because of the nature of the jump sick oh i can barely slow down whoa welcome back to the channel guys for today's video i'm taking you to harper mountain here in cambridge bc we left squamish a couple of days ago to escape the bad weather we had beautiful drive and we made our way yesterday to the bike ranch i actually posted a video on my raw channel it was really good time on my donald bike i put some flat pedals on for the first time in a while and now it's time to ride the trail bike i took my propane thai we're going to make it to the top of the mountain all those trades are on trail forks we've chosen a local favorite let's go and ride today i'm gonna be riding with the french liner you've seen him on some of my videos before we made it to the top of upper mountain there's actually a little ski resort in this direction and it's familiar it looks super cool and this is the zone on trail fox so we're gonna start with unicorn dh then we're gonna make our way to pimpernut upper back onto unicorn dh and we'll finish by another black trailer around here to get back to the car it's going to be super sweet let's go unicorn gh single black diamond trail it's central fork check it out so well huh yeah it's really fun really fast some good corners dirt is pretty good but the rocks on top they look very slippery drop sign steep section ahead let's go check it out my feet got caught on a rock oh here we go okay that's that's pretty yeah from a head there yeah nice little drop to start the trail okay actually my first time i ride hyper mountain and i love riding trails blind yeah is that like a hip that's a big one sec with that gap out of the corner it's tricky i had to really pull it was still a little yeah you have to you have to carry so much speed coming into it nice little surprise okay let's try it again and i'm gonna eat that uh that hip jump okay okay first attempt on the hip nice it's actually really smooth yeah looks good man i was pretty nervous because i don't often do like hips like this especially this side it's pretty blind but if you clean the drum before you carry good speed you can really set up nicely fight okay great is it the corner go straight and aim straight yeah basically that's a big one that's very like sharp leap huh yeah i know it's like almost a dodger clip i like first attempt it's pretty hard to get the speed for it actually but i felt actually better than i thought i didn't know what to expect or it's so leapy and it's my wrong side it kind of went well despite the little case yeah no it's uh it's actually really well built as i was going back up there i noticed a big drop over there did you see it no should we oh yeah of course all right wow okay so that's actually the big drop someone told me about it and i thought it was this one we just did before okay now that makes sense okay it's actually pretty big nice steep entrance to it you see they put concrete so that way it's not gonna erode and also i assume the rocks are pretty sharp so that would be difficult to have like a nice smooth take off looks like there might be a bit of an impact huh yeah it looks a bit flat well i'll go first to test out okay first attempt on the drop all right so good it's really smooth yeah nice buddy let's do it yeah remember to go really fast onto the tip you have to go real fast okay i follow you so i'm gonna follow alex onto the drop then their hip i'm gonna leave a bit of space especially for the hip because of the nature of the jump yeah but so funny yeah buddy so fun and down to the 50-footer do you imagine that this is a double black sanctioned trade that would be pro-line in a lot of areas this in the whistler bike park would be a pro line for sure i think it's stackier than anything you can find yeah the landing is shorter i mean it looks amazingly well built but still it's like consequences so it looks like there is a jump line and this is the first big jump it's like 50 feet long so it's really big and then you got like a smaller one onto what looks to be another double let's go check it out so we've got the 50 footer and this one it's actually a rod gap and it's still like 40 feet long so following that jump line we've got a triple into a right hand corner and you got to carry a ton of speed open your line and stay a little bit inside and it's a huge step up it's actually really big okay full speed how did i mess up that well you went deep yeah i know i'm just like no choose to ride there with a full face that mat on the trail bike it kind of breaks my speed i'm riding with a a windproof jacket so i didn't actually feel how fast i was going that's fair oh you came in like pedaling into it yeah i know i don't know why i did that yeah what well let's go again to be honest on a legal sanction trail they will not have made a jump that are too clear so i should have take that in consideration and look a bit smaller let's do it okay i'm gonna start from the hip i'm not gonna go as fast just made a step up i could feel my front tire flexing into that corner i'm not riding the edge casing and i'm a bit low pressure to go that fast on the trail drop oh yeah i love riding my bike you shout out the troll builder because making such big jumps that well built is really hard how was that not too bad when nice i said i could do it probably better with another try we got a good fear for it if we have to go really fast break a bit for that second road gap but yeah i love this that was perfect you have to open your corner a lot so you can see the line and then once you set up you can adjust a little bit your uh your line whereas if you come a bit too much inside then you can't really make adjustments to set up for that big step up okay i'm gonna follow alex turn know three jumps and then to the step up that he hasn't done yet so remember you jump the tripod you stay outside you look really far red and then the end of the corner just before the takeoff doesn't have much support so what i do is that i put my outside feet which is the left one in this case so i can really get the tire to grip and also there's so much g forces you don't want to sharp you want to really carry a good speed so that way you can make the step up okay let's try it follow you buddy let's go yeah buddy look at this that was awesome oh it's so fun way better than i ever expected okay let's check out trail fox cause there's quite a few transitions so according to trail forks we are on pimpernut we walked a little bit this way and that actually get us to the access road which must be a little line off the map so we're gonna stick to pamper nut upper on the right if you guys are enjoying that video make sure you subscribe like it and leave us a comment below and also an

thanks so much for that that's right little jump to start nice call now yo whoa seems like it used to be a jump how do we get those so we've got a really nice set of three super cool double it's not often you see stuff like that on trade no it's like they're jumping yeah okay first attempt on the three doubles nice oh so good i went really slow on the first one yeah so you better go a bit faster than i did yeah and push and the third one has to show a little pedal yeah so you need a lot of speed yeah you don't want obviously to overshoot the first one though no so if you go fast enough you can just go super smooth on it this is one of the best exercises of mountain biking is to learn how to carry speed with the terrain on those gems the way i do it is that i look red and i try to land front wheel first and when my rear wheel touches the ground i make myself as heavy as i can in the compression just to carry speed and then i do the opposite movement on the way up to the next jump i'm basically pushing the compression extend so i can carry good speed yeah proper exercise your turn let's go alex first attempt you know fast you went quite big alex second attempt yeah let's go dude i'm the one at one dig i was following you on the wind draft i was catching up and i already overshoot the first one yeah it's sick okay on our way back to unicorn the edge huh oh slippery so fast such a nice trade say yo wow that is so offended how good was that it's so well built oh and the dirt is so different from squamish it's different in a different way but just so good no sorry different in a different way it doesn't make much sense you're all good i'm really about to trust the trail not knowing it you could see ahead you can see when it's shiny you know it's gonna be slippery oh so sick rock okay we're gonna make our way to the near wall so according to trail fox it's quite steep so let's see on the right sick wow so i think it's right there buddy this way i think so oh my goodness i was so sick so many lines let's do that i think it's the last part i can see the lake wow it's actually quite slippery here dude it is so fun so good 300. oh i can barely slow down whoa all good i was trying to see where i was going you guys definitely be a bit more careful oh i was incredible oh my god dude well how's sick help her we'll be back yeah i was not disappointed oh my god this was like i've been in canada for eight years now not the first time i come here man this felt like uh riding well now in honduras yeah just sliding down it's quite slippery yeah it is it's a bit wet yeah you got to be careful with your front brake just not too much cause easy to uh to lose attraction oh it's so fun let's try to go and get another lap somewhere thanks a lot guys for
