  • Continuing down the mountain we next stumble upon Meat Draw, and wow is it a keeper! The lighting may be a bit harsh and we may have been on a vacation-faff pace rather than a race pace, but this one is too fun to ignore. Haven't seen many videos of this one before and it easily made my top 3 for the whole trip. Hope you enjoy!

      Oh gawd no, please, if no one built another flow trail I'd be happy - keep the old school/jank trails alive ;-)

      I like riding flow. Most people probably do. But, the janky tech stuff is kinda the foundation of MTB and really makes you use every bit of your body mechanics and problem solving skills on the bike. It’s all good to me and these types of videos are gold in the age of redbull rocket launch air contests. (Also gnarly!)

    Coming here after Remy's upload of this trail yesterday. Wow. Seeing your pov as one of my favorite riders to watch and that I consider to be one of the better riders that I watch on tech trails, it is wild to see how talented Remy really is and how gnarly this trail is!

    Another great looking trail, really love the old school natural trails. Agreed, that a lot of the times if you hike down to look up at a feature, sometimes you don't ride it because it looks so big vs just checking it from atop. Think that last trail, Gravitron was one of Stevie Smiths favourites. Seems like you had an awesome vaca.

      Well, you can start with some basic stuff. How to progress from simple stuff to more advanced. I don't know if that's what you are aiming to achieve with this channel. Me, as a novice rider, I'm far away from the level of trails that you ride, however you explaining those features, helps me understand how you tackle them. On the flip side, I do think that if you spend some time explaining some simpler features (small rock gardens/roots), body position etc. it will be very interesting.
      Just something to think about if you want to grow the channel in that direction.
