Day One Of The Youtuber Whistler EWS 100

[@DailyMTBRider]

Now that you saw how day 1 went, what are your predictions for day 2? *hint hint* - it rained a lot!

[@simmo4768]

Paul might take the win for day 2. Most of the English mountainbike videos I watch it always seems to be raining and they love it. And if he sings to himself on the way down he's twice as fast

[@JZMartinez]

@@simmo4768 That singing trick is legit! :-) Been using it since seeing his vid.

[@DailyMTBRider]

@@simmo4768 We'll just have to wait and see what happens!

[@sdoobzfishing2308]

I feel like the rain probably brings everyones times closer together, Cant wait for that video!

[@PaulThePunter]

simmo don’t worry, I’m Canadian now 😂

[@TheLoamRanger]

Isn’t it crazy how the road sections were the toughest on the body? My hands were destroyed after those straightaways!

[@DiegoLopez-oi8gt]

Curious as to why that was? Breaking bumps, lots of gravel, really lose?

[@jill22]

Great riding. You're getting better all the time! Please show the whole stage next time. I hope you guys and more KZbinrs can do this again next year.

[@jcdapiroc6872]

You didn't make it to the finish. Hehe but still proud fan here.

[@haunted_wolf5649]

For me it’s always my back for some reason

[@ToogyHowser]

Awesome riding dude! That was a LONG stage! I like how you risked everything including your life just to pass Paul! haha

[@DJ-sg8fc]

The dedication was strong

[@nofrontbrakes]

Dude, I was washing my dishes as I watched this video, and I had to stop and give it my full attention. You were slamming over everything!

[@DailyMTBRider]

Haha no dish cleaning allowed while washing! I was for sure going for gold!

[@alexthemtbr]

Yank for the triple to avoid death next time 😂

[@DailyMTBRider]

Haha if only I had the skill and guts! But anything is better than what I did!

[@huntstyle]

Hahaha!

[@neal8777]

I underestimated you! Great job, Josh.

[@DailyMTBRider]

You're not the only one Neal!

[@IthacaDon]

Well done Josh. Camera work was excellent really got a feel of the speed and how steep and technical the trails were. Audio was great too. Very little wind noise and you weren't out of breath to talk!

[@DailyMTBRider]

Thanks Donal! I was happy to share the ride with you all!

[@LiftedAdventures]

Kick butt Josh!!! You did so awesome man. Super pumped for all of yall to be able to race that.

[@deanhenthorn8674]

Great video broski. Love the attitude and narration on the way down. My hands hurt just from watching.

[@DailyMTBRider]

Thanks man! I knew I had to keep things interesting for you guys!

[@norcaltrailrides5550]

Constant day ending situation scenarios stacked up. This was a great show man🤟🏼. I went with a little larger grip with some beef in them to hopefully dampen the park bumps on the hands and relive the cramp hands. We will see what that does. Great run- impressive

[@PaulThePunter]

Cor blimey, what a bit o' bike riding eh?

[@mattgies]

I hope your camera got a good angle on that insane pass/near crash by Josh!

[@adriankozubal5481]

if your running maxxis, i personally would be running DD casing.

[@TrailBreaker]

Wow! What an awesome trail to race! Great job, Josh👊 There’s your fist bump!

[@OutdoorGold]

You kept getting better and better as the stage drug on!

[@DailyMTBRider]

That's far better than getting worse!

[@FatGuyBiking]

Dude that was absolutely amazing props to all you guys that was insane. Nice ad break placement too my heart skipped a beat for you. But looks like my prediction of you crushing Top of the World with jordan was bang on I thought maybe your downieville experience might have played a roll with that. But wow that was some insane riding out of all you guys great job!! BTW did you ever find out who dropped you guys?

[@DailyMTBRider]

thanks man! And yeah the guy who dropped us dropped Brian, Eric, Ryan, Me, Paul, and Nic - dude was nuts!

[@bike_somm]

Killer!! That was exactly as fun as I had hoped! May need to make that trek up north next year & see what it’s all about! Great riding guys!

[@TheCrashingDad]

15:26 #sponsorsdream ! dude... that was amazing! congrats on 2nd!

[@DailyMTBRider]

Haha gotta love the sponsors! And thanks man!

[@wadepratt9654]

Very nice riding man. Just keep doin whatever your doing. Cant wait to see the next rounds. Great job🤘

[@harrygrimley4352]

That was awesome. Great job Josh. I thought I was the only one whos hands go numb.

[@jamesclemons18]

Great video. Great Ride. Fooled me. I really didn't think you'd place that high up. Boostmaster seems to practically live at Whistler. Placing right behind him is really good.

[@jaredgulaga8367]

WOW props to you for racing that nonetheless doing so well! Your endurance is insane!

[@themidnightrider6805]

Wow!!!! Dude you kicked ASS!!!! Super stoked for you!

[@BackyardShredder]

Two things it amazes me that in races after 25 minutes of riding you guys were all separated by basically 2.5 minutes. And secondly you made me have a mini heart attack after you passed Paul and went noise heavy; that camera pitched forward, and oh my goodness.

[@DailyMTBRider]

My life flashed before my eyes, that's for sure!

[@Wizler71]

After you passed Paul you were FLYING into the trees!

[@middleagedmediocremountain4767]

Nice job - you were flying at 8:50 wowzers...and lots of rain I think gives you an edge thanks to all of our wet bellingham rides! 😂

[@andrewmartinez5831]

KZbin ad popped in right as you entered No Joke... "Lady, I don't care about your Italian pasta! Where's Josh? Did he make it?" Other than that, great video man! Looking forward to the remaining recap videos from the rest of the riders.

[@middleagedmediocremountain4767]

Andrew Joseph Martinez same happened when I watched...I got through the ad, it had to back it up to see that entrance in real time.

[@BermUnit]

Buddy! You turned that doubt inside out and sent it like you meant it! THAT was good riding! I think the self-affirmations, Natcho Libre quotes, and positive attitude helped you huge! I like how you referred to yourself in the third-person. If ya smeeeeellllllll...what The Josh...is cookin'!

[@DailyMTBRider]

Haha thanks man! I needed all the motivation I could get!

[@bigslacker666]

Nice work! Holy crap that nose down after passing Paul. Lucky to ride that one out dude!

[@flotownstick2992]

Thanks for getting this out so quickly. Awesome run!

[@kevinwilleford7876]

Well played man, well played! Looking forward to the next episode!

[@veganvagabond]

Great job! That must have been really hard. Makes me want to ride Top of the World so much!

[@andrewbeveridge9178]

Your entry to the woods at 8:50 was mega sketchy speed! I watched it coming thinking 'ooooohh boy he must see something I don't' then you said 'I almost died there' lol

[@sdoobzfishing2308]

That run looked awesome! the trails looked to be running well, you didn't even look that tired :-)

[@mrrims]

That looks like so much fun!! Great riding man.

[@simmo4768]

Nice run, very fast. Looks like its going to be a close race between you and Jordan

[@dankeppler137]

Shockingly close times for a 25 min stage. Nice job.

[@ASJK20]

Holy crap dude, thank god you didn’t fall into no joke trail. that would’ve been so bad, I held my breath for a second 😳. Great riding and great video, you were moving!! 🤘🏽

[@willbennett7107]

My arms are tired just watching well done mate for finishing

[@davidmaco1]

super cool series with all your guys different view points

Thanks Dave! It’s been fun to see everyone else’s videos!

[@RiderDon]

Wow Josh 😳 that was fast and focused. Awesome race ma man too bad I didn’t catch you at Whistler I was there last weekend until Tuesday.

[@TylerBoothGolf]

Is it just me or do I really want Whistler to be open by now?! Day dreaming will soon turn into reality! Excited for some 2020 riding!

[@daveandmerlin]

Wicked video ! To be fair I thinks one of the hardest EWS because of the sheer length of it not of technical ability needed . The top part looks pretty easy just obviously hard to keep the pace up and there only seemed to be technical hard once down near the bikepark . Looked brilliant fun and hope one day to be there !

[@DailyMTBRider]

Just wait till day 2, I’d argue it’s the hardest for multiple reasons!

[@daveandmerlin]

@@DailyMTBRider it looks a brilliant trail and all the other stuff you have shown ....you are a lucky man to have such good riding near to you . Love from England

[@1212dsc]

More Nacho Libre! That was awesome!

[@huntstyle]

Nice riding man! I can't imagine 30 minutes of straight DH with no break! Glad you didn't crash right after you passed Paul! Yikes!

[@VanCan]

You killed it!

[@DailyMTBRider]

It was a beast, that’s for sure! You killed it as well my friend!

[@JuanCarlosTapia]

I remember how tired my hands/arms got, too many bumps for way too long going down, legs no problem. Congrats great run.

[@1powercom]

Great Video , you guys are quick but for me it puts into perspective how good the pros are top men at sub 20 mins on that stage and the top ladies beet you guys also by around a couple of minutes them girls are quick !!! looking forward to the next video

Nice riding Josh. Looking forward to part 2

Way to go, Josh! I like to think that everyone watching collectively clenching their buttocks going into No Joke helped you hold on for dear life. 😳😂

[@DailyMTBRider]

I felt the clenching in more than one way 😂

[@thatmtbguy9396]

Good ole arm pump and dead hands. You did good dealing with it

[@brunohd4254]

Great job, you were flying down that stage. When you passed Paul and went into the trees just as the camera panned down and I was like "oh no" it cut to an ad..lol..perfect suspense moment there. I can't imagine someone going faster, did you find out who that person was that passed you? 🤯

Your riding was so good in the first stage can’t say anything about the others yet though but maybe you can do a review on like some rev grips or anti pump devices and see if they actually help I’ve been looking into rev grips but don’t know if it’s worth it

[@PHXBIKING]

Good job man👍

[@saintberry]

Looked quick and clean. Clean is all you can ask for on a stage like that, no mechanicals and no crashes. Were you running flats or clips for a trail like that?

[@mattjax1330]

Hey just a quick question I couldn’t find any info online. I know in most ews events you pedal to your stages so an enduro bike (as the name of the race series suggests) would make sense but here you are taking a lift up so I was wondering are you allowed to race with a dh bike in this event because I feel as if It would give u an advantage. I rode top of the world once and was on a dh bike and def appreciated It

[@DailyMTBRider]

We had to do 4800 ft of climbing in day 2, but yes you can use a DH bike!
