I GOT 4TH PLACE - THE BIGGEST MTB SLOPESTYLE LINE EVER MADE!

I got 4th place - The biggest MTB slopestyle line ever made! I ride the Big White mountain bike slopestyle contest in Canada and send tricks on the biggest slopestyle course ever made, would you ride this?
The Tom Van Steenbergen invitational is a MTB slopestyle contest hosted by fellow Monster Energy team mate at the Big White mountain bike resort and is known for its big size of features and jumps, but I never imagined it to be this big! The slopestyle course is amazing with loads of different features including, drops, jumps and huge wooden features all made to perform big tricks on! With loads of bike breaking through the week and heavy crashes happening I really do think this is as big as contest courses can go before we have to switch to a different kind of bike! The week was stressful but in the end I was stoked and walked away with 4th place which is unreal, so watch me takle this crazy line with my GoPro on getting all the shots!
I hope you enjoy the video!

You narrated while performing a backflip off the whale tail.... simply amazing.

[@blairburton1234]

I got to have Whistmas this July after a long four years. Can't wait to see your new Whistler content.

[@messagedeleted1922]

I think Sam might be so used to talking while riding, because of the youtubes, he probably does better, has more flow when talking now then when he doesnt have us to talk to while riding.

[@CANControlGRAFFITI]

@@messagedeleted1922 well there you have it.

[@CANControlGRAFFITI]

Dudes a beast

[@KurtisPape]

I was going to say the same thing but you bet me too it. haha

[@benmatta]

Just had a crash and you’re riding again! I don’t know how to explain you man, you always look on the bright side, you are the definition of amazing!

[@SamPilgrim]

🤘cheers!!!

[@izsakbessenyei801]

Sam Pilgrim is so damn positive, I love it! Congrats on the fast recovery, absolutely sick riding, and well earned 4th place 🤙

[@SamPilgrim]

Thanks man!!

[@edwardyule7638]

You sure are pal you rock dude in more than most ways!

[@brucemacdonald5532]

Love how on the POV footage you're actually chatting to the camera... while upside down doing a flip haha!

[@deandagner]

Sam, you are a Legend my man. You're literally talking while doing a flip like it's literally nothing haha. I love it.. Such dreams.

[@n9vicemtb]

Congrats on the speedy recovery. Good to see you back up and running

[@SamPilgrim]

Cheers dude!

[@boycottjews]

@@SamPilgrim take care yourself! Maybe since you're old now supposedly you need softer tires down from 80psi

[@boycottjews]

Idk though. Great channel.

[@marcnsparx]

I love how supportive all the riders are of each other, genuinely happy to be beaten by someone who nails their run. Great community

[@3xceIIent]

Congratulations on 4th! So amazing. Always great to see you competing again. Glad to see you just out there having fun.

[@xavier9177]

Well good, Glad you recovered at a great speed!! keep sending andddd TO THE SKYYYY🤘🏽🤘🏽

[@eightlivesdownmtb]

As LL Cool J said: don’t call it a comeback, been here for years. Massive props after two wallops to pull this off. Stoked. 🔥🔥🔥

[@whitezombie2k3]

I absolutely love watching these video's. I feel like a dinosaur when i'm out on my MTB because i'm 36 and everyone around me is late teens/early twenties but honestly it's the best hobby in the world. I only wish i'd gotten into it years ago.

[@paulinethepope]

Sam, you're the fucking man. Such a positive influence in this world.

[@crystalcahill3510]

We MET you in Whistler and THANKS for being SO awesome and saying hey to our son, who loves watching your videos. You were truly genuine and kind, and hope you have had a blast checking out BC! You are welcome on our trails ANY time- BC and Canada welcomes you!

[@mrkthmn]

The camaraderie is the best part of it all! I love how positive it makes the whole event.

[@lizvickers7156]

You're the best. I am a 62 year old lady with no interest in this sort of thing until I stumbled upon your channel. Wow!!! I am hooked. Your positive energy and enthusiasm and help towards the younger riders is great. Have subscribed just to see you and your fellow riders do these awesome tricks and fast downhill rides. Greetings from Cheshire.

[@chrisgenovese8188]

Hell yeah Sam! Dreams! Hearing Sam mention back pain broke my heart. I've got 5 years on Sam, and back pain has been a constant part of my life. It's the worst.

[@1911Zoey]

Have you checked that out? Could be a slipped or herniated disc.

[@chrisgenovese8188]

@@1911Zoey yeah, it's a herniated disc.

[@tjt.v.2923]

" i am gonna do a chill run" then throw tricks that lots of people cannot do. Keep up the awsome work Sam. Love wacthing you!

[@gavinmtb9671]

Keep up the fantastic riding Sam your the best mate wish you luck for the week

[@cordite7207]

I think its good for people to see some trepidation from you guys, you're phenomenal riders and almost always make the gnarliest stuff seem trivial. Sick runs dude, 4th place too, brilliant!

[@mads_ittmann1823]

Please never change the intro song, I always put my phone on full volume for that song. Sick riding as always, keep it up Sam 🤙

[@canoepolomattyp]

You are my favorite bike person by a long shot mate. Best attitude going around - love seeing you shredding these comps and being right up there! Keep it up legend! 👍🏻

[@curzonjp]

congrats on 4th , I am loving the videos both you and tom are putting out of your adventures across the pond.

[@macfilms9904]

Congrats on the 4th Sam! As the guy that was always a fair bit older, riding with my crew got pretty tough as the injuries stacked up and rehabbing them got harder & harder. Just the fact you are still in it is awesome and you have a great energy & enthusiasm that you bring to the sport.

[@ThinkerOnTheBus]

Congratulations, man!!! That rocks for all of the usual reasons, but when you factor in the atypical reasons, it rocks all the harder!!! Keep riding, and keep shredding . . . as long as you're having fun. Should it ever stop being fun, and enjoyable, then you will need to leave it behind. Just keep on being you!

[@dylanm3519]

Well done on the top-4 finish. Glad you're in Canada enjoying what our landscape has to offer.

[@Honey_Daddy]

Congrats brother. That's the kind of comeback I knew you'd be making. Never count Pilgs out of the chase.

[@junka1975]

Congratulations Sam, you've still got it! 4th place is not to be sneezed at with such big competition. The chilled out wake surfing looked like a fun way to relax. Great video.

[@Prim--]

I just got off the phone with Dusty, he said he was proud of you but.... he thinks you could of placed better. GG Sam. Much love. CHEERS!

[@olrenison]

absolutely smashed it Sam. so good to see you enjoying it and still doing so amazingly well! Epic! 👊

[@patbriggsmbr]

Well done👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 your never too old. Plus it’s you who’s keeping me mountain biking and I’m 57. Been riding since I was 29. 👍. Seen a lot of changes. Great stuff Sam. 👍🍻

[@KayakFishingCorkIreland]

Well done Sam. Great to such a positive community spirit, everyone willing their competitors to do well.

[@malls9016]

Sam you might possibly becoming the 'Nyquist' of MTB. A legend older than everyone else but still kicks it with the big dawgs!! Respect mate

[@sageambrosek5206]

Hell yeah I'm so happy sent it without getting hurt and had a great time! And it's so sick that you made 4th place. Keeping it mellow and landing it clean in bad conditions like a true patrón Saint of MTB!!! 🤘🤘

[@karlday2010]

Your literally talking whilst hitting backflips like it's casual haha epic man. Shows how confident you are man. You r the best rider by far, always sending it 100%. Go Sam 👊👊👊

[@RHC_NYC]

Your spirit and attitude, even during competition, is why you'll always be the champ! Positivie vibes all the way.

[@righteousbob272]

Dude Sam so happy for you! I saw that interview where you talked about your mental stuff with comps and seeing this and your excitement is so cool! All love man

[@brucelyne2189]

I’m the guy holding the sign @ 9:49…my sons and I had a great time meeting you, and seeing you jump in person. Worth the drive from Bowen Island. Feel free to pop over and ride our trails…

[@CTRL585]

That was a great comp watched and everything keep up the great work!😀

[@CTRL585]

+thanks for the fist bump and photo cheers😀

[@messagedeleted1922]

Very nice Sam, very nice. Hope you are having a BLAST here in Canada. DREAMS!!!

[@michaelmitchell5909]

Congrats on 4th place man!....pretty damn awesome id say dude!. Cant wait to see u shred a line!

[@widkin]

You're always so positive, it it really contagious. I personally have a habit of getting into negative thoughts when things aren't going my way, and watching your videos, I feel that I can learn a thing or two. Despite scary winds and a huge course, you tackled this comp with positivism and the results followed. Big congrats on that! And when you eventually have to pass on the big jumps and crazy stunts, may it be a long time from now, I think you could make a promising career as a motivational speaker. Or, write a book. I know I would buy it. Cheers from Sweden :)

[@meneermalik]

Great vid man. Welcome to Canada! Looks like you're having so much much!! Jealous. Looking forward to seeing more of your trip. And btw, congrats on 4th!!!!

[@poppamic]

Brilliant sam 👌 every vlog you do is so entertaining (best thing on the net) Keep up the amazing work 💪💥

[@B.Lotvs_MTB]

You are the man!! If you ever come to California, I hope I can see you shred! So awesome! Congrats on the 4th place!!

[@lol65XD]

I feel like Sam is more confident backflippin these huge jumps than just jumping them normal

[@MrRendlesham1]

Hi Sam congrats on 4th place there’s some amazing talent out there I must say that your vids are so entertaining you are a good influence on the younger riders coming up you do it in a grounded attitude and no unnecessary bad language a true inspiration for people who are getting into the sport informative and entertaining a true legend I hope you keep bringing out the dreams

[@charlesgrigson6436]

Keep on trucking my man. You've already reached the top of the mountain my man. Long before some of these youngsters were even doing it. That's what's so crazy about the progression of this whole thing. In my hay day when i had a shot at a potential career slopestyle mtb wasn't even really a thing yet. Of course these 2 Polish brothers are hard to keep up with. There's 1 or 2 dudes from Sweden and France that may be able to beat em on a given Saturday or Sunday but the technicality is absolutely insane these days. Continuing to push the envelope and just being able to know u were a big part of that, regardless of accolades, has to feel somewhat rewarding and take some of the pressure off of competing again

[@stefankaufmann2340]

wow, so amazing you‘re still killing it! so good! having always fun watching your vids

[@kalebmims81]

Sam was just casually talking while doing a backflip. No sweat seemed to go into that jump. He's such a talented biker and I have so much fun watching him preform.

[@huwpritchard5903]

Great video Sam love how you were so chill through the whole course and even comentated the whole run 😂

[@slayerkillkillkill2212]

Wish lewi was with ya... You boys are the best ting on youtube... cheers 🍻 from Maine

[@CarrotCannon]

Congrats Sam! Love the positivity!

[@robtoogood201]

Sam you riding is inspirational, I'm only just starting to try and do small table tops and find it very hard! You make it all look effortless. Keep it up!

[@capntizzy9029]

Sam, is it epic? it better be epic. It's the dream. Thanks for all the constant content, and showing us these amazing tracks. I live in the blue mountains in Australia, and I'm not the most amazing rider on the planet or anything, but I don't think there are any downhill tracks or really much in the way of anything really, and your videos inspire me to do crazy things in crazy places, I appreciate you.

[@davidhadley6164]

Great job Istead!!! Keep pushing it Pilgrim. You got this.

[@LukaszRogowiczYamaortodks]

Great applause. Congratulations. Great ride. A great result. Soon these slopestyle flights will be into space 🤯🤣

Because of your positivity , it doesn’t matter to me what place you get man ; as long as you are safe, happy , doing what you love and being your best that day what more can anyone ask for . Just be safe , and keep that chin up rocking that smile ! Your positivity is seriously contagious Sam . Please don’t be hard on yourself and worry about the score too much man, it’s not everything bro , what matters the most is you doing your personal best given the circumstances and cards you are dealt at that given moment. And man, everything you do on two wheels never fails to amaze us! One hell of a rider with solid platinum balls

[@markyzxr]

That was so sick🤘 Amazing riding man and brilliant video! Sending it for all us old gits 😁
