- I'm back riding MTB slopestyle contests again! - Copenride Denmark is my first slopestyle contest after about 4 years of not competing, but can I still keep up with the worlds best MTB freeriders on the FMB world tour, watch and find out!
I ride the huge Red Bull Copenride slopestyle contest in Copenhagen, Denmark and it is my first FMB world tour contest i've entered in about 4 years, so with my wild card entery confimred I make my over to Denmark to shred as hard as possible on this crazy course. Unfortunately the wind and rain was very hard to deal with and we ended up having a lot of problems with the course and the amount of practise we got but in the end the contest went on and it was sick to be apart of. I haven't seen a lot of these guys for ages and to hang out with all of them again has been the best thing after a year or more of lockdown in the UK! I was out here riding my Haibike custom dirt jump bike on this huge track with massive gap jumps, step downs and quarter pipes and I filmed the whole video on GoPro HERO 9!
I hope you enjoy the video!

Love how everyone is in full face helmets with all the protection on and then there's Sam with a little bucket on his head in a T-shirt
MAX!!
Prob only one who puts his bike together with a hammer and a brick too
@@thebr0wnhornet but atleast it works🤣
Because hes an absolute beast
Sam's precision in doing tricks in any place and any condition is absurd, allied with a huge know how in crashing, he always eject at the right moment being safe.
Considering you were playing it relatively safe, you definitely still kicked it with the big guns.
facts
Cheers dude!!
@@SamPilgrim so ready to see you start sending double flips!
🤩🤩🤩🤩
Sam is such an OG in this :D Everyone else with the guccied out bikes and the fullface helmets and Sam just rides, casually talking to the cam during his first run doing all of them tricks^^
What’s a guccied out bike? hope parts?
😂👍
@@AxlMetcalf probs just fancy, expensive parts and all that
Cool to think of how many riders he could be competing against soon that are in the sport because of him. Its a young man's game for sure. Just showing up and leaving uninjured is a win.
@@Losovox what you said, since jump bikes don't have a lot of parts they usually go for the shiniest most expensive stuff their sponsors have. Sam just changed his BB which is pretty sick^^ He also painted his forks with a can :D
Sam, I'm not much for commenting on youtube but I've been watching your videos for awhile and felt like I should. The fact that you went to a top level event like that on 3 hours of sleep and did that well is amazing. Don't let the results deter you in any way, shape or form. Your skill level and composure will get you thru when the young bucks nervousness gets to them. Keep up the competition and I sincerely believe you'll surprise yourself at how well you do!
Thanks man!! 🤙
Ditto!! It's truth, you are an amazing and gifted rider. We appreciate your videos and the love and respect you show the sport - don't let this get to you!!
Totally agree, respect Sam 👊
Legend mate , can’t wait to see you learning new tricks again ! Gonna be sweet
*Gonna be epic
@sampilgrim so ready to send more double flips
You can still do things that most of us dream of doing, the things you come up with are insane sometimes, but always entertaining, and your excitement for life is infectious!
Glad you like the vids dude! :)
Welcome back Sam!! It doesn't matter if you didn't get to the finals, you've still got it!🤘🏻😎 Btw, can't wait to see some street videos of that amazing city!
The mental preparation for an athletic competition like this must be huge! To try and maintain one's focus and be ready to perform under pressure. Amazing athletes!
🤙🤙
Good effort man! Close call on the qualify, must have been a fun trip either way. Strange course setup.
You rode well, Sam, and you had fun, so a win-win, for sure. And hey, they went to all that effort to construct those drops and ramps and everything, great that you got to ride them and let us come along for the ride. Just get some more sleep next time and you'll be hauling home a trophy as the best bowler in all the league. :)
Listening to the young bucks reactions when you send the big quarter, shows you still got it ✊
totally!
Sams a goat he doesn’t need to win anything he’s already won at life 💪
TRUTH!
Don't be so hard on yourself man. You are a legend! Just you being at the contest, doing your thing, is so bad ass.
There's hundreds of awesome riders to follow, but none are as interesting as Pilgrims. He's definitely the best personality out there in MTB.
Love that you got a staircase of doom in there!
Wow Sam, that was such a raw and genuine experience story. Thanks for sharing this with us.
Still and always will be my favourite. Nobody can match your level of enthusiasm and energy and that’s what its all about.
I admire your spirit and determination to have a good time even in less than ideal conditions.
You definitely seem like the glue of excitement that holds the riders together.
TO THE SKY 🤙🤙
Keep doing the comps man! We love seeing these events
these young guns were looking up to you when they were still learning barspins! keep at it man.... win or lose, its good content, and with 1.5 million subs, you know those sponsors are happy! Here's to two million!
So glad you are riding competitions again. Its so fun to watch.
That’s a good video bud,can really see what’s involved with that camera,one of your best videos I’ve seen ! Keep up the good work man thanks for sharing !!
Sam your a legend and legends never get old, you give me much inspiration to keep peddling at 57,,cheers mate
Looking forward to Seeing you do the AUDI NINES in a couple weeks!
Good luck 👍
I imagine most people like Sam, start out as a kid having fun. Learning tricks, and loving it. As they progress, they end up in competitions. and in the beginning they start out doing the competition just for fun. But as they get better, competitions become a career, until they basically retire from it. Sam here, has traversed that, and has been able to keep doing what he loves, and now he is doing competitions for fun, and loving every minute of it. Amazing.
Really dope to see Sam back in a contest. I imagine it can be quite challenging to get back into it, but can only get easier after the first one.
I love it when you're competing! I love the videos where we see the community, other riders and how the tricks develop. Those young 'uns love you! You were just unlucky to drop it in the same place on both runs. If one run was clean you'd have been in the finals! You did an amazing job and should no way be deterred
Thanks for bring us with you Sam.
Gutted you did not get to the final. 100% sure you will return like the champion that you are
This was a really honest and great video man! You're awsome!
Your the man we want to see at these competitions!
Seeing you in the morning, tired and kinda reconsidering your choices was so much refreshing... don't get me wrong, I love your constant excitement, but this, this is what makes you much more "human" :D
Well done Sam....you would've qualified with a bar spin...so that tells you how good you are and how much you can keep with the others .... and let's face it ..i competed in international power lifting events ....and think there was only 2 or 3 that went as it should ....and as a 50 year old mtb that's only just starting bmx skate parking ...your an inspiration...keep it going ...
The longer I watch your channel, the more impressive you appear, both as a rider and a person.
It was EPIC meeting u at the event and seeing u ride that good🔥🤙
Those big jumps you can feel thru the screen! Brave characters required
You and Max always best at it 💪💪
You got nothing to prove Sam ur a legend of mountain biking. And what you’ve done/continue to do does so much for the sport. Was sick to see u back in contests but you gotta do what makes u happy man👊🏼
Mate! 14th in a group of probably the top slopestyle riders in the world is bloody awesome. And it was just a small miss on the list trick too. Nothing to be worried about. Go shred the next comp and you'll smash it like the Audi 9's!
I was in there watching you ride.
You did a really Great job.
PS. thanks for the picture;)
You are a total legend. It's just one comp. You ledge, we salute you.
The moment I would never thought would happen again Sam pilgrim back on the slope style seen there’s life in the old dog yet watch out Max Fredrickson and Matt Matt Jones the old master is back Crankworks Has it got your name on it go get them tiger For people who don’t know Sam was ranked number one in the world for awhile
So sick to see the Pilg back at it! Killing it mate 🔥🔥🔥
That was a great vid. Great insight into the reality of a comp situation. I can barely talk after that little amount of sleep. Keep up the shredding 👊
When you say young sport...old age...31....made me feel like a grandpa lol...that's why you are one of the best you test and go beyond boundaries 👍
31 is not old...you will see this later in life. make a go of it or not. you are an amazing rider. just enjoy your gift
Pls do more comps dude, it's so refreshing to see you with the big boys again🤘🏻
That was awesome!! Great job Sam!!👍🏻👍🏻
These contest Vlogs are the best🤟👍
Sam, I’ve literally starting riding mountain bikes from June and found your channel,, your the man
Love seeing you in comps again
Keep doing comps! You’re insane and don’t need to win, we all love seeing you ride with all the others regardless. 🙌🏼🙌🏼
Sam.. Don't be bummed dude. You gotta go for it, 110% kudos for entering the comp.. Big balls young man.. Keeping reaching to the ssskkkkkyyyyyy
Dude, not that you're old or anything..cuz I'm older and still feel young..you did a fantastic job. Don't hang your head, instead, lift up that chin. You did awesome! Good for you to take it on.
Thanks for letting us share in the fun.
Welcome to Denmark 😁🇩🇰🇬🇧🤘 and well done 💪Absolutely an honor having You here, looking forward to the next vid😊
I love your honesty at the end. You did not just blame your lack of sleep. You took it on the chin like a true athlete.
Just a warm up, destination bangers is on its way!
The fact that Sam is a legend already, even those athletes look up to you❤️
For what's it worth your return to comps made for an epic and engaging video! One of your best ever IMO.
You definitely still have if skills to match with the other lads. You came 7th in the 1st qualifying round - that’s quite impressive; especially as your 1st competition in ages. Then the conditions were terrible. Head high; and look towards the next one. 🤙🏻👍🏻🍀
Nice work Sam...loved that you put everything at risk by doing what you wanted to do...there is no fail when you go big...
Great video, showed a bit of a different persona and I liked it, it felt very real. I can relate to the schism between "I'm hear to have fun and see what I can do" and then the disappointment, like you are taking it seriously and not at the same time. Its clear to anyone watching that you can totally hack it and the other guys looked at you like a pro even if you are out of practice. I would be all for more comps as a different side of things, as long as you don't end up hurt by having to take too many risks.
I'm 45, makes you the young guy. Keep doing it, your videos are pure entertainment and inspiration.
It was fun to watch so thanks for the cool content. You've got the game for comps. Just commit and give it your best!
The heart you bring to the sport and competitions! #1 🤙🤜🤛
SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO SICK seeing Emil and you shredding together!
A sight i never thought i'd see again in my life is you shredding events again!!!!
I personally think you should try and enter into more events again, mistakes are there for the lessons and you've learned what to do next time
But it's completely understandable if you just want to chill and sesh life :D
Really enjoyed the commentary on a real scene! Chin up, your were pushing for more. Competitive spirit is better than a qualy!
Also, your attitude made all the difference...lots of up-comers watching this and watching you there. You are a leader and a legend! Cheers!
Don't normally comment Sam, but just wanna say you're my absolute inspiration and a big reason I've got into bikes so much. You're the absolute top of the game in the inspiration department
Sam you are insane! For not competing for a while it’s not too shabby 😅. Props to you for trying to flare where nobody els did! 💪. Keep up the insane videos! 🙌🔥
Thanks for the 'real' vid dude. Sometimes things don't work out but you still made the most of it and will be back for sure. Looking forward to the street vids.
Your still a legend tho bro and you still got it mate proves your still in the game your the only rider iv seen that can ride any bike anywhere and still make it sick 🤘
Was insane getting to watch you live! It sucks with the weather. In general, Red Bull didn't do such a good job with the event. I came a watched live on Saturday, and I didn't even know the slopestyle comp was cancelled.. However, being able to go to watch a contest with you and everyone else was definitely a dream come true!! And I'm super stoked to get out a ride more! 🤙
This was so fun to watch man, you still stomped tho, props to you man!!! ⚡️
Keep on shredding 🤙 you're still the winner for me 🥇🔥
finals or not, no one rides like he does. I don't even ride MTB, but have been following this channel for a long time, simply because of his attitude and enthusiasm towards biking.
Really enjoy all your vids Sam!!! Thank you!
Awesome stuff dude as always! Legend hats 🎩 off to you from me and my Channel for all that you have done and inspired us to be thank you 🙏❤️
Dont give up Sam! You most definately still roll with the big boys. No doubt you'll be back on the podium next time
great video Sam! your are such an inspiration for me, i even built myself a cheap dirt jump to begin practice, thank you for all the content! regards from México
Don't stop competing I love watching you compete don't let this defeat you
You had barely any sleep and still smashed it ! Takes alot to get in the zone sometimes.. looking forward to the street riding
Because you are very good at what you do Sam. You got this.
@3:15 I love how he just pullst the camera away from him 😂😂😂
Legend, such contagious energy
Top effort!! Keep it going, we want to see more of this content. Swallow your pride ol boi
Damn that first flair caught me off guard. Total 🔥🔥🔥 You killed it. Don’t get too in your head. You had the competition worried. That last 1/4 was wonky and slick. Don’t give up you’ll get em next round. Thanks for the amazing video 👍
I love how despite being competitors everyone was cheering or giving props during the practice sessions. Kinda wholesome :)
I am so excited to see you in contest! At future events I will be watching Live if possible!!! Even if i am at work!
Love it ! Wow it's windy..... While upsidedown on a monster jump.
Sam Today is gonna be EPIC! It was too sorry that you didn't make it to the finals but you will get'um next time! Love the channel and content keep up the great work! I'm here for the algorithm! Peace
Despite the conditions and unfortunate events of the day…still blown away with the riding and entertainment factor! Easily my favourite rider by far! Great video!!! 🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼
Oh Sam I really felt for you on the 2nd run and the same thing happened. Hopefully you feel a bit better about it now, I can’t even imagine the pressure you must have felt going back to comps after so long. That in itself is huge! You were still the winner for me 💥🤟🏼❤️
good for you mate! so stoked to see you back in comps
Such an awsome video...things just stacked against you abit. So sick, you are a weapon!
Keep it up man, this is awesome!
Competition craft is the same as race craft, if you’ve not been at a comp, you’ll not be used to it! You’ve still got it
Absolutely kicked it with the big guns bro you are a big gun. I’m not sure there is a rider in this world regardless of genre that doesn’t know your name. Chin up man!
You got this dude, not ideal conditions and first time back, you can definitely still hang!
Awesome video! Loved your effort and honesty. Real inspiration to us all. Especially us old timers. Please keep hitting up the comps. You're the best!
It's a shame you didn't particularly enjoy it, but you need to go to more events like these. Sooooo good to watch. Keep it up!!
Nothing more impressive than riding a bike over trough terrain mate. Big UP
New to your page but so awesome watching you in the comp mate,watched all the free bike challenges and it's super rad! Can't wait to binge more vids
*MEGA SAM* Still in the form. One of the best slope style event logs recorded. *Well Pro* !
