    I was blown away with how much this place looked and felt like Whistler! The big berms, the hero dirt, Malino Brdo was a really fun bike park.

    Malino brdo is gnarly, those roots on the lower part of Blizzard have claimed me OTB on more than one occasion. Agree about the mini whistler analogy from a Brit in Slovakia.

    You are boss, man! What you have done, with your millions of trails, has shown us amateurs - I've ridden a few places in the UK, that's about it, but I have loved it, and I was always excited by the prospect of mountain biking from a young age when my dad bought me my first Raleigh mountain bike, 15 gear I think! ie. riding a bike through the mountains... Just that prospect, of riding a bike wherever you feel like going, in the woods, that always excited me, and so to have done what you have done with a mountain bike is just absolutely mind-blowing, so Cheers!

    Hello, from a long-term subscriber from Bulgaria. You'll be amazed by how many of those chairlift/gondola bike parks are scattered here in Europe. Some smaller, some bigger. Even in a small country like Bulgaria we have several :)
    Writing this, because I visited Whistler a couple of years ago after watching so many YT videos worshipping it, and indeed it was great, definitely one of the top bike parks in the world and the area around the Sea to Sky highway was maybe one of the most scenic places I've ever seen, but it's a bit funny how you North Americans compare everything to it.
    At the same time there are at least 5 bike parks in Europe that are the same level, however without the media hype and mostly uncovered in English-speaking YT videos, but according to me are better because are not so overcrowded and better priced and better maintained (no so many breaking bumps as in Whistler)

    Brian, jumping is all in the hips. When you feel like your front tire is staying up in the air you have to drive your hips forward, or like loam ranger said stand-up to the jump, to get your back wheel up.

      I would assume after all these years and technical(including very dangerous) trails he's ridden - he knows that very well.
      Appeal of this channel is definitely the fact that there's a lot more of the casual riding that the average person can do as well.

    I still suck at jumping, too, and often do the same thing you were describing. Actually had a crash early this season where I landed in a manual (unintentionally), but kept going backwards and fell on my butt... not fun! Maybe we're just too old to learn new tricks!

      The "Turiec Trails" zone was the most fun for me. But it's also the most logistically tough. You'd need a guide and shuttles to make the most of it. Bike park is always just easier to show up and ride. instagram.com/turiec.trails/?hl=en

    Love the bike design th-cam.com/users/postUgkxHL1v1R3NE5x4KiYfyt8dnQmyNYz7qi5L and functionality. It is hard to align the front tired to center the disk brakes. The brake wheel touches the stationery side of the brake caliper and pad. I aired the tire up to 40 psi as the markings say 40-60psi. Left the house for a few hours and came back to an exploded innertube.All in all it seems to be a good bike. Have not ridden it yet though so that's the max of my knowledge. Update, put a new innertube made sure the tire was set properly and it did the same thing in under 20 minutes as second pic shows.
