Unchained | Buena Vista's MTB Slab Playground

James Business- bit.ly/FloatAn...
After riding Vitamin B in last weeks episode, it only seemed fitting that we check out the other "tech" slab trail in Buena Vista. Unchained is in the Midland Trail System and offers plenty of spicy options to keep the levels where they need to be. Hop in the train with James Weingarten as we grab our first lap ever on this instant slab classic. Love your work, BV. And in case you were wondering, James doesn't go through very many back tires....

I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again - of all the amazing riders you follow, James is the one I look forward to seeing the most. 🤯

[@natehills9388]

It’s like choosing between children. My friends are rad!

[@1977enoch]

Favorite trail in BV and always a pleasure to see the dynamic duo master it!

[@jasonerskine8316]

Good to see you in the rear view of "bunny hop" James once again. Awesome trail and great riding.

[@natehills9388]

Jump everything always 🙌🏼

[@two2pedal289]

Good to see James' back!

[@natehills9388]

Always a pleasure

[@petedog9581]

Definitely a throwback vid w James and the chonky jank. No need to gas out your arms with pumps on rollers when you just nose manual all of them. That James is something.

[@natehills9388]

Legend!

[@NH-il6uc]

You know you’re in the right place for awesome jank when there are alt lines EVERYWHERE!

[@natehills9388]

Truth

[@davisbenson664]

So much fun to see you and James shred this! I think my favorite part of riding this trail is the triple huck @2:29. James making the big slab line look that easy is incredible. I've chickened out on that just...so many times. Thanks for showing off some fun new line choices!

[@natehills9388]

That triple huck to flat is amazing. Need more of that in my life 😂

[@Twowheeledchaos]

Nice job making the least flowy trail n the valley look good 👐

[@natehills9388]

Struggling along out here, haha

[@preranachatterjee2195]

Great technical ride with James after a long time!! More power and energy 🔥💪

[@FatTireVanVentures]

I rode this back in October awesome trails 🎉

[@natehills9388]

Hell yeah.

[@Scott-mk7tz]

Looks like some tough climbing at 6:30. You and James are the tech climbing masters!!!

[@natehills9388]

Just cause we “can” climb, doesn’t mean we want to 😂😂

[@stevebilstad7532]

Take a shot every time Nate says "Yeeeooooo!"

[@natehills9388]

Dangerous game.

[@maartenrijdtver]

Awesome, Colorado is on the top of my list to visit when travelling to the USA

[@natehills9388]

Please do!

[@bullseye0112]

Dang Nate Nice navigating down that tricky rock area at around 5 minutes and 30 seconds. It's the one where you slowed down a ton because it looked so treacherous😂. Can't believe James is riding a mega tower!

James is a ninja

Sick! I rode this back in April on my 120. It did fine, but I wish I had the bigger bike. 160 def. the correct weapon. Bike party on.

Cool stuff! That reminded me of the 50 year trails area outside of Tucson.

[@natehills9388]

Similar vibe for sure.

[@mrdrifty6580]

Dang BV is killing it. S mountain in Salida is pretty fun to

[@natehills9388]

Banana belt provides 🙌🏼

[@FoCoFlowShow]

That place looks amazing - nice riding

[@natehills9388]

Definitely worth a rip.

[@garyharmon5386]

Awesome riding. Still enjoying the Ergon saddle you recommended

[@natehills9388]

Happy bottom.

[@eugenespreutels8305]

So good, James is just amazing to watch. What a fun playground that was. I've been to Buena Vista many times in the past, didn't know they had such cool trails. I'll have to make another visit.

[@natehills9388]

Always a pleasure riding with James. Definitely more to explore in BV.

[@ronsanderson99]

Outstanding!

[@natehills9388]

Been riding the same rear for years 😂

Man I gotta check this out! Love me a good slab

Proper slab jank 🫶🏼

I have always wondered where James gets his socks…. Sock game always on point!

[@soulsports2988]

One of my favorite trails although I’m a far cry from James’ and your skill level

[@natehills9388]

So much fun. Not bad for a first go.
