Awesome video and great location ☮️☯️

[@willgreenfield]

Thank you!! Glad you enjoyed the video :)

[@oliverbourne9599]

Le Pleney ..... never changes. Some skitty, dusty hardpack right there. You were on it riding that stuff

[@willgreenfield]

Haha funny you should say that it never changes... since i last went in 2018 or 2019 there has been 2 major line changes that i was not expecting at all! Still sick tho of course...

[@Pozitivi]

Nice riding Will ! Morzine is one of the best for sure !

[@willgreenfield]

Thank you bro! Yes it's a crazy place!

[@willgreenfield]

Thanks Tim! Bit scary in an open face haha but still super fun

[@Wyoming_Wild]

Definitely crushed it!

[@willgreenfield]

thanks!

[@MrCrazeDawg]

Damn sick riding, I cant even go 1/3 of your speed, and I lowsided those famous 10% lol. Think have spotted you last week your buddies, as that Forbiddes was hard to miss hehe

[@willgreenfield]

Thank you bro! And lowsided??? Oh yeah probably, Mason's Forbidden is definitely an interesting build... it's a trail bike and downhill bike at the same time! Hope you had a sick time there :)

[@MrCrazeDawg]

@@willgreenfield thanks mate, had wonderful week shredding, first time in Morzine it was. Will be returning for sure, just to get the 10% and to get faster down the black line! Yea my bike was faster than my body, front wheel washed out and I followed🥲

[@Stevo_YouTube]

I just ordered one of these Evos so glad to see it's capable but I'm also glad I'm taking my Tues as my arms would not last as long as yours did. I still won't go as fast as you on my DH bike though. That was rapido!

[@willgreenfield]

Thanks bro, tbf i did have to take pretty regular rest breaks cause on the smaller travel bike your arms and legs defo feel it on the rough stuff! Cheers for watching

[@jimmeridda]

Ooof! Good stuff. What s blast

[@willgreenfield]

Thank you :) Cheers for watching and commenting!

[@_dylankiefer]

fantastic riding, any thoughts about the capability of the Evo compared to the regular stumpy?

[@willgreenfield]

Thank you Dylan! Sadly i haven't ridden the normal Stumpy yet, but i think the most noticeable difference will be the travel... all the rest of the numbers seem pretty similar. Would love to try one! Thanks for watching bro :)

[@wiktormusialik7593]

Hi Will, awesome riding. I have the same bike and I would like to know what geometry settings you had and what pressures you were running?

[@willgreenfield]

Thank you bro! I was actually using the stock geo settings on this trip, the middle headset setting and the high BB setting... however i've recently changed the head angle to the slack setting and i wish i'd done it sooner (for this trip especially). Can't remember my exact suspension pressures but for the tyres i was running somewhere between 22-25psi in the front and 26-28psi in the rear. Hope that helps!

[@tomstockton6865]

Best line in the alps !

[@joaomoura6581]

new video equals happiness 😁

[@willgreenfield]

Glad to hear you enjoyed it bro, thank you for watching and commenting :))

[@whatdrewdoes]

camera shots so clean! cant wait for this years France vids

[@alexeimochalov3382]

amazing speed on the berms! What was the geo set at?

[@willgreenfield]

Thank you! The bike geo was actually completely standard, although i do regret not putting it in the slack head angle setting for this trip haha!

[@SnowShackboy]

Damn you fast as heck boi. Are you running the stock tires on that bike?

[@willgreenfield]

Haha thank you! Yes they are the stock tires, T9 butcher on the front and T7 eliminator on the back!

[@avimw007]

Nice ridee Have you convert to mullet?

[@willgreenfield]

Thanks! And no it was still 29/29!

[@avimw007]

@@willgreenfield I"m looking to buy stumpjumper evo This vido was very help me decide! Did you ext the rear shock with cascade link? I afraid 150mm is not enogh

[@willgreenfield]

No i didnt try the cascade link, but my friend did and really liked it! I definitely wish i did in the end and i agree 150mm was not enough for a lot of trails especially in morzine! Glad u found the video helpful :)

[@MrSupermugen]

whats rattling???

[@lukestevenson7927]

That snake at 5:25 👌

[@willgreenfield]

Thanks bruh!

[@elrikanos401]

👌👌👌

[@cs.adventures]

How tall are you and what size stumpjumper?

[@willgreenfield]

I'm between 6ft and 6'1 without shoes and it's an S4

[@cs.adventures]

@@willgreenfield is it on the smaller side? Im 5’10 and am between s3 and s4.

[@willgreenfield]

@@cs.adventures i would say the s4 was pretty much the perfect size for me at my height... you're probably right in between sizes so you'd want to make the decision depending on what type of trails you ride, and your riding style...

[@Veez2]

Can u try the Berm Park next?

[@willgreenfield]

Where's the berm park??

[@Vandal-Vlogs]

Was it enough?

[@willgreenfield]

it was, the bike did really well! It definitely wasn't as comfortable or fast as 200mm of travel tho haha! Cheers for watching :)

[@th_js]
