Mountain biking. Is there a "best" way to get to the bottom of the hill? Or, should we all just ride how we want..?

Wonton Soup yeeeeesss

@xenoph9380 7 лет назад

That end scene is a neat summary of the two styles :D

@wodstalker2819 7 лет назад

Freeride is basically a more badass downhill, with tricks on the bike instead of pure speed

@dialgia111 7 лет назад

No.

@wodstalker2819 7 лет назад

Really awesome debate, thanks man.

@spencermurray4378 7 лет назад

WoD STALKER idk he has a really good point dude😂

@zyoungson 7 лет назад

WoD STALKER freeriding is about 12 inch travel and hucks to flat .

@wodstalker2819 7 лет назад

Yeah very strong arguments :D

@jordidiego2149 7 лет назад

Love both, but personally prefer freeride. Who doesn't like redbull rampage? Although both are incredible, freestyle crashes look more dangerous than dh.

@dylanporter2550 7 лет назад

Ofcourse it is dependant on speed near me on a track called mega mission a dude came off his bike on the second section and is now paralysed

@smellslikeblackberries5355 7 лет назад

Dylan porter permanently?

@iancatto1041 7 лет назад

Don't get me wrong boys, I love the addition of Blake to the GMBN crew. He definitely fills the freestyle/freeride gap that the channel had, and he's certainly a ripper! I just feel that XC is a bit underrepresented on the channel, and maybe that should have been a priority when choosing a new presenter, given that (and I may be generalizing because I don't know any facts of this topic) more people are involved with XC than most other MTB disciplines because of it's relative cost and availability to the public. I love every corner of cycling, so I am always hyped on watching gravity videos from you guys! I just hope you guys can work to represent XC a bit more in the future to help us racers out. Cheers boys, thanks for the great videos!

@gmbn 7 лет назад

Thanks for the comment Ian and it is something we are definitely trying to address. We aim to have a good spread of all the different types of MTB represented. We love the feedback, Neil

@rockford016 7 лет назад

Good point Ian! Cheers to you and XC riders! :)

@sickedits824 7 лет назад

@77rockcity 7 лет назад

Thanks for the vid! Big fan, your friendships, energy and, love of riding always shines through. I appreciate your hard work. 👏👏✌

@YourNickIsTaken 7 лет назад

Freeride is the AND1 and Downhill is the NBA. I cannot decide which one is better. Freeride is pure entertainment and it looks more dangerous and bad ass. Downhill is a sport of numbers and it's all about the timing and being nimble. I love ride in the mountains because the nature is amazing. For me is more a recreation or stress reduction than a race. This video was true entertainment! Thanks!

@lukesaunders4232 7 лет назад

Definitely one of the best videos from you guys. And DOWNHILL!!!

@Daniel-gx4nb 7 лет назад

That video was top. Really looking forward to rebuilding the old downhill bike I picked up a while back

@ashleylewis6388 7 лет назад

more RAW!! I loved the one about a year ago with Marc, Neil and scotty. the scotty section in this vid was awesome!!

@finn_7306 7 лет назад

this is a good shout out for the dirt shed show.

@thecyanidewatergun8638 7 лет назад

ive wanted a vid like dis for a while

@alexrobb5539 7 лет назад

you'd think the racer would have the carbon bike and the freerider would have the aluminium

@maxxe_chouin7186 6 лет назад

I like the jump at the end

@TechERni 7 лет назад

You guys should make a comparison between a DH Hardtail MTB and a DH MTB.

@mpalacios99 7 лет назад

TechERni There are no serious dh hardtails because they arent good enough

@supergut1164 7 лет назад

i wouldnt bet on that

@mpalacios99 7 лет назад

Gammel Schinken How many hardtails dh bikes have u seen on the uci dh wc, I'll answr that , none.

@TechERni 7 лет назад

They look so awesome, big 200m double crown fork 26" wheels and a super agressive frame. But are there any new ones like in 2016?

@supergut1164 7 лет назад

maybe they arnt good anaugh to win the uci cup, but fast anough to be the fastest in your local bikepark

@josephread6658 7 лет назад

Best video yet guys! Well done 🔥

@henrydanger546 6 лет назад

Great video loved the cinematics

@NiccoloHamlin 7 лет назад

Favorite video. The editing is amaze

@jojoaspi7398 7 лет назад

Which begs the question, what's the difference between the suspension setups for both bikes? ;)

@kaiul2967 6 лет назад

Jojo Aspi free riders tend to have stiffer suspension setups to help transfer more energy with the jumps.

@rolux4853 4 года назад

I don’t get why they used a double crown fork on their freerider. Even big mountain freeride is way more fun with a single crown fork. They are more than capable nowadays. Well maybe the only thing that would be even greater than these Fox Forks, would be a new version of the mighty Rock Shox Totem.

@annalongfield 7 лет назад

Blake is awesome ! I like his free and easy style. But he doesn't bet Martyn happiness and enjoyment for all things bike.

@asispector 7 лет назад

yooooy more downhill freeride videos and more in details into the sport, it's the true mountain biking discipline since u can't ride it without a mountain...oh and best adrenaline...looks like u gained more subs just from this video cheers gmbn

@E.T_rode_bikes_As_well 7 лет назад

With his arms crossed like that...Scotty looked like a new power ranger :D

@jamespachebat6707 7 лет назад

@nickrogers6441 7 лет назад

This is the best video so far that doesn't have Martyn in it.

@ezlorenzo 7 лет назад

@BrunoZub 7 лет назад

Wow, that was a awesome video indeed!

@dimensionsofearth 7 лет назад

Dh if you like the speed without so much airtime, freeride for all those who need that extra kick of adrenaline. Really enjoyed the tunes on this and the whole vid was great

@jett7525 7 лет назад

This was such a freakin sick video!🤘

@CMOOREtbay 7 лет назад

That was a really good video guys. Blake jumping Scott at the end was hilarious! Can not compare the two both are awesome styles of riding... but racing does not look as fun but it does look way scarry

@jaysealenduro5618 7 лет назад

very epic nice enduro vs downhill next

@Ben-cb5ki 7 лет назад

What is free ride you didn't explain it in the video

@Johnroberts2013 7 лет назад

Bruh

@ThePainterAL 7 лет назад

Freeride is riding with tricks and it's all about style. Downhill is just riding fastest as you can.

@ninejets 7 лет назад

Its in the name you tit.

@VvvnimaL 7 лет назад

freeride AKA do whatever you want, no rules

@ahitler5592 7 лет назад

Downhill is more bad ass. Pro downhillers like me do scrubs instead of whips. Free riders can't stand rock gardens.

@danjohnstone1709 7 лет назад

Awesome video gmbn. 👍🏼

@KingLeoXV 7 лет назад

that last jump was so forseeable. still laughed

@Cameronwlee 7 лет назад

Freeride or Downhill? What ever turns you on! I say freeride, unless you are racing. Don't worry, just Freeride! Brilliant display at the end by Blake! Sums it up nicely :-D Bigup
