    Yes, I didn't post a video last Friday. Due to the lighting, the quality of the video just flat out sucked even before I uploaded it to TH-cam and it just wasn't worth watching IMO. That being said, if you're having issues with the video quality watch in 1440p or 4k, and if you want even higher quality videos join the Patreon community where you get these videos uploaded to another video hosting site that doesn't compress the videos. Not only that, but you will get the videos before everybody else and also get to suggest skills topics! www.patreon.com/SkillswithPhil

    "Oh what's this? Oh it's a drop!" then you fly off a humongous drop like it's not even there! So amazing!

    @ammarazme6487 7 ปีที่แล้ว +12

    If I went in 90% of the turns at the speed Phil did, I would have died and i'm not even joking. Your vids always make me want to ride harder and get better. Keep em' coming!

    "All we're doing right now is just pumping"... two seconds later, they go over a rock drop and the guy in front is *TOTALLY* pedaling. 1:24 =D Gotcha, Phil!

      Missed my DH bike but most bike parks around here are actually more fun on a trail bike oddly enough.

    • @JordanBoostmaster
      @JordanBoostmaster 7 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      I see interesting, I actually never owned a DH bike myself, but I do plan on getting one sometime

    @Twentykixx 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hi Phil, just watched this in HD and it absolutely blows me away watching you shred that. It would be awesome to see a video like this in full panoramic 3D/4D. I'd pay to go see it. I ride a bike, but you absolutely float like a dragon. Kudos my friend, and safe journeys on the rail, I'm lowly on the trail compared to that. Hope meet you on the trails someday.

      @rajkandhari2745 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Sweet riding dude. You made it look easy but then you actually sounded exhausted. It's amazing how the faster you go, the harder it is.

    Hey phil I'm going to mountain creek this weekend. Last time I went I nailed the progression drops easy but I didn't to that patio drop, aka phantom or deck drop. The drop is at 3:56. I'm watching this trying to overcome my nerves because I really want to do it I'm just scared. Any tips?

  • @beckwatts768
    @beckwatts768 7 ปีที่แล้ว +35

    Hey Phil, you should do a video where you get a fan/beginner rider come to a bike park with you and you both do every trail from easiest to hardest. If you you think that's a good idea tell me. Thanks.

    • @durrantmiller8810

    Any one else who rides Creek notice the 2 huge gaps?? One on dombo the (bermy trail at 2:31) and one on salvation! The salvation gap is huge! Used a left berm as a lip and then skipped a right berm and landed back into the left! So sick Phil!

      thats why it's a plus...watching you on the Dh bike is all ways inspiring to me and you been off the Dh bike for a while.... i think that ur channel crowd are above the beginner level, so it will be helpful for some DH tips on DH rig

  • @MartianGopnik
    @MartianGopnik 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Oh boy, oh boy! Are you going to do another build live stream with the downhill bike? I found the last one "oddly satisfying" to use the youtube buzzwords...
    Did you shoot over that gap at 2:30 on your first run on a new bike!? Or did you get a few practice runs in first?
    Did the clip *tear out of his shoe* at 4:00??? :O

    • @SkillsWithPhil
      @SkillsWithPhil  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      That was my first attempt at it. I saw that gap earlier but sort of forgot where it was so it was a last minute decision and I had to soak up the bike not to case it!!
      Nah, he just twisted his foot funny and came unclipped, but a random leaf popped out of nowhere!
