If you can't ride this feature, this trail is NOT for you.

We're finishing up the most Dangerous Trail in Missouri. In this video, we build a decent-sized mountain bike drop for the start of The Wizard trail that we'd been working on for the last few months.

[@STLMTB]

You know Seth, I think you have outgrown the name "backyard" trail builds. Can't wait to get to Howler and check out all your work.

[@Tyreinn]

Its true, hes a far cry from the 5 foot dirt tables of yesteryear haha

[@Lughnerson]

The drone control was amazing during the riding.

[@YoungerFuthark]

Benton Drones FTW!

[@FreerideQuebec]

Here people have the tendency to try and skip the squirrel catcher telling themselves "I bet the trail will be easier than that first feature so I'll be fine"...We still have a lot of work to do to raise awareness

[@LaurentiusTriarius]

If you fill the first 50 feet with very high perched skinnies you'll get the job done . I've always dreamed of doing just that in my backyard but wife doesn't want to be sued 💀😂

[@elguamo2003]

I agree, unfortunately, many trail systems do make the qualifier much harder than anything else on the trail so people have come to expect that everything else will be easier. If builders would consistently set the qualifier at about the same level as the other features then perhaps people will trust it?

[@user-lp1hw9bb5e]

the first feature if its a proper squirrel catcher usually is the hardest that's why most will skip it if they do know they can't do it

[@crazydonkeysbikeclub7674]

Sick drop, but actually looks pretty tame compared to a lot of the other features. When you can preview trails with rad videos like this, there really is no reason to not know what you are getting into. A trail progression matrix goes a long way in informing riders who haven't done their research. Would be great to see more trail networks put those out not just bike parks.

[@motortiki]

@@elguamo2003 I keep hearing this online, but I've yet to encounter it in real life. I've been to trails in Arizona, California, Colorado, Idaho, and New Mexico, and the squirrel catchers have never been the hardest feature on the trail. Maybe it's a regional thing, where do these crazy-hard squirrel catchers happen?

[@saywhaatnow]

The music. The craftsmanship. The drone shot!! The MUSTACHE. 19,000/10 video.

[@Elmo6855]

And dude is like "...and I pay for good music." That's how you know he's in it to do it right above all else!

[@VanGirlYuka]

I wish I had paid more attention to the details of the feature when we were there! I appreciate your time and effort. beautiful as always!

[@adamweb]

I'm in my 40s, it's awesome to see how MTB has progressed from riding rigid department store bikes down fire roads to 8 year olds riding trails like this!

[@DegenDavid]

Dude your videos are so sick. The quality is insane. I was watching your stuff when you were basically screwing 2x4s right on the ground in your backyard, and now you're putting this out. Congrats!

[@cutlaps]

He's come a long way! Amazing to see his progression.

[@fullerblacksmithing7954]

Having been to Howler myself, and seen everything it has to offer, it is such a sick riding destination. Max the owner, and everyone there at the park has such an incredible vibe, and even personally helped me out in tough times. Huge thanks to them, and it's cool to see this drop being built.

[@jordonwolfram8514]

Adrenaline bike shop is a pillar within the community and those young riders are a testament to dedicated involvement. I'm glad this video highlighted them ripping amazing, new trails!

[@TrioBehindBars]

Seth you hit out of the park again. Awesome Trail Awesome Video. So much fun. Thanks for lerting us be part of it. Bentonville drones killed it !!!

[@srdjanbabic8304]

I specifically love the music choices in each and every one of your videos. Can't wait to see the next one!

[@Nicksonabike]

King Giz at the beginning! Love it

[@cutlaps]

Yeiwwwww can't wait for this! Would love to see these features in real life.

[@BartoszMogadorski]

Kids are unbelievable, but the drone work! Wow! Last minutes are masterpiece. Congratulations.

[@bungh0LeO]

Great work on the build and the editing for the run through with the kids/teens was amazing! Truly exhilarating

[@Jbjmtb]

Proper impressive work Seth. Drone shots were baller. Kids have no fear!

[@pawcisq]

I love the music choice, the level of craftmanship and how the video is presented to us ;) Masterpiece!

[@Froff]

WOW! Cutlaps sent me and I'm stoked he did, that was a f****** SICK VIDEO!!!!!

[@enzocasati1583]

I really appreciate the extra effort you put in to make the videos special, like the music, always exited to see a new upload!

[@jasonk1540]

It's been a while since I've watched on of your videos and have to say, your video quality is WAY better than I remember it being. This stuff is really good looking, and I'm glad you're able to share what you do! Those kids can shred, and from the drone shots, your drone operator looked like he was almost having as much fun as they were!

[@alexhedquist]

Great build. Love the craftsmanship. All the riders and the Drone work are superb!!!!!

[@DingleBerryMTB]

That dubstep at the end with the ridedown video! Dude epic!

[@christeschke9844]

Very cool build. Loved the drone work on the video.

[@darrylvlasak5716]

Awesome video! This trail looks sick and those little dudes can shred!

[@ZoniesCoasters]

No idea why KZbin isn't putting this in my subscriptions feed, that's great

[@righteousbob272]

Same here, weird

[@andrew_gardner]

#slowclap killer feature, sick music, great FPV pilot...and the kids shredding!

[@blakbanshee]

That drone footage is on another level. Props to the kids crushing it on that trail. Great video!

[@xsimplyp7444]

Riding this trail at 8yrs old is crazy

[@MidwestMTBAdventures]

Great trail build my man. Love watching you create some sick trails. Keep on building them! :)

[@dotadojardiner8893]

5:43 "because we're going to lay big fat logs across the whole length of the structure". Ha Ha, ah the inner child in me!

[@sixty2612]

So cool to see rock work on that scale. My favorite part of trail work is fitting all the big rocks together, but I’ve always been limited by what 6 guys can carry with a net.

[@SmallSpoonBrigade]

I kind of miss the days when I used to build rock walls by hand with small boulders. If you get pillars like this right, there's a decent chance that they will always be there. The ground will move a bit, but rock work like that when done properly lasts a very long time.

[@Grim_fpv]

@bentondrones killing it with fpv shot🔥

[@jkimm7]

Gotta tell you man, I love the videos and LOVE the inclusion of Nathaniel Rateliff and the Night Sweats music in the past few! Keep up the great work!

[@TheLoamRanger]

So sick. Loved this vid and this build from beginning to end.

[@Veltora11]

Trio Behind Bars. The Florida Kids making the state proud :')

[@derekleswing795]

I immediately recognized the intro song, love king gizzard and the lizard wizard! One of my fav music creators + one of my fav KZbinrs !!!

[@bentondrones]

Thanks again for another opportunity to help showcase your work/creations!

[@cok666joey]

That was some really impressive drone footage! Good job!

[@bentondrones]

@@cok666joey thanks for watching!

[@jakeed09090]

Drone shots were great, are you doing them? Ah just saw it was BentonDrones at the end. Great shots.

[@bonham4994sts9]

Your wood working skill is next level 🤘

[@zakbergmann7650]

yoooo! insane drone footy, awesome music, incredible build. Solid content!

[@toddmullis3249]

Awesome video! Loved hearing Matt and Kim!

[@morinpatmorin1]

Congrats on a gorgeous trail build. I haven't seen anything else that beautiful in the mountain biking world.

[@Graeleaf]

Wow! Always amazing creations! Fantastic video! Good to see you again! Woo! 🤘

[@Powers99]

“pay for a lot of good music for videos” *Kill EVERYBODY starts playing* Hell yeah you do!! That edit was insane and the riding even more! Those kids are wild!!!

[@frenchonionsoup2048]

why is the soundtrack for this video such heat 🔥

[@anthonymartin6119]

Dude that thing is sick! Glad to see to see your still building trails man.

[@philipB31]

Superb! Thank you, as always, for sharing.

[@pabtorre]

You've really taken your skills to a whole new level! quite a pro and a long way from your first videos in your backyard. congrats & kudos!!

[@MTB-Portugal]

Amazing work man, congrats. Thanks for sharing!!!

[@Joelusty3]

I’ve been watching you since your first backyard trail builds and it’s so cool to see how far you’ve got

[@in_10z]

Another sick build! And yea man the Trio Behind Bars crew have been to our trails at the Bogue ;-) and they rip.

[@Potensvictor]

What a great video! Excellent quality!! Nice trail build!!

[@sdau9660]

Great job on the trail! Growing up I would have loved having access to a trail like this. I'm jealous. My trails were a bit more urban/suburban. 20 some years later and five kids of my own, I couldn't afford possibly getting injured doing this.

[@nobodyspecial9035]

At Duthie Hill Park in Issaquah, WA has a similar feature to the “squirrel catcher.” More people break their collar bones on that feature than any other feature at the park. They also have hoards of 9-13 year olds who can shred-shred.

[@LinkElmore]

The only thing more impressive than those kids riding was the drone work to capture the video. Amazing.

[@ChonkLeDonk]

Been a fan for a while now and love how the quality and designs keep getting better every video, this one is top notch! Out of curiosity, around 8:24 you laid full length boards on cut a ton of excess of each side, just seems like a reoccurring theme in your videos that you always have a lot of off cuts and we don’t get to see if these get saved for future projects or sent to the burn barrel. Just seems like using a 8’ piece, you could plan for a 4’ wide layout and have zero waste. No hate at all, just curious!

[@jacobbowman8375]

I appreciate the music choices for sure! Great vid as usual and ending it went like with Kill Everybody made it even better

[@tatumthetater-tot9556]

I love the build! but it looks like you could have used have the wood for planks by cutting them in half before laying them of the stringers. It would save a lot more wood.

[@kevinbirmingham3833]

RAD. Great to get another vid. I like this format.

[@pforce9]

That drone pilot was no slouch.

[@ondrejhofman5592]

Awesome build - like always !!!

[@justinhilander3683]

very impressive! great work gentlemen.

[@CaliradoKid]

So damned good! Always love watching your vids!

[@AdventureCampingAustralia]

Wow, that is a Gnarley trail. Nope, not even in my dreams could I ride that! So good for those who've got the skills! I'd love to go there one day, watch all the hitters ride that trail and ride the chicken track

[@weedpuffer]

Great work and an amazing edit of the kids shred the trail. Greetings from europe 🤘

[@markswishereatsstuff2500]

Drone work was exceptional!

[@kobemaui9983]

Great watch as always 👍 ... I think you need Milwaukee as a sponsor....

[@gator7082]

Cool to watch, I'm just a trail rider type myself and was wondering if I should get my 10 year old daughter into it or if she was too young. Guess I got my answer. I'm envious of those kids, what a privilege to be able to get into that at that age! Good for them!

[@beerenmusli8220]

Duuuude, that train turned out so damn awesome!

[@righteousbob272]

Awesome man, I’ll support by giving you as much engagement as possible!!

[@Pineapple-Express_MX]

Sick video! Amazing sounds track too!

[@BigKidCasey]

You have come a long way. Great work.

[@noahthegildedone5917]

The thing to keep in mind with squirrel catchers, and skipping them, is that if it's the first thing I come up to and I feel I'm "going in cold" then I'm counting on the trail to ramp up in difficulty as it progresses with some sort of "boss-level" feature or series of features in the third act. (if not that late then at least in the second half of the trail.) I've tried this and been successful... In not sustaining *serious* injuries. Lol ...mostly...😅🤞🏾🤘🏾

[@airliftpilot]

Nice Drone work!

[@jacobtinggaard557]

What a nice feature, this looks amazing.

[@DeluxPlays_]

Insane build and I wonder what these kids will be riding in 10-20 years from now! INSANE

[@DudeLifeTV]

omg skrillex hell yeahh dude! 😭Been watching since 2020, so happy for you bro!

[@rl9810]

Seth, for some reason your video is not showing up in my subscription feed. I had to manually go to your channel to see it. Not sure why.

[@ironscott]

Same here. Just happened upon it somehow. Wasn’t in my subscriptions feed.

[@BackyardTrailBuilds]

Its cause I did a premiere for this video. Totally screwed up the algorithm. Will never do that again.
