James and I head out for a day of slabs in Squamish, BC! We ride Value Added, Penthouse and In and Out Burger all of which are in the Alice Lake area.
The slab trails in Squamish are truly unique and cannot be found anywhere else in the world. It's almost like a Northern Moab, but with granite and trees.

10:25 | "I hear people down there...shall we assume they rode down there?" Then you guys drop into absolute gnar. Love it! 🤘

+Horns High Mountain Biking gotta convince yourself it's okay sometimes!

@SGMTB 6 лет назад

Amazing trails! Those of us in BC are so lucky to have the ability to make videos showcasing these fantastic trails!

@BCpov 6 лет назад

+SG - MTB 🤘

@AdventureDorks 6 лет назад

Awesome! I'm in Squamish riding all week and using your videos to plan my rides. Cheers, Greg

@BCpov 6 лет назад

Nice, the slab trails are so special! Have fun out there!

@norquay626 6 лет назад

I love those trails. Still doing them on my XC (haven't upgraded yet), so sometimes a little slower than I'd love to ride, but amazing riding in the area. Again, great camera work and high quality videos. I'm really glad to see that you're talking/commenting more than over the summer. It starting to make your videos really fun and interesting to watch

@BCpov 6 лет назад

+Norquay glad you're, enjoying them. The commentary definitely helps i think. Sometimes it's hard to remember to do so!

@norquay626 6 лет назад

Lol, just remember, Claudio never has to climb a hill, just go down. I'd think he'd be able to talk a little easier than those of us that go out and climb 300,400, 1000 metres before enjoying the downhill

@joejoemtb8011 6 лет назад

I have to stop watching your videos or I will succumb to the dreaded disease of trail envy. Great video!

@BCpov 6 лет назад

Sounds like a great disease! Gets you out there!

@michaelconklin8499 6 лет назад

That was some really good control down those. Having ridden this exact route a couple weeks ago, I know these are harder than they look! I quickly realized I should of put new brake pads on as I barely had any stopping power. If you see scattered moss in the middle of In and Out burger that was my crash pad haha.

@BCpov 6 лет назад

+Michael Conklin nice! I don't think that Moss provides much protection for the rock underneath

@Guineson 6 лет назад

Awesome riding, would love to have stuff like that around me to ride!

@BCpov 6 лет назад

+Guineson sometimes you gotta travel a bit! Roadtrip!

@TrevorMay 6 лет назад

Both myself and Jonathan rode the slab at 10:30 from the top high entrance, it's steeper but was still able to control speed.

@BCpov 6 лет назад

+Trevor May I'll give that a try next time. What the best way to access that other than walking up?

@TrevorMay 6 лет назад

The top/full entrance is off of 'Dirk's Diggler'. The whole rock slab line is called 'Bearly Adequate'.

@rudyt9072 6 лет назад

Keep up the good work!

@BCpov 6 лет назад

+Rudy Steep Decents good to hear from someone who likes steep decents! Or is it descents?

@motardabordo 6 лет назад

Beautiful spot

+Luís Silva 🤘

@Blooben 6 лет назад

1) How tall are you? 2) What size Slash do you ride? 3) Please can we have a bike check on the Slash? 4) Please can we have a bike check on James' bike? 5) Keep making sick videos Thanks from Northern England :)

@BCpov 6 лет назад

+TheOrangutank I'm 5 11 or 180 cm and ride the large (19.5). I'll definitely do a bike check! Also I'm sure James would be down for that as well

@michael.finally 6 лет назад

It looked good on camera :)

@raivkka4313 6 лет назад

You don't really get how steep it is looking down but when looking back up the trail, WHOA...

@BCpov 6 лет назад

+Raivkka Xi the shots back up definetly help give an idea!

@DemonPrecProd 6 лет назад

I have seen that line all the way too the right , it's pretty much a 2 story vertical face that nutter's ride LOL

@BCpov 6 лет назад

+DemonPrecProd I'll have a look then!

@piw213 6 лет назад

When did you go? This past Thursday? Trails were running soooo great in Squampton. Also, you didn't show how you cleaned the climb up to Value Added :P

@BCpov 6 лет назад

+piw213 this was sometime in September, though i can't remember. Check out my Strava for details

@jonthemountainbikingviking4127 6 лет назад

Slabs don't look super steep on the video but your tire sliding says it's steep. In n Out Burger in Canada? I had no idea. :D

@BCpov 6 лет назад

Most of the slabs are just steep enough to give you a scare, but you can still control your speed on them.

@todduncyclist7974 6 лет назад

ha ha I actually said "oh my gosh please don't die mate!" involuntarily while watching this. also how do you say "coming in hot" in French - venir à chaud?

@BCpov 6 лет назад

+Todd Uncyclist haha! All under control!

@todduncyclist7974 6 лет назад

what kind of seat/saddle is that you have? the one with holes in it.

@Smowling 6 лет назад

Love your stuff, here is a comment! Are you still in Japan, how is/was it?

@BCpov 6 лет назад

+Smowling yup still in Japan! Really enjoying it! Hit up a few great riding areas and a few not so great ones. I'll be here till the end of November.

@hobmarg 6 лет назад

Is Penthouse the trail with the crazy option line that has a rock drop into a slab?

@BCpov 6 лет назад

+hobmarg hrmmm. I'm not sure. I can think of one spot on the trail that might have that option.

@paytonkuz2217 6 лет назад

Nice vid, and colour grade. What are your gopro settings?

@BCpov 6 лет назад

+WNDRLST I'm basically using Jordan boost Masters settings. He's got a great video on his channel explaining gopro settings.

@paytonkuz2217 6 лет назад

cool thx

@kadenmonfredi6611 6 лет назад

How do you get your footage to look so good?

@BCpov 6 лет назад

+Kaden Monfredi a big part of it is the grading i do in post

@kadenmonfredi6611 6 лет назад

BCpov nice I can’t imagine how good your footage would look if you had a hero 6!

@SGMTB 6 лет назад

The issue with the Hero 6 and Hero 5 is the audio. I'm almost certain he's using a Hero 4.

@BCpov 6 лет назад

Yes I'm using a hero 4. The form factor with the 5 and 6 don't work well with the gimbal either. Audio was bad on the 5 maybe they fixed it in the 6? The dynamic range of the 6 is interesting. Also the 4k at 60 fps.. but I'm not sure if you can do that in super view.

@kadenmonfredi6611 6 лет назад

BCpov yes that makes sense because I was also very impressed with the audio, and I was aware about the bad audio with the hero 5. But great vids man I really enjoy them!
