[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

100% shot on the GoPro Max, get it directly from GoPro here at a discount to support me: prf.hn/l/OJpevBN

[@MYGiTHSE]

Sry the FOV didnt do it for me.. WAY too fisheyed :( Other than that, sick riding

[@cleggycyclist]

that's 1080p upscaled to 4k right?

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

@@cleggycyclist it’s 5.6k 360 footage on my desktop GoPro player app, but I think it scales down to 1080 when you frame it how you like, but then you can export in 4k ProRes to get this result. And my adobe premiere pro timeline is 4k

[@cleggycyclist]

​@@MarkMatthewsMTB thanks very much

[@melwalshmtb9121]

Man the speed and steez is unmatched. So motivated by you, especially to get out building

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

Love that!! Thanks so much.

[@pound_cake7296]

Man sooooo sick! The speed, style and steeze was off the charts 🔥! So cool so see Marin give you that prototype to go even bigger and faster now! For trail ideas, it would be cool to see a steep tech freeride trail done on that bike! Big drops in the trees with steep shoots into some new school jump lines and then high speed jank! Something along those lines. Can’t wait to see what you put together!👍🏻

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

Thanks so much! Glad you enjoy my riding. I like what you're thinking, I've been thinking the same... just need the spot.

[@DAV1D_77]

You do the best GoPro footage for MTB that I've seen! Something about it just makes it look so good!

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

Rad!! Thanks

[@IvanStarling-kg1ei]

I love this portal AC. We can move around the house. Definitely need it for the hot summer.

[@tomasstraka5244]

Im blown away by your riding abilities man.... seriously, so sick! 🤟🤟

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

Thank you so much 🙂🤟

[@joshward4712]

Beautiful pov! Love that you can see the you steezin it in the air!

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

Glad you like it!

[@stevethebutcher1776]

Man, just keep doing what your doing. It's pure radness! 😎

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

Thanks!!

[@ccb_232]

That booter at the beginning looks SO good. Great style!

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

It's so good! Thanks!!

[@larkspurphoenix9073]

That bike is so sick and it's awesome to see you ride it!!! As for what you should build, maybe just bigger ruggeder jumps and shoots, but whatever you decide to build it's going to be awesome because it always is!!! 😀🤙💪

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

Thanks for the tips!

[@MrMaxx._.]

Unbelievable fast and steezy! Would like to see you building a big on off lily pad!

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

Thanks!! That would be sick

[@davidcarrasquillo467]

You videos are always perfection, Nice work

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

Thank you very much!

[@vanceback7894]

One of your best vlogs yet imo I have to go ride now!!!!

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

Thanks so much! Go riding!!

[@natesome-lj1ep]

Wow I’m so impressed 😀😀😀

[@brentyancich]

Love your truck and new downhill bike. The go pro made the drop seem small , incredible trails you built 🙌

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

Classic gopro haha thanks!

[@micheandmikey]

I'm a beast on the climb, I can hit the DH at speed with most, it's the air, I wish I could float in the air like a cat! I just turned 50 so I guess there's no need for me to be doing that anymore anyway! 🤣 Sick video Mark!🤘

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

Thanks!! By the way, I hope to keep sending it at 50 if my body lets me 😂

[@landonlewis5918]

Love your stuff mark. You’re just such a strong and stylish rider. You deserve much more than 50k subs🙏

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

Wow thanks!

[@paulwintermute1495]

Warp speed tunnel vision! Unreal. Massive wooden booters for tricking in the middle of trails like your old trail.

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

That would be sick!

[@mounirnatour]

your way of riding and style of capturing is crazy good

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

Thanks so much! Glad you dig it.

[@jonathanberg1434]

Sick! Hope they‘ll call it the Quake

[@_Jake.From.Statefarm_]

So sick Mark!!! A shark fin gap like you did on over the tree stump but with a wooden wall built on the side of the tree. So pretty much an elevated wall ride. =)

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

Cool idea!

[@garycork5808]

You were fully hooking, that bike looks super fast. I wanna see huge jumps, big air..

[@darrenwilliams6827]

Yes lad,loving the new rig

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

So much

[@youling1997]

got my adrenaline rushed at 0:09

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

Best jump 🙌

That is one sick bike. I hope to see more videos of it

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

There will be for sure! Love this bike so much.

[@hogey74]

Whoa it's too early for this (0630, Brisbane) ... gonna watch the rest later. Just awesome footage of you flowing down the landscape mate. Awesome. Pouring like an avalanche. Coming down the mountain.

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

Thanks!! Stoked you like it

[@SecretSpots]

Duuuuude, you just got significantly faster. 🔥 So sick

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

🙏🙏

[@Jesiah5450]

That last run is INSANE. It looked like you were floating and bouncing down 😂😂. Dominating on a hardtail and a DH 🤙

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

That section of trail is so good!! Fastest part of the mountain

[@Digtoride]

That was nuts mate🔥🤘🏼 incredible speed🤯 Some big stepdowns or some On-off (jump or sharkfin to an on-off feature) features will be awesome to see you build man🤘🏼

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

Yes that would be rad!!

[@mtbslayer5506]

Huge more rampage style crazy features maybe more rockslabs and your usual super creative style of building jumps but scaled up to Prevost speeds!

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

That would be sick! I’m on the lookout for more slabs

[@kevinkunst4822]

such a smooth rider

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

Thanks 🙌

You were flyyyyyyyyyyying. Sick dude!

Some larger natural stump drops would be beauty

It sure how I’ll find that but I’ll look!! Haha

Keep up the good work Mark 👍

SICK man!!! Props!

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

Thank you!

[@DeluxPlays_]

Insane..

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

🙏🙂

[@michaelmann3636]

I think it’s less about the bike and more about the rider in your case. You could shred a Walmart Huffy. Awesome riding 👍

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

haha thanks!!! I should try a Walmart bike sometime and make a video LOL

[@Tomidsch]

love it but every time there is the smallest bit of air the whipping twisting he does really puts me off haha. just me, the guy is amazing the video is amazing

[@freshseeker]

Looking pinned! Lets see some cliff hucks and rock rolls

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

Yes!!

[@isaacarchibald5689]

Whale tail to big drop would be sick, love the video, you make me want to go ride my bike but unfortunately we have 3 ft of snow rn haha

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

Ugh melt snow!! Yea that would be sick I agree.

[@thenamesgert]

A tech line into some sort of road gap would be pretty sick

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

That would be dope for sure.

[@JohnDoe-fu4qd]

insane riding skills, youre a pro.

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

Thanks ✌️

[@user-zy5cl5oy8p]

Would be so cool to see you ride with Rémy Métailler ! btw great video

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

Remy and I will have to link up this year for sure.

[@Trail.Tracer]

jooo such great riding!

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

Thanks!

[@clonecommanderwoolfe5329]

Never seen you before but nice riding keep it going.

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

Thanks!!

[@KerronBrowne]

sick riding 🔥

[@immanuelunger201]

Huge step down

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

yes!!

[@Alan-75]

Marin always do great colour schemes unfortunately no enduro bikes with 27.5 wheels so they're ruled out for any future new bike purchase's which is a shame. Downhill bike looks mint loving the colour.

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

I think you’ll be stoked on the 2024 line up. All I’m allowed to say for now. 😉

[@antkodziej7318]

Bro! Sick POV, what camera are u using?

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

Thanks! The GoPro max. If you’re wanting one of these camera you can get a discount directly from GoPro using my link: prf.hn/l/OJpevBN

[@scottheatherfettes1865]

Dude it would be so cool if you could build a step on step off but just have four or five of them in a row built out of dirt just like a bunch of Lily pads in succession going downhill.

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

OH that would be so sick. Time to start looking for a spot.

[@auomauom]

features id like to see is a loop to gap jump

[@crazyluke]

You really blow my mind with this footage. It looks like I would die on the next tree and you just blow through the woods like Speedy Gonzalez. This is insane! I miss more close up shots and details on the bike. What ist mounted to the bike?

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

Thank you! Check out the video before the one I uploaded before this, it’s a detail bike check!

[@richhoward7050]

This GoPro footage looks incredible! The wide angle of the Max, combined with the perspective of mounting to your visor gives a great sense of the terrain, speed, and skill

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

Thanks! Yea I'm really digging this camera setup

[@corymcmanues7905]

I would love to see you make a gnarly drop into a booter, that would be pretty awesome. Question about the prototype, did they tell you how much travel the frame has, and can you share with us?

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

I can't share those details yet but I will share what I can as soon as I can! We are in the beginning of the testing phases now so they don't want to define the bike yet.

[@TMaddison]

looks like a fun bike :)

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

Such a blast

[@tanguydh05]

You have the best field of view on KZbin ! Where you put the gopro max? On chesplate ou helmet?

sick video!Do you use a chest mount or a chin mount?One of the best looking gopro footage i ever seen

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

Thanks! Chin mount with the gopro max here. You can get a deal on one at my link here :) prf.hn/l/OJpevBN

[@victorbergstrom2371]

A shark fin in to a noter shark fin 🙏

any plans to try a mini-mullet: 27.5, 26?

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

That would be sick to try! Maybe possible to do on the rifty

[@IvanStarling-kg1ei]

How does this bike ride on wet beach sand Just wondering if the gears hold up in salt and sandy conditions.

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

Nope

[@chaconWOOOOOO]

🎉🎉

[@anthonybustos2204]

Do you like the mullet setups?

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

Mullets are my favorite. Especially being a rider with short legs, I can’t hang with 29” rear wheels haha

[@anthonybustos2204]

@@MarkMatthewsMTB ha makes since, I am taller and havent hit ass on wheel but I know it makes the bike more playful. I have a YT capra 29er you think if I mullet it with the high chip I should be good or does buying a mullet specific bike make a huge difference? I prefer to have just one bike

[@chasemtb]

Do you mount your gopro max to your chest? or your helmet? if its your helmet, is it a chin mount of a visor mount?

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

I mix it up! All my settings and tips are here: invite.bublup.com/5_Ivy_gzwuGN

that perspective looks bad, horizon is too distorted and jumps seem tiny

Really? This is the biggest I’ve managed to make these jumps look with a GoPro 😂

@@MarkMatthewsMTB boy we must have some different eyes then :) in order to not be a whiny little bitch, i'll say that the speed looks crazy fast in these settings :) cheers!

[@patricksprojects]

As a photographer, I could only take maybe 2 mins of the GoPro fisheye. Pass

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

Good to know! This is one of my best performing POV videos ever. However, the people who don’t like this, really don’t like this so I’ll continue to post hero footage from chest mount as well. 🙏
