RIDING STEEP AND WET TRAILS ON MY OWN - EXT SUSPENSIONS CHAT

Yooooooooo
Little solo ride with the dogo Remy just after my trip to Mexico !
Here I talk a bit about my EXT suspensions and why I love them so much, plus getting challenged on wet technical terrain :)

To add more confusion: I like the under chin mount (Skills with Phil style). It lets you get a lower pov so that things don't look too flat, but we still get to see where you are looking when you turn your head and the stability of the head mount

[@lima.duduardo]

Totally agree with you, bro

[@mauroalves33]

best cam

[@O1D4]

But it looks ridiculously dumb and dangerous... it even surpasses the top of helmet 'teletubbies' look as the silliest looking cam mount option.

[@lima.duduardo]

@@O1D4 Totally desagree with you, bro hahahahhahahahaha

[@scblurlt1962]

had the pleasure of being shown that route down gouranga by yoann , we broke it down just like that and was sorta chill , another great video

[@Thepoeticmtbr_The_poetic_mtbr]

Without doubt one of the most watchable mountain bikers on youtube. We've all laughed at ourselves when we've come off a feature that made us wobble, even the pros do it 😄👍😎

[@lynxg4641]

Would definitely have to agree, not the smartest move to ride those trails, in the wet, by yourself, but as usual, great riding. Best looking Remi I know, beautiful pup with the most amazing eyes.

[@dylansmyth]

I actually love the helmet cam, to me it feels like I can see the trail better and what to expect when I go out riding. The other side is that people probably like the cockpit view and can see what you're doing with your bars more. I don't think you'll ever make everyone happy. Probably an even 50/50 split! Do what works for you! :)

[@Ynot_Ride]

Usually use a chesty when I ride flow/jump trails where the terrain isn't rough because less thing makes shake When I ride trail like this in the video I use the chin mount, the had gives the extra steady to the GP hyper smooth Cheers

[@MrSkyline1337]

I like the chest mount just because it shakes and it gives you an idea how rowdy it actually is

[@gabandkisheeemp7600]

That was scary yoann!🤘🏼i like the chesty!🤘🏼cheers!

[@MikeyV10]

Yo Yoann, the secret to a steady chestcam is an extra strap around your chest that goes across the top of the chest mount plate, it has to be a stretchy strap though so you can breath. Great video btw. Peace.

[@soundwarper]

Love your riding, man! And REALLY love Remy the Trail Dog… 👊😎

[@SlowpokeRodriguez80]

The dogs eyes!!!!

[@onetwentyeight]

chest cam/helmet cam, both are good. click like if you want remy cam.

[@ChickenChopper1]

Great stuff as always! I think the helmet cam gives a better point of reference than the chest mount. Props for doing that slab in the wet on Rodeo Rose, I always do the easier rolls instead.

[@thereekz54]

Chin > helmet > chest. I like all 3 in that order. Great riding and great content as always Yoann! Was your hypersmooth on??

[@davidsch6490]

Very nice video again 🤙🏻but I really like the helm camera better. Gives more space to watch everything clearly, the chest is so near to the handlebar

[@robrider838]

Nice shock. Putting the E-Storia on my Rocky Altitude Powerplay this weekend. I'll then be able to ride double blacks in the rain like you right?

[@fabbike1805]

ouais yoann ton bike tape a l oeil bravo pour la promo ! en France y'a pas une agence par hasard ?

[@John.D123]

I’m confused because the video is butter smooth in the older episodes with the chest cam. Hopefully you can sort that out because it didn’t seem to be an issue.

[@andymajewski9084]

Are the younger guys on the team riding their Megatrails in mullet setup? I know the Era is 29er only, but I can see they have the tall headset cup. Or are they running 27.5 with 29er fork and the tall cup to offset the axle-crown difference? Are you having them run them in the 155mm Trail (more progressive) setting? I run a Megatrail mullet with EXT myself too, so interested to see how others are running a similar setup.

[@benbarber1863]

That Rodeo rose slab is scary enough in the dry. so much more intimidating in person

[@152killa]

I think the better GoPro chest Mount with the big padding helps a lot with the shaking brother but either way I’m watching!! I do prefer the chest Mount over the top of the helmet.

[@chrisumdor598]

I love the footage!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@jimbridges3720]

Chest mount is the way to go.

[@chimps4gimps]

Your dog is gorgeous ❤️

[@johndelosada5404]

Crazy skills and confidence great vid

[@vicenteguerra9230]

sick videos yoann!!!!!

[@fabiodalonzo620]

you're crazy to do that on wet condition dude!!

[@odinmartini8727]

chest cam with gimble or chin mount is supreme

[@Pozitivi]

Rémy!

[@aden9215]

Sick arcteryx 🙏

[@chadclark2070]

That was crazy in the wet

[@hobbes8737]

yea totally, i know these lines well and the camera makes it look chill. these lines are so fucking steep, and in the wet seems impossible to me . cool to see this and open my eyes to whats possible on the bike.

[@blairparkinson8118]

Chin cam for the win

[@samuelc8235]

Salut yo ! Sachant qu'ext développent un amorto a air, tu comptes l'essayer ou le ressort hélicoïdal te convient parfaitement ? PS: la chest cam quand tu vas vite ça secoue vraiment, mais dans le tech ça donne un bon point de vue donc à toi de choisir...

[@mattns13]

Nope it’s gotta be the helmet cam Yoann! Picture quality while the bike is bucking is terrible with the chest cam and the bike frame is obstructing the view! Love the videos!

[@Wizler71]

Agree, all I can see is BIKE! Very distracting.

[@Jacob99174]

Excellent video and review, thanks

[@superchickensoup]

Are you running a reach reducing headset on that bike

[@Soccerismylife123356]

Should add a camera on the doggy! Probably a sick POV !

[@amosmtb]

Yoann, I love your videos!! The chest mount without a gimball seems too shaky.

[@infoatnorcal2304]

Remy is sooo awesome!

[@hobbes8737]

So sic man, was hoping you would of stayed left in RodeoRose. Im curious, Did you see the steeper left line @6:00 in rodeo and feel its not possible in the wet? That last slab staying left in Rodeo is the best but its not in your video.

[@YoannBarelli_IntoTheGnar]

We will be filming rodeo rose on Sunday under the rain, everything is rideable in the wet 😉

[@hobbes8737]

@@YoannBarelli_IntoTheGnar ohh yea! Love your videos man , your level of riding is so high . I wouldnt think these lines are possible in the wet . Truly eye opening . Hmmm , What about the governator slab in the wet !!???

[@lewisatkinson7277]

Hey Yoann, super stuff as always! I really enjoy the way you mix it up 🤘. A tech-related question if I may on the brakes. I just took delivery of TRP DH Evo's and I was wondering what your prefferred bed-in process is? I dread the whole 30 runs @ 15-30kph way and was wondering if that was necessary with the Evo's. Thanks 🤙

[@fe9523]

How did you silenced your arma v3 that much?, mine is brand new and sounds like a broken box

[@Max-dj5qj]

Remy ❤️👍

[@rubbersidedown5620]

Chest mount probably gives a better view but to make it not really shake you need a gimbal which is bulky and $$. Chin mount/head mount adds a lot of stabilization without needing a gimbal.

[@th_js]

This was a really good video! 👍🏻

[@lukerobertson4557]

This was like a mini "Into The Gnar"

[@chaconWOOOOOO]

Remy lol

[@Fluflo83]

To have more traction at the front wheel you go with a shorter stem ? 🤔🤔

[@hobmarg]

If the reach is long enough, and you run a reduced offset fork then yep short stem. This way you get the benefits of a long bike (stability, room fore/aft on the bike) and the handling/steering benefits of a shorter stem vs. traditional 60-70mm whatever length stems.

[@Fluflo83]

@@hobmarg wow, did learn something new also today. Thanks man

[@HeretiCflow]

Yoann! The chest mount is too shakey! 😆

[@daltonknapton]

Tip for the chest mount: do the straps up as tight as they go. Feels a little uncomfortable at first but it makes it the most stable and has the least shake.

[@paulmanias8269]

What does Metailler think of your dogs name?

[@billmcmillan7735]

What length stem are you using?

[@jonathanangieri153]

Are you running the stock damper tune on your ERA or did you have the compression or rebound tune altered? Great video! i have a V1 ERA and im still tweaking settings to find that sweet spot

[@05GDF]

Madness 🤘

[@OSM_Enduro]

"Maybe not the smartest move to ride this thing on my own" Yoann, you were not on your own you were riding with Remy! ;-)

[@zobilamouche420]

Ouais la chest cam c'est vraiment shaky si t'as pas de stabilisation (via la caméra ou avec un stabilisateur 2-3 axes) Une bonne alternative c'est la chin-cam (Dale Stone utilise ça tout le temps quasiment), c'est pas mal stable vu que c'est sur ta tête, et c'est moins haut que sur la tête :P Au moins tu record a 60fps, ça donne une image bien plus claire qu'à 30fps où c'est une bouillie de pixel dès que ça tremble un peu

[@dunin.majewski]

chin mount is much better when you ride behind someone and film his action and movement. I personally like the chest mount for myself, gives much better perspective what is happening with the bike on the trail.

[@mikestokke1094]

what happened to jackson?

[@joe-dy9we]

Your a beast!!

[@seanknight9898]

I could actually hear the pucker. 😳

[@thecakeisalie7070]

490mm reach! I'd be in a plank position on that bike! Neat to see an air spring version of progressive spring rate. How does progressive spring rate compare to adding compression damping adjustment? Are there suspension out there that utilizes progressive compression damping circuits? I really like the insight into racer mindset of "Jumping and skipping a feature is safer than riding it."

[@LifeOfAndrewKing]

🔥🔥🔥✌️

[@swietiboyxd]

I like, when you see the bar and front wheel on the video, but that’s really shaking 🙈🙈

[@darkomtc]

Camera under the visor, IMO, looks the best, since it gives the closest point of view to a rider. It allows a watcher to see where the tire hits and learn. Watching the chestmount POV makes me feel like I'm squatting and licking the frame. :D

[@chrisumdor598]

at 4:06🤣🤣🤣🤣footage =👌👌🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@mtbville]

Nice 🤘🔥

[@CHuber-ct9np]

tbh I prefer the chestmount. I like to see a little more of the bike and how you handle it in certain situations

[@bobross5195]

YOOO-AAAAAAAAHHHHHHH NNNNN you need to ride wis the chest mount ET LA helmet mount... baguette 🥐

[@WhiteVnR]

Salut yo ! Si t'as le choix pourquoi tu essai pas de repasser sur la taille en dessous de cadre. Le reach que t'annonce me fait halluciner !!! A moins que tu fasses 1m90 ??? Lol

[@piciu256]

I've seen someone ride down this on a city bike I believe 🙃

[@brentcollins9727]

That bike is so sexy

[@5erTurbo]

Chest cam is horrible :D Way more vibration.
