Love the mix of flow and tech on these trails. Those turns around 2:48 on Rock-It....my oh my! Big kudo's to Robert for rolling in and keeping his head straight on Car Wreck!
Yeah man! Definitely hit me up when you're in the area, and we'll rip some laps. Yah! Those turns are a hoot! And Robert...wow! We were biting our nails just waiting for disaster. That gnar garden is known for sending people OTB.
Rad!!!! I love the energy and the thrill...Heck I was just out there on Lynx and Rock-it trying to dial in a new shock I bought used. I later realized the shock had no rebound damper ....
Talk about GoPro effect. I hiked this trail years ago with my sister and her husband. I know, with my own eyes, how steep Car Wreck is, I bet it's Sick on a bike. Great vid, and yeah, the Escape Artist is SO lucky to come out of that without a scratch.
Ha! You said it. TBH, I am always surprised how steep it is every time I come into that last rock garden. The Escape Artist...Now that I think of it, I should've called him The Magician. Ha!
Hey Alan, is that a wrist brace on your right arm? If so, what brand? I broke my wrist a few years back and looking for some extra protection when I go to the bike park. Great content! It's keeping me sane in this dismal New England winter!!
Ha! Glad to help. It is a wrist brace/guard. It’s the Mobius X8. It costs more than basic wrist braces but way worth the cost. It’s held up great in crashes and also adds progressive support. And it’s been beat up and has held up like a champ.
If I didn't film for my channel, I'd use one in places like Aliso, but it'd make my content unwatchable. So when there are no bells in the crew, we do a lot of shouting out.
To do all them trails takes a lot of climbing and it doesn't look like you guys are riding the lightest bikes ever... ;-) Any plans for a "1 year bike check" video on the splendiferous Nomad? Would love to see it...
You pretty much gotta catch me on the trail. I always carry some stickers with me. If you really want one though, you can go here: mtb-alan-crew-series.creator-spring.com/listing/mtb-alan-crew-series?product=794 It's like five bucks tho. 😕
As soon as that guy said "I guess I am going for it", I closed my eyes lmao. Car Wreck is gnar.
LOL! We were pretty skerd.
So many hikers on the legal trails on the weekends. Kudos for not running anyone over.
Ha! No doubt. But they are still mixed-use trails, so we all gotta make room. 🤘🏾
Best video out on all of these trails, me and my group from San Diego are coming up that way to hit it 😎
Yew! 🙏🏾
Robert he is a full of energy to taking a gnarly trail.
🤘🏾

Oh dang! No rebound is no good. 😆

SkyPark is going to be open this weekend. Hope to see you there Alan!
That'd be rad.
LOL that's the way to stretch ur comfort zone 2 a new LEVEL 🎂😎
💯
Good times. Glad we got to take a couple laps. See you again 🤟🤘🔥⚡️
Heck yeah, Craig! Glad nobody crashed. LOL!
Oh man, that save from Robert in the gnar garden was incredible! Aliso is looking chunky these days! ✌🏼🤟🏼
Yeah man! I dunno how he escaped that. It's definitely more chunky when the rain washed out all the dirt.
That was chicken oriental! (Mental)
I didn't pay attention to the introductions and I thought Blair was Brett Tippie
LOL! A day with Tippie would be epic!

Thanks for another banger Alen. I dont know if you've already shared your camera settings and equipment but inquiring minds want to know!
Thanks! I did a vid on it a bit ago, and my settings are all pretty much the same. th-cam.com/video/bH68ci2I9yY/w-d-xo.html
man what is that jingle coming through?
That was Blair's bell. Good for letting hikers know we're coming. Standard practice on mixed-use trails.
Nice I've never heard it in one of your videos before and I had wondered if it was something like that or something was just rattling just right.

Thanks for the fast and super complete answer keep on having Rad days.

Fun Fact: A "Have a rad day" sticker has made its way to a ski helmet!
Yes!
To do all them trails takes a lot of climbing and it doesn't look like you guys are riding the lightest bikes ever... ;-) Any plans for a "1 year bike check" video on the splendiferous Nomad? Would love to see it...
Bike check on the Nomad...now that's a splendiferous idea! I'll put it in the queue. Thanks for the suggestion.
Hey Alan!
I'm collecting stickers from my favorite MTBrs, where can I get yours?
You pretty much gotta catch me on the trail. I always carry some stickers with me.
