BMX Guy vs. PRO DOWNHILL MTB Race

[@paulbernard2397]

Man, you were flying in that section just before the tree took all your kinetic energy. That was a savage crash, amazed you got back up but glad your okay. Keep up with the vids, always entertaining and great riding.

[@jaydalton]

Yeahhh that tree was not good for my time, haha. Thanks you very much, Paul 😄

[@AKtoTok]

Holy shit that tree pad saved you 😮 that was nuts

[@joshmoore1895]

It looked like he found the limit of his suspension, kinda pogoing him into that tree at high speed. Pretty impressive how he bounced off the tree and rolled! Good fall. Holy fck bro 👊

[@roblow8126]

seen that clip of you hitting the tree all over the internet, didn't realise it was you! Jay, king of the virals. took it like a champ 💪

[@eja504]

Being underbiked is sometimes fun, but this was very impressive! That was a brutal slam but great riding also!

[@choose6174]

John is my favorite big wheeler now

[@jaydalton]

John gets down

[@BoshJeach]

Definitely thought the qualifying run was the race run & was so puckered the whole way down waiting for you to hit the tree LOL. Still can't believe you're ripping DH so hard on that little trail bike, but stoked to see it!

[@jokubasceponis9229]

Loving the medium bike shenanigans. Great stuff Jay

[@JacquiPenar]

Dude, this content is fcuking awesome! You're a mad man

[@unclechimney6371]

That was actually extremely impressive on that bike!! Glad you're ok!

All that practice crashing on foam really paid off! Great vid! That was really fun.

[@matthewpark2662]

That qualifying run was SICK!!!

[@danielsongarcia9665]

"nice chill run" 🤣

[@jaydalton]

Yeahhh should have listened to myself

[@DeniedNetwork]

That tree clip was so worth the hit but how you are alive after that is beyond me 🤯Keep at it John, glad you're okay!

[@Sharpened_Spoon]

I have absolutely no idea how you walked away from that... chuckling! The post office is full 'cause you did all the sends.

[@rodneylitton638]

That downhill shit is totally nuts

Lumberjack Jay.

Dude slaying on single crown forks absolutely proved yourself

[@Garrison64]

To me that kind of riding doesn’t look fun at all but it is impressive to watch the top riders go down a course like that at full speed. More power to them and stay safe.

[@kylebaumgartner408]

Very epic sir john. Would love to see more mtb racing:)

[@_Jake.From.Statefarm_]

Hell yeah man!! Def gotta get a DH bike for all the park/races ;) Keep at it!

[@cosmicbackwoods]

was watching moi moi tv and saw you flying around, good to see you in the mix. glad you're ok after the tree, dean Lucas got bodied yesterday in snowshoe on a tree, scary shit

Racing your first DH as a pro is no small task. Glad to be the guide for your first practice😂 also glad your ok after that heavy one

Thank you very much for the guidance 😂 Missed you on race day but hope it went well for ya’

awesome video bro, such a fun watch. Ur insane at mtb

DH.... Down Hill not Defensive end, seriously though that tree 🌳 didn't stand a chance😉 A very impressive debut Dude, you definitely left an impression 😎🤙

[@jaydalton]

An impression in the tree 😂

[@pernyberg2816]

This was by far the most fun and engaging video I have seen in a LONG while! Its really insane that you rode, hellihsly fast, on that tiny little trail bike. RESPECT! Also - love your energy and sence of humour "..I accomplished my goals of not qualifying last. And now the pressures on to acutally finish...not last""We are going straight into Racer J's final run of the day...potentially ever."😂😂 By the way. Did you need to do a full rebuild of that poor rear wheel? All spokes looked....traaaashed!

[@Coopdog-dp5eq]

That was Rad! I was on edge during the whole thing. Glad you are OK.

Thank you, Simon

nice! was pretty surprised to see Wyn Masters in a Jay Dalton vid

[@junka1975]

That was one Hell of a hit you took there Jay. Glad you're OK. Glad the Cannondale team looked after your wheel for you. Great video though. That was a pretty cool track. Love the whip action.

Great video as always sir..glad you’re all good after fighting that tree! 🫡

I'll do my best

dude that crash was insane

[@trichomes420]

Jay man I didn’t expect you to crash into a tree and get up right away lol you should definitely do this again man!

[@LithuanianFilms]

Jack of all trades master of some, this was awesome! Haha 🤙🏻

[@jhope5994]

Holy crap Jay, i thought you'd broken yourself for sure on the tree. So great to see you having a crack at anything. I'm in Paris for the weekend. Went to a skate spot and there was a flea market there with tons of people. So I got a stunt scooter for $10 to cruise around on instead of walking everywhere, which is tons of fun. Found another spot, but no one on bmx, which was a little disappointing, but hey.

[@olik136]

good thinking adding 40mm of travel with those loose spokes

[@jaydalton]

😂😂

[@-_-Code-_-]

John Dalton is my spirit animal.

[@guambra2001]

That was amazing to watch

[@oogoozoo]

Cool to see the Mallen boys doing well. I used to see them every weekend out at Canyons as groms.

[@trichomes420]

Good job jay!!!!!

[@geraldfilmore6978]

Bro you were ripping that thang!

[@siTTinLo]

Dude……. On a fricken single crown mid travel trail bike…… you’re an Animal!! Great Job Mr. Dalton. 👏 And plus you got to cut a lap with Wynn Masters on the DS course. That would’ve been such a rad lifetime experience by itself. Idgaf what anybody says, Mountain biking is the Shit!

[@23nyte]

impressive noise cancellation on that microphone to be stood on the course that high up with no wind, heck yeah John!

[@jaydalton]

For sure. If you have a wind muff on the new Gopros the audio is actually pretty decent Edit: OH yeah my sportscaster mic is next level 😂

[@jefferson9428]

You’d probably be absurdly fast on an enduro bike

[@andrewrussell5393]

Big up John! 😂 Done so well dude considering the bike difference from a dh rig as well.

[@chrzzzzz]

Ayyy, I was sure I'd seen your face in Moi Moi's coverage. Good stuff!

[@jaydalton]

Hahah they were roasting the gopro setup

[@JIBBING_1980S]

Love it ❤ i like to see how the bmx person tries to downhill , they already has the basic bike skill mix together might be a good thing, same like Brad Simms does

[@Amadem]

GNARLY 🤙Glad you’re okay! Looks like you hit the limit with that Trail bike! I’d love to see you doing some slopeduro mods on it and flying it with your bmx steez and tricks 🔥 But I guess something FR/Superenduro like O1 Brrap would work for you much better 🤙

[@TheAstropotatoe]

The fact that you were bombing lines and getting swaggy on a trail bike in a track designed for bikes with at least like 30mm more travel is insane. This event should be a yearly thing you do and every year you come in with 10mm more travel each time 😂😂😂.

[@berniedmj1]

I was there with you Jay! I was clenching & grinding my teeth when you were bombing the downhill. I’m glad you didn’t wreck wreck yourself hitting that tree.

[@amdisthebest]

It's the end and my heart rate is just coming down. Love the MTB content Jay. Keep it up man. Seems you need an enduro bike :)

[@bullit4x]

Props man. You got a big ole brass set. I know plenty of guys, myself included that would freak out to have your skills. You got a subscriber after manhandling that tree.

Great riding Jay ... Mad respect for racing the DH on a Trail bike

[@jaydalton]

Thank you Rob :)

[@howejohn1]

Going that hard on a 130 bike is actually insane. You must have been holding on for dear life. If you had a full-blown DH/Enduro bike, you would actually place pretty well.

[@jaydalton]

Once the course started to break down I was definitely holding on for dear life, hahaha. After qualifying it was way too rough. Definitely want to try again with a bit more suspension :)

Dude, that was pretty epic, you did not finish but you are a legend with your positive view. I raced BMX, also did some XC before I switched to DH and now in my mid 50s race enduro just for fun as long as you race you always win. you got a one more Sub from this vid.

[@mineman8496]

I was about to say I seen Moi moi roasting your weapon of a chin mount at the whip off but I guess you seen it LoL you looked fast for a short travel guy in a DH race untill that tree, got lucky there

[@noniecabrera]

i recently subscribed coz i remember from Skills with Phil channel. First video that I watched was with your new bike and with the way you were riding i thought you could do some racing, Then I saw this vid. That other bike suits better for this kind of trail or even a proper DH bike and no doubt you'll be smashing these trails . Looking forward to more videos...including future race events....

shocked i did not see you up there!!! i did hear some youtuber crashed into a tree and lived!!!

Good effort! Next time, bring a more appropriate bike and win!

[@professordrippy]

Is there a reason for all the whistles as you go through the course?

[@jaydalton]

The officials blow a whistle when someone passes so the spectators and other riders know there’s someone coming

Riding that track on a 130mm trail bike is wild. Need to get on a DH for sure

[@Ironsights85]

that looks gnarly! how did everyone not crash!?

[@au08aaf]

I always watch this sort of thing and think it's the closest thing to rallying on two wheels. Do you fully memorise the full course with the runs you get before or are there certain bits you are dealing with on the fly each time?

[@jaydalton]

It really is. I did my best to memorize the layout, but it’s hard to remember every line you have to take and rocks/roots/stumps to dodge. With so many people on the course it changes A LOT every single run (as I experienced in my finals run 😂)

[@matthewglenn5326]

Grab an enduro for that chunk! Throw XC race tires on the 130mm for a fun thrasher, unless you're already running them on this race!
