Everything's bigger on Blue Velvet. One of my favourite trails at Whistler Bike Park is this sweet blue flow trail up in the Garbanzo Zone. It gives you a taste of everything you'd hope to ride while in BC like fast flowy berms, jumps, rock faces and woodwork, all without delving into black diamond territory. Make sure to check it out while you're there!

I first watched this 3 years ago. I can now say that this is the video that sparked my passion in mountain biking. I now ride every day, work at a bike shop, and love nothing more than biking. Thank you.
That's so cool to hear Henry! Thanks for sharing.

“If you have kids you can bring them to this park it’s really fun” He says as he’s ripping through it at the speed of a car
Trust me if you start mountain biking you will understand that this trail is pretty easy for most riders
I'll take my kids there for sure. 👍

As someone who rides that kind of thing a lot, I’m just used to it. Same as any other kind of extreme sport - it gets less extreme the more you do it :D
Just like me when I ski

Almost kills/seriously injures himself “woah, that was weird.” Lol

What part?
@That one guy thanks
Yeah he wouldve slid but he would land on the track, so he wouldnt die

Welcome to mountain biking 😁.
This guy seems so chill while going like, 30km per hour, like.. props to you.
That trail is like a roller coaster for bikes. Who agrees
Exactly! So fun.
Ya I do
@@TheLoamRanger awesome
Thanks for so many like everybody.

From a fellow mountain biker, great video! Also extra points for not playing a bunch of music over the video!
Yeah that always annoys me!
No song...... we’re going raw
@@ezedits2222 indeed 🤣
Amen! 👍🏻
Music always seems to be playing when we don’t want it to be!
This is the video that has started my mountain bike passion and journey, thanks for this.
Creo fan in the wild??
I watched this without sound and it was the most relaxing meditative thing ever
"If you have kids, this is a great trail to take them on" *passes by struggling adults on the way down*
See there's two things to consider. One, if you go about 2mph it's really not too hard to go down it, plus there's really no obstacles. But also, did you hear him toss in that causal "if they can handle a blue Whistler trail"
@@jamesestey9246 That's true! In my head I'm seeing a little girl on a pink bike with a basket ringing her bell for everyone to get out of the way as she tears down the path. Which is not at all what he was getting at lol!

@@freakdustsk7397 na you don't at least for 99% of the trail
He also said he’s seen bears
Wow! He is a kind and polite man!!

Why does this impress you
@@raymondsuchovic1503 I think this impresses him because not many people are nice now these days

I was going to say, because he is Canadian like me!
This was hard to watch especially the feeling that if I did this I would be in the hospital after the first 30 seconds.

(Going 60 mph down a rocky hill). “Yeah and then when i finished changing my tire i look to my left and theres a bear!”
The casual way in which he talks makes it clear that what seems intense to us is just a leisurely stroll for him.
Thanks! It's all what you're used to. Do anything enough times and it gets to be rather mellow :D

Some people are just going down the trail normally and then he’s just like DONT MIND ME YEEET
when I was 12 years old and I loved that place I went there with my dad and it was so epic and amazing and I didn’t go on the exact trail you’re on but it was so fun
Based off your grammar I’d say you haven’t even hit 12 yet

This is so satisfying.

“This is a great place to take your kids” *a couple minutes later* “Yeah I was changing my tire the other day and I looked over and there was a bear near me”
He meant if your sick of them!
U can see a bear anywhere in whistler though hahahaha
Rode it today and saw 4 bears ... my son thought he was gonna get eaten
Yea it's a great place to take your kids because you want to be sure that once you take them back they never come back r/cursed comments
Hahahahahhahagahaghahahahahaghahahaah
Thanks for a) the solid camera angle, b) no overly dramatic music and c) good commentary. Other creators please take note. This is how you make a MTB vid.
I love watching these videos because as a mountain biker myself I love seeing trails from all around the world
I frequently rewatch this video, a couple times a year. who else

Thanks for this awesome upload. I've been watching this while I cycle indoors. Really helps me imagine like I'm outside travelling the world.
"If you have kids" yes I am a kid. I am 14 year old who just recently learned how to ride one and you're taking me to that already?!
Yeah this is probably the easiest one I’ve ever seen at this park
Vexed - Music I would imagine you are either very ignorant or have never actually ridden at a bike park
Whistler is easy it took me one and a half seasons of practice and did a line no problem
Lol the funny thing is is that this is one of the easy ones
ayy man kids built differently up here in BC what can i say
This was the first video I ever saw of MTB and you brought me in to the sport! Now I can hit double black trails and it’s all because of this video! I live in Calgary so I hope to see u some day on the trails. Thanks Ryan
Wow that’s really cool to hear! We’ll definitely have to meet up for a ride some day.
The Mountain Biking Channel yo Calgary is in Sardinia Italian island and I went there for summer holiday 2 years in a row but now this year 3 years ( or Calgary Canada XD )
The view is amazing, perfect camera angle. I can feel the fresh air from my screen.

@@klaytonwaits2147 you can go, not realy here in Canada but there should be trails like this all over the world
I have come back here to just say thank you. I had been on a mountain biking trip and I didn't really think much of it until 6 months later when I found this video. After watching this video, my life changed just because I told myself one day, I will get there and ride that track (I had no idea where this was at the time). Ever since then I have been riding nearly everyday just improving my skills and getting better. After about a year of riding, I can say that it is one of the best things to have ever happened to me.
1:11 can we just thank this man for being so nice? when ever i do something like this, everyone shouts it
I haven't rode a bike in years I have no idea why I'm watching this
Haha well thanks for checking it out anyways Kaden. Sounds like it's your destiny to get back on the bike :D

Thats why they make youtube so people like us can just watch lol

@@ostespiser just kidding
Up hill both ways?
Idk i'd still enjoy going to school like this
Our grandparents have great stories Our parents have stories how they walked 10km to school and got bullied
This video is very pleasing to the eye
This is so mesmerizing to watch, it's so strange and fascinating, it's also ignited a joy for mountain biking within me so thank you for uploading this.
@Luke Exploring No, but I want to start.
@Luke Exploring I subbed to you btw

Looks terrific. Son says "Let's go do those walls like him instead of going to Hawaii". When he heard tree house. Hawaii was game over.
Good man! You're making the right choice :)
Who needs Hawaii when you have Whistler!
@FoodieQuinnster State forests to start, then find the local bike trails , like pump tracks and dirtjumps to ride. Then go hit up whistler
This is my 10th time watching this in like 3 years... THIS IS SO SATISFYING AND INSPIRING TO DO ACTIVE STUFF.
This is. One of. The best feeling
Wow at the speeds you’re going I would’ve been slamming the breaks, the bumpiness of the rocks makes it look like you’re about to go flying off the trail
Haha yup sometimes you've got to just hold on and hope for the best.
I got hit by a very hard rock when i was on a mountain bike trial
When I tries to drive at high speed something let my front tire stop immediately and I just fell of My bike, broke my brakes, gears, front tire, front light and my arm...
I love how the camera is so steady
It’s on his chest so yeah
@@kirwitch8236 probably on a gimble aswell
Optical stabilization
probably on his ball
It was one of the best track also scary and challenging.... I have seen ever.... Awesome!
Still awesome to see it in the mountain bike view.
6:11 is my favorite part. I love the huge sigh at having to slow down for like a second. xD
ll Kasper ll yea people were in his way
Sure people, just stand in the middle of the trail why don’tcha 🤷🏽♂️🙈
i would be screaming the whole time😲
Haha like an awesome roller coaster.
Screaming while down hilling would get you seriously injured
Wish I could have done that trail back in the 80’s on my BMX bike. It’s amazing how far technology has progressed. Your bike looks like a Ferrari compared to what I grew up with. Starting my research on mountain bikes to get back out there. Thanks for posting this video, I thoroughly enjoyed it.
I wish I could have as much self confidence than this dude have for his bike.
You are going sooo fast! This looks like a sick flow trail! Kind of bumpy though...
You have to! Ya kinda jarring at times haha
The Loam Ranger I would probably slide out or hit a tree
Kaysen Klingler I love you
Kaysen Klingler it can get washboardy in the summer
Where is that
my beer can do this, hold me
Lmao
So therapeutic 💆♂️
I love how he rides it like it's a roller coaster it's so satisfying for some reason
But then again whats the point in living if you don't take a few risks.
Maybe because you wont die? That's a good enough reason to live I'd say
Mike Marks few scrapes and bumps sure but hardly fatal
@@mikemarks6136 yep, good enough but this will not stop to many people, in fact nobody
@@tyzellchan2799 bro you can get a scrape or bump from leisurely riding without going 25+ mph what these guys are doing can result in injuries much more devastating it's insane
@@hatergeneral4298 unfortunately your right but to each their own I suppose
This is hipnotic Thanks for recommending this to me yt
This seriously looks like so much fun
The trail is like a roller coaster for mountain bikes.
Absolutely!
I would panic if he suddenly says "coming up on your left"
😂
Yo fr I would shit myself
The other guy saw him coming though. Around that hairpin he is looking around for him. I think he was actually relieved to let him through. I could be wrong though :)
he said it slowly tho
랴유ㅏㅠ우ㅜㅇ
yeah the red flannel is back!
This video right here got me into mountain biking. Thanks man!
That is one heck of a ride, wow.
I died at least 4 times
Is it just me or I'm not alone, I feel so satisfied when he gets down the ramps for some reason
Everyone:stops every 20 mins You:nah bye have a great time Me: staying at home and think I can be like this

wow, this was so awesome. I've been inactive for years now. I decided I was truly tired of being exhausted and unfit, so I got on exercise bike in my closet and watched this video and another, and for the first time, I peddled the entire time without stopping. I used my bike for online spinning classes, which I loathe, but this is the new thing for me now, thanks to this video!!!!
Why is he not scared? Wow I'm impressed
Thanks Veronica! Once you've built yourself up to doing higher speed runs like this, it's just a good time!
I’ve never done what he’s doing before but I feel like it’s pretty similar to trail riding on dirt bikes which I’ve grown up doing. It’s one of those things that once you’ve done it enough you’re completely comfortable doing it and just have fun with it instead of thinking about the dangers and being scared
gboles97 yup, what he said!
I am 10 and do stuff like that all the time!

Everyone: take it slow and safe This guy: brakes? i don’t understand..?
You could edit it and say brakes? Never heard of those?!

It's great, it gives me a refreshing and thrilling feeling as soon as I watch it on the screen.🤭😄
Dude, that looks like pod racing! You have the instincts of a Jedi!
I'm literally 11 yrs old and this place looks like a dream to me. I would love to come down to Canada, take my bike, and just shred this trail. Looks like so much fun!
Make a plan and make it happen!
same here man its my dream to go down that trail, im 13 and wanting that sooooo bad

The way talked about the bear being near him so casually ... Gives me goosebumps!!

is it me or i felt quite unsafe watching the video? lol. anyways, nice vid!

This is a blue trail they are the most fun ones what do you mean unsafe (I get it if you don't MTB)
"ooh that was weird" Pshhh THAT WAS DEATH
is it just me or is this satisfying to watch
I used to be half way suicidal on my bikes as a kid.. now 20+ years later just getting my feet wet a bit on Mt. biking again.. training up hill and exhilarating downhill is what I'm looking for.. This channel is inspiring me..
This looks so fun but I asked my bike and it fell apart just by watching the video with me
That’ll happen 🤷♀️🙈
