Fantastic video Dave, some of the trails looked washed out and wet but you rode like lightning. The hang up on the first attempt at the big GAP looked intense, but after that you were on fire. Great jumps and fantastic shots mate. The MiniKong was really big, great performance and clean riding and jumping. Thanks for the ride and I hope the damage to the bike isn't too bad. Take care and ride on🤙
Thanks Christoph… yeah the Norco just needed a break bleed. Got lucky on the 1st attempt but knew I could get it. 1st time I’ve managed to get a drone shot in the middle of the video 😊 …. Worked well I think
@@cutlaps no …. On the last uplift I took it with me. It is in a shoulder bag about 150x150x70. I left the bike 100m up trail from the feature and set up the go pro and drone and then ran/walked up to the bike and hit the feature. Pack up, roll slowly down to the next feature and do it all again
Great video Dave. Some beautiful big hits and gutsy retake of the step up. Gotta say though, that little hump before it would put me off. Going too fast at that point to pump it.
Sick mate! Mini Kong seems a lot smoother than last time you hit it. And you came pretty close to death on the big step up. Was the outro below the pro line drop there for a reason 🤨. Sick video and can't wait for next week
Thanks Max ... yeah they have made the lander higher and steeper on the mini kong. "close to death" is probably is overstating the situation but it definitely could've been worse. Yes i did the 1st part of the outro below & 2nd part on top as I was supposed to be towed into it by my mate ..... & hopefully will happen next time 👊
That was epic🤘 the drone shots were amazing as was the riding. While I didn’t want to see your enduro bike have a mechanical it was good when the big bike came out. Just wondering if you prefer the big jump trail or the rocky tech ones? You ride both so well but I’ve been meaning to ask . Great video Dave 🤙
I like both to be honest .... once upon a time it was all about the medium to big ish jumps but the tech lines have come up to be on par ..... thanks for your comment Mick 👊
G'day DM MTB great video's 👍 I subscribed to your channel - what's the chances; you doing Greenville's Bike Park Trail Jumps on a eMountain Bike? as I've just purchased the Giant 2022 Trance X Advanced E+0 EMTB she weighs like 23kg for my 60th birthday Great Bike I like it, but a little heavy for the Jumps? for the beginner kook like me (Jump Avoidance) I may buy an analoge M-Bike for the Jumps January 2023? I'm new to this Sport. I'm just a surfer - elit ocean paddler.🍺🍺🍺
Hey Phil, 1stly let me thank you for subscribing 🙏 I am going down to Greenvalleys next weekend for the GV Block Party weekend & will be taking my Norco sight. The Ebikes I've been riding aren’t mine so having to give them back to get another. I hope to get a sight VLT on Tuesday so may take it as well and give it a go. I'm not in the market to get an ebike but had an offer to demo some for a shop. Greenvalleys, I think still clinics which I highly recommend! Good for you getting into the sport at 60. I stared at 44 and am now 51 so it is surreal to see how far I've come and more over the support for my channel from all ages.
@@DMMTB Thanks for the Reply Dave, it's a fun sport when the wave are blow-out slowly going faster each time on the same tracks with small jumps. I've been riding the Nerang tracks on the Goldie at the moment. Looking forward to your next Greenvalleys video on the Ebike. Go hard Dave and have Fun.
Nice job David - next drop is PROLINE!
Yep for sure 😉
Nice riding mate. Some of those features look pretty serious
Cheers mate 🤟

@@DMMTB It was fantastic Dave the drone shot looks great🙌. Nice work👌
Holy crap. I'm halfway through and my heart just skipped a beat when you cased that step up. I thought you were going down big time!
Nice video mate. Good to see some drone shots in there as well
Yeah got lucky with it that's for sure 😝
@@cutlaps yep it was my 1st time showing drone shots in the middle of the video
@@DMMTB were you riding with the drone in a back pack or something?

Incredible video 👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks 🙏🏼 … where are you watching from?
6:45. Close call mate, another awesome vid. Loved the intro too very moody/engaging.
Then nek 2 minute 8:27 ya get it, so sick
Mate 10/10 for the camera work and riding.
Thanks Mate … yeah was pretty stoked on how this one came out 🙏🏼
Such a Maddog Dave. Fair play hitting the big stuff mate. The drone shots were mint👌🏼
Thanks Jules 🙏🏼 ….. stepping up slowly
Very cool mate. Great skills to do those jumps.🤙🤙🤙
Thanks Donald .... yeah my jumping game has come on in leaps and bounds in the last 6 months ... Thanks for watching
Nice vid Dave. Great save on the step up.
got lucky on that one Julius 😊
Great drone shots as always
Thanks Harry

Thanks Friedo …. I knew I could get it. I was focused on the take off so didn’t notice the little hump 🤣
Awesome progression Dave. I just love seeing your confidence grow and your riding getting better every video.
Cheers Darren .... the pro line drop has my name on it for next time 🤘

Nice riding Dave 🤘 .. I liked the mission impossible like music for the suspense on the step up 🤙.
Thanks Phil ..... Yep I though it was appropriate 👊
what a drop at the end, 3 meters is a big one! Great riding as usual!
Thanks Oreste ….. the 4-5m one is next on my list 😞
@@DMMTB with proper time and no rush, definitely possible!
@@OresteCiotoli will need a tow in for sure but confident I can get it
Awesome work Dave. That was heaps good 🤙🏼 that case on the step up made me pucker for you 😂 thought you were otb for sure 🤯
I was puckered as well 😂 ... got lucky with that one
Nice edit Dave 🤟
Thanks Col 👊

Is it a nicer landing now?
yeah about 1m has been added at the start of the lander
