Full Pull Down Whistler From The Top Of the Gondola!

- During crankworx, I was supposed to be in the whistler village by 2pm, but I tried to sneak in one more run when I found myself at the top of the Gondola with less than 20 minutes to get down.
Keep in mind a bunch of trails had been closed for one reason or another over the week due to ongoing Crankworx events, work on the new Fitzsimmons chair, and trail maintenance. I'm not a Whistler local, and had I thought about this a bit more, I would have taken a much different and direct route, but hindsight is 20/20. For example, Angry Pirate had not been opened the previous runs, so I assumed it was not opened all this week. I would have also taken original sin instead of freight train.

I love that the struggle to get to work on time during rush hour is a universal reality in all jobs
There's a certain Ludacris song that fits these moments
Phil coming to the Nobl booth like he hasn't just absolutely rampaged their wheelset. True testament to how good these rims are.
Haha, Traversing the village was the hardest part of the journey!
Dude, watching Phil absolutely wreck trails is one of the reason's I bought NOBL's. They are bomb proof, I have had so many big impacts and square edge hits and they don't flinch. They stay true to boot!
When your the fastest on the trail and nobody can touch you then you get past by Phil doing Mach F$%@🤣🤣
Man you freaking flying!!
The bottom half of the lap when you were really able to open up was some of the most impressive riding I've seen. Soooo insanely fast!
He looks stupid fast to me!!
Phil is a lot faster than most people think, camera really doesn’t do justice, next trip you need to come down and tour Arkansas 🔥💯🇺🇸
Mtb prodigy is back lol
It definitely DOES do it justice. He was FLYING DOWN
lol everyone knows Phil rips.
He's one of the only YTers who can actually ride proper dh.
Did Arkansas ever build any mountains to go with all those Wal-Mart trails?
I'll get down there eventually, as a rider its not #1 on my bucket list but as a trail builder I'm very intrigued with some of the things I've seen
Man, I was watching that and felt my head going from side to side, just like watching the bobsled at the Winter Olympics! Dude, I have been subbed to your channel for about 7 years now and your riding is always fun to watch. Been out of riding the last 2 years... life got in the way a bit but I am getting my mojo back to riding. Ordered a new bike and have been binging on my riders I've subbed to over the years. Thanks for your inspiration! I'm 51 this year but never felt more like a kid watching this stuff, so cool.
I was whole assed leaning back and forth there at the end
my glutes and quads are screaming from my couch as I braced for each landing, turn, and gap -- not too mention my lungs from holding my breath for 15 minutes. Epic rip down!
Totally blew by that guy on the fire road when he probably thought he was cruising! You are seriously CRAZY fast!!
That fireroad is soooo sketchy- kind of wish i had a speedometer on me
@@SkillsWithPhil Back in the 90's, I'd ride my GT LTS (full suspension - Back spring and front Rock shock with 2 inches of travel! 🤣) down fireroads like that at Stevens Pass (Washington) and that bike was a glorified 10 speed (with 24 gears) with my head over the bars! Just waiting for a OTB moment. I'm STILL riding it now but upgrading to a bike made in the 2020's now so I should do better!
I don't know if I blinked throughout this entire video. Dude... how do you not lose it going through those trees and rocky terrain. I mean.. damn this is sick riding.
This video is a great reminder of how amazing your abilities really are.
One of the more fun vids to watch. Top to bottom, just GO!
Thanks greg :)
Thank you so much for posting this! My 6 & 7 year olds have been watching every one of your videos for a few years now, and we were at the top of Whistler today, watched people start riding down, saw riders under our gondola on the way down, and watched people ending at the bottom. This video was great for our kids to see what that all looks like from your point of view, and then see you ride up almost next to our hotel.. they really enjoyed seeing this, knowing you and Nick were here only a short time ago. Keep posting great varieties of videos!
Glad you folks enjoyed it, Whistler is top notch.
This type of video may not perform as well as others, but I miss this type of video from the TH-camr riders. Just nice quality footage of solid runs. I would love to see more single run videos for the sounds, commentary, and beautiful scenery. Thanks for this one!
Oh man. I swear, I was on the edge of my seat for that amazing ride. You are one crazy dude.
That rocky section was GNARLY
WoW Phil, fantastic run... You can shred like crazy when you're late.. Thanks for uploading... Great run man!
“We’ve waited in line at Highland for longer” such sad, true words 😢😂
Honestly i could not believe that we only waited ~36 minutes given how long the line looked. Oddly enough, i dont mind waiting. Talking to people in the lift line is enjoyable
Just by happenstance, I started watching this video with about 20 minutes before I needed to leave for a meeting. I honestly didn't look at the length of the video before I started watching it (but Phil's videos are usually about that long so I thought I'd be safe). It was great to experience nearly the same "time anxiety" as Phil did. It certainly made watching the video that much more fun! Keep up the good work Phil!
Falling down like a rolling stone - great and scary at the same time
This has to be my favorite video of yours. It had me on the edge of the seat more then the latest movies.
good god I know you're fast but this was damn impressive!
that was a freaking race run. unbelievable
Phil, I watch hundreds of mtb videos. I’ve been riding hard for over 40 years. (Santa Cruz native). From just this video, you might be one of the smoothest and maybe fastest riders I’ve ever seen. Thank you. Liked, subscribed, shared and all notifications. Ok, time to watch more!
I loved the race against the clock format of this video. Great example of how a slightly different concept for a riding video can be super compelling. Not to mention the way you sped through some of those completely blown out tech trails...
These videos really keep me interested in cycling again after not riding for over 3years. When that bike finally comes, definitely going to let loose😁
Im missing all the whistler content on TH-cam i wanna go back so badly. Phil you are always the most impressive to watch on TH-cam man your pov is always insane and somehow surpasses the gopro effect.
🔥Phil's Whistler Vids are always so EPIC. But this one is on an entirely different level! 🔥
Duuuuuuude, that was bookin 📕! Fire 🔥 run. Bonus that you made it in time!
Love how busy u r and how u r making fun out of it
The stamina needed to do a full pull down the whole mountain is crazy! We started down from the 2nd gondola, and went down easier trails than you did, and I was so gassed out that I had to stop a few times. For me the hard part was the g-forces in the berms, it makes you feel like you weigh twice as much. I rented a Commencal full DH bike with 200mm travel and no dropper post, and I quickly realized I wasn't conditioned to stand up going downhill for 20+ min straight.
That was epic. Loved this video slammed packed with action lol
Watching you go this fast is so entertaining and thrilling. Great vid
Insane speed Phil!! 😱🔥👀
How fast can we go? Phil: YES !
You are a sick rider Dude.
After all the hauling ass and no Phil giggles, we need the Phil giggles!
I hesitate to call it this, but this an interesting concept for a video. It was borne by necessity, but it really worked. Great riding, Phil. I had just watched Nic's video with his ride over through Whistler to the contest, so this was interesting..
Well that's impressive. Thank you for the free entertainment
Awesome stuff, new sub! Man, you make that look so easy!
This is what they meant when they coined the phrase "break neck speeds". Holy crap you are amazing man. I was watching this and swaying my body back and forth as if I was on that bike along with you LOL. I'd love to know how fast in Mph you were going down that one fire road too.
The level of fitness is impressive.
It’s always a good day when Phil posts
Thanks 🙏
Fuck got all stressed watching that 😂 Then arrive and not even sweating 😵💫 You’re an amazing rider to watch, love the videos, they all make me wanna ride and push even more 👌🙏 Looks so “easy” great flow with that crazy speed
I see Phil risking life and limb to be a judge for a contest. Phil,” Just another day riding Whistler”!!!
EXCELLENT CONTROL AND MANEUVERABILITY AT SPEED
“Holy f*ck” count 12. “Oh my god” count 15. That a-line piece at the end really freaked me out! Damn, what a great rider!
17:13 "planes are flying low today" - those guys standing there
Sick .... you could really 'feel' that time pressure in this one ......
Nice trails Phill awesome ridung skills 🤘
Like a BOSS!!!....still got that downhill mojo phil
The most exciting trail video I ever saw...
Slow Clap sir... that was insane!!!
What a beautiful trail
OMG Phil! Killin It!!
Coming from a motocross background (20 min from RedBud) I am amazed what these MTB's can do in the hands of riders like Phil. Would be like coming down with Eli Tomac smh. Thanks for the great vids.
Impressive!
Absolutely flying
So sick!!!
That's a redemption rip, go Phil!
Beast mode! Phil is so fast
That was sick. The timing gave it a great narrative. Almost watched like Fabio Wibmer video!
12:39 I crashed doing that exact same thing after a run my bars turned and I slid for almost 30 feet on my head and shoulder with no padding. Had to get a new helmet and had horrible road rash so I don’t do that anymore haha
NICE Phil! One of your best videos in a while.
Wow, thanks!
what a run!!
Love the videos man. You da man!
great run bro
Phil in a rush?! Watch out people!
crazy man, crazy!
What a savage 🫡
absolutely beatiful forest
Your sick riding just earned my sub.
Gosh darn. Your one bad ass dude
Damn dude. Impressive
Freaking awesome!
Cool run.
“We’ve wait in line at highland for longer” so real. That chair is sooo slow
Phil is narrating his descent and just having a conversation with his followers while bombing the trail, meanwhile the only conversation I'd be having is with God pleading with him to get me down to the bottom unharmed! Nice work.
That. Was. Epic.
When you cut into A Line, I definitely clenched up a couple of times. You were ripping through that section.
Oh yeah, the tell tales of flowy boy!
phil there needs to be some edit of you made because going down these insanley difficult trails at very very high speeds is just mind blowing
Very cool video
The vertical drop at whistler never ceases to amaze me
Good lord that was fast! I was puckering the whole time. I would have worn out a set a brake pads if I tried this LOL
cruising through the slope so graciously must be noted
Phil my dude I thought you were going to the hospital a few times. That was nuts.
Haha, Glad i kept you on edge!
Showed up to the booth like a Boss
Boy goes fast
Beautiful ride, i envy you!
Oh my god... That was fast. 😂
Damn dude you can ride!!!!!!!!!!!!
My palms were sweaty watching this
I got second-hand adrenaline from watching this.
What a rush, just watching this.
Whistler is amazing
man i am so amazed of the the near death expirees that wasnt a big deal to you like dam
Me here, sitting in Florida, where the best “downhill” we have is at Mount Dora. lol. Which is like 100 feet of drop. lol
I plan on driving to Jarrod’s place in Georgia soon.
Damn Phil you know how to roll
that was so gnarly lol
that was stressful 😅
I'm usually really good about being punctual when I agree on a time but I really underestimated how long the upper half of the gondola ride took. I was super relieved to find out out i wasn't the last person at the booth!
You are good guy
