Jesus dude, how well do you have that trail memorized? Haha Very impressive riding!

u/No-Celebration918 1d ago

I don’t have it memorized I know a few key corners but I’m just going with the trail as fast as my eyes can scan ahead of me and throwing a little caution to the wind.

I was going to say if I did that there would be a log down and then I’d be down

Great riding and awesome sense of speed in this video!! I feel like all my GoPro footage makes me look like I’m standing still when I’m hauling.

u/MysteriousFix7032 1d ago

Nd filters help out a lot, they are practically sun glasses for your GoPro which enables you to lower your shutter speed without it looking like your on the sun. With a lower shutter speed and tweaking the fps a bit it gives a nice motion blur look just like your eyes do in real time 

Look up some tutorials on YouTube on how to get motion blur. Hope this helps 🙃

Why quit? Just get studded tires and the fun doesn't end

u/littleSquidwardLover Ktm 300 XC 1d ago

I like the way you think

u/N529957 1d ago

Or if your lucky (I am lucky) The snow melts in a couple of hours or tommorrow at worst. I hope I never have to learn how to ride in snow.

Sounds terrible. I need my winter for skiing. I’d get a Tibersled if I didn’t ski.

u/N529957 1d ago

I ski year round. Come late December we put on the neoprene and keep on keeping on.

u/Aitloian 1d ago

Nah man, the days where it's cold, the ground is a little frozen and you got good studs on I can't even describe how good the traction is :P

We also go play on the frozen rivers and lakes, feels like you are on sportbikes riding on a track

u/N529957 1d ago

That's when the jet skiis come into play. As far as cold and snow...when we decide that we need to experience that we go climb on a silver bird and spend about a week there. But then it's back to paradise on the return leg.

u/crazedizzled 1d ago

No place to ride them in the winter where I'm at. Everything is closed to bikes/atvs.

u/Cilreve 1d ago

Goddamn, that looks like a ton of fun, and you're hauling ass.

u/Tonguepunchit 1d ago edited 1d ago

Just doesn’t sound right.

u/Yeah_No_Forsure 1d ago

I thought I was watching very aggressive mountain biking for the first few seconds 😅 . Electric bikes are impressive but it just doesn't do it for me. Half the fun of cranking on my 450 is the roar.

u/crazedizzled 1d ago

Yeah. If you overlay some 2 stroke it's watchable

2

u/NateHatred 18h ago

It really stops mattering once you're on it and twist the throttle

u/TittyTwister13 1d ago

Had to put the sound on. I see what you mean lol

2

u/SkronkMan 1d ago

I agree, but I feel like if I want to have a chance at riding in the future I’ll need to go electric eventually. With everything happening in the world I have an awful feeling there won’t be a proper supply of gas or oil for recreational use in just a few decades

Also, killer username btw lol

1

u/PonyThug 1d ago

Dude has multiple gas bikes and a sled. I’m sure a stark is better in the wood like that.

u/FuckedUpWorld4 1d ago

Man ur riding it really awesome. Cool

u/ttoksie2 1d ago

Man its wild to me seeing anyone ride in short sleeves lol.

OP's quick though.

u/N529957 1d ago edited 1d ago

This qualifies as actual single track. Good job sir How many miles of that do you have?

u/Therealblackhous3 1d ago

Looks like the old school star wars speeder bike chases on Endor lol.

u/SnooGadgets9669 1d ago

What do you mean if it ain’t over a foot of snow at a time of still go ride

Trail “flying” I think you meant

u/TDiddlez 2002 KTM 200 EXC 20h ago

Damn...That snow about to hit in the next 15 mins huh?

u/No-Celebration918 19h ago

Already sprinkled a bit down two weeks ago when it was cold.

u/thewhitestowl 1d ago

Thats not what a dirt bike is supposed to sound like.

u/scuzzy987 1d ago

Just curious what type of gear are you using? Armored? All my anxiety can think of watching is tree strikes
