Whistler Revisited | Have I improved since last year?

- Last year I visited Whistler Blackcomb and rode lift access downhill for the first time. There was no tech trail I could not clean, but with my lack of experience in riding big jumps, I couldn't even get through a single black diamond jump trail. Exactly one year later with a host of experiences under my belt, I visit Whistler again for round two.

"Excuse me, are you the guy from Seth's Bike Hacks?"
"I am"
"You are?!"
Those kids on the lift are so cute.
Aldude and really nice
Aldude yeah🥺🥺🥺
Seth that is so sick. I am the kid at the end. Dwayne is harder than crab apples the jump is weirder. You got this! Thanks so much seth this means the world to me!
Heck yeah, keep shredding dude!
cloe houston Thanks dude!
Shred bro Incorporated Right on I see your Crabapple Hits 2018🤘 very nice
Walt Robinson Thanks it means a lot dude.
Yo where do u ride locally I'm from the shore u seem like a shredder
Whistler has a way of scaring the crap out of you *and* giving you the biggest confidence boost of your life.. all at the same time. It’s a special place!
The Loam Ranger I have a process 134 do you think it would be ok to take to the bike park in Angel Fire, NM? Or should I just get a rental?
SEND IT 806 I mean, that bike would be fine, but if you have the cash, save your bike and your body with a proper DH rental.
The Loam Ranger Thanks man I appreciate the advice. Your videos kick ass.
Smeash that like button for grom camp!
Seth's Bike Hacks can you do more big jumps on video
Did you ride your 5c or Mission Pro??
EDIT: Ok it’s your 5c I watched the video again
I loved the POV style video, and congrats on the progression.
Seth's Bike Hacks crabapple hits!!!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘
Bor666NL im pretty sure he killed the mission pro for the sync r carbon
I love how low-key Seth was acting with his fan
Who else met him at Sea Otter?
Charlie Wolschon not me
My goal is to do crapapple this year as well..... on my hardtail 😅- maybe we can die together on them!
Daily MTB Rider I call dibs on the stack of la croix in your garage.
Trail Features they better be lemon or lime
Keep a spot in that graveyard for me, eh?
Lol if u case it on ur hardtail ur dead
Insaniac! Still totally do'able if u hit the landing perfectly...IF...
"The helmets are bigger than the kids" lmao
Their parents value mtb mine say it's just a dumb fase
Why am I seeing you everywhere
Slimy Cranks TV what other videos have you seen me in?
Stizzy Newyorkcity I don’t know I’ve just seen you somewhere
Slimy Cranks TV Ahh ok gotcha
After hitting that jump at 5:40 I'm pretty sure Seth never landed and uploaded this from space.
definitely
Trail Features Haha😂
Dwayne Johnson is crazy lol never hit it personally I always just go down whistler downhill
Trail Features stop by the iss
I loved the fan on the lift 😂 “excuse me, are you the guy from Seth’s Bine Hacks”
“Yeah”
“Oh”
Freaking loved this change of pace from your normal style! I want more like this, I know it’s not your normal gig but damn I enjoyed this one.
I want to see Seth break out of his comfort zone and get crazy on a DH rig.
Despite the lack of time you still put out a great vid. I don't know how you do it man it's unbelieveble
Who else is hyped to see this?!
JakerMB I did too
everyone
Seth that was a cool progression update. I can't get over how calm you were while hitting those!
i'm leaving for BC tomorrow and moving there in May, this makes me so much more excited to begin the journey! I can't wait to see you out there!
Good for you man! If you need to travel too far to do what you love, you're doing it wrong.
Seth's Bike Hacks I will be slightly less of an environmental disaster 😂
What part of BC are you moving to? If Vancouver island, there are endless amounts of trails that are amazing!
haven't decided yet! I am not a fan of cities.
Biking With Panda perfect! Vancouver island is amazing! I definitely sugest. The biggest city besides Victoria is nanimo with has awesome flowy trails and Cumberland/Courtenay have nice coastal and natural trails. Go on trail forks and take a peek, aaand the winters arnt super long and cold (but still has a decent sized ski resort.(Mt Washington)
Seth I’ve been watching your videos ever since the beginning and me and my friends have good ALL of your bike hacks thank you for sharing your videos with us because they really inspired my friends and I to try new things build new things and LEARN new thinks thanks man
yo love the channel! really like the "raw" feel of the video with less voice over after the fact and more of the vlog type feel. keep it up!
Watching you with skills way beyond my own and trying to get better with stuff I can only "have nightmares" about is awesome thank you.
This video gives me so much hope for my own progression! It's great to see a rider improving! Keep sending it dude! :)
Hey first of I one to say thank you second you are my hero...I used to be the kid in the corner at school sleeping and now I'm the kid upfront and ready thank you very much for inspiring me to do stuff I didn't think I could do
“It probably doesn’t look steep on camera” I almost fell foreword watching how steep that was 😂
I don't mountain bike or much like that I only do race bmx, but your videos are the most enjoyable videos i watch. Especially the videos of you making things. Please keep up the amazing work you bloody legend
Love the vids keep it up
Seth! You're the man! Enjoy all your videos. I used to race XC long time ago. Fell in love with mtn biking then but life got in the way past 10 years. Back in the saddle and loving it last year or so. i crushed all your videos here recently. First channel i've subscribed to ever on youtube! Congrats on making a gig of it and thanks for spreading the excitement.
Thats frigin sick man, cant believe how much you progressed this year! Cant wait to see you do crabapple hits
Thanks for being a stand up dude and taking time out of your lunch to snap a picture with the kids from camp! We appreciate that!
Hey seth’ could u please do more podcasts. I really enjoyed them and listen to theme nearly every day. And .... respect for doing that on a 130mm trailbike, u should maybe get a dh bike cause ur gone destroy the 5c
dude Not gonna lie I haven’t watched your channel for a while, watching this shocked me so much I’m acc insanely impressed I did not know you had progressed this much, inspiration literally, good on you man
That joke about the last jump on Aline killed me “but that’s not usually the CASE”
I don't do any cycling at all. But im very addicted to these videos.
I'm going to Whistler in the next week or two, for my first time. I can't wait!
Great video, but I really wasn't sure you were going to make that A-Frame and I think the roll in on the drama drop is steeper. Keep it up man, love your videos
I am 51 yrs old, never did BMX or Downhill. I love riding whether it's Road or Mtn. On Road I love speed, but love distances better. On Mtn, I love technical trails, slow or fast. My point is, I wish I had a 1/10th of your abilities on the bike. You definitely can tear it up on the bike. Keep it up 👍
47 here and riding park for the first time this year. It's been fun to learn new skills like berms, jumps and manuals.
Seth, I'd say you killed it for being new to this terrain! Also riding a 130 trail bike which is not ideal but shows they are more capable than people think.
I've been watching set for 2 years and this is my new favorite video
One year after the collab with Jordan Boostmaster?
Damn. Time flies
Great video, wish it was longer it was so awesome. Just a pure good hearted video about what's right in the world. Healthy progression and the youth of today looking awesome in this sport!
My goal this year is to do my first wheelie... i've started MTBiking a few moths ago and i'm a little bit obsessed xD
Hahaha same here, how's your progress?
Hey Seth! Daniel here. I have been following you since your trial tutorial a couple years back (with your 4play). I had been riding for 15 years and i had trouble lifting my front wheel at the time. You have been such an inspiration since! Now, i can bunny hop a picnic table. Thank you man!
It’s funny because i was suppose to be in Whistler this week (I live in Montreal). Yeah, my first ever mtb trip. Even though i am 40. My best friend as taken a year off to live there and he invited me to his apartment for a 2 weeks trip.
I must say he managed to progress a lot during his year there! Even though he had a hard time on Crank it up at the beginning of last summer, now he can clear Crabapple hit!!!
So i was training hard on my local Jumpline since last summer in order to get ready to clear A-LINE and frankly, i think i was prepared!!
Unfortunately, i broke my right hand 3 weeks ago (almost same way you did in Florida). I had to cancel my trip since the doctor said i have to wait till mid august before i can get up on a bike again (FUCK!!!).
I am not sure this opportunity will ever occur again since my friend who have been living there will be back for good in early August!
It was a dream come true! The first week was in the bike park and then the second week we had plan to ride Froome (on your advice), then Squamish, then Whistler valley and Pemberton.
So, life’s a bitch sometime. Anyway, sorry Seth to have filled your commentary section with a depressing story. But it felt good writing this has i have not much to do while i am waiting for this hand to heel. And for the others, just a reminder to be careful before leaving for the trip of a lifetime!!
Jesus those doubles in POV look tiny but they are actually massive
Oh man. Well done. Be proud of yourself for this progression. It is really great. You're a great idol for me. You keep me riding.
Please upload twice a week 😂
Geofandra TV ik I’m just dreaming of the better times 😂
Towards the end, the talk about getting old... I feel your pain. I'm 44 years old, and still ride DH. I get tired quicker, and stay sore for longer periods of time. Getting old is a sad reality that we all face.
Finally a vid ❤️❤️
Ooo - Crabapple Hits - I remember cringing watching Phil do it on his Calling. It made my stomach clench just watching his chest rig video. Can't wait, man.
Hey Seth, test the vittoria airliner
So awesome to see how much you have progressed in only a year! Very inspiring.
Dwan " jump the rock" Johnson
Seth so Glad to see to you in Whistler. ! I have been watching your channel for 3 years I finally went n got a Norco hard tail to get back into biking! Your an inspiration! Keep up the amazing videos love the work! Hopefully I’ll run into you the next time your in whistler 😎
Short but sweet u Smeash-ed it seth
Bro I just love how real you are. Every time I watch one of your vids I feel better about not being pro level at places like bike parks; even though you are crash-hot you are relatable at the same time. Peace from NZ
Could you do another product review video or 10 bike hacks when you can?
Sean Yeha I love that style of video
We are basically physically identical, and it’s great seeing you improve. I love riding bikes and have so little aptitude for it that I’d probably end up in the hospital dozens of times if I tried the stuff you do.
good 👍
not good! AMAZING!
Loved the riding w/ live narration Seth. Love your work
Think upgrading a boundary is a good idea?
Sennax no
Sennax save up more and upgrade an xr pro
Sennax watch kev central and learn about the XR Pro
V impressive Seth...I had a helmet splitting crash just as I was progressing to medium stuff...now back to 1 bike length gaps and 2 foot kickers...for good...so anyone doing A line is a legend in my book 👍
Im kinda sad that theres no trails anywhere near i live
Same
Just go out and build em then ;)
I have
It's nice to see that you've progressed from 3 stair drops on the hard tail 4-5 years ago to what you posted today.
Gives me faith that my 30's are going to be so bad after all 😂😂
I clicked this video faster than the flash
No u
I've been watching for the last couple of years and I really enjoyed this video, Keep it up Seth, it's nice to see the come back and watch you dominate the trails
Legend has it that if you are early you can get a heart from seth edit: turns out the legend is fake
528 Racing it’s just Legends, Sry bro
the legend is fake.
You thought 😂😂🤦🏼♂️
The legend is fakeeee!!!!!
Thanks Seth! I love ur vids and you are the one that I have watched 4 the longest period of time. Keep up the good work at making me smile!
Please feature your trail dog in your next video
Congrats on your progression. Always love the videos of you riding.
Next thing Trick them 🤙
Hey Seth keep up the videos I love them. In about a week I am getting a specialized rockhopper pro 29 so I can finally be free from my specialized p20 grom

Alamin Kadir that's Seth's magic. He's that good.
Obed Leyva my eyes have been opened
He is soooo close to 2 mil. Great videos Seth keep up the amazing videos
People who disliked smeashed the like button too hard and accidentally missed
Who's the man? You, you are in fact THE MAN! Great job on the progression and inspiration.
will you marry me seth?
wut. he's already married...
I will tho
hell yeah, sending it! Whistler is awesome!
LOVE THIS. People who complain they need more travel should be made to watch this to see what you do on a 130mm bike
“It’s all new to me.” Yet completely shreds like a badass.
Well done seth, crazy to see such young kids tackling such huge jumps.
I don't know about you but man am I happy to see Seth improve. Not only on mountain biking but also his channel improves. Keep up the good work !!
Seth I always like your videos before I even watch them because every one is pure gold 👊😎
Extremely impressive to be able to do commentary when concentrating on the high level technical stuff. Great job!
Damn dude, this is awesome! Very encouraging for a newb like me.
I took a wicked crash and snapped my carbon handle bars on the last jump line I went on at Snow Summit. Seeing this video makes me want to keep at it and push myself to ramp up my jump progression!
Hey! I just got to Whistler today! My goal is to RIDE a full A-Line, cases and all tomorrow -. cleared chunks of the Blue jump lines also did "No Joke" but on a big DH rent-bike (doubt my 29er TB could do it). Speed is the friend, and enemy of all this nonsense. I'll be looking for you tomorrow!
The reason why I bought a mid travel trail bike is because of you. You smeashed Whistler with the Release. Diamondback would've been proud.
amazing monologue dude on pulp fiction
and also that Pulp Fiction soundtrack at the end fire!
Great combination of rides. Thanks for keeping the words clean.
Seth you've gotten so much better in the past year! Awesome video
Honestly one of my favorite videos in a while seth. Really well done
Sick work, Seth! Those jumps are no joke, in particular those doubles. They scare the crap out of me. At least with tabletops you just beat up your bike a bit, but coming up short on a double is bad times. Well done, you'll be hitting Crabapple in no time!
I live how no matter how hard seth goes, he always remains so humble and calm
Mega Seth! As a trials rider as a kid/teen, I now specialise in all the gear know idea on a big travel bike. This gives me hope to fly one day. 🤙🏻
AMAZING VIDEO SETH!! You always have the best quality and the best camera angles
I was at Whistler 2 weeks ago for the first time. I was so excited About shredding trails but it rained and I never got the chance. We ended up finding this amazing bike park at Valemount BC with some of the coolest jump lines. Access of the trails was free and they were in AMAZING condition! I highly recommend to any biker in the area to go ride them. When I saw this video I couldn't believe I missed Seth by 2 weeks😂. But it's so cool to see this video filmed in the same area!
CZ Speed Dude. We ride every trail in the rain. Try Detroit Rock City in a down pour. Pretty greasy fun 😀
Some of the trails I wanted to ride were closed. So I decided to wait for Valemount.
But I definitely agree riding in the rain is definitely fun!
dude you can ride the park in the rain, the jump trails are fine some of the tech is challenging... there is never a day when you can't ride the bike park. Valemount is cool for sure but Whistler is another level.
I love this channel it how helped me get through stress and anxiety. Just watching your videos makes me want to learn so much more about mountain biking.
its been more than an honor to watch you progress.
That was awesome! Congrats on pushing yourself and your progression! Sure looks like a BLAST!
Killed it, Seth!! Love watching your improvement and development! Keep it up!
I have no idea what you where like last year, but you are babe as he'll this year. Chapeau!
I like how your talking while your riding and explaining what lines you will take!
Love the commentary while riding! Thanks.
Nicely done! casemagic here. Though I have not ridden A line in 14 years, I cased everything and not ashamed of it. Hey I am aged 50. gonna go back this Sept
Congrats on the progression this was so cool to watch seeing how much your progressed I hope I can improve like that
