The Farm in Farmington, Ut

[@Jamaicub12]

It’s been said already, but you’d really dig “The Farm” in Farmington.

[@MusicManMTB]

When was the last time you rode it? It is trashed right now.

[@michaelskembo4741]

@@MusicManMTB I just heard about it. Sad to hear it's trashed.

[@MusicManMTB]

@@michaelskembo4741 the blue and green trails aren't too bad but the black and double blacks are very scary right now, now because of any crazy features but because the jumps and berms are just in total disrepair to where they're too dangerous to actually hit. I just rolled through everything and would have definitely been wrecked if I took those trails at trail speed.

[@PorterMTB]

I heard that a lot, I'll have to check it out in the fall!

[@ziterj]

Thanks for sharing Eric!!! Love watching your videos. You do such great things and including your boys is so awesome!!! It's inspiring to me as a dad! Keep it up... Keep riding!

[@kwjazzman]

YES!!! Levitate is my home trail. So glad you road it

[@christiancurtis9277]

Great video! Love to see levitate on there. And get to know more Utah Trails

[@robtodd4726]

Great vid. Beautiful terrain! I love the spot of snow, even in the heat!

[@ClaypitMTB]

Those views are awesome, but the trails are even better!🔥🔥🔥

[@snbsmtb]

Yes

[@bridgermoody]

YESSS you finally came to Herriman! That’s where I live and I love hardlick! Nice video Eric!!

[@PorterMTB]

Thanks! You are luck to have that trail there, it's so fun!

[@ErikFritz08]

1:32 those connecting berms look awesome

[@jonjonRE94]

*I needed to replace my old bike (it was 22 years old). I absolutely love the **Latest.Bike** . It rides great, I love the color, and it’s a good bike for the money!*

[@Midnightrider1177]

Hey man, 3rd generation Midway boy here! That little blue trail at the very end of the video is my 3yr olds FAVORITE trail. Thanks for all you’ve done for the WTF and our local trials man!

[@PorterMTB]

Hey! Hope to see you on the trail! Thanks for the community support as well, it's so good here!

[@Mtbwitheddie]

Thanks for the video definitely check it out next time I hit up Utah

[@flamingapple06]

Live and ride in Utah for 2 years and still learning, but man... you guys ride so fast and totally rip! I can only hope to get to the same level at some point. Just gonna keep on riding. But so cool to see how a pro rides these trails. Would be so cool to just hit up any trail and completely smash it like you guys. Nice vid keep em up!!

[@PorterMTB]

Just keep riding and trying new stuff, it just keeps getting better!

[@itscolemartin]

It’s a good feeling to have a KZbinr in your hometown. It makes me want to go riding

[@PorterMTB]

What's up! Hope I see you on the trail!

[@kevinmuzikar2037]

All day shred. You go Eric!!

[@mattnbike1497]

great video once again! This video helped when I moved to SLC about 4mo ago. It was also really cool to meet you at the top of DV on the last day!

[@PorterMTB]

Glad it helped, that's awesome to hear! Also, welcome to the area! Great to meet you as well, hope to see you again!

[@isaacwardle7839]

This is crazy! I kid you not last night I was trying to come up with a list of trails I wanted to hit this summer. I’m definitely going to hit all these! Thanks for picking the good ones out for me Porter! 🤙🤘

[@PorterMTB]

Perfect! Happy to help!

[@sjohnson1691]

Thank you for this one!!! Moving to Utah in August can’t wait!!!

[@nealmcbeal3041]

Good luck, best decision I've ever made!

[@PorterMTB]

Welcome to town, you're gonna love it!

[@oldshovel]

We have some awesome trails here in Utah and more are in the works every day.

[@katybeard]

Yes we do!

[@CarsonWootenMTB]

Sweet video!!! The best way to get to the top of Levitate is Woods Hollow trail. It’s shorter and I’m the trees more so it’s cooler. Also, you guys NEED to try Jacob’s Ladder in corner canyon! It’s one of the only tech trails in corner canyon with only exposed rock and stuff like that.

[@PorterMTB]

I love that trail too!!

[@MikeG1505]

can't wait to hit these!!!

[@Jason-ot2nr]

Good stuff thanks for sharing

[@seniorcajun]

I just moved to Utah almost 8 Years ago , thank you for showing me some cool trails I'm originally from Louisiana

[@wyattschneidau3016]

Wow! I wish I had cool trails like that around me. Keep up the great work!

[@ZF35.]

Wow, this video was great!

[@ngarmy6602]

Nice love work 💪❤️

I’ll be in Heber City all next week. I might have to check some of these out! Good video!!!

[@PorterMTB]

That's awesome, hope you get to ride them!

[@Gehajjs62727]

I need to drive down to Utah to ride, y’all have such cool trails!

those are some amazing trails.

[@cameronburch3532]

Great video!!

[@travelingtheUSA]

great video eric

[@pmayhew9709]

I was just thinking about what trails I wanted to ride this summer! Ogden really only has the ogden bike park, awesome video Eric!

[@PorterMTB]

Hope you get to ride these! I do need to get up to Ogden, couldn't make it happen all in one day though!

[@colebrimhall5612]

Hey Eric I live in Herriman and you definitely need to come ride Hardlick again because after the sign their is a double black section that you have to hike a bike up to that makes the trail twice as fun!

[@PorterMTB]

That sounds really cool, I definitely wanna get back out there!

[@dannyogden]

Awesome video and their some awesome trail in Richfield utah that are fun

[@greysonc3719]

A little bit surprised that Bobsled trail up in North Salt Lake isn't on the list, but I can agree that all these trails are excellent!!

[@PorterMTB]

Bobsled is a great trail! This video was just riding new trails though. I need to ride bobsled again this fall

[@greysonc3719]

@@PorterMTB ohhh yeah I forgot about that bit 😂sorry. thats a great idea, bobsled is super great!!

[@highaltitudeskiing]

I agree with these selections

[@zigzachmtb2821]

I just rode hot dogger this morning b4 heading home. Short and sweet!! Great for banging out some quick laps.

[@PorterMTB]

So fun!

[@DirtSurfer97]

Hey they just rebuilt levitate again you should come try it this summer when it’s warmer there’s also a couple other trails up in draper that are really fun like Rush, I think you gotta try them out this year

[@PorterMTB]

Nice, that's great to hear, I can't wait to go ride there in the spring!

[@MtbSendersttcnr]

I live here in Utah myself I’m so glad we have all these trails here at home this sure is the place

[@PorterMTB]

We are so lucky to live here, so many good trails!

[@tannercondie6064]

I live in Utah and ride these trails often they are all so fun but you need to go ride maple hollow Draper

[@PorterMTB]

That is a great trail!

[@pierinoromero]

Moving on December! Omg! I’m from Perú and I’m so exited to try those trails!!!! So awesome!!! Like BY said….This is the place baby!

[@PorterMTB]

Awesome! You'll love Utah. I also love Peru though, I've ridden in Cuscu and Ollantaytambo, it's so much fun!

[@BasicBeachCommunity1]

so dry reminds me of Ca. ...awesome variety

[@ajailuriamei5298]

The berm very cool

Man your awesome

Awesome vid

[@PorterMTB]

Thanks Jeff! Hope we get to ride together this year

[@chandlerscadden6717]

I’m a local to herriman and would definitely recommend doing the rock rolls at the top of hardlick next time! Totally missed out there…

[@PorterMTB]

I didn't even know, will definitely hit that next time I go... probably in the fall when it's not 100!

[@jasonfenton7366]

Hoping to hit a bunch of these this fall.

[@cjf_mtb]

On hardlick you can hike up a little more and it is a black tech downhill that's pretty fun. Great vid btw

[@PorterMTB]

Thanks! Can't wait to try the hike up next time I ride Hardlick!

[@AlexGarcia-lo9hx]

Cool video, thanks!!!

[@AlexGarcia-lo9hx]

Also, I love the music!!! Makes me feel like I'm watching game play of Tony Hawk Underground 2 or something.

[@EnlistedTrailHeads]

Eric, don't be alarmed, but I think your being stalked. Lots of questionable shots from the bushes 😂, great video!!!!

[@seth_tightlines_davis8970]

Go to the Ogden bike park and bring your dirt jump bike

[@PorterMTB]

I would love to do that, I don't make it to Ogden enough!

[@pittgrewe1110]

Yeah buddy! Let’s keep building those trails! Let’s go ride the Iron Hills trail system in cedar city! More great brand new trails in Utah!

[@PorterMTB]

We are so lucky to have these trails here, lots of work to get them in! I would love to go ride those Cedar City trails, I've heard they are great!

[@BilBalFpv]

Sick

[@outdoorsiebros9115]

I love that area

[@heidisings8]

the farm in farmington for sure!!!!

[@itsawesomebub2354]

Red Knoll Run in Spanish Fork is really fun

[@mtbridersanonymous9152]

Looks like an awesome state to ride, i’m in Ohio we have some great trails but I really want to go visit some other places soon!

[@blameitonben]

Coming out to Oregon next week right? You should try the new jump line at Carpenter's Bypass (not too far from Oakridge). It's called "the Gift".

[@MacNSteez2602]

Nice vid

[@BenhPC]

9k is one of my favorite trails but you should check out Armstrong up at Park city resort. It may not be new but it is fun

[@PorterMTB]

That's a great trail, I ride it a lot to climb up to other fun trails too!

[@ryanwood4286]

You need to check out the down hill trail system Called the Farm!!! Farmington Utah

[@PorterMTB]

I've heard it's really fun, I'll have to ride there next summer!

[@cheever4242]

you should try brimetrail at powder mountain

[@PorterMTB]

I've never ridden that, I'll have to check it out!

[@dylanperschon8479]

Heck yeah Eric I love levitate one of my favorite trails I actually rode it this morning also I was the kid that said hi on that 9k ride I was stoked to meet you that’s was dope

[@PorterMTB]

That's awesome, hope to see you on the trail again!

[@milesparkinson2158]

You should ride Rush trail in Draper Utah

[@lewlons5482]

a great trail closer to Utah valley is the wow trail.

[@PorterMTB]

That is a great trail, it's actually uphill from Hot Dogger!

[@I4Hm]

Nice❤🤙

[@wasatchbackmtb4312]

Alternating Dead Reckoning and Arcylon laps = best bang for your buck.

[@PorterMTB]

Definitely, I love a warm up on Arcylon before getting into the big jumps too!

[@BasicBeachCommunity1]

9k is super gorgeous

[@WardellFam]

I live in utah too and it is awesome and you should take milord and owen to eagle moutain bike park some day it is cool

[@Yourlocalredneck556]

Oh man I rip corner canyon all the time. That is by far my favorite trail.

[@PorterMTB]

That's awesome, I can't wait to go back there this spring!

[@Yourlocalredneck556]

@@PorterMTB it’s a great spot there’s another trail that has a lot of berms and tables it’s called zooropa or something similar to that that one’s a blast too

[@mckayensign961]

You should make a video about the rush trail in corner canyon

[@donstafford9658]

I don’t live in Utah I live in Washington but when I was visiting I rode zen trail in Saint George

[@PorterMTB]

Zen trail is great, I rode it this winter!

[@andreionose6982]

Eric,you made me ride mountain bikes and hit new trails

[@PorterMTB]

That's awesome, keep it up!

[@trumanfuller5416]

You should ride a trail called rush its a pretty fun blue trail and was rebuilt recently. Great trail with tight berms and a few small table tops and gaps.

[@PorterMTB]

That trail is really fun, I need to go ride it again!

[@chrisrielly1739]

We need more uploads

[@PorterMTB]

I know, I wish I could get videos out more often, doing my best!

[@rccrawlerking8426]

This makes me want to ride

At Ogden bike park there's a 60 ft gap you might wanna check out haha

[@dexterconey2579]

Noice 🔥🔥

[@jachin132]

Try benny creek up payson canyon it's a really fun trail with so many different lines. It's a technical trail

[@PorterMTB]

I've heard that, I'll have to check it out next year!

[@florianspatz7964]

I really wish my region would have so many nice trails around

[@PorterMTB]

Hopefully you get more trails!

[@hadentillett7007]

Can you make a video of your gear that you trust for mountain biking

[@JHamsher98]

How about the farm??

[@carterlunt]

You should ride Mormon cricket trail in eagle mountain

[@theGiver3]

Yo I did that one the other day and about shat my pants at the insane step down jump over the manhole cover! Is that supposed to be a jump or just rolled?

[@kevinmeek]

We just gonna ignore the fact he said “paper, rock, scissors?” 😅

[@PorterMTB]

Haha there are a few ways to say it, apparently the way I've always said it isn't the most popular!

[@ClayGreen]

ERIC!!! We met in Sedona a year ago, or so... I've got a QUESTION For a PC Local. I'm heading to the area in 2023 summer. I've never ridden a lift served resort. I'm a strong intermediate, working on advancing and progressing. Riding a couple years old Giant Riegn, enduro, 29... Hitting 5-10 foot tables and growing my comfort with those... OH - I've been riding Sedona tech for a couple years. So 'tech' is good. -no, I have not ridden that white line... nor have I ridden down the more extreme parts of hiline... but I've ridden most of it! :-) WHICH ONE? There are so many options! The best bang for the buck would be a pass - but which one?? There are so many resorts and they all have that 'best feel' video, etc... Which 1, or 2 resorts would you suggest 'I' invest in??? Thank you Eric! LOOOOVE your stuff!

[@PorterMTB]

Hey! Good to hear from you! I missed Sedona this year, I love that place and can't wait to get back. That's awesome you're coming this way, you're gonna have a blast. Between Deer Valley, Park City, and Woodward they are all quite different. Overall Deer Valley is hands down the biggest and best bike park, for vert, variety, everything. They have great jump trails to help progress those skills, steep stuff, tech stuff, smooth flowy singletrack, really everything. Park City is really just a lift ride up about 1,500' vert and then you're basically riding the Park City area trails, no specific "bike park" trails. It's fun, relatively inexpensive, but more than anything it just gets you up the mountain a bit for fun rides. Woodward is really unique, it's got about 350' of vert which isn't much but the trails are packed with fun stuff all over, so each trail has a bunch of different ways you can ride it. Great for learning how to jump better as well since they also have airbags, pumptracks, and the whole inside section with a foam pit and resi. All good options, but to sum it up Deer Valley is your spot for a full on bike park.

[@ClayGreen]

@@PorterMTB You, and your fam, are SUCH an inspiration, Eric!!! Do you do any 'groupie rides' on any regualr basis? LOL - Would be GREAT to say hey and thanks in person! DV sounds like the spot. I'll be doing at least 2 days a week for hopefully all of July and Aug!! WEEEEE! :-) Thanks again Eric!

6:28 look at that grip in the bottom left corner it is so big

[@justinneufeld5623]

I think u got the time stamp wrong

[@peteanderson4901]

best of Utah my vote is Southview trails I.E. black opps, boneyard, lavaflow

Hey Eric looks so fun have you ever riden turkey springs bike park by Durango Colorado

[@PorterMTB]

Haha yeah I'm used to riding all day and talking!

[@jtgleave]

Hey what's up man! I live Sandy Utah and I'm looking into a MTB. I'm looking into dirt jumpers... Those trails look sweet! I'm wondering if I could ride those with a single speed dirt jumper? Also what are your thoughts on complete bikes like the Polygon Trid or Marin Alcatraz? Or are there cheaper options? Thanks

[@PorterMTB]

That's awesome! Dirt jump bikes are rad, but best for pump tracks, dirt jumps, and skateparks/street riding. You could ride Hot Dogger on a dirt jumper but it would be rough, I wouldn't recommend any of the other trails on one. Complete bikes are an easy way to get a great bike at an affordable price, custom built will be sweet but cost significantly more.

[@natescholtz]

I’d love to come ride these trails, the only problem is that I live on the other side of the world in South Africa
