Great video, Crashing Dad and RC!! You guys are what MTB'ing is all about -- challenging yourselves safely, courtesy on the trails, and FUN! Having watched Nate Hills ride on his channel, I can't believe there are some folks faster on that trail. Incredible! Wish I had your skills.....but, I'm 73 and came "late" to MTB'ing (LOL). Cheers.....stay safe and healthy!!

[@TheCrashingDad]

Ah, thanks so much for the kind words JD 🤘🏼 Yeah... Cutting this time in half just amazed me 🤯 most likely it's gained on the undulating traverse climb section 😂🤷🏼‍♂️ And duuuude ... The BEST time to start MTB is in the past... but the second best time is NOW 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼

[@TheCrashingDad]

"pinning it" isn't quite the right verbage here..... lol - Gotta be safe the last day of the Sedona MTB Festival 2020 on one of the most popular trails in Sedona. As promised... here's the raw run with no commentary: kzbin.info/www/bejne/q4S4mmSgndOVkJo

[@RidingMyBestLife]

I miss Sedona already. you are so polite.. Hi Line made my top 5 all time DH trails. so good. nice job.

[@TheCrashingDad]

Thanks Jason! yeah... Hiline IS one of the most fun out there... those hard spots are definitely HARD...

[@RidingMyBestLife]

The Crashing Dad next year you and I .. you can get KOM I’ll film the B roll

[@TheCrashingDad]

Lol... I'd have to weight 130lbs, wear spandex, and be clipped in .... I'm sure ALL the minutes are made up on the traverse/climb section in the middle...🤦🏼‍♂️

[@Hollywood8714]

That was cool man! I liked the style of that. You and RC freaking ripped. That was fun to watch.

[@TheCrashingDad]

thanks dude! RC is always hard to keep up with... fortunately he slowed down for me...

[@Hollywood8714]

The Crashing Dad yeah right. You were up his rear tire quite a bit! I don’t think he slowed you down, just saying he didn’t slow down for you! 😁

[@TheCrashingDad]

@@Hollywood8714 lol... in the beginning flow stuff, he TOTALLY had me... he's better in the flowy corners. I'm probably better in the chunk crux lines

[@RCRGIRL]

Rad! Cool seeing the lines on the DH section (the chute and beyond). My goal is to clear those (all of it) some day!!

[@TheCrashingDad]

From the short amount of time that you were towing me in on trails, i can tell that you totally got it! once you know the lines, your skill will kick in.Thanks Donna!

[@MTBLifestyle]

I would love to one day ride Sedona! Looks like a gnarly trail! Great commentary bro!

[@TheCrashingDad]

when this quarantine is over, get your butt over there! lol Thanks dude!

I really hope I get to be out there next year. I really want to see that place. Nice job on the time down.👍

[@TheCrashingDad]

it's QUITE the drive! lol... Sedona is definitely a different animal... very similar to Moab, but with more trees.....thanks dude!

[@TrailBreaker]

Dude, I love Strava even though I'm not the fastest bear on the trail. The post-ride data dump is glorious since I'm really racing against me😀 PRs are tough these days with EVERYONE on the trails from hikers to newbies on their bikes. Soon this will be over and we can get back to completely irresponsible riding 🤒 Nice👊

[@TheCrashingDad]

lol...seriously, THAT'S what i like strava for as well... racing myself!... but yeah... gotta stay outta those hospitals

[@TrailBreaker]

[@cjgauss6079]

Love the videos and you guys killed the tech. Also nice that you are so polite. Clearly more fitness would have made you guys faster in the middle pedaling section.

[@TheCrashingDad]

Thanks CJ! yeah... 100% agree! fitness is where people are DOUBLE our speed and get sub 5 minutes...

[@mc540flip]

Nice Job! I have yet to ride Hiline. It’s my buddy’s favorite, but he walks the Chutes. I’m gonna share your video so he can study the lines!

[@TheCrashingDad]

lol... when i watch it back on video, i think to myself "I remember it being way harder in person than it looks!" haha... Thanks Michael!

[@mc540flip]

The Crashing Dad ha ha, yeah that’s probably always the case with footage. Looking forward to shredding it!

[@bicyclebeardface9906]

way go sheyn, I like the commentary btw

[@judsmtb2484]

Great video as always. Your contents keeping me stoked during this pandemic! Do you find watching your footage back after rides helps improve you as a rider?

[@TheCrashingDad]

Thanks JUDS 🤘🏼 Hmmm... Oddly enough, I don't feel like it helps me improve...because of the serious GoPro effect, the footage always looks easier than I remember it being in person 😂🤦🏼‍♂️ If anything it gives me a false sense of confidence (if I'm not consciously thinking about the real trail in person)... Lol BUT it DOES make me think about line choice, and how I would've done things differently... IF I had the skill to do it differently lol

[@judsmtb2484]

The Crashing Dad Haha! I totally get that. Always interesting to hear others opinions on it! Keep up the content bro! 👍🚲😍

[@colindixon9543]

Nice one Sheyn, but 4 minutes what kind of lunacy is that ?

[@TheCrashingDad]

It's TOTALLY won on the flat/undulating/climbing section....probably on a non-busy day...early or late 🤔 But yeah... Mind boggling 🤘🏼😂🤘🏼

Nice run. When could you ride that trail without interruption to get a time in the 4's🤔🤔??

[@TheCrashingDad]

SERIOUSLY....I have NO idea... But I'm sure that the undulating flat/climbing part is where the minutes are had....

[@victorbautista9741]

NERDS.. STRAVA😂😂😂 STIILLL LIKE UR VIDS.✌🤟

[@TheCrashingDad]

LOL 😂 I guess now that I'd have to pay Strava for these stats, no more Strava 💩

[@mannyfnsc29]

Hey, how are you liking the Instinct with the 29 wheels compared to the Altitude?

[@TheCrashingDad]

I feel very similar about the two... Except the instinct has better rollover in chunder, as expected 🤷🏼‍♂️ I'm probably repeating myself from my Altitude long term review (500 mile Instinct BC review coming soon)... But I feel like it's a great all-round trail bike...feels like shorter travel than it is, and isn't crazy long and slack. But then on the big hits and big chunder, it opens up to its full potential. 🤘🏼

[@singletracktrucker]

Hey meng curious what headset that is for music. Been looking for a good alternative to the earplugs I run occasionally. Great vid as usual and glad you are coming back to the comment side of things.

[@TheCrashingDad]

Thanks Matt 🤘🏼 It's the Aftershokz Air wireless bone conduction headphones 🤘🏼 nice to still be able to hear everything around me... But doesn't give the best quality audio 🤷🏼‍♂️ give and take

[@MrGman400]

next time . use the garmin to record the ride and then it automaticaly syncs with strava . i record my activeties with my garmin phonix 3 and it syncs with strava VIA bluetooth or wifi when you use garmin conect

[@TheCrashingDad]

I'll have to figure that out 🤘🏼😂🤦🏼‍♂️ it's been a while since I've used this Garmin...it was from 8 years ago when I road biked... 🤷🏼‍♂️ I'll have to download Garmin connect 🤘🏼thanks!

[@chilled9905]

Any other trails you would also reccomend?

[@TheCrashingDad]

if you like the technicality of double black and black... slim shady and easy breezy are awesome... i really liked the Hogs trails...pyramid and scorpion make a fun loop... obviously hangover trail (another double black/red)... and i hear great things about Brewer trail, but i haven't done it yet....

How the hell did RC stay rubber down at 11:27!? He's a better rider than he lets on, so are you.

Lol...seriously. In person, I couldn't see through the dust, and I think I was more focused on my line...but when I looked at the footage, that was squirrelly,! 😂

This is awesome! I just made a super similar video last week of my buddy challenging me on some segments. I didn’t end up seeing anyone though haha.

Oh, I see how it is.. There are some people you prefer not to run over on the trail? 😆

[@TheCrashingDad]

Run over EVERYONE! 😎

[@RunThatRC]

It's funny because when I walk trails with my Rc car you get a mix of riders. Some just have no respect and charge down trails like they are closed for bikes only. Most like me are chill. Rude riders ruin it for everyone. I'm respectful enough to move out of the way when I hear riders coming but sometimes they come through a corner so fast and all they do is complain because you ruined there momentum or strava times. Little do they know I ride mtb as well and see the same rude people and they are different because I'm one of them now. I even had a guy that got mad at me when I was hiking but totally rode with me the next day without remembering me hahaha. I have respect for anyone on the trail. We are all out to have fun and everyone should just get off their high horse and be humble. Unless you ride mtb only trails you have.... now listen carefully you have no more right than other people doing other activities to be there. Rant over lol. Love your channel bro! Haven't rode Sedona yet but it's on my list! David Phx Az.

[@TheCrashingDad]

I'm 100% with you there (hopefully that's evident in my vid/commentary)... We're all people out there enjoying the outdoors 🤘🏼 I have yet to see a someone with an RC car on the trails...that sounds like a blast! 🤘🏼

[@RunThatRC]

@@TheCrashingDad it is fun. Little crawler for the rocks with 4 packs of batteries for a 9 mile total hike. Whenever we see riders we always wished we rode that day instead though hahaha. You be safe and ride safe bro!
