Rupert is the Perfect Trail for All Skill Levels

[@raiatea76]

One trail, one shot, no bullsh*t, I like the these short unedited videos! Keep it up! Btw, this trail looks amazing! ;)

[@DaleStone]

Thanks! Yeah I'm definitely a fan of the one-shot raw top to bottom videos, although some trails are just too scary to ride without getting off and taking a look at things haha.

[@Chubacca838]

Wow that's actually an amazing little gem!

[@BasicBodThor]

One of my favorites in Squamish :)

[@davidkline4372]

Another kick ass trail... So jealous!

[@ClaireR823]

nice job i got to check that trail out

[@anthonycongiano8890]

Brilliant! Thanks for not jump cutting ... we got to enjoy the entire ride in real time!

Coincidentally this vid was pushed to my feed today. Since Rupert is on my list of trails to give a try this weekend, of course I had to re-watch it! Anyway, it seems like your conditioning now is noticeably better than three years ago when this was filmed. 🤘

[@DaleStone]

Haha, I definitely took winters a lot easier back then, and have a lot more descending practice now!

[@nicks2716]

@@DaleStone it shows - both the improved downhill skill and, like I said, conditioning. Nice work.

[@ghouse23]

you guys were cruising. nicely done great video

[@DaleStone]

Thanks Ruben!

[@venivelovici]

Nice vid! I just rode that for the first time last year. Pretty crazy that it's running in February.

[@DaleStone]

Absolutely zero snow at Alice Lake right now. Legendary conditions if you can make it out!

[@wpf312]

Killer trail. My intro to BC and it kicked my butt lol. Had a blast on Leave of Absence though! Entrails was brutal too ha! Nice vid.

[@DaleStone]

Entrails is definitely a bit janky in spots haha. An acquired taste, if you will.

[@FelixGluschenkov]

Love it!

[@DaleStone]

Thanks Felix, I imagine you'd quite like this trail.

[@RobC97]

wow so sick my heart was racing watching this. i just moved to town and need something more beginner than this haha

[@brucemacneil]

Very nice.

[@DaleStone]

Thanks Bruce!

[@mtbmeyer2016]

Nice work!

[@DaleStone]

Cheers Meyer!

[@mtbmeyer2016]

What tires are you running on this terrain? I'm headed out there in May and want to be prepared.

[@DaleStone]

@@mtbmeyer2016 I personally run 2.6" DHFs front and rear, as I like to feel like I'm cornering on rails and don't need the extra braking grip. Minions are always a safe bet. I wouldn't go less than a High Roller II front and an Aggressor rear, if that helps.

[@mtbmeyer2016]

Thanks for this.

[@ridinreiners]

Trailforks rates this as a black diamond trail so it isn’t for all skill levels. Best not to mislead beginners as someone could get hurt.

[@DaleStone]

Could you clarify how I have mislead?

[@ridinreiners]

@@DaleStone Well, it’s a black diamond trail. Your title says it’s for all skill levels and it isn’t. That’s all. I clicked on the video because of the title.

[@DaleStone]

That's the reason I included a full length, top to bottom run so that riders can make their own educated decision on whether they're ready. 🙂
