This and th-cam.com/users/ninablangstrup and Pewdiepie... I wish yt did something to support authentic creators who give WAY more than they get back...
Potato Jet, I am a 58 year father of three grown up woman. I have been watching you since day 1, you take us places and show us old folks new tricks and treasures. Looking forward to many more years.
2:23 as someone who also has adhd, the point of just saying "screw it" is the best thing you can do imo. I went through a period of trying to be "normal" and "fit in" but i realized i started losing my sense of self. Instead of trying to fit in some mold or box, i just do what i want to do without forcing myself to be someone im not. Has massively helped me enjoy life more.
Love your channel, Love how you and your wife do reviews together. Love your crew and how you have fun doing your reviews. Keep being you and doing what you do.
Last year I got diagnosed with ADHD and started medication at the beginning of this year. The first six months I got hyper fixated on stuff. But now I have learned more about myself and how I operate to take control of my life. I have now realized that I need to have progress. I don't like to plateau and put myself in cruise control. I'm still learning that it's Ok to have ebbs and flows. I started playing golf and got super into that and plan to keep up on that instead of just abandoning it like other hobbies. They are hobbies. It's ok to focus on others. Cheers man - I'm glad you're doing what makes you happy.
Love your videos! You should definitely consider getting into eMTBs (electric mountain bikes). I started with regular mountain biking, but eMTBs are on another level, they're so much fun! A lot of dirt bike rider also ride eMTBs. Plus, you can ride in places where motorcycles aren't allowed. There's a lot of buzz about an upcoming eMTB from DJI called the Amflow. Everyone's talking about it because it combines incredible power with an ultra-lightweight design. You could even get two-one for you and a friend-so you can explore deep into the hills together in total silence. It's an amazing experience!
When a girl trades in her bike so you can get your bike, you know she's a keeper! Looking forward to more 2-wheels content, besides your sought-after photo/videography stuff of course, Gene!
It’s good seeing you fam, I struggle with complicating videos so much to the point I just end up scrapping them too. I think I’m just going to try to just keep things simple and upload them before I get discouraged or distracted lol. I wish you all the best Merry Christmas!
Picked up 2x Tribex in 11.11 sale in China, loved them so much! Paid 600 bucks in total and received a free 350Watts cob light. OMG this is the best purchase I have ever made in my life. Thanks for creating such a brilliant product Gene!
I'm happy to have been a part of your journey on TH-cam, from when I first started watching you back in 2018-2019 when I first got into Photography and Videography, my first Full Frame, my migration from Canon to Sony series (thanks to you). Sadly 3 years ago I stopped working on my Photo and Video stuff when I moved states here in Australia; progressing my IT Career, but I'd still pop by and watch your videos from time to time. With ADHD as you know, it is very hard to remember things (or people) that aren't directly in front of you, and I blame TH-cams Algorithm for not showing me your Videos ever since my interests and hobbies changed over the last few years. I still pickup my Camera from time to time and go out and shoot, edit and grade and love the results, especially since now I do it for myself rather than a Business. Overall though, watching your videos has felt more like I've been watching a friend progress over the years rather than another TH-camr trying to sell me or just to get views.
bro i love your channel, im from brazil and im very thankful, this channel is a part of my identity a part of something i love, and this love make me learne a new language so thank you very much.
Soo nice to see this video and you guys pop up on you YT feed. Haven’t seen your videos for a long time. You definitely have high peek energy and I really like it. Thank you and looking forward to you future videos for sure!!
This channel has always felt like a good friend. Always interested to see what's happening with you and the whole gang, and of course the dogs. Such good vibes. Thank you!!
Seeing you on a Surron is so cool! ADHD led me to bikes too, and it's been one of the few hobbies that's stuck & feels lifelong. Keep up the great work, love these types of videos!
You're welcome! Man, I was so worried when I saw the title in my notifications… I definitely wasn’t thinking about it being a graduation video at all!!
You’re such a good dude! I’ve worked professionally in film/tv for over 15 years as an IATSE journeyman production sound mixer and I sincerely appreciate your channel. Keep up the good work Mr. & Mrs. Jet!🎉
Brother its all good to let life take its own pace, there's no need to constantly be looking to put out content after content after content. We are just always glad to see you whenever you do make a video, updating us on the going-ons of you and Kari and everything. Wishing both of you a Happy Holiday!
I own your tripod so I hope you got Kari something nice for Christmas with the extra tripod money 😂 love you guys. Post your deleted videos on your second channel! Merry Christmas!
in french we often say "le mieux est l'ennemi du bien" (better is the enemy of good). it's great that you can keep your mind open for improvements of all sorts. just don't be too hard on yourself and have fun doing what you do.
This is very impressive - for a quickly made video. Just shows that with your experience and creativity (and probably even without) it is possible to create things much faster than you expect. And it is an eye opener for me on the issue of - should I publish it or not? Your personality shows through - and that is the important issue and what I like, much more than the fine touches. Just publish it therefore seems to be the right answer most of the time :-). I enjoyed watching you again and this kind of video definitely has its place in your production.
Met you at the Korean BBQ restaurant in Gardena. At the time you had never posted content related to mountain biking. I watched so many of your videos, so I can get tips to record good quality GoPro/drone footage of my rides, while strapping a GoPro to my full face helmet. I never posted them on social media, but shared them with family, at family events. I’m a advanced rider, and combined with the your advice on how to color grade , I got so many compliments. I went from a early morning rider, to a golden hour rider. All this to say, I wish I could’ve shared this, but didn’t want to be disrespectful, and ruin your dinner that night….thank you PJ seriously
I am happy you are enjoying doing off-road on your motorcycle. We love off-roading in Costa Rica, so if you ever want an off-road experience on motorcycle in Costa Rica let me know ✊🔥
I just got my bike license and I must say, that Ténéré is my dream bike! I'll have to put some miles in on my first one (an FZ6) before I upgrade to the Ténéré, but seeing you get it brings a smile to my face. :)
Dude! You were in my backyard on Divide Peak and you were alone! That is a big No No, you gotta take riding buddies up there! Good to see you getting dirty in the dirt!
All I can say is protect your hips when riding. I had a stupid MTB wreck a year ago and fractured my hip. No way did I ever expect that. If only I had just been wearing hip pads. Anyways, thanks for all you share with us!
When Matti Haapoja first said Potato Jet, you knew it you werent gonna waste your time seeing your content, been a fan since then! you deserve every achievement and goal you seek.
This channel is a perfect example of what TH-cam should be.
exactly 😀
This and th-cam.com/users/ninablangstrup and Pewdiepie... I wish yt did something to support authentic creators who give WAY more than they get back...
nah
This is a bozo comment it’s very bizarre to me 😂
You're welcome... Seriously.
😅😊❤
😂

Same…🤙🏼
That overthinking part is so true.. it's a curse man. So many projects I haven't finished yet..
Love your channel, Love how you and your wife do reviews together. Love your crew and how you have fun doing your reviews. Keep being you and doing what you do.
Your channel is the best. Thank you for posting such compelling, educational and most import, entertaining content. I've enjoyed it for years!
I relate SO HARD about the ADHD and the things you mentioned. The struggle is REAL!
You are amazing and such a beautiful family! Thanks for your work! Mark
No...THANK you sir!!! and the wifey!!! I enjoy your content very informative but also very entertaining and fun!!

Tribex 349/1000 owner here. keep up the good work man!
I was 12 when I started watching your videos, and now Im in university. Thankyou for the entertainment and knowledge you’ve given me over the years

Now that I live in LA I hope one day I get the chance to meet you! I’ve watched you for such a long time and you’ve been an inspiration to me.
You're welcome! Man, I was so worried when I saw the title in my notifications… I definitely wasn’t thinking about it being a graduation video at all!!
Love your videos. When you're riding in rough terrain, try hinging at the hips with the elbows up and head forward to help you soak up the bumps.
I don't do photography, but still for some reason I enjoy all these videos and positive vibe over here.
Love these videos Gene. All of them.
Love your videos so much Gene!! Great to hear you're doing well. : )
I kinda love this style of video just raw with lovely drone shots in the mountains.
You’re such a good dude! I’ve worked professionally in film/tv for over 15 years as an IATSE journeyman production sound mixer and I sincerely appreciate your channel. Keep up the good work Mr. & Mrs. Jet!🎉
Best youtuber seriously... Always positive and you have such a great vibe !!!

i love all of your videos and want to make videos like you,❤❤❤
I seriously would love a moto channel with you, but i guess its a hobby and it should stay a hobby. best wishes from germany!
Been loving what you share for years. Don’t disappear just yet 😊
How awesome can you be? Thank you for creating awesome contents, #mabuhay!
I love the fact that this feels like a more produced version of your second channel lol thank you for all your great work over the years
Bikes/motorbikes makes everything else better ride safe Sir. Waiting for more bike content
Between all the cool reviews, showcases, the footage of your beautiful wedding, and just you being you, the pleasure is OURS. Thank YOU sir!!
"Now I know what to use this shovel for.. " LOL!!
03:49 HHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH, man
That's why we loved your videos.
FYI for the dirt - knee PADS are not enough. Wear knee BRACES to protect against hyperextending your knee.
I really like your simple vlog styled videos
What can we say except You’re Welcome!!! 😇 😂
For real. Thank you man. You’ve been carrying for years now! Keep up the great work.
Love your work! Potato Jet was one of the first channels I ever subscribed to and now I never miss an episode. 😊❤
Amazing. Love that Ténéré! It’s the best bike out there. Mine’s currently waiting for the German winter to end.
Met you at the Korean BBQ restaurant in Gardena. At the time you had never posted content related to mountain biking.

Absolute goat you got me into cinematography I film videos now because of you thank you
Love your content so much thank you ❤❤
I am happy you are enjoying doing off-road on your motorcycle. We love off-roading in Costa Rica, so if you ever want an off-road experience on motorcycle in Costa Rica let me know ✊🔥
you bet. Just ordered the Small Rig x Potato Jet tripod, coming tomorrow!
You need a minibike my friend. Holler at me.
Thank you for teaching us Seriously!!!
Lots of love to you and Kari. Glad you didn't forget how to injure yourself Gene. Please stay safe 😁❤
I guess I have ADHD too lol I usually get hooked on things for a few months then switch to something else.
Instant smile. Man, you guys are the best of TH-cam. Have an amazing 2025!
Love you. Love your show. 😁
I just got my bike license and I must say, that Ténéré is my dream bike! I'll have to put some miles in on my first one (an FZ6) before I upgrade to the Ténéré, but seeing you get it brings a smile to my face. :)
