of the storm and rains.
I'm exhausted just watching this video. Seth, you must be one of the hardest working youtubers on the planet.
I haven't really watched since your video about leaving your old house, but holy cow, your new setup is insane compared to your old one. You're living in paradise man
Seth have you ever had a moment where you were like im gonna die and after you survived what did you think?
When he said "and no there won't be a jump at the end" I was waiting for him to say there would be a drop. I'm not the only one right?

Watched this back to back with Alex’s video. Cool to see it from two perspectives and how you story tell.

Been a huge fan forever, and just bought some new and sick merch, anyone else love the Berm Creek hoodies or is is just me?
When you connect Elmer Fudd to Knob Deep you should put a berm connecting to two trails. After that when you are coming down Knob deep you should build a dirt jump off of the backside of the berm like a little kicker. I wish I could show you a picture of what I mean.
If I was riding at Seth’s place I would get lost
