Hog Trails on Hardtails - It's a Hardtail Party in Sedona, AZ - Hardtails on Hard Trails

[@tonyboughman8050]

There's a lot to like about this video. The best thing is the absence of "music"! Thanks!

[@abuzman123]

That is such a challenging trail, you guys are animals. Epic bail at 12:13 Steve, and I am in awe of your tenacity but you’ve got to love those knee pads. 👍 to all!

[@hardtailparty]

those knee pads saved me!

[@WildOutdoorLiving]

That's why I love flat pedals. For that ability to jump off the bike when needed!

[@hardtailparty]

Exactly. I wouldn't have attempted a few of these if I had been clipped in.

[@claydogmadman7843]

Hardtails forever... 2019 Trek Marlin 7 and proud of it... Thanks for the video...🚵🚴🚵

[@sparks701]

Outstanding riding to the whole group. Great to see everyone helping and cheering on each other. And glad to see you survived and cleaned that rough spot.

[@hardtailparty]

Man, what a cool group and a fun day. We had a blast.

[@johnbravo7542]

These guys are awesome!

[@bass-player.22]

great video I really enjoy watching you pushing hard tails and showing anything is possible on them thanks I love my hard tail

[@dereksmith3632]

Definitely gonna watch this again, especially because of that single speed. Man I'm glad you didn't get hurt to bad, that looked rough. This is a good vid dude !

[@binitshrestha8032]

The rsd reminds me of my commencal ramones al1 from 2013 bright in sight and performance! Would love riding these trails on my ragley mmmbop!

[@EricF1984]

That trail was gnar AF. Looks so fun. Someday I'd love to head to Sedona and get some of that. I love these videos of you guys sessioning the tough stuff. Stoked you walked away from that crash. That was scary.

[@hardtailparty]

It's a burly trail for sure. Hit me up when you come to sedona, I'd love to show you around.

[@tysonmcclead9309]

Best video to date and I’m looking forward to the next.

[@chameleonpogono]

Big thumbs up for everyone having each other's back. Great group ride there! Glad you and everyone else is ok from the spills along the way. Still would like to ride there, despite the falls.

[@acegardner4425]

Wow u r amazing Steve! Blessings on that fall u did that like a BOSS! So glad u did not get hurt. U make these trails look so easy, the danger element is rarely felt. Send it!

[@hardtailparty]

What's amazing is how lucky I was! It was like slow-motion falling down there. It could have ended very badly for me. I'm super greatful I didn't break a bone or worse...

[@workhorsemtb7075]

Looks super fun!

[@OutdoorGold]

Fun video Steve! Solid HT riding!

[@hardtailparty]

thanks brother. I'd really like to ride with you someday.

[@thorny_tuber2128]

Dude that was epic. Glad you’re ok. Great vid. 👍

[@franciscoiranramosvalenzue9440]

Buen vídeo y como siempre paisajes muy hermosos, saludos desde Sinaloa México.

[@hardtailparty]

saludos amigo

[@JimCockerham]

Woah! Steve, that was terrifying looking at from behind. Glad you are ok. Like watching your videos, you are always encouraging people.

[@hardtailparty]

Thanks Jimmie

[@crappypatty]

What an intense video! Hogs is so much fun! Great video.

[@controller2152]

Steve...... That was 1 nasty fall bro. I haven’t rode Sedona yet but that is my biggest fear. I’m glad u are good to go. Keep shredding Steve.

[@hardtailparty]

My advice for sedona is to start small and work your way up. Don't go straight to the double black diamonds, they're seriously gnarly.

[@bangaloretrailrider2472]

Butt puckered, love your videos.. commitment!

[@wasatchadventurer7227]

Awesome riding dude! My buddy did something similar, tumbling off the small cliff at the end of porcupine rim in moab over this weekend. He ended up spraining his ankle pretty good, and a few cuts and bruises.

[@hardtailparty]

Yikes. That's always my biggest fear when I ride porcupine. It's so remote out there. I've seen a few broken arms 5+ miles away from any trailhead.

[@cellphonenut]

Steve was such an awesome host for this ride had the time of my life can't wait to ride with Steve, Brian and crew again !!!!

[@hardtailparty]

We had a blast riding with you! Thanks for joining us. Let's do it again!

[@ericgoodro240]

Looks like alot of fun! Just picked up my new GT hardtail. Alot of fun!

[@hardtailparty]

Welcome to the hardtail party! The first MTB I ever rode was a gt.

[@glock19gen3]

As usual, great video Steve!

[@TLG84]

Intense video! So much great content in this one. I think you got better footage of that "slippery spot" on High on the Hog than any I have seen yet. (I remember that spot b/c I went down clipped in there!). Those trails are no joke! Glad you walked away from that crazy bail down the cliff! I love Jay's Nimble 9, always wanted to try one of those.

[@hardtailparty]

ouch, t at's a brutal place to go down! One of the main reasons I don't clip in is so I can have more confidence tackling sections like that.

[@TLG84]

@@hardtailparty Yep, it was scary, I made the switch to Chesters after that trip! It is amazing how much the gopro effect flattens things out. But I liked the way you captured it from quite a few different angles, it gave a pretty good idea of the challenge!

[@SteveBoyer10]

This looks so dang fun. I really need to get into mountain biking.

[@hardtailparty]

Absolutely you do! It's a blast.

[@50mtb44]

That crash and fall off the cliff was scary. Nice job going back and cleaning it.

[@hardtailparty]

Thanks. I knew I'd have a mental block forever after that crash unless I went back and cleaned it right away.

[@evowario]

It was an awesome group ride can’t wait to do it again in Sedona🚵🏽🤘🏾🚵🏽🤘🏾🚵🏽🤘🏾

[@hardtailparty]

Thanks for joining. It was super fun riding with you guys. Killer riding!

[@wesleywermuth9545]

Super cool

[@squishlefunke]

Well I'll be in Sedona this fall and now I know those trails are beyond my abilities.

[@hardtailparty]

Sedona has some tame trails too. If you want something technical with no exposure, check out slim shady. If you prefer traditional trails, check out mezcal and chuckwagon.

[@squishlefunke]

@@hardtailparty thanks I will! I have something to aim for while I work on skills this summer (in addition to not getting injured). The thing that freaked me out in your video the most, other than the exposure, was the dusty layer on the slick rock. We don't have much of that in New England.

[@hardtailparty]

@@squishlefunke they sand over rock was way worse than usual. It had rained a few days before, and people's tires tracked it onto the rocks. It's not usually like they here.

[@bicketybam]

Great job and great bail on that drop. Bit of luck but also a good bit of judgement mixed in!

[@hardtailparty]

Thanks. It all happened in slow-motion, but fortuately all my years tucking and rolling as a kid kicked in.

[@ollydickinson2196]

Wish I had your hardtail, looks so nice

[@hardtailparty]

It's a good one, and worth saving up for.

[@sidvish159]

Steve...if you come to the east coast I have some hard trails on hard tails for you in the Northern VA & MD area. Awesome video and glad you are ok after that spill.

[@hardtailparty]

Thanks. I'd love to ride that area sometime. I post my ride meetups on Instagram.

[@sidvish159]

@@hardtailparty cool I follow you on IG on your hardtail party. Is that the one?

[@hardtailparty]

@@sidvish159 Yup. That's where I post ride meetups.

[@azdirtlife4280]

I think I like Hogs even more than Hiline. The sweet tech is epic 🤘🤘. The dude on a single speed gets big props 👍👍 Oh yeah, I am glad you didn't die 😯

[@hardtailparty]

Same! And I agree, Jay is a BEAST on that thing.

[@kjj9701]

You guys took falls out there. This trail looks super rough.

[@hardtailparty]

It's a double black diamond and it deserves it's rating.

[@theozogs1013]

sweet!!!!!1

[@hollyreynolds8340]

SOO Cool!! What PSI were you runnin Steve?

[@hardtailparty]

I cant remember. I'm usually between 11 and 16 psi, depending on the group and how I'm riding for the day.

[@yamahschector]

What was the hardtail after the specialized? I could not get what it was and it is an interesting bike

[@hardtailparty]

Orbea laufey

[@yegmtb8377]

this guys wearing a sweater what was the degrees in Celsius i bet id be in shorts n tank looks hot

[@finnsmtb896]

Nice vid man still shredding my hardtail just wondering when your gunna let me know what your lumbar pack is

[@hardtailparty]

Here's the link again: amzn.to/2YjykIS

[@blambmtb6189]

Mind if I ask what stem mount you're using? I was using the K edge mount and lost my bolt the other day

[@hardtailparty]

It's a barfly bar mount. I'd rather have the kedge top cap mount

[@jawg2392]

Try Whyte’s 909 ! Geometry of the gods

[@hardtailparty]

I wish they were available in the US. Ive been wanting to try one. My rsd middle child is perfect though.

[@stevecabrera6718]

I hate click bait titles but you could have put that you fell off a cliff!! Glad your okay that was intense

[@hardtailparty]

Thanks. I refuse to use clickbait to lure people into watching my videos. I'd rather just make good videos. :) I'd like to under-promise and over-deliver when it comes to KZbin video titles.

[@stevecabrera6718]

@@hardtailparty Well that you definatly did! Glad to be a sub! :)

[@cellphonenut]

That was definitely the scary moment

[@cellphonenut]

I was on that ride Steve is very fit and skilled anyone else would have been seriously injured

[@hardtailparty]

I'm working toward fit. Not where I want to be yet, but getting closer. Stretching before and after definitely reduces the chance for injuries.
