- Opening day at Whistler 2022! This is my first trip back to whistler bike park in 3 years. In my career, I've ridden a lot of bike parks and there's still no other place quite like this. Today I got a chance to ride and catch back up with old mountain bike friends. This will be my first video of my whistler bike park trip, and there will be plenty more coming.

Imagine going your fastest down a trail and Phil comes flying past just casually talking to “him self” 😂
😂😂
I'm dying haha
I was litterally just thinking this! We need to see race speed Phil on some of these trails.
Hahahahah
I talk to myself when I ride too, lmao
It was good to catch up and ride dude! Hopefully it won’t be another three year wait before the next time 🍻
Yes and yes! It was great catching up with you. Hopefully we can do it again rather sooner than later!
There’s something so satisfying about seeing Phil blast thought tech likes it’s nothing, and giggling the whole time.
and taking whatever lines he likes...
Great to catch some laps Phil!
Likewise man, we never made God on our nobl quest to no hander!
Watching you all run together is like watching the All Star Game. So rad.
I believe that MTB is attractive to thpse with ADHD because if the high amount and varied stimulation. I'm glad you guys were comfortable sharing that.
It's weird I was in the exact same situation as Phil like the pandemic things just got worse. I just got diagnosed with it and mountain biking seems to really help.
100%
@@masonwallsmtb4607 that’s awesome. MTB is great for me as well and it’s also a good tool to use when combatting depression.
@@BudoDave76 yeah that was one of the diagnosis that came with the ADHD. I seem to be happiest when out on my bike it also really helps that everyone in the community is so friendly.
@@masonwallsmtb4607 same here, man! Proud of you for getting help and riding!
10:24 I love how Phil casually sits down and wipes dirt off the GoPro before sending it down a road gap at Fade to Black.
As someone with Adhd I loved the little interaction you and your buddy had. It’s easy to not notice but then when I was told a lot of my mannerisms made a lot more sense haha
I guess one of my teachers in 3rd grade said something to my parents but that message never got relayed to me. It's very interesting to look back and think about how a lot of my mannerisms, hobbies and personality has been a result of this without me realizing it. Again, I haven't been diagnosed, but at least being aware of the likelihood has helped me a ton.
@@SkillsWithPhil I was diagnosed a few years ago. It's definitely nice to have a better understanding of the way my brain works. Or sometimes doesn't work
100%. It was definitely eye-opening to realize so many of my mannerisms are linked to ADHD (the good and the… less good haha).
I was diagnosed in kindergarten and it’s much harder to manage as an adult. Mountain biking helps
Phil: *loses goggles*
Also phil: proceeded to ride at insane speed through mud and puddles on his way to find goggles
I get so stressed out when I watch Phil casually destroying I can’t even process the video terrain at that speed
So many familiar faces in one ride. Must have been a blast.
Skills with Phil + Whistler bike park = Best thing on the Internet
Damn, a drop large enough to unleash Phil's girl voice 😅
4:44 Wow! It’s like you rolled up on my TH-cam sub list! (The other half hanging out at Berm Park)
So rad to see you back up in BC. And with all the local content creators just shredding! I miss riding Whistler so much. Have fun Phil.🤙
Dude it's weird I just got diagnosed with ADHD and mountain biking seems to really help me out.
"lets just ease into it...." Phil is on a different level, my absolute flat out is nowhere near as smooth and fast as that!
Was expecting the east coast bike park circuit videos but WOW! Phil coming out of left field with a whistler video is one of the best parts of this week no doubt!
This video was even better because Boostmaster and all the other TH-camrs being there was a surprise and not clickbait.
"Jordan gets Phil to whimper." Man, that drop was scary even on video!
Lol brought the Mickey out of him.
So satisfying @11:43 when the mud bounced back off the lens… I can hear the crowd cheering
Can't wait to visit Whistler some day!
Saw you at Highland opening weekend but didn't want to bother you and your buddy. It's always funny seeing your fans greet you though, and you're always super chill with everyone interrupting your conversations. 🤙🤙😅
I hope Nick posts his follow video of you shredding these trails. Well done, brother.
lmao i was just thinking that
It's coming!
What a great video 🙏 makes me really want to go out there we really don’t have any good parks in Miami FL 🤷♂️
Nothing wrong with just a Go Pro. Opening Day and your first time at Whistler in a while, enjoy it without the stress of making a video.
All the faces from my top favorite mtb youtubers is delightful to see.
Oh the ADHD realizations. I had those a few years ago! I have a feeling a lot of MTBers have ADHD. The hyperfocus riding gives you tunes out all the excessive stuff. I know quite of a few other MTBers who have ADHD or are on the spectrum.
Been waiting all Winter for new Phil content and this hits the spot. Hitting my 1st lift service bike park ever end of May, early June. Snowshoe. Thanks for the skills Phil!
everyone has been missing the whistler videos and now they are finally back
Dude I love watching your videos you seem like such a nice guy and you are really good at biking
Dude wiped the screen and then sent the drop . Legend. Love ya Phil
Do they ever do night events? I have about 18 feet of rgb LEDs all over my bike that would look incredible on a trail.
Camera swipe transition at 15:20 was cleannnn 👌
My favorite was at 11:45 when he hit a big drop a bit rough to clear the dirt that had just appeared on the lens.
i was about to make a comment on this Transition, that indeed was crisp~ 🤌
Phil, you are just such a genuine person from what I can gather from your videos. Your love of biking comes through and is infectious to both the people that you encounter on the trails and the people watching the videos. Thanks for the great content and have a wonderful season of riding. I'll be following along from Owen Sound, ON, Canada. I am the coordinator for our local high school race series. We have our 5th of 6 races today and it is at an amazing trail centre. I will be taking 31 of my own high school students to race and we will join up with the other schools.
Hey Phil garbanzo is scheduled to open June 11 but I really don't think that's gonna happen
I’m in this video yes
Wow that was awesome. Thanks for sharing your whislter videos, its like riding a rollercoaster. You got skills. Smooth riding.
Awesome to see you back at Whistler! It's surreal how thanks to TH-cam I recognize everyone and all the trails in this video even though I've never been there!
book the trip now
Love watching you and Jordan ride together. Y’all both have such an amazing pace
Big Drop: “I kind of knew what to expect but it was more than I remembered”
😂
Back at whistler sick!!! Been 4 years for me
That drop at 24:40 did even caught me off guard, even tho I am only watching
ya that was huge haha
Anyone knows how tall that drop is? Looks to be around 12-15ft
@@rataflas yeah, probably more than 15.. I mean the original Drama Drop was 13+ and this was way bigger..
@@lamefart lander doesn't look that steep for such tall drop either 😬
@@rataflas exactly, but it was built like as a roller that you can drop off of. Just like the entrance in A Line but higher and steeper, and more like drop to flat. A suspension, ankle, and wheel wrecker. Hahaha
@Skills With Phil - Great video. Cool to see you riding outside of VT. Would love to see a video of you riding some of the janky trails on the North Shore. Have a great trip.
Jordan boostmaster better be making a whistler video
Did I just witness the real avengers assemblate?
Sometime in the future I’m gonna set aside the time and money and go to Whistler for opening day.
ooo nice to see Bcpov
Camera....ON POINT again, as usual!! Thinking maybe those last two just had the angle a hair too low. As usual, you're riding fast like it's not even wet, while you comment about how slick it is. I'd be riding along, feeling happy I'm staying on two wheels in that muck, and you would fly by and gap something like it's nothing.
Hey Phil so hyped got to meet u all at the top of Shlayer sorry if I interrupted you.
Nah man, it's all good :)
So can I ask if you drove there are you flew there? If you flew there how did your package your bike? what type of travel bag do you have? And what did the airline charge you?
I flew business class for the first time ever. They allow two checked bags (free) and the max weight is bumped up. Economy is max 50lbs, business/first class is 70lbs. My bag came right in at 70. You can also rebook flights for free which was handy given the opening got delayed. I felt like a fish out of water amongst the suit and toes with my stained clothes and superglued carryon. It was more cost effective for to fly this way versus economy.
@@SkillsWithPhil sweet thanks for the info and responding!!!
Stoked to watch this video when I get out of work!
The lens wipe right before the fade to black drop haha. Legendary 🤟🏻
Right where Phil belongs
Good fun watching ole Skills vidz... BCPOV is thinking what we all think... HTF, does Phil ride the way he does!?
Phil, Where’s Hailey??
She's working. She's a lab manager, and does cancer research.
ADHD and distractions --- I changed the order i put stuff in the garage, then i had to look at something. I left my daughters new, full suspension bike outside. at 5 AM i wake in a panic, run outside gone. I'm on verge of crying. There are over 4,000 bikes a year stolen in the city i live in. I thought it was gone. Thank God there are still good people out there. A niaghbour a few doors down, and across the lane, seen the bikes, locked them up in his garage for me. I hugged the guy. I am so lucky, and he clearly did the right thing. Thank you again Andrea!
Awesome Phil 🤩🤘🔥
True man haha :)
I wish I was closer to Whistler.. Not much for this kind of riding in Edmonton I don't think.
The only thing that scares you is wood features that are wet! 20 foot drop? No problem! A 1 foot wooden bridge! He takes a rock slab in the wet. LOL frikin love this guy!
Amazing man! Thanks for another great video.
You need to try going to Vancouver island a lot of sick trails
Once I lost my phone there, had to go onto Crabapple Hits (ofc my weakness) and look for it, cracked up screen I still have.
Hey Phil, how do you get your bike there? Thanks, great video!
I would think at the speed you're going down those trails, any distraction could have dire consequences. Just stay ion the zone even if a bomb goes off.
Phil at Whistler again! Woo! 🤘
Favorite quote of the video... @BCPOV - "How did you know how fast to go? You just going Phil speed and that's it?"
I imagine it could get a little frustrating when you are unsure of something like the speed to go for clearing jumps that you've seen before and some dude goes blind into one, and makes it look easy.
Great video with a lot of the MTB TH-cam crew I subscribe to.
24:40 JEEZUS PHIL
Internationally known on the bike-phone *is that skills with Phil?!
Get interviewed by Jason Simulator 2022
yoooo sick video! coming over to bc from my brothers wedding this week and I'm heading to whistler on Friday for a blast! Cannot wait! that trail Canadian open is definitely right up my street! 😍😍
Phil, I would love to know what your suspension set up is, I want my bike to feel that poppy without having too much rebound for the tech
Phil what’s your favourite trail in whistler??
5:10 - interesting to see a Deviate Highlander over there, they're made just along the road from me.
wait it's not normal to think about eye contact and when to stop speaking etc in a f2f conversation?
Does anybody know any trails near Richmond Virginia that are any good.
15:19 sweet transition
Whisler is overrated just like Vancouver . No thanks
Never been riding something like this, I can hardly ride a bike as it is =/ But ! I've always
wondered how long time does it take for some1 like you Phil to go from the top to bottom? And what an average rider take?
And what gears are ppl on when they do stuff like this, I get that u switch but some base gear? If there is such a thing?
That was a rough ride to get the googles. I would have gone over the bars multiple times.
Great vid Phil, I miss living in Vancouver and visiting Whistler. What are the chances of you visiting the UK, specifically Bike Park Wales?
Whistler is good but no creekside this year, $750 for the season pass it is pretty expensive for what it is with half of the trails open. Les Portes du Soleil is still the best bikepark, better technical and jumps trails, cheap, amazing food and no lineups.
Gimbal footage remains better for those of us with simulation sickness. The stable horizon is a critical change. The helmet perspective forces me to watch your videos (most MTB videos now) in a window to not get nauseous.
I was working a Few blocks away when you were filming this lol
Have you had any trouble with Vespers holding up? I ride Classics since I’m a heavier guy. If Vespers hold up well, it would be nice to save a little weight on the hubs.
Hey phil:
I think its pretty cool that we almost have the same bike because i have a (2017 GT force full carbon 27,5)
Hope you have a great day bye(:
hi Phil, nice video ... but could u makea how to cornering so fast! its insane...i believe u have an IRON Man headup Display in the google ;)
I would really love to ride my mtb in whistler .... damn those 10.000km+ distance :(
*crys in europe*
Phil, you really need to come out and check out Port Gamble in Washington state. They are doing some big things up here. Let me know, and Ill see what I can do to help you make the trip.
Thanks for leaving in the candid ADHD talk, I have an appointment to see about a diagnosis next week.
Also, I always assumed you had it and already knew lol
your a good bloke phil funny as fk greets from australia mate
i like how you put what bike you were riding at the beginning of the video.
Wouldnt be a Phil video at whistler without a creaky & something tapping bike. love it. just ride it its a bike :)
Woo Hoo!
Phil: mentions snow on the ground
Me, in Texas: Wow, thank god that week and a half of at or near 100 degree weather is finally over, for now.
Phil: My favourite thing, water in wooden ladders.
Me: *flashbacks to the time a train of me and 8 people all wiped out in NC on a super wet wooden feature and 4 of us went off the side into a river*
10:23 deadass straight wiping his camera right on the takeoff💀
Phil , How wide are your handlebars??? Some sections it looked you were on on the edge of clipping a 🌳
Your speed is insane, especially given the conditions! 😱😱
Man i want to go here some day.
Great vid as always man.
Hey Phil, what ever happened to that Cavern you went to with Seth? You ever gone back there, if it's still there.
It closed a few years back 🙁
Epic shred vid. So many favorites peeps in one vid.
