First Ride on Blue Magic || Killington Bike Park's Blue Jump Trail in Vermont

[@GoodTrails]

What's your favourite Blue rated trail? Maybe I'll be able to go and ride it one day!

[@ryanwest9267]

The Gronk at Thunder Mountain Bike Park, MA. So flowy, so many jumps!

[@GoodTrails]

I have to make it out there in 2020. That place looks amazing!

[@amasamadi4560]

Tiddlywinks at bend, Oregon. Probs one of the best blue jump trails with a lot of side gaps

[@GoodTrails]

@@amasamadi4560 I have heard about that one before!

[@ryanwest9267]

Jester at Burke Mountain, VT. It has so many lines and an insane wallride!

[@leleblanc91]

That bend disk sound :'( great vid as usual !

[@GoodTrails]

Haha yeah it was bugging me too! I'll have to pick up a new rotor for 2020

[@jasonstepler4613]

Yup!!! Notice it immediately

[@jasonstepler4613]

Lol!!! “ that was also weak” DOPE Video dude!!!

[@GoodTrails]

Haha I've been working on those for a while now and they are starting to looking pretty good!

[@jereddennis4110]

Great vid thanks for posting something fun to watch that wasn’t 30min long!

[@GoodTrails]

Haha thanks man! I haven't figured out how to keep 30 minute videos entertaining yet... hats off to the guys that can tho!

[@Soniksessions]

Nice! Looking forward to hitting Killington in July. Thanks for the preview.

[@GoodTrails]

You are going to love it! They have such a solid foundation for a bike park now. I hope they keep expanding because it could compete with the best of the best parks.

[@saywhaatnow]

Killington is probably my favorite bike park in VT!! We've got tons of amazing singletrack to explore as well (I see you've already found Perry Hill). If you want some unadulterated gnar, take the shuttle up to the top of Burke bike park and ride upper J-bar.

[@GoodTrails]

I plan on spending more time in VT in 2020. What do you think about the green mountain trails?

[@topspot4834]

@@GoodTrails imo they're somewhat overrated ... IDK, maybe it's cause I don't go often enough, but everytime I go to VT I see no reason to go anywhere else but Killington ... Nothing really compares

[@PeterCPRail8748]

Nice and smooth. Money well worth spending. It will bring in more novice riders.

[@GoodTrails]

Exactly. Bike Parks are the place to get new riders into the sport. It's safer and they can get lessons and food.

[@GoodTrails]

@Jonathan Krasner Jefferson Forest has some great trails!

[@ronhau1542]

Ty for the videos! Enjoyed

[@GoodTrails]

Glad you liked em! Thanks for watching

[@aidenthwaits2646]

Other than that little bit of brake rub the trail and video were sick👌🏼👍🤘

[@GoodTrails]

Haha yeah that brake rub bugs me too!

[@danielmayers8092]

Great vid man

[@GoodTrails]

Thanks dude! I'm happy with the way it turned out

[@ethanurowsky8846]

sick riding man

[@GoodTrails]

Thanks!

[@nicholascaptures]

I havnt been to Killington yet. Hopefully this year. Ontario just isn't cutting it for me anymore.

[@GoodTrails]

I felt that way a few years ago in 2017. Since then, I've rode in Alberta, BC, Quebec, New York, Vermont, New Hampshire, Nevada, Arizona, California and Florida. I've now started to come back around to Ontario. I'm starting to get more interest in Backcountry riding, Bikepacking and XC. For all of those genres - Ontario is great. But for Downhill - your money is best spent somewhere else like Vermont or Quebec. Whiteface Mountain in New York is also ridiculously good.

[@ToogyHowser]

I can ride this trail, just not clear any of the jumps haha! I also need to lay off the brakes lol

[@GoodTrails]

Sadly there's not much like this to practice on anywhere in Ontario accept for Blue. And even Haole is harder than this Blue Magic trail

[@justingodin7806]

I heard someone say they can always tell when someone struggles with jumps because they always hit jumps straight on and land as straight as possible. Would you agree that, and why? I noticed you hit every jump starting from the far right.... Thanks. I'm new. Just started clearing jumps on Gronk at Thunder Mountain (I say that assuming you're from New England).

[@GoodTrails]

I don't think that is true. If you watch BMX racers they hit jumps pretty much straight on. I just find it more fun to move from side to side on a jump

[@luigavino631]

Im not sure if someone already told you but how come your brake cable is routed outside your fork that is prone to clipping objects.

[@GoodTrails]

Hey thanks man! It has been fixed now.

[@luigavino631]

No worries man!

[@deebrat4444]

Nice!

[@GoodTrails]

You're nice!

[@jeremytabechian196]

2:07 3:34 Stepbrothers, right?

[@GoodTrails]

Haha yah

[@alpd7638]

Minions rush. You know where to find it ;)

[@GoodTrails]

Yeah dude! It's been a while since I've rode Minions. It might be my favourite trail at Blue actually

[@Happy_Biker]

When were you there?

[@GoodTrails]

It was near the end of August, the day after my last video which was at Highland Mountain Bike Park.

[@beauparent2861]

Hitting killington tmmr

[@GoodTrails]

Nice!

[@mikeg3234]

There’s a weird buzz noise coming from your Stumpy

[@GoodTrails]

It's the front brake rotor. It's warped

[@ronanM-L]

Have a good day!

[@GoodTrails]

Thanks! You too!

[@incredible5587]

build more like 2018
