We tried snow bikes and absolutely loved it | Redemption CA Ep. 13

A perfect bluebird day + a couple of snow trikes + a couple of clueless riders = some of the most fun we've ever had. We only had to take about 4 bunny slope runs before we headed to the top of the mountain and laughed the whole way down.

[@daverichardson6334]

I found it impossible not to lean with you on the snow-trike

[@bkxc]

Haha nice!

[@AMANkumar-eh1oe]

Brian your videos have one serious issue that is THEY ARE VERY ADDICTIVE! !!!!😏😌😌👍👍📱

[@bkxc]

Hahah thanks

[@andreww5773]

Just as all the grumpy old skiers grudgingly accept the hooligan snowboarders... the snow bike bros show up... Good tiiimes.

oh man, how am i supposed to proceed with my day now that i know this is a thing?!? (as i start to look up airline tickets)

[@bkxc]

DO ITTTT

[@alexcunningham9224]

Yeah started immediately looking up ski resorts that rent these things as soon as I saw this! Lol

[@stefanamg63]

I never knew these things existed. They combine my 2 favourite sports, skiing and mountain biking.

[@lawnmowingstaircase223]

iwant to ski bike, but i dont know how to do either

[@travistyus5813]

Sierra at Tahoe!!! Yessss. I started snowboarding there in 2000 as a young teenager. Then I started working there in 2008 as a lift operator for 8 seasons untill 2016. I rode snowbikes there all the time. They are so fun. April 12, 2019 I broke my right knee snowboarding in the Alley hitting jumps. I'm going to turn my old full suspension MTB into a snowbike. It will be a lot better on my knee then standing on a board. Thanks for all of your great content. Travis T

[@markonikolic1386]

Brian you need to go skiing with alex for the next redemption CA!

[@pwgreene]

I love Sierra at Tahoe. Another fantastic Redemption CA video!

[@paulkiehlmeier3679]

You guys look like you had more fun than anybody else out there! Seeing you both build confidence and speed was definitely entertaining.

[@snopen]

I’ve been riding SnoGos for 4 seasons now. They’re so dang fun. Cant believe I didn’t see this video when it came out. So glad to see you guys enjoying them. Keep riding and start getting in the air!

[@JDVaron]

How easy would you say it is on the first time?

[@maz_mtb3266]

Been waiting for this, looks like a blast!!!!

[@philgunn6803]

That was an ace video Brian looked like you both had so much fun and could really see your progression as well.

[@just6979]

The skis on the pavement was so cringy!

[@ToogyHowser]

Awesome! I’ll have to see about trying these out next winter!!

[@Trailz6of7]

LADS!FREAKIN AWESOME. I was looking forward to this one. Keep em coming....😜🤪

[@wills1110]

Those are super awesome, thats the best bike skiing video ive ever seen. I want to get one now. And i am super stoked about seeing exchequer. Im going to go on sunday

[@zachmtb370]

Every time you went side to side, I leaned with it ;)

[@ThunderStruckMTB]

Man, this one made me laugh all the way through it!

[@blainewinters8492]

The faces of people when they see you guys on the snow trikes are absolutely hilarious. Redemption CA keeps getting better and better!

[@KDog2264]

That looked like so much fun, and what a fun video to watch. My only complaint if I had one is I wish it was longer, I didn’t want the video to end, so time to rewatch it. Good job guys and thank you so much.

[@stuartpilling6190]

Looks like a lot of fun guys! Awesome! 🏂⛷

[@DannyHealy1989]

I laughed my ass off watching this, in a stoked kind of way but also at the sounds you made. The sound of pure fun!

[@killingaurapvp3178]

I went to the ski bike demo at Sierra a few weeks back and didn’t have the greatest experience. The guys there were more focused on riding themselves than informing a newcomer. They only let me go down Easy Rider twice and that was it. I’ll continue skiing but when the day of no skiing anymore comes, I’ll move over to rest my knees.

[@rossyrocks5952]

literally just seeing the skis on the pavement made me cry

[@felix-ve8jk]

Lol seriously

[@maxnewman1]

Rossy Rocks why

[@Spack005]

Max Newman because it tears up the bases and destroys the edges. That little sound of them on the pavement sent shivers down my spine.

[@Kiko-yq2cs]

@@Spack005 it’s not that bad cmon, watch this: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hHnVqJaHhphrmKM

[@rwogmtb-ridingwitholdguy]

More fun than I could have imagined.

[@murraysmtbadventures2622]

I bought one of these this year. Sooo much fun! Awesome video! Subbed!

[@FatGuyBiking]

These look amazing this is skiing I could get into and looks like it's absolutely insane. This looks so fun though .

[@GeetarAdam]

Ha! Great fun! Solid safety advice, too. I've had far more gnarly wipeouts in snow sports than mtb. Couple concussions, at least, but it's so much fun! That said, I live a thousand miles from any snow, and the first time I saw ya'll ripping some flow trails, skiing/snowboarding was actually what it made me think of...far more than the little I knew of road cycling, anyhow.

[@JayDubster]

This looks sooo much fun guys!!

[@jontg429]

That snow pack looks awesome!

[@jeremymcbride8729]

Sick, fully sick lads 🤙🏻

[@fromxctoletssee]

OMG those look like so much fun!!!! everything that a bike should not do you have to do on this. Slide everywhere!!! lol. thanks for the adventure!!

[@breakandrun70]

Wow! Those son trikes looked like they were a blast, very mild learning curve and then hammer down. I would definitely try them. Fun to watch, great video. Stay safe & be extra careful.

[@bikedude2001]

That looked like heaps of fun ⛷🚵🏼‍♂️👍👏👏😝

[@paytonmeredith119]

I wish I could have watched them hit those jumps on the bunny slopes!

[@smellraw]

I'm getting stoked just watching this

[@bkxc]

It's pretty fun!

[@B19D91]

DUDE... You guys were haulinnnnn!

[@willbros1499]

Haha...LOVE it at the 7:50 mark when Alex ate it, and you had that split second moment of..."I bet I can miss him....but reality hit, and it was.... "NOPE THE RISK OF T-BONING HIM IS TOO GREAT....BAIL!!!! " I loved hearing the "little kid joy" in both of your voices. That looked like an ABSOLUTE blast, and I honestly had no idea that ski bikes even existed, much less how fun that looks. I could get behind a ski trip now, to do that! AWESOME VIDEO!!!

[@MartinJutras]

That looks SO cool!

[@greybatm4]

Now that looks soooo much fun!!!

[@condyshares]

Awesome video! I bought a skibike at the start of this winter & Whistler Blackcomb just started allowing them up again last week! I brought it up and streamed the whole day and it went great, very similar to your experience!

[@andyp6169]

That looks so much fun!

[@bubby372]

Great fun and nice gear too!

[@richardyoung4645]

That looks insane!!

[@marcosharvey1427]

That! Is! Epic!

[@kanehardt5333]

Looks awesome

[@ccallure]

Dude! So badass!

[@ajsaracina8380]

That looks insane!

[@spencerhmoore2716]

Nice video! I love the stoke combined with respect for others and a nod to safety. Looks like fun for sure! I'd like to give it a try myself.

[@jacobbohl5315]

You could definitely tell the snow was softening up as the day went on. Looks awesome!

[@TrailPOV]

Less snow biking....more ice biking. But it does look like a blast!

[@perryirons1399]

Great snow bike promo!

[@evanmattson2903]

I just rode a snogo Saturday and loved it!

[@samday6621]

I’m like you guys, in that I’ve skied and snowboarded, but want to try a snow bike. So good to see how you went. I think I’ll opt for snow bike than snow trike, for more carve and leaning into turns. I notice it seems harder to catch an edge, which you do easily on ski or board. Nice, thanks! 👍🏼

[@dawnbranaman6419]

Looks like a good time was had by all!

[@willbennett7107]

These things look incredible fun

[@OutNAbout415]

You guys Killin it in Tahoe!!!! You guys were breaking necks with those snow bikes!!!!

[@mountaintime4276]

Looked super fun!!

[@Vaporizerwizard]

Gotta love it when something can make you giggle like a kid again. Everyone looks at you guys like you're aliens coming down the mountain.

[@streetpigeonmtb]

I'd love to give this a go!

[@huntstyle]

That does look really fun!

[@outbackwack368]

I've NEVER downhill skied but that looks like a BLAST! Sounds like frozen granular by the sounds of the edges digging in. Thanks!

[@simbomtb3495]

the kids are back !! haha love it guys !

[@SNOGO]

Awesome video BKXC! Thanks for the feedback, and we're glad you had a good time! Let's get you back on a couple of bikes this year!

[@mtnbikon391]

Being a skier and a mountainbiker i'm super tempted to try this.

[@chystassia2170]

video makes me super jealous i want to go skiing now especially with those mountains and that view

[@bgrods6]

Those look like an absolute blast! Inspired me to get one

[@callmelawrence9546]

I want one of these, looks so fun🤙

[@lanceshallenberger7563]

That looks like so much fun, I want to see you guys take them on some jumps!

[@miguelt.7997]

Man, I had the same experience with my Sno Go, couldn't stop giggling! miss those pre COVID days!

[@buildtestflyrepeat9428]

If your in Tahoe again, come to Carson city ash canyon trails. There’s some pretty nice flow trails there

[@streddaz]

Awesome, those snow trikes look so much fun! We don't get all that much snow here in Tasmania so I've never bothered skiing due to the time to learn compared to the short snow season, but with these trikes, I can see myself giving something like this a red hot go.

[@BikeLifewithRob]

Looks fun

[@RyanMarcyesOutdoors]

So Rad, Going to have to buy one and store it at the SoCal House!!!🤘🏽👍🏽🤙🏽

[@rhpmountaintrail9206]

Those things actually look pretty cool you are having way too much fun much fun.

[@MPHshoots]

This is so damn rad!!

[@whiplash231]

This soo needs to be a thing. looked hella fun!!!

[@bradyluz5641]

It is a thing. Surprise

[@marshallcorona792]

I demo’d one of these, when I dug the handlebars further towards the ground I was able to get nice carves in. These were so addicting... just pricy.

[@LiftOperator52]

Marshall Corona How do you think they might be for someone like myself; very good snowboarder who now has balance issues from medical stuff. I ride a recumbent trike. These look like they could potentially get me back on the slopes. Maybe.

[@Nicholas-qd4lw]

That looks so fun, especially where you’re going into a turn and you just drift through it. I’m a pretty good skier and I don’t think there’s a way to drift like you can on a snow bike. This is something I will have to try, but for the east coast where I live, good snow is hard to come by.

[@jackwillard3879]

Those look so fun

[@troyhall1274]

That was freaking ridiculous !!! Thanks guys now I have to buy another toy 😎🤘

[@zadhi1290]

You guys have to go when it has good snow. Mt. Rose can get icy very quick. Loved the experience

[@jamescole5395]

Sick 🤘

[@vince4501]

Brian those bikes look like so much fun. They would be a blast to use up here in Canada

[@jkzambo]

Great vid guys!!! Here in Nor Cal you can ride your sleigh on land and on the snow on the same day.

[@loganmccallum3724]

So good!!! Tahoe is so good. Great helmets btw. Not saying that because of any personal bias either...(only Giro full face fits my big clunky head right, and Bern helmets are just plain rad).

[@killingaurapvp3178]

You have to do this again! Skiing is different because there is a certain skill level you get to and then you just have to send it... I’m at a point when I’m getting bored of blues and slowly working my fear on double blacks. Also, Sierra-at-Tahoe’s blacks are equivalent to other resorts’ harder blues. Get em in da trees!

[@fantastic9346]

ggok

[@slate613]

So this is what happens when a mtn bike, a snowboard, and a pair of ski's have way too much to drink at a party, but everything works out later! :D

[@ajroutdoors1408]

Oh cool I need one!

[@jakemtb674]

This is fun!!

[@LiftedAdventures]

This looks uber fun. Couldnt use them much here in florida though. ha. Man your laugh and stoke make me so happy. Awesome redemption video. This one was great.

[@bkxc]

Thanks dude!!

[@orion1two]

That snow is super icey!

[@daltonking9782]

This is my home resort, I go almost every weekend throughout the season! I wish I got to see you guys up there you guys are ballsy for trying out some sno-bikes!
