Watch's jays perspective here kzfaq.info/get/bejne/o7pnmquAl82vnGg.html It's good to have you back on KZfaq, and finally catch up in person. One of these days i need redemption on learning flairs.

lol knew it was u

I still haven't hit that gap... but man he makes it look smooth! Tight line!

If you like Jay, you're gonna love his sister.

One of the best on going jokes.

I was a camper at Camp Woodward (PA) when scotty came through as a guest pro. It was super fun to watch him ride in person. It wasn't too much longer after that that I transitioned to MTB. It's weird and cool to see the BMX and MTB worlds finally crossing over a bit more.

@@SkillsWithPhil You should get his brother to come out on a ride! He's getting into MTB too!

7-8 years ago, Jay helped me learn "flairs". I use that term loosely because I don't think i really want to count it as a real flair haha instagram.com/p/xdIqogyG0q/?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==

In your defense, suspension companies could do a way better job explaining this stuff. They use a lot of industry jargon. Thats why i made this video a while ago, though even that doesn't explain how those functions translate to the trail. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/psyeotSLvZbIZHk.html

It's a shame he wasn't wearing on his helmet :P

And friends!

Gotta agree. I never was able to settle on a good intro but his is perfect

I started racing DH on an '05 kona stinky supreme. By today's standards that's pretty old school. I'd be okay not riding one again, modern bikes even trails feel so much better in comparison!

Yea I love fork dampening. Best way is with a wet paper towel

I've dialed back how progressive my stuff is. Currently in my fork I'm running a single token, an maybe a little more air than I would in years past.

That day u filmed the vid😂

Most garmins are a bit too large and heavy for my liking, and fwiw i run the smaller apple watch. I wish it was a bit slimmer, but it works well for what i need. I have a bit of a bumper case on my to try and protect the screen a bit, but it's still pretty scratched from trail building and riding. I use the solo loop watch band as i found that not having a buckle as the bands with buckles dig into my wrist.

Compared to what? This is the same setup I've been using for years now.

I get vertigo near edges of cliffs, even big exposed rock faces make me nervous. Oddly enough chairlifts have never given me the same feeling. There's a safety bar that you can and should put down. But when you are on the lift, just look ahead, or to the side. As long as you don't look directly down, you don't realize how high up you are. If you have friends with you having a conversation is a good way to distract yourself. Another option is to find a smaller bike park, they often have smaller less intimidating lifts. If all else fails, there are bike parks that shuttle riders up the mountain in trucks/trailers. Wind rock, rock creek, coast gravity park are a few that come to mind.

Even thats not enough. Ive been recognized in full snowboard gear (face fully covered), in the lift line during winter before. 🤷‍♂️
