First Time Riding Mammoth Bike Park | California Mountain Biking Trail Guide

[@yowzers8940]

9:27 this part made me laugh so hard because it sounded it’s like you were listening to calming music on your ride and then an ad blasts in your ears lol

[@TheOutsiderMTB]

😬🙋🏻‍♂️

[@lukerowe5607]

So crazy how you can go from beaches to the forest mountains of Santa Cruz to rolling hills in the central part of Cali to mountains in less than 5 hours

[@TheOutsiderMTB]

I think about that all the time Luke.

[@jacob_lindstrom]

Aww man, watching this makes me miss mammoth! I can't wait for the park to open next year!

[@TheOutsiderMTB]

Same!

[@mongooseman310]

Nice you cold turkey 🦃 Bullet in the middle from Boomerang those treetrunk drops are Savage too

[@georgek1518]

A lot of the trails looked loose, soft and sandy, I've never been to Mammoth. Your videos are very entertaining, I can't wait to see more new ones and the older ones also. Thanks.

[@TheOutsiderMTB]

George - appreciate hearing that with such a new channel I've started here. Mammoth has a different type of dirt for sure. And thanks for sticking around! :)

[@Combat556]

Glad you survived the black diamond stuff. My favorite trails around Mammoth Mtn are Beach Cruiser, Paper Route, and Downtown. The higher you get on the mountain, the more pumice you get into and it’s slippery. Be careful. Hope you get a chance to ride the Flume Trail in Tahoe…epic! Stay safe, and thanks for taking us along. 😊

[@vin374]

I’m in the Bay Area and ride Mammoth every summer. Love it

[@TheOutsiderMTB]

I'll be back this year for sure.

[@troymd5239]

I'm in napa and heading up for the first time this summer

[@vin374]

Go late Aug. there will be a ton of snow up there still

[@koacrampton9373]

I went to mammoth mountain 2 years ago to go mtb. The trails are awesome.

[@RemedyTalon]

I live an hour away from mammoth, I'm going to have to pay it a visit but never been to a bike park like this. Thank you for the guide.

[@TheOutsiderMTB]

Good stuff - enjoy!

[@johnmurphy4989]

You need to get back there, lots more fun trails you missed.

[@murvin1]

Awesome video. Love going up to Mammoth every year. You were on Bullet for those log drops and rock garden, not Boomerang.

[@TheOutsiderMTB]

Good to know. Was my first time here it was tough keeping track of all of the trail names. Can't wait to head back up. Thanks for watching!

[@fredman1085]

Skied there once I. The 80's and mtb raced once in the 90's. it is a cool park and it's great to see how much they've expanded for riders. Fun video btw. I wish I was closer to it.

[@TheOutsiderMTB]

Thanks!

[@GoneNoMad]

We are heading to Mammoth next week for our first bike park trip! Stoked and nervous. Thanks for the cool perspective and good edit. Keep the rubber down Tony!

[@TheOutsiderMTB]

GoneNoMad Thanks for watching and have a blast!

[@frankmijares7668]

Hello, franks pickle barrelass, dude, that was hilarious!!!! Great video.

[@TheOutsiderMTB]

Haha! Finally someone got that - I thought it was just me and my weird sense of humor. Thanks for watching Frank. Sell me a pickle. ;)

[@jasper_of_puppets]

11:08 Did you ever go back and hit The Drop on Flow on the left? From what I can tell, the drop looks much scarier than it is because of the looong downhill landing, so when you're going over the drop, the ground seems so far away from you, but when hit with moderate speed, it's 'only' about a 5-6 ft drop.

[@TheOutsiderMTB]

I haven’t been back yet but will be there again soon. Thanks for the heads up!

[@ezrastevenson5417]

jasper_of_puppets its more like 12 foot from where you actually land

[@theofficialultimatereviewer]

Enjoyed watching your video. I live in Tahoe, but looking to try the Mammoth Bike Park blind, lol. Thanks for the video, look forward to watching the next!

[@TheOutsiderMTB]

Thanks Michael this was one of my first vids. Enjoy bud!

[@hunterschultz8606]

Goin to mammoth next week seems fun!

[@TheOutsiderMTB]

Enjoy!

[@hunterschultz8606]

@@TheOutsiderMTB oh thank you for the heart =3. Any ways I havent been mountain biking in 2 weeks what are some fun easy trails i could start out at?

[@TheOutsiderMTB]

Fullerton Loop.

[@TheOutsiderMTB]

Mammoth I’m not sure.

[@hunterschultz8606]

@@TheOutsiderMTB ok thank you!

[@afiera90]

Easy to install and to use

[@robmock2296]

Dope ride

[@2004RS4]

Love Mammoth in the winter, gotta try some MTB up there!

[@TheOutsiderMTB]

👊✔️

[@troymd5239]

Love the video, I'll be going there soon.

[@TheOutsiderMTB]

Sweet!

[@levankirvalidze4803]

Haha, your bikes hub is so load almost like small engine in the bike. Good video, informative and honest as always. Cheers.

[@TheOutsiderMTB]

New bike’s much quieter haha. Thx Levan.

[@mmundon2011]

Big thanks for sharing this. We've been taking our little kids to the bike park, for the last 2 years, trying to build their biking skills; so, haven't had a chance to see the more advanced trails. On our way out of the park, a black bear crossed the road and walked right across the Downtown bike trail, which we rode several times, over the last few days. Any tips on mountain bike/bear encounters?

[@TheOutsiderMTB]

Thanks for watching. I’d trust a quick google search before my advice. In SoCal I’m more worried about the lions. 😉

[@pvillaluna1]

Really enjoying your channel!

[@TheOutsiderMTB]

Really appreciate that! Thanks for sticking around. 😉

[@stevenleflar5152]

Man I love your videos. I can’t wait to get back into mountain biking. A knee injury has been bothering me for years, and I’m getting it fixed soon. Btw, what are your thoughts on the niner RIP 9?

[@TheOutsiderMTB]

Hey Steven, Thanks for watching and the great feedback. Injuries are super frustrating - been there for sure. Hang in there - the bike's still waiting for you. I haven't looked into the RIP 9 yet, but I'll check it out.

[@MrChristopher007]

Depends on how much you can spend...I say for the same $ you can get an Ibis or pivot

[@TuroVJ]

Flow looks like it would be AWESOME if it had some hero dirt on it😁👌🏼

[@TheOutsiderMTB]

Yep!

[@alfredo74k5blazer]

Wow. Looks awesome dude

[@TheOutsiderMTB]

Thanks Alfredo!

[@shlomogrundy]

great video

[@dhrracer]

I have only been to Mammoth once but I do believe there are trails that go back to town so no need to ride the road.

[@maiaracarvalho6573]

Duane White yep, it’s called the Downtown trail

[@RodrigoGarciactg]

Dope video man!

[@TheOutsiderMTB]

Glad you liked it!

[@cesarmayorga8257]

Going next month!

[@TheOutsiderMTB]

NICE!

[@cesarmayorga8257]

The Outsider MTB what’s your favorite bike park in CA and why?

[@TheOutsiderMTB]

@@cesarmayorga8257 Depends on the day. I like Skypark a lot because it's so unique.

[@modernoutlaw4307]

I want to come ride with you!!

[@dotanswisa1442]

Great videos, love you channel.

[@TheOutsiderMTB]

Thanks Dotan! Appreciate you being a part of it. 👊🏼

[@canadianoversee-r5937]

Looks long and fun but thats no Double Black.. come ride in BC Canada.

[@TheOutsiderMTB]

Check my Canada playlist.😉 This was years ago. I get it. 👍

[@sandiegojody]

Hello, What elbow pads are you wearing? They seem to drop while you’re riding. I’m in the market for some and wanna make sure I don’t buy those one.

[@JasonsFuhst]

Any chance you can recommend a pet friendly place in Mammoth to stay, this weekend?

[@TheOutsiderMTB]

I haven’t been here in a couple years. Sorry.

[@peter.meiavlogs]

Insane bra!!!

[@ahyeaman]

Any recommendations for a decent entry level bike to get? I biked a lot growing up but I want something for this kind of riding now that Im in CA. I was looking at the Diamondback Line, Overdrive 29,and Atroz 1. Can't really decide.

[@TheOutsiderMTB]

So I’m it to experienced in the entry level bikes but it looks like you’re on the right path. Check out the GT line up as well. Some great entry levels there as well.

[@glassbarrel]

Thanks for all the videos Outsider!! One of these days I’ll be able to say what’s up at Fullerton loop. It’s my backyard too.

[@TheOutsiderMTB]

Awesome and looking forward to it! 👍

[@iamjmp]

Bro you sound like Ferris bueler 😂. Vids are great. How do you adjust so fast on trails you’ve never been to?

[@TheOutsiderMTB]

I’ll take the Ferris thing as a compliment. Haha. I just try to handle what’s in front of me. 😉 Thanks for tuning in!

[@karennay5993]

Anyone who rides Mammoth mtn needs to ride the Kamikaze, super fast.

[@MarsOG310]

My home away from home! Never hit the bike trails, always been a dream too.

[@TheOutsiderMTB]

Good time for sure.

[@getaroundmtb6619]

Cool video. Looks pretty loose.

[@TheOutsiderMTB]

It was - thanks for watching!

[@jimmyw211]

Will be in California end April early May 2020, do you think Mammoth will be open by then?

[@TheOutsiderMTB]

Don’t think so. Lots of snow this year.

[@jimmyw211]

@@TheOutsiderMTB Thanks for the update.

[@maiaracarvalho6573]

I’m pretty sure the bike park only opens in June (mid to late- depending on snow conditions)

[@jloucks7]

What are the rules of any bike park Engine you have to wear a helmet or what's the deal

[@TheOutsiderMTB]

Yeah helmet for sure but recommend knee pads and elbows as well.

[@Whiteknuckler57]

Where did you mount your Gopro - looks to me like a chest mount

[@TheOutsiderMTB]

I have it attached to a gimbal on my chest. Yup chest mounted. I use the EVO SS 3-axis gimbal connected to a chest harness and put the gopro in that. Only way to get super smooth video on the bike. ;)

[@zjtheman]

How fast are you going?

[@TheOutsiderMTB]

Not fast enough haha...

[@godisbetter7]

What bike is that

[@TheOutsiderMTB]

YT Jeffsy

[@jakesouthard9175]

Wouldn't be california riding unless it was a loose as an Amsterdam street after dark

[@TheOutsiderMTB]

Hahaha

[@delang65]

Mammoth is always so beat to shit they don’t do any trail maintenance
