I don't understand a single word of French, but the language of the bikes, the hill, the beautiful country, the look on the racers faces, now that I understand, it is universal. Brought a smile to this old guy, remembering days and rides gone by, trying to conquer my own hills, with my Maico 490...... I really hope this hill climb keeps going for for many more generations. I really like the enthusiasm of the crowd.... reminds me of America of old....just such a good quality video, captures the warrior spirit of the racers perfect, thanks from Seattle.
And the awesome videography as well! Looks like tilt-shift lenses were used for many of the shots and provided a great effect. Rarely do you really get a feel for the steepness of the hill and surrounding area.
When I was a kid there was this guy Malcolm Smith. He would go to hill climbs in California rain or shine and win with a stock motocross bike against the hill climbing specialist rides. The man was a genius rider and he proved its more about skill than rear swing arm ext., tire size, torque etc. Malcolm rode those heavy Husqvarna's and won many climbs as the only rider to the top. Hill climbing is one of the few bike sports that hasn't really changed much over time like trial riding, and road racing.
@@bikersoncall there are 'spotters' that are responsible for making sure the bikes dont roll back down onto onlookers. Sometimes they 'catch' them rolling downhill. Their job would be even tougher w/ a 2 stroke motor wide open with a tire spinning like a wood chipper. Yes true.
I have never had a chance to travel and have always lived in USA. Videos like this make me realize how alike we are. This seems very similar to the hill climbs in Livermore Ca. except the hills are more lush in France.
On many of the competitors you can actually see the fight between fear and resolve in their eyes. Like most top-level sports, the real struggle is mostly in the mind. Good job capturing this!
Fighting your nerves is half the battle, skills are the other half. Tho I've done hills this vertical, I couldn't do the length without losing momentum. It takes gutz to do this shyt. Respect.
The guy who ran about 80 feet down a mountain steeper than the stairs in my house while wearing motocross boots. Gets my vote. And he must have broken a speed record. He’s doing about 30 mph well done that man.
I'm 60 and I still go playing in a nearby quarry on my 1972 Suzuki 250. You can't beat the adrenaline rush of surviving a heart-stopper when you push too far 😀
I'd bet that your '72 Suzuki could climb that hill better than any of them. Those bikes are too heavy and geared WAY too high for hill climbing. It's not about speed; it's about traction and enough horsepower to keep going. Slow and steady with some standard knobby tires and you'll get up there easily on any old dirt bike
Très grosse qualité d'images et de montage : alternance des plans, des cadrages, les moments de calmes et de furie, pas de musique inutile... Vraiment un très bon boulot pour une vidéo très immersive, un plaisir à regarder, merci !
From U.S. LOVE the creativeness of these bikes & the toughness it takes. We have hill climbs here to, you guys are stretched a little more I think ? But it looks like an event by my home,, we're not as different as some think.
Documentaire très bien filmé, avec cœur et intelligence. Pourtant le scénario est simple ! Les gros plans sont intéressants qd on voit les petites mains et les petits bras même des plus costauds, qd on met en face la pente et les machines démentes..
I'm 58 and grew up with the wbmc in Minneapolis and used to go to hill climbs in Minnesota, recently found a goldwing strolling up a hill, banging off its 6 cylinder rev limiter all the way up, effortlessly, he made it in comfort with the stereo turned up
Fantastic video! Beautiful! Stunning! Love the beginning capturing the emotion, concentration, the energy and nerves. Really great video! Thank you for sharing! Great work! Keep it up, yo!
15:28 Looks like a stretched out 450 and straight to the top! True rider, I don't need no stinkin street bike engine! I think most of these guys just build these bikes for the build, the actual climb is secondary.
Most of the guys that make it to the top do so never having to plant thwir feet down for support. They ride the bike, many in the standing position. Never having to put a foot down to keep from tipping over. Great riding, great balance.
Excellent footage..this game can get a tad bit rough..nowhere near TT tough,but tough no less. 👍 8:12 I didn't know Hyde from "That 70's Show" was into hillclimbs! 😉😁
My dad took me to watch a hill climb over 50 years ago in White City IL. There was a guy they called Mr. Back Asswords. He would go up backwards sitting on the handlebars. Will never forget that
the green bike with the big bore two stroke went right up...light and nimble..and these guys with their stretched 800+ pound inline 4 street bike engine and spiked rear car tire struggle to beat the band!!!!
oh my god.. this video.. why the hell havent this been recomended be4?!?! the sound is absolute ear porn, the mood in the start of the film is chilling and real! dude the perfekt video dude!
I never watch all of most videos. I did on this one. Great sport, great people to watch the sport, looks like a wonderful place to be. Plus plus plus no video music.
this particular event makes for good viewing..i was watching another hill climb in Belgium on YT…none of the riders would get more than 3/4 the way up and spill on a slippery rocky section….there seemed to be no incentive to watch and as much as i love to watch hill climb….it bored me to tears and i tuned out…no disrespect to the riders…they had guts in spades all of them
While it would be fun to watch, IMHO, they wouldn’t get very far! The guys who made it to the finish line had specialized frames, engines, tires, AND a lot of experience!

The riders, the bikes are fantastic but the guy who shot and edited this is a star.
2 stroke fan all the way love the sound and the RPM’s never gets old!
This video was sweet man. Made me feel like I was there. Awesome to watch.
having the cameras on top and on the side of the hill it really show how steep they have to climb, great to see, all the best to every one
These guys are Braver and Crazier than I am that's for sure! I would never do it but I enjoy watching!
Good video, no crappy music and no one incessantly yapping all through the video.
This would be awesome to see live such a beautiful location skilled riders and being French most likely great food as well
When I can travel again... It will be 😊
butter and salt can make anything taste good.
The look on some of their faces was priceless. Their faces were saying ''Damn why did this thing start."
I was going to say, they look French.
So something like: The look on their faces was priceless. Their faces where saying "putain, pourquoi mon moteur démarre-t-il."
This to me was just priceless, like an actual movie, it sets the scene beautifully. Just top notch film making.
А я также смотрела на экипировку.
This is just awesome you don't reliase the angle till you see from top of hill.
Agreed two stroke FTW
Enfin une super vidéo sur le sujet merci mec.

Excellent production!
From INDIA...nice one plss upload more videos n keep running ur challenging games..loved it
Cool event, awesome video, crazy riders. I love it. Thanks for sharing.
Merci
My beautiful region, vive les gars de la Haute!
I love to see what ingenious designs the teams come up with.
Funny how a older engine will have as good a chance as a modern one....
Wow… This has to be the best video production for a hill climb event ever… Super cool to watch
Not just a young man's sport. Thats awesome.
3:50 is the first shot I've ever seen that shows just how steep the hill is.
I feel like I’ve previously seen some lunatics running down this hill chasing a cheese!
Cheesy comment!!
Lmao

Give a man a hill..........
Yep, here where I'm from..... Gloucestershire...
Crazy! And video production and edit are really good.

Très bon montage. Bonne idée l'option sans musique.
In a couple thousand years those bikes can make the alps a flatland.
13:00~ 2 stroke, feet on the pegs all the way up. Beautiful ride!
this should be a Summer Olympic Event!
Loved the sound track, thank the musicians, Honda, Suzuki, Yamaha, ? Ducati? Any others?

10:10 this Guy just made it!!!
First time in all of these hillclimb videos that I've seen a competitor make it!
@@fprintf Same. I've seen 20 or 30 videos, and never seen someone complete the climb. That guy is a freaking HERO! Just sayin' 🙂

@@paull4102 yes but the way they modified them for this was terrible.
@@benritenour1579 thats what im sayin ya nut haha.
Brother if a bike stretched 4 foot is doing wheelies up this hill your not gonna make it on a "normal 450" lol
I always want to see a regular bike like a ktm 530 or a cr 500 or something just to see how high they get, to put contrast on these specialist bikes
My buddy has a cr 500 that came with the extended rear but he took it off as soon as he bought it. It was a badass bike regardless.
Backflips every 7.5 seconds
While it would be fun to watch, IMHO, they wouldn’t get very far! The guys who made it to the finish line had specialized frames, engines, tires, AND a lot of experience!
13:30 At least that guy has the original engine, i think its an old kx500
probably the same distance. these bikes are a lot heavier
