Riding Thunder Mountain With The Single Track Sampler!!! | NES Ep. #2

[@Candesce]

15:10 that synchronised head turn is killing me!

[@natejohnston480]

Ok was that planned or not...

[@fatadam16]

Karina Hahahahahah

[@77rockcity]

Phil & Alex, greatest duo since pants with pockets!

[@JamesSmith-rk9fd]

Man I'm digging the VLOGgy video! My vote is for more of these videos.

[@The_Sampler]

Huck yea, I liked it too!

[@travisstone3100]

Also wanted to say thank you. Its because of guys like you, Alex, Seth and Brian that I got into MTB. Every time I watch one of your videos I want to get out on the trails and shred!

[@The_Sampler]

Best thing ever. Making the world a better place one bike rider at a time!

[@Friskee62]

The STOKE is strong with you, my young shredder...

[@FlowFinderUSA]

Alex did a great job on the jumps. The first trail looks like the perfect run to practice getting airs!

[@SkillsWithPhil]

He sure did, wait until you see the highland video!

[@RasheedGonzales]

Can't wait, Phil!

[@The_Sampler]

Thanks dude! I got better every single run!

[@Friskee62]

YEAH you did...nice rippin' man.

[@tristanmorton1057]

What jump trail was it? Gronk or hawleywood?

[@jdwalker9718]

the Huffy podium photo is a classic

[@KerWeiKhaw]

I just collected my jaws from the floor after watching your berm jumps Phil. Simply perfect!

[@joesshop8810]

Its so hard to find dudes that are so talented on bikes or anything that actually take some time out of their day to talk to other people or kids even just sound interested in what they are saying these days its awesome to see people like phill do this. Its grows every sport in a massive way and gives kids that boost to keep at it. Good work phill love watching your, alexs and seths vids.

[@yoji58]

Great job on a new bike, Alex. Alex, whose riding is light years of my own, and then we switch to Phil in front and it looks like damn Speeder Bike fpv. You guys rock.

[@glenthemann]

Fuzzyyojimbo thought the same thing lol.. phil in front just flys

[@Snowcrestmt]

We need more of these vlog type videos on KZbin not only are they fun to watch but they show you a lot more than just a first person view of the trail!

[@fusabike]

Great footage from a great place to ride! Glad to get to meet you three and best of luck for the rest of Alex's Tour de New England! Thanks also for pointing out some double options on Blue Pulaski - those were creative (and sick!). Now for BKXC@Moab w/ Chasing Epic this fall!

[@SkillsWithPhil]

Thanks for showing us what trails trails to ride you honestly made the trip so much fun!

[@ScottyCiao]

Loving this...keep it up. I follow both of you weekly!

[@far-goautoparts2161]

Liking the vlog style Phil. It's what keeps me interested. At about the 14:30 mark in the video, when you pulled out in front, you were flat out gettin' it!

[@icupp8844]

"No one makes me bleed my own blood" -Skills with Phil

[@BurninatorTheTrogdor]

These guys could be brothers. Rad combo.

[@fullfacejosh6809]

Phil i always love the angry dolphins btw. Great sound effect and I never have to worry about sharing your videos with my kids

[@SkillsWithPhil]

I do my best! I know many parents are watching these with their kids so I try to keep these as PG as possible.

[@teknology01]

Alex was hitting those germs with perfect form GO Alex! phill u were an animal in HAWLEYWOOD!!

[@jfnurod]

Ahhhhhhhhh!! The feeling when your at work and a new Vid comes out!

[@acsaiyanbalce4610]

Been watching Alexanders newer vids and he's looking like a natural in this other park (do not know the name) clearing consecutive jumps, making strides and improving. He was yelling and screaming and staying stoked. So great to see!!

[@RGCastro7]

Awesome shredding, Phil! I really enjoyed the extra comments and vlog style.I think you're much better at it than what you give yourself credit for. Hailey and Alex were very entertaining to see, and it's easy to see that you are all having an amazing experience. I was really happy to see that you've restarted your Patreon, so I've signed up and sent some support that way. You're an inspiring rider, man. Thanks for playing bikes with us today!

[@jerryhack5192]

Alex, glad to see you survived that last run!! Man that thing had some pretty big drops!!! Great video Phil!! It was awesome to see you ride.

[@randomsauce801]

Great video I liked at the end having someone follow you with the camera fun to watch you ride.

[@landroid2020]

Phil, I'm going to take a sound clip of your signature "yahoo" and make it my notification tone! Keep up the rad work. love seeing the cross over videos!

[@Friskee62]

That was freekin' awesome...one of the BEST videos I have seen, great fun.

[@SkillsWithPhil]

Thanks Thomas, Glad you're stoked on the video and format!

[@henryplaidjacket7860]

I love the little shreddy Alex does sometimes at 13:46

[@jesseleonard827]

Phil your the gnarliest KZbinr there is, all the other dudes are awesome riders too, but when you wanna see some next level riding... I catch up on Phil!! Respect my man! Got a GT trail because of you, normally im a hardtail guy all the way but this things a Cadillac hahahaha. Thanks for all you do Phil

[@RasheedGonzales]

Awesome video, man. Great coaching tips and pointers for Alexander (and by extension, the rest of us) too!

[@garthhuett8678]

bro love the blog style. puts your personality out there more. plus the trails looked sick. also glad to see Alex getting some downhill in there.

[@AuzPete]

Awesome vid, really enjoyed the change. You know Phil is a freak rider when Tim (?) following on a DH bike struggles to keep up and is out of breath.. can't wait for the next Vid..

[@rologti]

Well done Alex!!! First time I see you jumping and you did it perfect! Giro Cipher, I have that one and I love it!!! Great video Phil, when you are at the front or with no one in front of you...you make it look so easy!!! Those burgers!!!!....my god...need one...now!!! Cheers from Chile!!!

[@joshporter1000]

I love the silent hub, you can hear the tires a lot better! great video and loved the vlogity style

[@1pho3nixmatt]

Dude the way you pick lines is fantastic. Awesome stuff from both ya knuckleheads. Also, the vlog style is sweet!

[@RyanVasquez6089]

You have to obey the laws of physics Phil.

[@SkillsWithPhil]

YOU"RE NOT THE BOSS OF ME!

[@starsandsoot]

lol

[@jerryhack5192]

I think Phil is like the roadrunner...he never studied the laws of gravity or physics!!

[@shaun89759]

Really excited to have vlog style videos from a fellow New Englander cyclist. Western Mass here. I subscribed yesterday when Alex said you were gonna do this. Thumbs up on this one.

[@willbros1499]

Oh, and that Hollywood trail looks every bit as good as A-Line in Whistler on camera. Good stuff, and you cleared everything...skilz on the boost!

[@bikesnboards91]

Man its so cool to see you open it up and let er eat Phil, absolutely ripping

[@TheswedishDane]

Amazing bikecontrol Phil. really confident and surefooted. keep rolling

[@BuckeyeMCS]

Love the angry dolphin! I also love the idea of you using the vlog approach. I think you and Alex are also a great combo. Keep up the great videos...please.

[@yashs8586]

OMG GO TO HIGHLAND! I live in MA I would love to go with y'all!

[@joeytoczydlowski7603]

Phill is probably one of my favorite KZbinrs To watch ride because his racing background

[@77rockcity]

'Fluffy Bunny line looked rad!

[@josealflores2372]

Phil ur a Beast bro, love the way you ride and the tips you give out in the trails. definitely helps out coming from a Pro Racer!!! Thx Bro!!!

[@rekamniar]

Skills with Phil is like the Mr. Miyagi of Mountain Biking. :)

[@phantomrider86]

Great videos, Phil. By the end of the video I could see Alex was already better at jumping ! Looking forward to the next video !!

[@SkillsWithPhil]

Wait until you see him jumping at highland!

[@handmasterflex1]

dude! that last bit of the video was epic! I cant wait to get my bike and start hitting jumps like that!!

[@Ecogreenism]

Doesn't matter what kind of videos you post, cause they are all awesome Phil. That being said I really enjoyed this vlog style video!

[@eddarell9474]

Thanks! Such a cool video at the bike park & vlog! 🤘😎

[@SkillsWithPhil]

Thanks Edd!

[@travisstone3100]

Love the channel and I really dig the new format you are trying out. Keep up the good work!

[@B1KER]

Great video Phil! Was a lot of fun to watch. Didn't even notice how long it was until it was over!

[@SkillsWithPhil]

Ahaha! Stoked to hear that. BTW you have some great content on your channel!

[@B1KER]

Skills With Phil Oh wow, thanks for the compliment! Thanks for watching!

[@The_Sampler]

I said the SAME THING!!

[@davidor3502]

Loved it!!!!!!!! Cant wait to go to Mountain Creek...soon.

[@BrianSchade2016]

This was super fun to watch. I like the style change. I also like seeing Hailey's involvement. I don't comment too much on your videos but just wanted to pipe in, say hello and let you know I really enjoy watching your channel. Keep up the good work!

[@skitid3767]

Thunder Mountian is one of the best parks in NE from the flow to the techy runs its so much fun.

[@garydecker3281]

Fun stuff. Alex looked way smother on that Orange than his Specialized. Very hard to see the trail on some of those single tracks. But loved how you guys play off each other.

[@Falestal]

It's so cool that you ride together and hitting it off (at least in front of the camera😃) Thanks for making my Friday an Inspirational Friday. I'm heading out to ride even tho it's really windy today in northern Sweden🖒

[@willbros1499]

Outstanding video! One thing that sets your videos apart is your willingness to ride so close to the rider in front. I have no idea how you do that and have time to react to the trail, because in every video I make when the speed is anything around 15 mph or higher, I'm always 1 second behind the front rider. That's the gap I seem to be comfortable with. Then on the GoPro, they look too far out in front a lot of the time, and sort of take on that "ant look." I guess it's from your BMX days that you can ride that close? It's COOL that you can do that, and you do it more than all of the other KZbinrs. I also think you're a great teacher with small comments to help Alex improve, and your delivery is always very unassuming and never comes across as critical. You'd be a great teacher...maybe from the experience of the "Skills with Phil" series? At any rate, LOVED this video, and you guys riding together seems to be a really good fit.

[@Deathrend8481]

Love the new video format! Alex is such a good rider, but he looks way out of his comfort zone on those trails! lol

[@JustinCaseWages]

Great variety of perspectives and editing technique! Super stoked to see Alex go from nervous to shreddy. 🤘

[@Danimal_Mtb]

Awesome video! Alex did awesome as well, keep up the good work and ride safe.

[@kaydnbenjamin774]

hey PHIL LOVE YOUR VIDEOS and when i watch them it makes me feel like i can fly. Keep up the good work man :)

[@nofrontbrakes]

I gotta say, I love the vlog style videos! Really turned up the temperature too with that nip slip.

[@The_Sampler]

lolol

[@lawrencebest2246]

I love Alex’s Orange Five the single pivot linkage is great 👍

[@samhaven4562]

Lawrence Best they lock up a bit when you go hard on the brakes but apart from that gotta love single pivot

[@iseeyou5953]

So much fun looking you guys biking 🤘

[@juliuslindberg3941]

[@mattmovesmountains1443]

[@bennightingale2497]

Definitely keep the blog style videos up Phil ❤️

[@02fxdl35]

I like these style videos please keep doing them

[@ReluctantRider]

So cool to see this kind of vid on your channel Phil!

[@dhood1980]

Alex's style really translates well to DH. He's a wild man just like Phil...lol

[@3ckell3]

After the date you cooked for the Sampler! He is a lucky man!

[@SkillsWithPhil]

New England Hospitality!

[@The_Sampler]

[@tn8584]

[@Icehso140]

One word.....Mondays. No lines...no crowd. LOL

[@whiplash231]

Got my first full suspension bike today but it will be a while before I get confident enough to even roll these tables!!

[@andyboy198577777]

Great video bro! You guys ride well together!

[@rassiracing5104]

I love Alex's jersey, I'm gonna have to look for that.

[@instinct022]

This is awesome PHIL..best video ever you made. Alex energy gave it a positive vibe. BEST VIDEO YOU HAVE UPLOADED..better than the rowdy video you made..

[@kimrice394]

8:10 First lovers quarrel!

[@kingrat738]

Skilz w/ Phil hauling a$$!! & a great guy to boot... Good to see S.S getting a little tutelage. Tim must be a Solicitor by day ^^ (wouldn't catch me on those big air TT's though) o_0

[@mikemarchetta3145]

Didn't even know this place existed... Thanks Phil

[@todduncyclist7974]

I don't even know which channel I'm on right now! ha ha ha quality video carnage

[@PeterCPRail8748]

Phil I like the bloggy style vid you should give more of these in your vid mix. Nice park to shred and great riding.

[@olivercole4832]

I love Thunder Mountain 🤘🏻

[@rockinfreemtb376]

Phil said "fluffy bunny"! lol

[@rockinfreemtb376]

awesome video guys, btw

[@SkillsWithPhil]

Thanks trevor!!

[@yungkevox]

Do more of this kind of videos really enjoyed it!

[@DamnTrue]

SUGGESTION: 4-way collab, "Game of BIKE" video with Phil, Alex, Seth & Brian filmed at like Northstar or something. Clearly, 3/4 of the participants have an advantage on the tech/steep stuff so to equalize that a bit.....no lifts.

[@teamtntstriperfishing5334]

Bromance at its finest

[@tannerhickman5986]

Yes!!!! This is great! The vlog is here!

[@filipcernak9975]

Great style of video didn't even notice it was 20 minutes long! felt like 5

[@d0u6s]

"Fluffy bunny".... psych quip!

[@SteadySpin]

Best part for me is the “other lines “ you take.

[@jojoaspi7398]

The hydro backpack gives away the noob. 😀

[@The_Sampler]

Absolutely no doubt a awesome video... again

[@zachmcgrath8766]
