I absolutely love your videos. You do such a great job on showing the trails. Thank you for making these vids. The new trails up there look really friggin nice man.
@@terrymitchell3670 I'm no where as skilled as you. I'm much slower but I'd love to! I do have a channel on here but its only for the family to see what the old man is doing. Let me know sometime and I'll try to join up with ya!
I haven't been, but planning, to visit windrock in a couple weeks. I've been watching many videos to learn the trail and score them based on my perception of what I can and cannot do. your videos by far is the best for "virtual pre-ride". I love the format, the detailed description you do, the visual showing the features, walking through the trail system and which trail starts here/there and where to turn, how to connect them. great work x3!
Thanks man! That's why I make them. I really want to help people have a good time when they make the effort to visit a new trail system/park. I happen to ride Windsock most weekends, so hmu if you want a quick tour some weekend! I love showing people around.
@@mtbtraildoctor I plan to be there this Friday on the first shuttle if you're around! two days away and I'm still studying and memorizing your videos haha
@@yoshidoshi123 Good on ya man! I'm happy to report that I did the local race league last weekend, and we raced Reacharound from the top, which just opened and it's actually running as good as I've seen it in the past few years. I'm working to be there Friday so look for a silver SUV with two Santa Cruz Bikes on the back. Or, the V10 that's in all my videos! Look forward to showing you the place!
Thanks for showing us the trails on Friday and Sat. Sorry we didnt get to thank you in person. (I was on the YT Tues and my buddy was on the emtb Canyon Torque)
So happy to see trails I can hit at Windrock without crapping my pants. Makes me want to go back even more knowing I can have a few laps of chill and not be pushing my limits all day.
For sure. I've had multiple conversations with Aaron about the trail system and their goals for the park. They are working toward making the park more accessible to riders of every type. The "true blue" trail is currently in process (per the video) and work continues. They have already marked out the first green trail from the drop off, so things are looking up for all riders!
@mtbtraildoctor That's very exciting. I know Windrock has been the dedicated "gnarly" park for years but I'm excited to see some trails that don't test my will to live every time haha. I love that Windrock is so gnarly but I cant handle gnraly all day which makes it tough for me to choose to go to Windrock. It's why I have loved so many of the other local new parks over the years (Vee Hollow, Ober, Wildside), granted Wildside currently lacks gnarly stuff but its coming. Now with Windrock getting some true blues, it will definitely pop up on my radar again more and more. This will hopefully put it more in line with a place like Ride Rock Creek. Somewhere I'm more confident also bringing friends who don't bike as much.
Sweet dude! It's always an awesome coincidence when I happen to capture someone riding when I'm doing the still shots. Helps the viewer a lot I think. Just too much time to do this all with multiple people, or camera stands, etc.
Do you live near Windrock? I was wanting to get back up there in February most likely, and it'd be helpful to ride with someone that's not only familiar, but comfortable with most of the trails.
I live about an hour and 40 minutes away, but am on a season pass for the winter season, so I get up there almost every Friday and Saturday. Let me know!
@@mtbtraildoctor It didn't dawn on me it was you until after we left. Only recognized you by your santa cruz. Your vids really helped us navigate , thanks! Windrock is wild and best ridden on a DH bike. I'm on ST 115/130 and it was impossible to ride at speed safely. Even on the smoothest trail, Talladega, it shook me so bad it blurred my vision and I had to keep slowing down. Bless those two boys out there on hardtails that day lol.

Thanks man! Much appreciated. Let’s go ride some time!

Was my pleasure! Glad you guys had a good Windsock experience. See you out on the trails some day soon!
