It's Officially BIKE PARK Season, Let's GO!!! 🚀

[@danielgrafik]

Honestly, the chair talks and interactions with other riders is great content. 👍

[@incredible5587]

that's how i found this channel rode up with him once like 2019 and he told me about his channel. bought a bike and been addicted since. thanks phil

[@jjcaron4381]

ya definently

[@GelMibson-u2y]

Learned something new about metallurgy from big Red! Phil being a man of the people, coaching up kids on the Reef and giving gopro tips! Love to see it, great ambassador to dh

[@tejbergin6393]

Exactly!! It’s always so cool to see how amazing Phil is with the community

[@Baykz1]

I love how genuine and nice Phil is In his videos it really shows how amazing most of the mountain biking community is, I love how he always try’s to start conversations on the lift and stuff. I ski and like every time I’m on the lift it’s always so quite and no one talks to each other so it’s nice to see him always starting conversations

[@jurassicjam2156]

I love the little conversations with people on the lifts. Everyone seems so friendly and cool. Great to see.

[@lanyonheinemann9162]

Love how he gives all the bros air time on the channel. Phil is the man. Unreal riding, love to pretend

[@SkillsWithPhil]

Hey all, there's some accounts impersonating me here in the the comments. They use my account photo and have the name "telegram me at skillswithwphil". This is a scam. This is not me. There is no contest. This is a sitewide problem on KZbin happening to many creators. I've reported it multiple times to KZbin and blocked their accounts but other than that, there's not much I can do. It's like playing whackamole. Block one, and another pops up.

[@mattspen]

That glove wipe transition at 2:54 was awesome. My favorite part of your channel is how cool your are to and interact with other riders. Thanks for being awesome Phil

[@anthonygarvey1]

Phil, there is a whole new channel of content in here... presenting "up lifting with Phil" where Phil post his conversations with random bikers as they ride the up lift at bike parks. Listen to people's backgrounds, jokes, biking fails and so much more. Coming soon to most streaming platforms and wherever you download your podcasts.

[@Jimmy__98]

Underated comment

[@benjamincaro8582]

it is so nice to see that cool vibes on an opening day so happy to see a video on this channel again big fan from Chile, South America

[@PetesZ400]

Phil is simply my favorite MTBer.

[@rtgMTB]

The way Phil pops just seems surreal like it's added in post, crazy man.

[@trooperV]

I think you are the friendliest mtb youtuber rider Phil. Nice riding.

[@Dbosheks]

My man Nick rolling with Phil! Love it!

[@MichaelGranataDivorceLawyer]

Anyone else get beyond stoked for park riding after watching Phil's video's??

[@joebikes]

Man Phil those huck gaps into rocks are insane dude! Gotta have a lot of trust in your tires for those 😅 sick vid man!

[@Robertoardoin]

Phil, man, I like watching you interact with everyone as much as watching you fly.

[@MTBingAndrew]

Phil it absolutely boggles my mind watching you ride. Plus you have such a lovely character. Good on ya mate.

[@jeremiemcclean1635]

How could I have slept on how fun Phil is to watch. Learned so much from him early in his youtube days. Thanks for the footy🙌🏽

[@therewolf184]

That thumb wipe camera transition at 2:54 was slick!

[@carl_heyerdahl]

Nothing makes me want to go ride my bike more than watching one of your videos! Thanks for always putting out such good content!

[@xjohnny04]

Im always blown away of how fast you are. I ride the same trails in your vids and still get puckered going probably half the speed you do lmao. Thanks for the vid Phil, time to come out of MTB hibernation :D

[@kcb-0258]

Bike park season? Already? Let’s gooo! Kinda scared of Highland though after I broke my arm there

[@SkillsWithPhil]

Aw man sorry to hear that. It's claimed a lot of people over the years. Take it slow, and you'll be fine!

[@kylemccartney1831]

Me too! I fractured my collar bone and right elbow and I haven't been the same since.

[@campbellmetzgar1753]

If you break the other one it'll equal out and give you good luck

[@kcb-0258]

@@kylemccartney1831 yup I’m still trying to get used to riding again 😂

[@dvs620]

Phil getting at the most important topic of the day. Because of him, I was today year's old when I found out that a violin and a fiddle are the same instrument. Thanks Phil. 👍

[@stevowyeth]

I really like how humble and genuine Phil is, there needs to be more Phil's in the world.

[@lymb3914]

Great to see more from you, Phil! Looked super fun, as always, and you're such an outgoing person, it's nice to see you chatting it up with other people!

[@demonhays8460]

"Lift chair conversations with phil" could be a good new segment 🤣

[@ianfurqueron5850]

Faux Pine (the enduro trail) is one of my favorite trails at Highland. It was funny watching BKXC's video on riding at Highland and I kept thinking he should have ridden that trail as it's more of what he likes to ride, but sometimes he tends to not talk to folks prior to heading to a place to ride.

[@SecretSpots]

That drop gap down below you guys on the lift at 0:58 holy moly! Btw, I really like that you include the conversations on the lift up! 🤙

[@ericsharp5079]

Miss watching Phil flying down some crazy northeastern rocks! Great to see it again! So impressive!

[@oliverbourne9599]

Yep ... that last trail you called the "Enduro trail" defo the best on your footage of the day 👌

[@nickwright9556]

I never comment on videos, but at 23:18, the guy to your left with the white Smith helmet should get a new one. His helmet has multiple dents meaning the underlying foam is likely been impacted and will not protect as well in the next big one. Smith offers crash replacement programs as well fyi. Stay safe and protect your noggins 🤘

[@blameitonben]

I rode at Highland for the first time last fall because of you. Trails are so dang fun and playful.

[@ononewheel7]

Place is awesome.

[@dimi3378]

This video illustrates perfectly why MTB community is great.

[@jinavl]

Ive learned @44 that riding bike parks make you a better rider..trails i use to think were hard are now easy..thanks kanuga 🤙🤙

[@felix-ve8jk]

Hey Im a CNC machinist too. Iconel sucks to machine! Its even harder than titanium and steel. One or two parts and its time to change out inserts already. Im glad hes still able to get out and ride right now. Im slammed at work doing 6 12 hr days!!

[@felixajorg]

That is so cool, see you interacting with the regular riders. You are just so humble and down to earth. I can wait to meet you one day. BTW, would like to see you riding with Remy Metailler in one of your videos. That will be so cool !!

[@cdwag23]

Phil, you are the king of the side hits. So dope

[@keen.fitness]

"If you cut in front you better be fast" 🤣🤣🤟🏾

[@gogomtb1]

That's truely awesome riding! Soo much fun o watch! 🤙🏽

[@offroaddronie3504]

Lunch trail looks like it’s a fun and technical trail. Love all the videos glad I came across you. 👍🏻 Just got back into riding, got a GT aggressor pro. Keep up the great videos. 🤟🏻

[@murse5558]

HA! my daughter and I were there too!! and I thought to myself, Phil should be here, but we never crossed paths! Next time! Your videos made us aware of Highland and we are going on for year 2 now!!!

[@dusty7933]

Nice one Phil. You should come ride Darkfest one day here in Cape Town. Love watching your videos. I must say you have some of the best bike parks that side of the world. Looking forward to the next video!

[@BIKE_BR]

WHAT A SATISFYING VIDEO, CONGRATULATIONS BY THE CHANNEL

[@coolsammichherohunter6248]

21:00 Sticking it to the man by standing on the not for standing bridge haha

[@Jacob99174]

Phil is back!

[@MrNamesjeff17291]

I can watch Phil ride park for hourssssssssssssss

[@alexslater3620]

Phil’s ability to get mega air of things that shouldn’t get any air is absolutely insane!

[@all_the_hype4576]

2:13 Phil: ya know, I think a lot of east coast places ride better early season, when the dirt is still wet. It just has a bit more give Yes Phil, we call this hero dirt😂

[@pellehw1302]

love your riding style!

[@jjcaron4381]

those were some crazy trails👍

[@incredible5587]

one of the guys you were talking to inline i seen yesterday may 26 in the back of the stretcher on the side by side the drop after feed drop. hes great guy local dude. not going to say names. i hope he is alright.

[@one_mtb]

Man someone’s gotta make a chest protector with a GoPro mount! I use a chin mount when I’m making videos because it’s a better angle, but when I’m just riding I don’t always want a camera on my chin. But I feel that I ride much better and harder with a camera on because if I crash I at least have it on video 😂

[@SkillsWithPhil]

I actually think they do, but I don't wear chest protects so hopefully somebody will chime in with a suggestion!

[@one_mtb]

@@SkillsWithPhil I’ll have too look into it, guess you could always heat up a sticky mount too

[@blombardo83]

I was thinking of trying to find a chest mount chest protector but I was also thinking if I crash it would probably be better on the helmet, on the chin 🤔.

[@MichaelRei99]

Glad to see you back out on the trail Captain Phil!!!

[@jeffreydzialo]

New series idea...Pishtailing with Phil! Great video, wild riding!

[@easy_steezy2340]

I was there the same day and saw you at lunch lady. Sick vid

[@TheDonkDonk420]

highland park is like 30min away from me, Ive always wanted to get into downhill riding and your video's have convinced me...

[@shemshem9998]

24:03 my god that guy in the back found his own g spot with his saddle didn't he

[@joedillier7113]

Hell yeah dude! We rode there Saturday,, it was so much fun!!!

[@goldfish5827]

Hey Phil have you ever thought of nose bonking that rock drop at 7:20 ?

[@SkillsWithPhil]

I did it a long time ago and made a mental note not to do it again. I looked and I don't think I have any footage of it though :(

[@dalemski2161]

What a good frendly vibe channel keep up

[@weathdone]

Sick Rip Phil... Always great to see ur vids!! Thanx buddy!!!

[@HummusPower]

Stumbled across your channel man and stoked to say I loved bro. Killer content and riding of course and love the chats with other riders and just being stoked on hitting it with them bro! Subbed and notifications on!

[@tomassanesson902]

It's a cool bike you have I have an old GT XRC 9000🤘👍

[@Log_Pog4507]

I guarantee that Phil makes a lot of friends at the tracks

[@tofadeisastart]

Some of those lines you take just blow my mind 😂

[@OverlandGeneration]

I want to thank you for your choice of hub.. I love the stealth silence!

[@DGAFORLIFE]

So glad your back at it, love the videos!!!!!!

[@Blastcal]

Was at Mountain Creek Bike Park Opening Weekend. Love your Videos!!

[@Jen_TheSnail]

I would love to learn how to mountain bike. Once I learn how to ride a bike lol. It looks so fun and freeing

[@silascatalano9491]

I’m so excited to get out there and shred

[@loganrae5497]

Loved riding with you Phil thought you were fast on video but irl you are insane

[@Graeleaf]

Absolutely awesome! I remember the first video I saw on your channel was of you riding this trail system in the snow! Always wicked fun! 🤘

[@hootie_owl2771]

Oh man, I rode the lift with red on Friday, super nice guy!

[@trailrunnah8886]

The comment about VT cost of living hits home. I'd love to relocate to Vermont, or some areas out west, but the cost of living had just become crushing anywhere remotely desirable.

[@paulwolfram7774]

Gosh, this video makes me itch to go back to Highland.

[@woe_]

Love the videos Phil. I live vicariously through them since I can't bike anymore

[@BikeLifewithRob]

Nice runs man

[@stumpy25lbs]

Really missed your videos over winter Phil! 🤙🏼

[@boostedbackwoods]

Yo Phil you should come out to Parker mtn and ride the backside at the wall ride in Littleton

[@Sleddge83]

Love your videos Phill. I wish I could get out on my bike more.

[@WeekendPirate]

My first bike park season of riding mountain bikes and I’m super excited to hit a few here on the east coast in NC, and WV

[@Lumberperson]

Hey Phil, you’re a pretty fast dude. Can I recommend that you look into using a full face helmet and goggles, and a chest protector? And even a neck brace, can save your life. I am guessing that you don’t wear a full face helmet because you talk to your audience sometimes. Although please keep in mind that you can wear full gear, and take off the helmet and goggles when talking to the camera. Takes a little more time, although totally worth it for your safety. I used to ride motocross, and I intend on getting back into it one day. And from my experience, which honestly isn’t even too much, it only takes one bad accident to really hurt you dude. You guys are riding close to trees too, which can have branches hurt your eyes, and rocks and other things that can seriously hurt your jaw. And as quick as you are, a bad crash into a rock, tree or stump could actually break bones or worse without a chest protector. ( not that chest protectors are perfect, although they can help.) Additionally, if you haven’t taken a tumbling class, I certainly recommend it. I’m saying all of this because my gear really kept me alive in an accident where I landed head first, then literally rolled around 30-40ft from the bike on flat ground. Shattered and dislocated my shoulder, much better than what would have happened if I wasn’t wearing a neck brace, if you catch my drift. And you are very quick, don’t want you to get hurt. I’m not a mountain biker, although I do enjoy the similarities and scenery. Keep it safe out there man!

[@harrysmith9585]

Such a great video

[@tomassanesson902]

So awesome

Hey Phil I have a question. I’m pretty new to trail riding and was wondering if my bike would work for some jumps like you do. I have a 26inch schwinn ranger

[@benwigginsbikes]

your bike just sounds like it rides so well

[@Dempsey222]

You know the season has started when Phil does a Highland Park video. We even got to meet Red this video.

[@Hoosieroutdoor1969]

Something I've noticed about how you ride, you are extremely light on your bike, can really tell it when your going through rough stuff

[@SkillsWithPhil]

That's a combination of line choice and pumping terrain. The combination of the two helps out a ton. Of course bike set up and experience help too.

[@incredible5587]

Man wish i ran into you there i did not even see you. i was there the 27th too but was much busy and slow

[@januhelj3796]

Hey Phil, you going to Whistler this year?

[@SnowMexicann]

Its fucking amazing how everyone just knows phil instantly.
