North Shore Tech Is Scary, But That's Why I Enjoy It!

[@fivetool]

I love the Hailey clip. We jump to her and there is a sign that says "Danger" and she is laughing before proceeding. She definitely leveled up on that rock roll.

[@Friskee62]

Good for you, Hailey...

[@kenanjones3481]

having just come from Remy's latest video, would love to see you ride with him sometime. I bet yall would do some wildly fast tech rides! also the algorithm has shown me some like 6 year old videos where you rode with the singletrack sampler and I would love to see you collab again, you're two of my favorite youtubers and you both have such good vibes, makes me want to get out and ride!

[@troybrouillard5266]

Wow. That top section 😮

[@SecretSpots]

Sick riding as usual! I've been fantasizing about riding SDM, place looks epic. ... BTW, I paused video at 23:11 for a phone call and WOW does that meal look delicious

[@mtbjourney8209]

Sick looking trails. Slow tech isn't my jam, but I like the variety and the idea of learning a new skill set

[@Friskee62]

Right on time...

[@SkillsWithPhil]

Perfect video for a Friday!

[@DandyHippo]

Phils with skill

[@Liam.Lacoste]

We have amazing trails here all over our beautiful province, Québec is great if you enjoy nature. Please come visit more often and thank you for showing off QC to your lovely community.

[@1luckyleppy]

Love the video Phil. SDM is my go to place in QC. Nice work on Mammoth ⚡️

[@GarySixSixty]

crazy good trails…like to see you do some more of the slow tech ones…

[@stevemendelson4711]

Looks so fun and Good on you Hailey !!!

[@ridelikekrum7707]

killing it Phil!

[@LaurentiusTriarius]

I think you're a really great all around rider you shouldn't make excuses. I'm a tech and freeride uber fan and I still fall off of skinnies at 42 yrs old, nobody can master EVERYTHING. You're so fast you'd probably make me doubt my competences if we rode together 😅

[@jackporatti986]

I don't know why, but the slow tech trails are my favorite to watch!!

[@tysonradcliff3428]

Man, being new to this, these trail look insane, looks fun tho. Lovin the content man.

[@bchearne]

As an amateur trail builder, that amount of rock building makes me drool. It takes me roughly week to get a fifty foot section of good rocky tech trail built. So fun, but so time consuming

[@SkillsWithPhil]

Agreed. People really underestimate how much time goes into rock work. Searching for, moving them to the work site, and then laying them out are all really time consuming stages, and it's really tiring. The processes is slow and frustrating at times, but usually worth it.

[@cycleandlife]

Wow !!

[@dylangamednl2709]

Nice time i was waiting for a video

[@Ptremp]

Viking at that speed in these conditions... What a beast

[@encapsulated_nomad1359]

Hailey cheering herself on is adorable

[@scrappy7571]

Do you have velcro tires? That looked so greasy, and you made it look so easy.

[@joeshawcroft7121]

That Mammouth tech looked Philthy.

[@joshuamaes8737]

Phil thy 😂

[@tomassanesson902]

Amazing video

[@TheRotundRider]

Just back from my first trip to Whistler. Two days. I brought extra pads for my breaks, but didn't put them on after Day 1. My inability to slow down on Upper Joyride led to a massive crash on the steep rolls, and a runaway train on the last long slab. Pretty much ended any tech riding after that.

[@cunning-stunt]

Wore mine to the spring on a long ride and ended up with the spring pulled half way through between the pad and rotor. Ditched the spring and the brake worked fine for the rest of the ride. There is enough wiggle in the rear disc as you ride to push the pad out of the way. The spring is not as important as you think and there is enough material left, when it is out of the way, for a couple more rides.

[@eziola]

I like watching Hailey Land. More of that!

[@righteousbob272]

Let’s go!

[@jc9301]

Bet you will never make that brake pad mistake again...fun ride...wet wood makes me nervous too!

[@ΘάνατοςΧορτοφάγος]

That must have been a huge amount of work building such technical trails

[@Liam.Lacoste]

Labor of love, and it shows. The people building these trails are some of the most passionate people I've ever met.

[@johnvocatura]

WTF that track. damp n tricky. Sick.

[@Sendboi35]

Phil + pizza, mmmmmm

[@GhislainLeduc]

you’re skills are out of this league man you are good…

[@PeterCPRail8748]

Quebec is giving BC a run for its money for Canada's MTB crown. For what they lack on elevation, they make up in type of trails.

[@DontWorryImAPilot]

Phil rides everyone else's hardest trails like it's a faster lap 2 of his local warmup. Bonkers.

[@Ttvmightymachine123]

Can we please get a whole video of Hailey only! (If she's okay with it)

[@FreerideQuebec]

wait, there's something outside Phil's confort zone?

[@SsmAnyfeSt]

That's not even true... clickbait bs!! 😒 🤣🤣🤣

[@Mr.Random-v9s]

Nice work! Just a suggestion but would you ever check out Highland mtb park in New Hampshire?

[@SsmAnyfeSt]

😂😂 Let me guess, you're new here eh!?!

[@SkillsWithPhil]

I'll check it out! ;)

[@kroozctrl6284]

Hate to be condescending, but you do realize he goes to Highland bike park every year. Opening and closing day. He has countless videos at highland. You going to suggest he go to Whistler, big bear, mammoth, spider mtn, Seth’s house, etc he’s been there and has videos.

[@Mr.Random-v9s]

No I'm not new, I know you have 14 videos on Highland, I ment to say "again" 😅

[@SkillsWithPhil]

@@Mr.Random-v9s You scared me for a second! I'll definitely go back to Highland this year, but I'm pretty busy for the next few weeks.

[@BowzKnows]

Were you there the last weekend of June? We must have just missed you!

[@SkillsWithPhil]

This was from Last leek, we on a more scheduled trip this time because Quebec City MTB was sponsoring it.

[@odyssey6684]

Wonder how many rims were destroyed on this trail. Suspension or not, the bike took a beating.

What an amazing trail isn’t it?

[@dylangamednl2709]

Jo Phil i have a question can you buy a gt bike in the netherlands

[@ΘάνατοςΧορτοφάγος]

Well, French, Spanish and Italian evolved from Latin, so sort of the same right?

[@SkillsWithPhil]

English, and Dutch are both Germanic languages and i sure as hell can't understand Dutch :P But yes there's a lot of similarities and thats what adds to the confusion, sometimes you'll mix up the vocabulary from one language to another.

[@mybadvideos]

8:30 sweating profusely onto his GoPro? ;)

[@SkillsWithPhil]

Yes, that is indeed sweat raining down 🤢 I have never met anyone who sweats more than me.

[@SsmAnyfeSt]

​@@SkillsWithPhildont worry, I know 2 or 3 guys that are like you! You are not alone! 😅

[@playerzerothree9008]

FI RST

[@ΘάνατοςΧορτοφάγος]

Parles vous Francais Phil?

[@LaurentiusTriarius]

Parlez-vous Français? Well.. hmm maybe 😂

[@OmnieStar]

How come no one uses like the recycled rubber planks for the "Wood"? Would 1million % be more grippy and wouldn't rot out. There has to be something other then "wood is easier" that I am not thinking of lol Edit: Iv seen like chicken wire wrapped wood features, not really sure how much that adds for grip.

[@xzcion]

Even if it's recycled rubber, it's still rubber and will not decompose?

[@shiramano]

how tf do you not crash on that wood? I crashed just watching it.

[@Bryce.likes.wheels.and.motors]

There is somthing out of his comfort zone

[@alexisonbike3652]

Flabergasted that you are running g2's ...

[@SkillsWithPhil]

Honestly they aren't as bad as people make them out to be. I'm not saying they are my favorite, but they definitely work fine for most of the things I'm doing with this bike.

[@LaurentiusTriarius]

I have so much of these pads lying around it's not even funny. I love the db8's people think I'm crazy. If you're okay with the G2's you should try the DB8'S with good pads once bled maintenance free for the season. SRAM didn't lie this time 😂
