"Good choice mate, e-bike downhill...we've got uphill on acoustic bikes" 😂😂😂 Gotta love that sense of humour. Amazing run Matt...another proof that you're just awesome at biking! 💪🏻
I can't tell you how amazing that was. It was like I was there. I could feel your pain and joys. Thank you. I wish I would have a chance to do something like that in my life. Incredible!
James Dempster nooooo hole true to your guns. Double down on your info because it’s actually right and ol mate is just being a goon to you 😂😂😂 delete this comment and hold the other one!
yeah i've literally never even ridden a mountain bike but these enduro suffer fests are really entertaining. Something about matt huffing and puffing for 20 minutes
Well done matt! 👊 Enduro is so tough, I think a lot don't realise just how hardcore it is, few could do what you just did on a full EWS course. Essentially racing dh whilst exhausted after only (normally) one practise run, it really pushes the limits of rider and bike. Much respect. I'll stick to the local enduro races, 2-4 minute stages with 20 minute climbs, and still takes me a week to recover from an event!
Matt, you have to be one of the most genuine athletes in the world! Your unfiltered dialogue is the best. Matt have my 9 year old a tow down a Whistler trail... He is just as cool in person. Can't fake great. Keep it going Matt. More videos like this.
That's easily the best video you've done! I'm used to seeing this guy show off his mad jumping skills and making cool videos but it's great to see him empty the tank and drag himself through the challenge.
Can appreciate what EWS racers go through. Gruelling stuff. Really does allow for one to appreciate the package that is a bike with such conditions. Brilliant ride Matt and team. Well done and thanks for the POV.
Amazing what the body is capable of. I mean, you said you were done by the end of stage 1 and yet you smashed all other 4 stages + the climbs to get there! Big up Matt 💪🏼👊🏼 more EWS for sure 🙏🏼
The one enduro race that I’ve done was one of the hardest yet most gratifying things I’ve done. I hope the whole race season isn’t canceled this summer because I was looking forward to trying a few more this year
Watching stage 1 and 2 I was like, "yeah, that ain't too bad, looks managable", then stage 3 kicks in and from then on I was like "how would you even approach half of those obstacles?"
This has reaffirmed my belief of how much of a good guy you are. Such a team player pushing your mates and smashing an event that isn't your norm! Well played matt
I just woke up, then I watch this...now I am tired need to sleep more..haha, But honestly..This is the best things I've seen, thanks for taking time to document & share to us, I love bikes but I doubt if I can do what you did, maybe more practice, and experience. Keep pedalling! Cheers mate
Top stuff Matt, Morgane and Johnny! That looked absolutely brutal! I'm much more an XC guy, I don't think I could have done those climbs on my hardtail... The descending was inspiring stuff in isolation, but after the climbing I'm actually in awe. I remember hating the camera flashes when I was racing 24hr XC and I think I actually yelled at a few photogs not to take the picture at night :-/
Loved this video. Got my son a Marin Attack, I ride it a lot. So predictable and you know what to expect as well. Good job, you did awesome mate - seriously motivating!!! Keep it up young fella!
Fair effort running through it all. I'm no athlete but can still appreciate how far the bottom of the barrel was scraped. honestlyy though, the horns, sirens and clanging of rims by the crowd would have thrown me, let alone trying to see feel and ride the track. well done mate.
All of these documentaries need to display a warning before watching them that reads “ Warning the following documentary is highly addictive and may keep you up at night wanting more”
great video! congrats for putting in the effort ! so refreshing to see a more "mere mortal" take on the EWS, highlighting not only the stages, but even more importantly the climbs, that can properly drain you to the point you can't finish the downs. Cheers and looking forward to more great content like this!
I walked away from my phone while this was playing and then I heard.. "I split me banana... I taped me nuts" I'm like dang that must have been a bad wreck!
If I ever get to pass someone, I will 100% say, “I’m behind you.., LITERALLY behind you....Cheers!!” 😂 One is the best and enjoyable videos I’ve seen in sometime! 🔥👊🏼
Really good footage m8, subbed to ya channel on it. More like this and were all happy. Would love to be there, fast enough to hurt yourself if you overcook it, which I probably would. Thanx 4 the upload.
18:21 I cant believe that after all that you have 2 people just stood in your way and don't even attempt to move. You must have some restraint. I would have taken my pain out on them.
Thank you for doing this! Really interesting to see your perspective and line choice when you're fatigued. You are one of the best bike handlers and obviously top-tier slopestlye riders on the scene so it was really insightful to watch how you made decisions, good or worse, when you got gassed. Thanks again!
Cool bro! Been there done that. The EWS challenger race in 2018 in Finale was my first ever enduro race. Loved it, I am hooked! DH Uomo, all the people there made me OTB at one point. Just to fired up...
Man I love watching your vids! Uploaded vlogs and did commentary on your own run and crashes all while riding an ACOUSTIC bike... but can't count to 7 hours, remember the track, and take a wrong turn..That's FULL enduro :)
Matt jones so comfortable on a bike he talks you through the crash hahah
“I crashed, broke my back, my knee is sticking out my chest and my wife left me. “Anyways enough about me”
this made me choke
Devasion anyways that’s enough about you 😂

Awesome achievement. Keep on with it mate, it’s great to see you trying new things.
4:07 " still not the end" I love this so much, represents me so much whenever I race.
100% do another one, well enjoyed. thanks mate

That beach you finished on is a bit strange 😂
quite far away from the sea isnt it. maybe a big ass beach?
I needed the beach closure
Even in stressful situations and exhaustion, you stay remain in a positive state of mind. Way to be man!!
Good going Matt, would be good to see more enduro type stuff :)
I only watch your vids to the end cause you actually make them interesting - especially with all the consistent commentary.
Awesome video Matt. So stoked to see you are doing more than just dirt jumping. Good job👏🏻
Can appreciate what EWS racers go through. Gruelling stuff. Really does allow for one to appreciate the package that is a bike with such conditions.
Brilliant ride Matt and team. Well done and thanks for the POV.
I need Matt giving me encouragement in everyday life like he does for Johnny
Absolutely amazing man! It’s so awesome to see you branching out to other sections of the sport and you crushed it!!
Solid ride gals/guys,great to see non-pro's attempting this. Gives us regular riders hope so to speak. Oh and congrats on 2nd place finish.
Amazing what the body is capable of. I mean, you said you were done by the end of stage 1 and yet you smashed all other 4 stages + the climbs to get there! Big up Matt 💪🏼👊🏼 more EWS for sure 🙏🏼

wow bit late to the party best enduro video on the tube imo mate whole new respect for these beasts who do this nutty stuff for fun 😂
Matt the entire time: "Agh! Ow! Gak!"
The audience as he rides by: "AAYYYYYYYYYYY"
I appreciate you beeping out the expletives and keeping it family friendly.
Watching stage 1 and 2 I was like, "yeah, that ain't too bad, looks managable", then stage 3 kicks in and from then on I was like "how would you even approach half of those obstacles?"

“ a big bananer and a pair o’ nuts”
This is absolutely insane. You are so freaking tough, Matt. Kudos.
I just love watching people do shit like this while regretting their life decisions.
That’s the shit that makes you grow lmao
Feel your pain when you came off, I came off once after hitting a hidden stump got a right wrist compress fracture. Love watching your rides
Love the vids man, keep it up🔥
My favorite vids are your dirt jump trails back at your home.
Good to see someone who doesn't get angry with people in front of them. Kudos for the patience and taking on the epic ride! 🚲
Halfway through stage 2: “ I don’t need this in my life.” After it’s over: ‘Comment if you want me to do another one.”
You're awesome, bro. Thanks for making these videos and always keeping it fun and humble. Rock on!

Outstanding video!!! felt like i was riding it with ya.. had anxiety attack on some of those turns!!!! great video

I read your comment when Matt said 'this is a horrible stage'. 😂
That was both great fun and at the same time quite nerve racking to watch. You all did so well. Congratulations.
