  • Beth was a little nervous for me. Our friend James from the Squamish guiding company RIDE BC ( www.ridebc.ca ) put in three years of hard work building an incredible new trail called Pamplemousse. It's a single black trail with some spicy double-black features in the Alice Lake area of Squamish, British Columbia. It was quite the ride. Check it out!

    Congrats to the trail builders, and props to you for hitting that drop!

  • @maplic
    @maplic 4 ปีที่แล้ว +81

    When you struggle on features, definitely do more shots of you pushing your bike back up the feature. The angle of you versus your bike versus the bike against the vertical rocks and trees REALLY puts it into a better perspective. Leaning your bike over into that absolute pit looks petrifying...

    • @bryanmurphy26
      @bryanmurphy26 4 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Agreed. That first feature didn't look steep until he was trying to walk back up it, and that drop had me nervous.

    That is a great new trail James. I just couldn’t get it together for that drop. A few of the berms are super tight and steep. Such a thrill to commit to and let go of the brakes.
    Cheers all!

  • @fillfreakin2245
    @fillfreakin2245 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    So jealous that you guys are riding already. Just a few more weeks before riding starts around Rossland (at lower elevations). That looks like a nice flowy trail. I don't know if it's the gopro or that I'm getting better (a bit of both hopefully), but that didn't really seem like a black, except for the big drop, but I wouldn't rate a whole trail based on one feature that's optional.
    I totally agree that it's nice to have downhill trails where you hardly have to touch the brakes. The optimal downhill trail in my mind is one where you don't really need much braking (once you know the trail) and where you don't need much pedaling. I hate trails where you have to burn up your brakes, not just for the trail wear, but also because I've paid in sweat for every foot of elevation I had to climb (on most days), and I don't want to waste it going down. A trail where you're forced to use your brakes all the time tells me that elevation drop could have been better used making the trail longer and/or with more fun turns and features.

    • @TheLoamRanger
      @TheLoamRanger  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Agreed! The trail itself has a number of features that a rider has to commit to, which I would say puts it at a black. On that run through, I missed a couple of jumps that a rider at my level (not a noob, but certainly not a pro) could do, but might take a second/third run to really nail.
      I definitely need to get back to Rossland!

    when a friend builds a trail, YOU RIDE IT and find out that your friend sucks at trailbuilding and the features get destroyed when you shred'em. This is what happens to me all the friggin time! My friend f'ing sucks at trail building but this is good!

      Get a bike with multiple gears but only rear if you can. And make sure you get one that has good enough travel in the fork/shock. Start small and work your way up, otherwise you may hurt yourself. Good to see that there are new riders all the time, have fun out there!

      Dmitry Molotov Thanks man! Literally about 30 minutes after that comment I was talking to my dad about wanting to get into MTB and he showed me his old “Gary Fisher” bike and said that most of the parts were aftermarket and worth a lot. Plus, it has gears in only the back, but I didn’t count how many...
