BIGGEST SLAB IN SQUAMISH // Guided Ride with RIDE BC

I leave the flow back in Whistler and join up with James from Ride BC for some steep (really steep) Squamish tech trails, including the infamous "In and Out Burger" granite slab, which is supposed to be the biggest ridable rock face in Squamish...which is really saying something.
The next time you're in Squamish, definitely book a ride with James. He knows his stuff and can put together a freakn dream ride for you. www.ridebc.ca

Just found your channel and really impressed with everything so far. Production quality is second to none and you have good narration for the videos. Keep it up man and this channel will certainly keep on growing!

[@trailstokemtb]

This trail looks amazing! I have got to get there! Thanks for the awesome footage, man!

[@RickyDownhillRDH]

Wow, that looked like a killer ride. You know it's steep when it LOOKS steep on a GoPro!!

[@dereklangerud446]

Great video, man! So many flowy, jump line videos out there. Nice to watch some sweet steep techy stuff! 🤘

[@TheLoamRanger]

Ya I was pumped about that! You're right, the flow/jumps usually gets all the attention, so it was time to hit some gnar haha

[@brennanperu]

This is awesome, love watching your videos! Keep it up! You're videos are inspiring me to go to whistler for the summer when I'm 17, hopefully I will see you there!

[@TheLoamRanger]

Thanks Brennan -- glad to hear you're liking the vids! Hope you make it out to Whistler man! When you do, give me a shout and we'll hit some runs down the mountain if I'm in town.

[@MtbTrailHub]

This is as good as mountain biking gets! Such amazing terrain!

[@TheLoamRanger]

It's absolutely incredible out there!

[@PeeeeGeeeeTM]

I did almost the same stuff yesterday, super sick riding around there, pushed my limits as well. Keep the videos comin' really enjoying 'em and taking some of it as a guide, as it is my first time in BC. Cheers

[@Treslothan-paranormal]

Love this - beautiful woodlands (we have stuff like that in the UK) and your narration is so *human*

[@russellbritnell6731]

Your videos are awesome. Keep em coming!

[@TheLoamRanger]

Thanks Russell! Working on the next one right now (clearly I'm procrastinating right now).

[@94cdnm3]

Nice vid! Perfect timing since I am headed up in 2 weeks. Beautiful scenery and riding!

[@TheLoamRanger]

Carleton Kung thanks! Man you're in for a seriously good time.

[@didierja]

THATS an awesome ride! I’m supposed to be doing homework, but this video is more entertaining than my Dutch homework (YES I am a fan all the way from the Netherlands! Ga alsjeblieft door met je YT kanaal en blijf voor altijd mountainbiken (PLEASE continue your KZbin Channel and keep mountainbiking your entire Life) Ps. That was Dutch🙂

[@TheLoamRanger]

Nice! Glad you're liking the channel man. Cheers from Canada!

[@thephilosopherstoner]

Such a cool looking forest trail.

[@TheLoamRanger]

Ya the whole area is so gorgeous.

[@rampaage97]

Just found this channel and I'm loving it! a big inspiration for my own channel! do you run your gopro on wide, or superview setting? cos it looks great!

[@hogar9475]

Congrats on 1k subs!

Mike4Gaming thanks!

[@alexrobinson5584]

Most underrated mountain bike youtuber in the scene! keep up the awesome content man! and dont forget to send it! :)

[@marcusvan4310]

Awesome video. What was the first trail with all the skinny’s?

[@HarveyMiedreich]

This place looks amazing. Love this type of riding. Pretty jealous. Good call on the guide. He has good bike taste ;) And congratulations on the 1.1k lil hulkimaniacs.

[@TheLoamRanger]

Harvey Miedreich thanks Harvey! Ya rough and chunky is crazy fun, especially after a few days of flow trails. I feel like that Altitude can do just about anything!

[@willandemmie8702]

Nice job!

[@TheLoamRanger]

Thanks!

[@rossacolbert4842]

Great ride man those slabs look very steep keep on uploading great contes

[@TheLoamRanger]

Rossa Colbert the perfect blend between scary and fun. I'll keep the vids rolling!

[@078steve]

Awesome video keep the wheels turning

[@TheLoamRanger]

You bet man! Thanks

[@epicshangrila]

Wow this is so awesome 👊🏿👊🏿👊🏿👊🏿☺

[@TheLoamRanger]

Thanks! Such a fun ride.

[@scottrulander4567]

Nice riding! Glad you wore your helmet....

[@tryingnottocrash3]

do you do any color changes during editing? because the colors in your videos look amazing!

[@TheLoamRanger]

Thanks! I shoot using the "flat" setting in the Protune menu on the GoPro, then color correct in Davinci Resolve. It takes a little bit of work per video so I'm glad you notice the difference!

[@tryingnottocrash3]

The Loam Ranger for sure!

[@TheLoamRanger]

Wheelzz yup I do everything in Resolve. It's really come along, especially with the new 14 Beta version.

[@zachlegg6687]

The Loam Ranger keep up the great work. I know the extra work could get discouraging but you are producing great content and will have amazing success soon.

[@TheRapidoSetup]

Trying Not To Crash I

[@AltitudeAerials]

Holy tech trails batman! Those are just lush!! I guess squamish will be my next stop after Whistler next month. 1st time to both so really pumped! Btw, I just checked out their website, did you book for half a day or full day to cover those trails in this video?

[@scblurlt1962]

nice ride , out to squamish next month from the uk will be checking them out for sure

[@TheLoamRanger]

Neil Tilley nice! Definitely do that. If you check out my Strava profile, you can see the route we did. Have a good time!

[@scblurlt1962]

whats ur sträva handle mate ??

[@quithollerin7276]

Just the right amount of gnar for me.

[@TheLoamRanger]

Robert Douglas I second that haha

[@rootsandstones]

Awesome video! Those were my favorite trails in Squamish! Too bad you can't see how steep it is on video

[@andydennier6162]

Sweet ride.. which trail were you climbing to access those awesome trails? Of mice and men?

[@TheLoamRanger]

I believe so ya. It was beautiful!

[@jacobbond2471]

What trail did you climb to get to entrails?

[@alexanderpopik6780]

I was just in Squamish and I think he was our guide too

[@TheLoamRanger]

Nice! He’s awesome.

[@spacetaco1]

New to the channel . What bike is that ? Giant ?

[@jeromedicang846]

very steep!

[@TheLoamRanger]

To say the least!

[@samowamo10]

2 away from 14k!!!

[@TheLoamRanger]

Made it!

[@ballylama593]

haha "This is so steep". love hearing other peoples perspectives when they come here. You left out the whaleback on entrails, did you attempt it?

[@TheLoamRanger]

If it's not on video... then I'd say I probably skipped it haha

[@hyungceniza8746]

You won't believe this but i rode 3 trails there including in n out burger on a 99' Trek 6000 pretty unbelievable but legit

[@supaskier6295]

this is why you come to squamish *smack*

[@tamserenity]

For me it seems brakes work better once you heat them up quite a bit. Is that how you feel?

[@neemmol7734]

Jesus. It looks so steep. Hard climb

[@TheLoamRanger]

So fun though - definitely worth the climb

[@angusmt9846]

The gimbal is making so much noise!

[@JustinCaseWages]

Well done. Its nice to get a little out of your comfort zone. :)

[@TheLoamRanger]

Thanks man. It was great!

[@yuriboiblu]

im checking ridebc.ca now!

[@TheLoamRanger]

He's awesome! Book in a ride if you can.

[@hobmarg]

Great video... In n Out is awesome, but check your brake pads first! Hahaha

[@TheLoamRanger]

hobmarg you can say that again. I had brand new pads in too that just barely bedded in enough before I got to it.

[@kaysenklingler5110]

"That is why you come to Squamish right there!" *crashes "That is not why you come to Squamish!" 😂

[@TheLoamRanger]

Kaysen Klingler no one's ever called me graceful...

[@kingrat738]

Bike check!! Or... are you still running everything full stock? o_0 Please tell me you've at least ditched the Performance Schwalbes ;-P

[@TheLoamRanger]

King Rat gonna film that this week! Oh, the stock tires never made it off the showroom floor haha. Straight to Maxxis.

[@chubz8724]

What gear to you climb with

[@TheLoamRanger]

ok channels which ever gear that keeps my legs spinning at the right speed. It changes all the time on trails like these!

[@actionpactmadness8381]

What bike do you have?

[@TheLoamRanger]

I was riding this one: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nHSwdWWcadOHd9U but now I ride this one and *love* it: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aanYg4Rjj9J1l6s

[@baseman2305]

What sweather Are u wearing? I cant Find IT..

[@TheLoamRanger]

My jersey? I think I was wearing an old Raceface jersey in this one. It's about 15 years old so...I doubt you'll find it for sale anywhere :D

[@12makaiman]

You ride allot why havent i seen you ever meet up with seth, alex, and brian for a youtuber ride

[@TheLoamRanger]

Chris Lawrence oh you just wait :)

[@etwiro1159]

Noice

[@annemackenzie4257]

im from squamish

[@flissfloss915]

Does this guy have any gears?

[@TheLoamRanger]

+Hercules Mulligan I can't tell if you're being sarcastic or not haha.

[@UlsterPaddy1]

Id fall in the skunk cabbage for sure

[@TheLoamRanger]

+UlsterPaddy1 cabbage would be nice, but it was mostly granite :D

[@JMcKaySV]

Sorry but hardly any of that looks fun man aha

[@TheLoamRanger]

Haha guess you had to be there 😂

[@hobbes8737]

People really pay someone to guide them ? How pathetic

[@mtbjuky]

These are NOT the biggest slabs in Squam. Not.Even,Close #clickbait

[@DawsonBotsford]

I loved the trails, but this guide seems like a bore. He should consider talking with more volume, standing straighter, and cracking a few jokes. Perhaps I've watched too much Yoann Barelli lately

[@TheLoamRanger]

Haha James was maybe a little reserved that day. But go check out my latest Squamish vids with him - he’s a fun guy to ride with!

[@DawsonBotsford]

@@TheLoamRanger Right on, I believe you! You rode with him after all, not me 🙌
