I Just Sold My Dream House :( 

He will be able to buy entire mountain

@@bontrager1 *state

Never been in that area but you nickname alone is worth a like! ;) Hope you have a great day!

Where can I find those videos???? I’m obsessed with this house!!

What do you all dont like to talk about if I may ask?

@@Hilla085 Taxes, crime, politics, traffic, homelessness, corruption, tagging, overcrowding (3 families in one house and NO parking), lack of quality of life and core values, just to name a few. I'm in 3sm south of Disneyland. Been here all my life and it is rapidly getting worse. (well, you asked) And TN why?

@@ManNomad you forgot no water

@@appacana My city actually uses an underground aquifer managed by the city. It is pretty hard water but never stops flowing. Orange county is basically one huge shallow river. Prado dam, Irvine lake, and the Santa Ana river are the visible remains above ground.

The area between Huntsville, Chattanooga, Knoxville, and Asheville has some of, if not the best mountain biking in the country.

not really, aaron was still way above everyone, not alot has changed for the rest.

@RedDragon yeah the man is an animal

I often wonder if it was worth it for YT. They were a relatively unproven brand and Aaron put them on the #1 spot again and again and showed YTs could go as fast as any bike. They obviously paid Aaron a tonne of money and since then they don't sponsor too many athletes. Got to hope a lot of people went out and bought a Capra or a Jeffsy at least partly because of Aaron!

Well you didn’t state your reasons for moving. Let me guess - it’s for political reasons?

@@gregoryvierra6114 No one here is interested in why I’m moving but I’m sure many would like to know why AG is.

Its cuts his work commute to Europe nearly in half. Weather conditions on the east coast more in line with World Cup reality - potentially good for training? He likes playing the guitar and its kinda the birthplace of rock'n'roll... There are countless reasons to move, details decide where to.

Windrock.

No income tax in Tennesse and cost of living in cheaper. That could be two reasons why he’s moving.

Welcome to my 2014 Sprinter van...

No this is what making mountain bikes at £500-£1500 results in.

@@awesomeoberks Maybe when he was with Trek or Spec, but you are many $ off with what YT, Intense, and Yeti sells. You can't buy a Yeti for less than $6K.

Yup, totally get that too. As much as I would’ve liked to see the finished house, it’s a private home afterall.

My thoughts too. Would have loved to have seen that custom exhaust from Japan he was talking about.

@@TheOriginalee LOL, yeah there were quite a few things he might have turned his attention to. 😂

Nothing to do with 'how bad' CA is getting. I feel like people who've never lived on the west coast love to have opinions on what it's like. The US DH mountain bike scene is just super strong on the east coast right now. There's good reason to want to surround yourself with the east coast DH community if you're interested in continuing your career.

@@downhillupside Perhaps. Gwin seems pretty coy about his reasons for moving - at least I haven't seen him comment on it much. But, it's important to note that Gwin literally just finished a custom-built piece of property that cost a fortune, and which he was stoked about (with good reason), and which he stated he planned to live there his whole life and raise a family. Under normal circumstances, you don't just uproot and leave that almost immediately after you're done with the build and the relative comparisons between the east and west coast DH scenes wouldn't ordinarily be good enough reason to do so. I could be wrong, but, based on this, combined with other little hints I've picked up on about Gwin over the years, I suspect he's in the "CA Exodus" crowd.

He’s definitely part of the exodus crowd. We also just sold our place and are escaping CA. It has become increasingly bad in every aspect (aside from the climate) just in the past few years alone. It’s like the politicians want you to leave. They’re making it so no one can afford or would want to live here. Just wait until the “leave CA” tax is implemented. They’ve been trying to pass that for years.

@@LanceLaspina Sounds like that will just incentivize people to leave before the "leave CA" tax is implemented. It's a real shame b/c, while there are certainly things you can't control, much of it looks to be a bit of a self-own like you suggest. In any case, best of luck with your move!

@@LanceLaspina I'm not sure that affordability is a major worry for Gwin at this point.

Curious, what’s so bad about California? From the UK so totally not aware.

@@GKVideography well it’s the highest tax rate in the whole union. Most expensive place to live in the union, gas prices are the highest. The politician’s are running it into the ground and the people here don’t see it. I am working on getting out in a couple years due to personal reasons. It’s a great place to live other then the political climate and taxes. It’s border line communist if you want my honest opinion. But hey come check it out for yourself.

@@heyguyoffroad Guess you don't understand what communist actually means, smh. If California were its own country it would have the 5th largest economy in the world. It's far from perfect and has a lot of problems but also drives the American economy.
