Pretty crazy how Sam has the skill and ability to make riding a bike look tame and almost boring while doing at exactly 1 million mph and sliding around an off camber corner with a barbed wire fence for a safety net.
I asked him once how he chooses when to wear a full face/knee pads and he said, "sometimes if the trails get a little gnarly" and so what I take from that is....unless rules require it, he doesn't think this stuff or windrock or most places he's riding straight up flat out are gnarly LOL LOL. Freakin legend.
I was noticing the same thing. That's a technique I need to add to my toolbox. Normally I focusing on using front and back brake with no skid, but to get the bike rotated at higher speed... a whole other level.
Me: "Hey Sam, there's this super gnarly barbed wire fence on the exit of this turn. I've just gotta climb over it to get the shot." Sam: " No worries bud, don't plan on hitting it." 🤘
So the#MTB session of the #VITALRAW guy. Sam Hill yuor in the so. Western in Australia woouu not crachet in yuor #mountainbiking the legen rider bike 🤟🤙🗣️yyaaaSicke. Saulds of Chile 🇨🇱
I must be getting old but I prefer a silent freehub. That nest of hornets in the rear axle is rediculous. All of my bikes are quiet except my freerider which has a click click not a continuous drone from a swarm!
Did you see the latest Vital Gear Show? - th-cam.com/video/WGawmO7ELSE/w-d-xo.html
Nice barbed wire fence on the outside of that fast off camber corner
I built a lower section of the track which avoids the barbed wire fence but heck it’s cool seeing him drift that firebreak
He looks so strong and composed on the bike, my god
Looks like he is on a casual walk in the park. :O
The true sound of speed and best raw video . He is just too good 👌
its like watching an artist, incredible skill on display here, two wheel drifting, i love watching this aussie.
Probably the best Sam Hill video since Earthed 5. Well done.
Sam the man! Best drifts and line choice we might ever see on a mountain bike.

Im smelling a 4th EWS title. . . Go for it Sam. . .
No rider feels the terrain like Sam.....so smooth!
Just imagine, you are heading down your favourite trail, nice and slow, and you hear this guy coming up from behind.
Sam Hill suspension is on point! Really liking how it works..
Sam is a rear wheel steer MX bloke on a Enduro. Rare and brilliant to watch.
He doesn't even look like he's trying, yet he's probably covering ground faster than anyone to have ridden there before.
I will wait two hours to see Sam Hill ride!
That first drop on that huge rock face is steep! It sure looks steeper off camera.
Perfect front brake control
The fact he does this on flats is amazing
Ah, Australia, where a barbed wire fence directs you at every high-speed turn
best flat pedal mountain biker!!!
Sam's still faaast!! LEGEND
He's my favorite!!!!!🤓🤘🔥
Sam Hill is the man.
Hill on another level!
What a beautiful thing to wake up to after it snowed all night
2:57 It's-a-Me, Mario!
Sam hill is a Best 🤘
Goat! Gotta be.
Just like the vital interview, little giggles from Brett
Ahhh that old chestnut, the how I think I ride meme
The whole trail looks awesome but that road gap especially 😍
Only a handful of people to have hit it too
Giving the people what they want
Sam Hill & Chris Kovarik should do a film together. Same riding style. Driftin Fast, Flat out & Flat pedals. And friggen Aussies. 🤘🤘🤘.
Sam hill the John Wick of Mountain biking
Goat
How does he get any grip on the loose flast turns??
Magic, that’s the only reason I can think of
@@MTBSoja lol.
i like his style of using those flat pedals
No knee pads necessary for this casual ride! 😎🔥🤘
Precise like a sniper!
All I have to say is this…..FUCK YEAH
Amazing ride
this guy look fast, maybe he could try and race in EWS one day
Foot out, flat out!
Wondering over how many snakes he rolled in his career
😂
I think they call them danger noodles down there
Most of the snakes look like sticks down here. You just plow over them. Which pisses them off haha

Freakin legend.
How does any one give that a thumbs down?
some other EWS racers maybe... ;-)
“I am a patient boy. I wait, I wait, I wait”
GUILTY!
Interesting how he uses so much rear brake for control. Notes taken.

What’s not to like 👍 , seriously 🤘.
2:58 think he hit a power-up
What if to qualify for the EWS you had to use flats?
Dans le monde du VTT il y a deux légendes : Nicolas Vouilloz et Sam Hill !!!
Only guy were handguards look good
Fast is the only cool
Is that the nukeproof horizon v2 hub?? My God
King Hill!
Whooop whoopie!!! 🕺🏻⚡️🚲💨
Righteous
Any one know what hubs he is running??
🤘
FFS ... that is annoyingly fast in those conditions. Just how, how ?
New shock from BlackBox ?
Fucking hell... I would have been wrapped up in that barbed wire, no question...
Me: "Hey Sam, there's this super gnarly barbed wire fence on the exit of this turn. I've just gotta climb over it to get the shot."
Sam: " No worries bud, don't plan on hitting it."
🤘
😎👍👍👍
He's ridonculous.
Why all the skidding?
Rotate the bike faster round the corners, like a skandi flick
Free Style Fred

Idol...
Why the hell is this on at 4am?
What type of Rear Hub is that?
Last I recall Sam rode Mavic rims and hubs
guy RIPS it through those trails
All I want is for Sam Hill to race downhill again
He doesn’t want to make the good dh racers cry
@@felixhayes4151 if you listen to the Vital MTB podcast released last week in the interview he answers that... literally the last sentence.
Fast boi
he said once you know what is drifting? is what I do on corners
Speed & finesse fused into one! That barbed wire corner made me cringe...
RAD
Woe
He's like the bicycle version of Casey Stoner, Mick Doohan or Mat Mladin.
Some big huck to flat but the bike never bottomed out. Impressive
yea, if I would set up my bike like that, after one run, I'll go home with broken wrists and ankles.
You maniac!
If the camera makes things seem less steep, then some of these lines must be more than 90degrees.
Goddamn!
jacy showed him everything he knows
You showed Connor everything he knows 🤘
Fucking Beast
never saw him on a ht, shredding the shit out of it!!! come on sam!!!
He’s on the nukeproof giga
Pengelley. There's a Cornish name!
We made it to Australia 👍
Ik this guy it is my friend that does motocross,s friend I met him before
I must be getting old but I prefer a silent freehub.

To each his own. I-9 Hydras are music to my ears.
Who in the SAM HILL is responsible for all this??? 2:12..... He don't care....
Flat pedals wins..
Boosh
Loosey goosey
Christ on a bike!!

Amazing rider and harsh terrain, but my God do my local trails look so much more fun (and moist) then this dry wasteland.
This guy don't even have to pedal to be fast
