[@SamReynolds26]

Enjoy guys, hope you like it!!

[@nakitojimo2001]

This what brought me into MTB scene. Greetings from Indonesia!

[@mattcurran7526]

Ha ha ! Insane !

[@kenezygabor]

Beast mode on🤙🤘👊!!!

[@Morevie]

Sickest highlights so far, those drone shots are sick !!

[@alcidesrodriguez9986]

Amazing Sam! Keep making history and focus of inspiration with this passion ...great and insane work of you , Nico Vink and all the team to create this and share it💣💥💣💥💣💥💣💥💣💥exactly what we need to see all in this material...2019 looks awesome ...the best vibes from Madrid Spain 💣💥💣💥💣💥💣💥💣

[@agustinechevarria8048]

that double backflip on that big gap is probably the best thing Ive ever seen in biking

[@joeterrasi3826]

I was just thinking how crazy that was... 90ft double backflip attempt. Was trying to find comparable MX double back flip at that distance... either way... that guy was totally out of focks.

[@agustinechevarria8048]

Joe Terrasi to him the jump is resi😂😂

[@danaminyip]

and his homie is in the air also!

[@blpvisuals]

@@joeterrasi3826 dont quote me on this but pretty sure fmx riders only ever do doubles on the small jumps at fmx comps which are like 50-70 foot maybe so this could be the biggest double ever attempted on any kind of bike

[@o0oHowlo0o]

This is the craziest shit I've seen. Props to whoever edited this, they smashed it. Man you seriously can't beat those drone shots. All round incredible

[@ewaldstander766]

Agree, but that soundtrack tough...

[@Mtbmxing]

“How does he always survive” LOL

[@noeljochum]

Best Jumps Best riders Best filmer Best music Best Editing It all comes together 😍😍

Massive sends and some spicy DnB. Love the vibes coming from this. Not everything has to metal af

[@chrislubrown]

i sure love my metal, but i thought the music they used also worked for the visuals here!

[@hobmarg]

Hospital Records vibes (also a metal fan but this works so well).

[@iwantanewbike]

@@hobmarg all about Hospital 🙌

[@cliftonjames785]

Totally, I'm a huge metal head but sometimes metal isn't great ALL the time. However, some as I lay dying or in flames would go great with this video lol

[@__m37]

Best FEST so far!!! Editing and music was awesome!! Dope video overall!!!!

[@SergeiPringiers]

That sick hip transfer at 2:30 !

[@Dev42O]

Actually my favourite mtb video of all time! Absolutely sick filming and editing and the music perfectly suits the vibe. Killed it!

[@lukavsoundseeker1642]

Jaw dropping! Damn.... I'm 35 and after two knee surgeries and now i got into MTB!?!? Maybe 10 years back I would have the balls and health to do what You do guys! Well I'll keep things on my level of riding, while watching and admiring what You guys doing! 🤘LEGENDS!

[@rokaxiv]

2:12 that winded me

[@garethshears3829]

That's so sick and love the crash section music 😂😂

[@LooseRidersTV]

mind = blown again !!!!

[@olliefergusson]

Next level all round, and that first clip of Nico is absolute filth!!

[@bennokullmer2941]

The riding is soo badass, but the music doesnt fit... why is there no metal?

[@adrenalinemadness3340]

FiftyShapes OfRamps that’s exactly what I’m saying it just doesn’t go, it doesn’t hype you as much as last year’s festival just because of the music but still sick asf but unfortunately it’s not the kind of video I will go back every day just to get that rush and emotions as I do with the last year video

[@bennokullmer2941]

@@adrenalinemadness3340 Im a fan of the "darkness series" since the first video and metal was a big part of it and now it feels like a complete diffrent event

[@adrenalinemadness3340]

FiftyShapes OfRamps exactly

[@richf8879]

It's not there because we aren't in to 90s anymore

[@adrenalinemadness3340]

Rich f88 but metal has been used in previous videos perhaps it was used in the 2017 and 2018 darkfest video so the year it’s pretty much irrelevant metal is metal and hypes you up

[@owlaps]

Siiiiiiiiiiiick!!!

[@silschnee9108]

big respect!!! super sick

[@Eshmernal]

Boys did it again hell yeah🤘

[@JordanH859]

Wild as always! Was expecting something a bit more...metal though I must say

Favorite downhill video so far ^-^ Ps: Andreu is the SHIT!!!

The stoke is strong!!!

[@Adilstrenght]

Yıllar sonra yorumuma bakıcağım, bakalım bir başarı elde etmişmiyim.

[@agustinechevarria8048]

the real problem with this video is that the music is not synchronized right with the tricks or beats or the moves they do on the bike, i dont know how to explain it

[@haerolol]

Настоящее безумие! Likeeee

[@jameswilman1490]

Am I the only one who prefers this one over the 2020 one music way better

[@YaroslavChunikhovsky]

Вы там все сумасшедшие ребята!!!!!! Я вас обожаю))))))))))))

[@juzwe2659]

Sick edit! I like the music, something different 🤙

[@adrenalinemadness3340]

Mmm idk about that it’s called darkfest for a reason so it’s expected to be some hardcore metal, I honestly don’t like that music in this kind of video it doesn’t go with the video and doesn’t hype me as much as last year’s darkfest festival as this year but the crash section haha that was a good touch

[@ajunglist9701]

Some Dark dnb then. Tech itch - Contaminate should do it

[@clintmellis4960]

@@adrenalinemadness3340 It kind of pissed me off that it didn't have any rock or metal and just techno crap

[@cliftonjames785]

@@adrenalinemadness3340 I'm the opposite. Metal music absolutely hypes me up and I think some metalcore would fit this video perfectly. However, the song isn't bad

[@rawclaw5333]

What would happen if Fest Series meets Red Bull Rampage?

[@ThePainterAL]

I'll do you one better: How much Rampage will improve and be more enjoyable if it was organized and run fully by riders and not some sad dudes in Red Bull?

[@rtvardovski]

Jack Fox this is why the Fest Series were born

[@bryanrizo8038]

Monster mountain biking is wayy more intense that Red Bull.

[@crediblemulk4638]

Damn, I wish I was 25 again. Quite happy to stick to Morzine and Woburn for my thrills tho and then watching these guys shred. Fantastic riding.

[@approachingfreedom8081]

Fuck yes so crazy. That last train was insane and that side by side flip on the step up was one of the coolest things I've ever seen
