I've heard tons of great things about Whistler's Top Of The World Trail, but with so much quality riding on the mountain is it worth the extra $$ and time? Today, I'm going to find out!!
🙌MASSIVE thanks to MY PATRONS that make this all possible 🙌 bit.ly/2wQnsUL

p.s. I figure this is probably a common question, and I may even make a video about it, but no, you don't need a DH bike for Whistler. That being said, I enjoyed have one greatly as it helped allow me to push the boundaries of my capabilities more readily than I may have on my trail bike.

When you get the ticket for the top of the world. Be sure you get there before 4 pm. No one tells you this. Not even the guys at the top of the Garbo gondola. The peak chair shuts down at 4. No refund or anything, not complaining as it was completely my fault but hopefully it saves someone the headache as I know I was not the only one who has experienced this.

@gabenoseworthy3793 4 года назад

I just re-watched the van build playlist and I think the only couple things of the van build needs is new seat covers, you can take the seats to a upholstery shop and they can remove the seat covers that are on there now and restitch ones out of whatever Material you want with any kind of cool designs on it, they can even so your channel name or model on to the headrest and maybe a cool wrap for the outside of the van

@tuckera1879 4 года назад

Why? That would just make it a target for vandalism and even pushy fans who want to meet the sampler. If he has a wrap the van may also be more recognized, and he wouldn't be able to camp at as many places because it could be mistaken as a camper, which is the exact opposite of what he wants to do.
