Aaron Gwin | TIMELESS EPISODE 3 "My Favorite Place To Ride"

[@tristanbotteram]

It felt like i was watching a movie in the cinema, so good put together!

[@wallyr.7854]

Clay Porter is a master of photography, scenery selection, music score and editing, simply beautifully filmed. And AG, what can be said about Aaron that hasn't been said before, one of the best bike riders in the history of the sport.

[@bigbird2451]

He's a really nice guy too. I was at a friends house in Aptos for the weekend and he and Tyler McCall showed up to film Tyler's Deity TMac pedal add. So I acted as Clays camera grip for the weekend, helping set up equipment. I even got to handle his RED camera a couple of times. Always nice, never grumpy. Great guy.

[@snappyfish]

Just thinking about who did the editing. Bloody awesome.

[@mtbjoser]

Well-said! And Aaron is very well-spoken and is a great storyteller. He’s narrated this very well, and even in his instructional videos he explains things very clearly.

[@jmard24]

if i didn't see the stuff aaron gwin can do on a bike I would think it was impossible. Those downhill rock gardens were super duper gnarly

[@lukecoley1670]

Man first time riding mammoth I crashed 9 times in 2 days and was so frustrated and was convinced it was a terrible unrideable place. After a few trips and loosening up it is truly one of the most fun places to ride on a bike and you learn to trust the dirt to form traction underneath your tires as you push into it. What an incredible place.

[@Noondog]

luke coley Well said!

[@ichewtoast111]

I want a full hour of him just riding. I’d seriously watch all of it.

[@damianliew5243]

too bad my com can't process his speed... no cap my com is currently running at 20 fps running this vid

[@daddudesdostuff]

I love Aaron's riding style.. you can always see that motocross background bleeding through in his line choices.. Great video..

[@MILTONATOR]

Best one yet. Then again it’s what I say after each episode. Absolutely loving this series.

[@jmard24]

best vid ive ever seen. If anybody is faster than that its by such a small margin it would be hard to duplicate. how his brain is able to process all that information at that speed is insane

[@lucacadianalbert]

best one yet.....you need to have ridden in Mammoth to truly understand how hard it is to ride there. Aaron makes it look sooo easy. Amazing!!

[@rossmcdo]

so loose lol

[@bigbird2451]

I got to race the very last edition of the original Kamikaze race back in the mid 90's. It's quite an eye opener and surprisingly easy to drift in that pumice.

[@Noondog]

Awesome. Hats off to you! Do you have any old photos or footage?

[@bigbird2451]

@@Noondog We didn't have cell phones back then so I probably only have one of those little photo samples that photographers used to send out.

[@Noondog]

Big Bird Understandable. Any photo documentation from those eras are gold and rare. Grateful for what footage exists on KZbin. Cheers

[@69fabricio]

Those speeds in the sand, it's crazy!

[@RiddleKingOnline]

Such an inspiring dude! I could never thank legends like Aaron enough for keeping me so hooked on riding all these years. The people and brands who support the riders and get their riding seen deserve big thanks as well.

[@MTBMOR]

Loving this series. We met Aaron up in Big Bear and he was so cool to everyone. I am a big fan! His videos and riding are just as inspiring as his attitude. I hope someone gets half as much joy out of watching my videos as I do his.

[@landonlassig]

I rode with him at our local pump track and his too and he was so nice

[@TommyHuynh]

What an amazing video, he's not only one of the best riders of all time he's such a humble nice dude. I met him a couple times and he's so chill. Definitely such a great model to all the kids 🤘 The edit was amazing 💯

[@biketothetop]

He reminds me of one of a Wreckless Rider :-)

[@kirrilymtb]

@@biketothetop who?

[@JustDiesels]

So incredible to watch someone like Gwin ride trails I know. The bike control is just mind blowing.

[@RunRideHikeThrive]

Mammoth Lakes 2010~Present, Every Summer for me, pay my respects to when the Mountains Start Calling 💪 great clip! Thanks so much for this... 👍

[@gw8390]

You have no idea how much I love this episode! The memories! So many happy times up there. I love Mammoth. Well done! And Merry Christmas!

[@Studiotreshold]

I don´t miss the big premiers in Hollywood anymore as this is one of the best mtb action movies ever, thanks to be published on the last days of this year that everybody will remenber congratulations!

[@stiritup4663]

It’d be interesting to see how fast the current pros would be on the Kamikaze course using old school bikes.

[@joeyriveira6697]

Awesome video . Brings back memories of racing the kamikaze in the days of Norba . I remember running the course for practice and thinking if I go down from a flat how it would suck as we’d hit 50+ mph on the fast sections just by tucking . The best part of those weekends was riding down this cool single track route that took from one section of the mtn to the base . Yes your right about the cinder soil it’s very interesting almost like riding in big granule sand . We raced both cross country & downhill back then and many would cough up blood from the cinder ash getting in our throats . Either way mammoth was a spectacular race & riding place what a place to see . Thanks for the great video & all the memories of racing the Norba nationals those days were the greatest as an amateur to turning pro .

[@sL4UgHtA]

This is so well made. It's a piece of art. Thank you Clay Porter and Aaron Gwin for creating and sharing.

[@BurningChariot]

Epic, beautiful film. Two legends at work and the results are amazing

[@concrerto]

The shot when the credits start rolling is amazing. That blue and pink sky in the mountains. Gives you all the feels

[@tdone2811]

Clay always delivers....mint series.

[@yodecaf]

The best one yet. Its magic to watch.

[@0zzieS]

Service roads scare the death out of me. Traction can be gone in a heartbeat. Awesome video!

[@thebogzilla]

Clay you Master! Such amazing cinematography - love the story, the environment, the music. Brilliant series.

[@PlayeurotruckwithAR]

Its Gwins riding style for me ..🤙🏾🤙🏾

[@Rg452]

Another banger video!! Great shots and atmosphere. Go Aaron!

[@ig7567]

what a pleasure to watch

[@110Knight]

This got me stoked to ride! not quite as dry here in the UK though....

[@hobmarg]

Awesome job Clay and Aaron. Love the building sense of speed through the edit. Masterpiece.

[@karlkrzok4280]

This is a great series! Incredibly well shot, good music, and I get to learn about one of the legends of this sport.

[@mycoolcar]

Steering with the hips is awesome. When he’s sprinting standing up, the bike is rocking but his torso is stable, what fantastic form on the bike.

[@montyjcm]

Mammoth is so special. Truly unique riding! AG ripping it like it’s nothing. great cinematography as well!

[@kirrilymtb]

These videos are epic, I can’t believe how long it would take to make them because there are so many shots🤩🤙

[@MTB_Nephi]

Clean Roding 👍🤜💥🤛

[@jptothetree]

Okay seriously, 7:37 might be the most beautiful shot I've ever seen in a mountain bike video. Holy hell this production was amazing!

[@2dcutout]

So good I screen-shotted it and added it to my wallpaper folder.

[@brooksBG1]

So well done! Just a wonderful viewing pleasure. Thank you Aaron Gain & Cole Porter, Director. Now I want to experience Mammoth Mountain Biking!

[@luckycyril4685]

Thats a great video man you're my idol. Let's see who knows ? In a few years i'd like to get once in my life World Champion in DH 🤙🤘 keep sending it Have a merry christmas.

[@DevinDeVore]

Excellent!!!

[@dylandoudy]

Absolutely incredible.

[@wojciechturek1601]

Best personal experience from talk with uci DH riders All the best from Glasgow Hope to see your win in 2021 in fort william

[@allaneddlemon7557]

The weight distribution you have to have in Mammoth is crazy. I love seeing a pro push the limits on some trails I’ve ridden before🤯

[@TomCaldwell]

Hell of a watch. So good.

[@markpeterschmitt]

Man, that gnar at the beginning of the run was some gnarly gnar. :-o This video is a gorgeous work of art.

[@Noondog]

Mammoth is a mecca. The emergent flow trails and jump lines across North America over the years have become bike park heaven. But the raw and unique terrain at Mammoth is a damn gift to your riding ability and a helluva good time when you embrace it.

[@diegofcm92]

This is so good! Can't have enough of this series...

[@THESEGMENTPR]

Man such a great video. Very nice cinematic look. Loved the shots with the voiceover of Aaron. Sick!!!!!

[@03BigBear]

Mammoth is definitely my Favorite place as well. Watched you win out there in the summer of 2016 on our honeymoon

[@Trailsweride]

Style is everything, this guy riding and the video prod they have a lot.

[@brentcheever1672]

So dang good

[@ochsander7555]

This was a journey...thanks for tucking in on the fire road...looks so damn rad when you want the speed so bad!!

[@MrDougschannel]

Just amazing. This was a gift. Thank you.

[@sandorambrus9402]

Jaw dropping footage. Loved the Mammoth segment seeing AG move around on the bike. I don't normally write lines on KZbin - but felt compelled to do so. Awesome mini-movie.

[@swellhunter8605]

One of the best edits I’ve ever seen boys. Much respect!!

[@Grassngas]

Great show of finesse and speed👌you definitely can rip✌️cheers

[@bauke-LV426]

That was absolutely beautiful. Jealous of your skills AND mountains

[@petenilson]

Bravo! Unbelievably beautiful edit! Gwin for the win!

[@angelcardona7101]

6:10 it makes me excited and hold my breath, what an awesome photography mixed with the music and the extremely fast and technical riding!!!! My respects!!

[@GYPSYTALES]

Brilliant.

[@mrjasongagnon]

Such a sick rider! And the video production is excellent too- thank you!

[@mogulhopper]

.................................................................................................................................WOW simply beautiful

[@hotchcrew]

Absolutely killing it! 🤙 Thanks for the package overseas last Christmas, man!

[@iwishthaticanbelikethecool6476]

Beautiful 🙏💫🔥

[@alceuferreira4562]

What a ride!

[@robmanzanares]

just a small contribution here: standing on the trail where Aaron Gwin races by: its like you have seen a ghost. silence, stillness, space. He's there and then he's not there. Badass

[@unclesheckiepainting6572]

Another great video. Next time you ride the Kamikaze access road do it on a bike from the early 90’s haha, one of the craziest things I’ve ever done .

[@iknow9367]

That Video is so awesome, thanks for that. I get goosebumps so hard

[@michaelforde4958]

This was absolutely incredible!!!

[@hardtailjefe]

BRAVO!!!! Wonderful production!

[@Luisvargas-il7pf]

Beautyfull video, great story and rider, simply amazing

[@c2c0rider]

I've watched a lot of mtb film over the years (including all of Clay Porter's released stuff) but that was undoubtedly the best riding segment I've ever watched. Congratulations to all involved, that was truly special

[@dorkyninja04]

Wow, how am I just now seeing this?! So dope!

[@NONO-hz4vo]

Unreal how good this is. Both from the riding level and the production level.

[@Spencerrathkamp]

Mammoth has a special place in my heart too! So rad and soooo smooth!

[@ChezzyDirt]

Love the narration. My friend raced the Kamikaze in ~95, they ran 52T chain ring. Way to slay that mountain. 🏁🏁

[@Shoeless_DA]

Mesmerizing, excellent riding, video, edit.

[@craighoneywell5632]

Breathtaking! Quite brilliant.....

[@chuntbumps]

I wonder if he will post a full POV of the kamikaze course. That would be mega dope!

[@olivert.7192]

wow the scenes there, so beautiful

[@lukel9605]

Awesome!

[@brycerink]

Wow! Incredible film. Stoked for what’s next

[@adrianmontgomery502]

Nice Vid - Just wondering if you could beat Jeremy Purdy’s time down the Kamikaze on any bike. Maybe they don’t make chainrings big enough anymore, the old boys had balls of steel on those rattle traps.

[@allanbuchan6947]

Awesome music , and riding

[@rafeluddin1938]

Absolutely Stunning.

[@barbbrazes869]

Beautiful! Amazing!

[@JNineBar]

Beautiful piece of cinematic art

[@thebeardedman-drenaline5546]

Timeless and right on time! Had my hands sweating by the end of it🤙

[@viceenteandrade]

This is crazy!! Thank you for making this!! Merry 🎄

[@brandonperez2267]

I can handle rocks, but those off camber turns in that dirt had me puckering.

[@robertlinkvis1680]

You are an awesome mountain bike rider and I went apple valley high school

[@mattschneider4976]

Beautiful

[@AlonR64]

Great movie, Aaron Gwin is the king of the hill

[@bfranco1519]

One thing I like about Mammoth is the “kitty litter” pumice is very forgiving on my joints and body. I get really sore riding typical bike parks but the moon dust has a very soft feel through the bike and and body. Very unique and remote place in the country!

[@marcblanch760]

no words... amazing

[@Rumlen25]

Amazing series. Props to everyone involved in making this!

[@0lioderso]
