I lived in Wales for 7 years, grew up in the North. Now I live in England, but my heart is still very much in Wales. Once you experience the freedom and you move you soon realize just how much you've lost. I miss it so much.
Well put. I raced motocross for 6 years and in all reality I respect mountain bike riders a whole lot more. No sport is better than another, just enjoy doing what you do and respect others for what they do.
I'm an old dude and I just got into MTB a couple years back and I just want to say that this is an inspiring video to try and go harder and higher. Thanks and continued success to you and your friends, fam' and team!! GnJapan
Love watching this, it always provides inspiration for new filming and building projects and love watching the Atherton's, they have such a great sibling relationship. Hitting these huge jumps with each other has to be one of the best feelings in the world. Heroes.
To think that that's one mans work on that quary is simply amazing!.. it's a thing of beauty & to watch two brothers ride it for 1st time is beyond 😎 cool!..
i don't ride a lot of rock either. we have lots of dirt and clay soil. we build big jumps and berms with it. but i know what you mean. sometimes you just need that pure adrenaline rush of going down a rocky rooty section which you haven't ridden before. that's just pure magical experience. I had my last run like that in Malmedy bike park. me and my best biking friend went to go DH and found this new trails all muddy rocky steep and amazing lines. just absolute ADRENALINE. love it. DH 4 LIFE !!!!
did i hell haha! there absolutely massive, like crazy big plus your not aloud too, its for the athertons only think they do special days where you can though.
When i was younger we had something similar to this down the road at an old brick works and it got turned into residential houses..Oh the memories of the great times was had riding every day after school
if there was anything like this in my country than it would have been like a dream come true you guys are really awesome modifying the mountain and riding it
For everyone asking for more GoPro, there's a video of the top to bottom run via Gee's GoPro on Pinkbike and the Redbull site. TH-cam won't let people post direct links anymore but it's called "gee go pro test" on Redbull and "Video: Gee Atherton - Llangynog Quarry Helmet Cam" in an article on Pinkbike
i learned how to ride a bike when i was 2 lol im now 13 i recently gave up street riding and cross country i think its time to move to Downhill, this has inspired me to do that. the streets of belfast are boring
There's a video somewhere on Pinkbike (good luck finding it, though) with the full line top to bottom. So sick, it's a super smooth line with tons of speed despite the size
I feel like videos like this should be shown in highschool and/or middle school to kind of show the kids what other kind of sports are out there besides the limited sports offered in the school. Like, i never knew about any other sports or athletic activities outside the school because they were never advertised. If i did, i most likely would have had a more enjoyable time in school
You know what i do everyday? Sit at home watching downhill videos because i cant get a downhill bike:'( Wish i had one would be the greatest gift ever:(
Save money, go on eBay and you will have a mountain bike...wont be the best thing but its something you can learn and get better then u can get a better more expensive bike in future...
Dude just go on pink bike and get on for cheap it's not that hard or if you still can't afford a dh get a slope style bike with a bit of cushion. I just got the new specialized slope style bike and is holds up in downhill
Este é um dos melhores vídeos que já vi nesta modalidade , vocês são malucos, corajosos e eficientes no que fazem. Esta pista é linda e também é muito gratificante assistir este vídeo.Valeu!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
még sohasem láttam ehhez hasonlót,teljesen le vagyok nyűgözve, ahogyan egy lány legyőzi a természet adta akadályokat,számomra ez igen félelmetes,tiszteletet parancsol.Kitünő
These are called downhill mountainbikes: huge suspensions and very heavy frames (which is understandable when you look at the jumps they hit), and are pretty much impossible to pedal up a hill, they're purely for downhill and riding in bike parks. There's also a downhill world cup organized by the UCI (international cycling union) every year between may and October, and that's what those three siblings race in.
I agree with the other people that say more gopro. You don't get the true effect of those jumps until you get the POV shots. I'm extremely impressed that he made that course btw. So fucking sick and smoooth,

Ive walked up there and i had to lie down. You cannot imagine how massive, steep or beautifully crafted that quarry is. These people are superhuman.

Whole thin riding, people, editing, location, was mind blowing!
The Athertons,BIG in the game!keep inspiring the youth of today!anything is possible!RESPECT!

never to old..i only started when i was 20 and im glad i did :)
one of the best Red Bull films ever!

The most inspirational film I have ever seen!
The old BMX bottle and skills on a whole new level. These were young kids when I was racing in my teens. What a great life. Nice chaps, nice!
To think that that's one mans work on that quary is simply amazing!.. it's a thing of beauty & to watch two brothers ride it for 1st time is beyond 😎 cool!..
Which is why i'm SO happy my high school has allowed us to have a MTB club now where we can ride whether for fun or competition

they are so fecking big
Did you hit them?
did i hell haha!
there absolutely massive,
like crazy big

think they do special days where you can though.
When i was younger we had something similar to this down the road at an old brick works and it got turned into residential houses..Oh the memories of the great times was had riding every day after school
Cannot believe this video, its inspired me to ride as hard as i can!
if there was anything like this in my country than it would have been like a dream come true you guys are really awesome modifying the mountain and riding it
My favourite Downhill video ever
I love how all 3 of them always say "you know", you know.
Finally i can watch this video in HD and not in pixelated 240p on Red Bulls own video player. Crazy video. Its like Rampage in you backyard
6:27 nailed that landing inch perfect
+MrWIWARD Yup, what about 8:22
Like butter
Best Track I've ever Seen in my LIFE ! !
Gave me goose bumps 3 times watching this. So epic!
Just amazing talents,got to be the best dh trail I av seen.
Watchin you guys rip that up makes me proud to be a british rider...keep it up athertons.
if red bull was not around, i think sports would not be the same. Red bull does so much for people and sports.
Atherton! you make us dream! THIS is a way of life
this has got to be THE best video i have EVER seen!
Nothing is impossible. Live without fear, and ride.
It's redbull wot do u expect
I dont like Athertons so much but this video is one of my favourite.
3:37 redbull can even make a dude simply walking with a garden tool look badass.. That's awesome!
That step up is sick.
That needs to be used for a slopestlye contest. That place is awesome!!
you guys are my freaking example! i just bought my hardtail but i can't wait to start with downhill!
i have watched this video over 30 times now i love it
Those jumps look like SO much fun!!! Argh, I wanna ride there!
i cant believe how far riding has become in the past 10 years, this is deadass an average rider now
Those jumps look so fun!

-45...nuts man! Definitely too cold to ride.
ps Congrats on the bronze medal win over us at the world juniors hockey.
Very inspirational. Makes me wanna put the skis down and go get my bike out of the storage.
brilliant lighting and camera work.
10:00 from there onwards sums up DH for me. So stoked to get out at weekend now!
Those are some massive jumps. Bikepark for the elite, I suppose. Well done.
What a proud proud moment amazing ride, thanks 4 sharing
absolutely love this vid, im actually gna start downhill and freeride this year and i found this vid very inspiring....... keep it up guys
The song at 5:41 is: Shine - Evil 9 Remix
Wow.. That's just way too awesome!!!!
A slopestyle comp NEEDS to be held here
Awesome video, really uplifting makes me want to get out on the bike.
This gives me so much motivation to ride! A ride tomorrow then! :D Keep up the amazing work guys!
thank you redbull
Awsome last run, so nice!!
i learned how to ride a bike when i was 2 lol im now 13 i recently gave up street riding and cross country i think its time to move to Downhill, this has inspired me to do that. the streets of belfast are boring
I agree Belfast is shite
Im 14 years old and only do mountain biking but i also want to save up and buy a downhill bike
Im 15 and I've rode BMX, XC, Enduro and now up for FR on my way to DH. Saving for a custom SCOTT gambler to make my first ride in DH style...
Same situation for me exactly
Same!:)
that is a pretty amazing place to ride!! not even that far away
Every mornin this trails make me realize the kinda rider I become...I can't stop now...I never will...
There's a video somewhere on Pinkbike (good luck finding it, though) with the full line top to bottom. So sick, it's a super smooth line with tons of speed despite the size
Awesome shots, like always.
Best family ever
i want to go to that quarry so badly its like a paradise!
Truley well done mate thats a sick setup u created
That is a fantastic example of a great video
NOW THIS IS WHAT I WATCH IN TH-cam
I feel like videos like this should be shown in highschool and/or middle school to kind of show the kids what other kind of sports are out there besides the limited sports offered in the school. Like, i never knew about any other sports or athletic activities outside the school because they were never advertised. If i did, i most likely would have had a more enjoyable time in school
You know what i do everyday? Sit at home watching downhill videos because i cant get a downhill bike:'( Wish i had one would be the greatest gift ever:(
I also dodnt have tue Money Do buy such Bikes , i have normal mtb buy Try My best , i also build everything alone with some friends.
You can pick up a decent freeride/downhill bike for like £500. I payed £450 for my Kona Stinky :)
Save money, go on eBay and you will have a mountain bike...wont be the best thing but its something you can learn and get better then u can get a better more expensive bike in future...
***** Wow if you ride that bike downhill your body must ache after a long day of riding downhill...
Dude just go on pink bike and get on for cheap it's not that hard or if you still can't afford a dh get a slope style bike with a bit of cushion. I just got the new specialized slope style bike and is holds up in downhill
The greatest park in the World
Spettacolare video...

Looks amazing
Tunes are: Black Gold - Shine (Evil Nine Remix) and Twin Atlantic - Yes I Was Drunk (Draper Remix)
And the quarry is in Llangynog, WALES. Not England.
Keep the track going
Way cool! Good job on the quarry! Strange camera work tho. Quite great!
I agree with the other people that say more gopro. You don't get the true effect of those jumps until you get the POV shots. I'm extremely impressed that he made that course btw. So fucking sick and smoooth,
Wow, so awesome track...
Beautiful ride, nice video.
so proud to be a welsh rider!
c'mon redbull we need the atherton project season 4!
i would ride next to all the jumps completely making the whole thing devoid haha
Really nice Photography !!!!!!!!
Any more of the videos coming? They're brilliant
I have to study for mid-terms but instead this video made me lose my study time now ill be up to 1 am ... worth it hahha
great angles!
As awesome as this video is, I'd love to see Gee's full 1st person view from the top-down trailing Dan.
