The Town With the Hardest Blue Trails in the World. 

Fun fact: I’ve never seen bcpov wheelie

Literally every trail in Canada looks so sick! Why don't I live there lol.

When it’s step on GoPro you know it’s super step in real life, lol.

I love super steep rollins. It's that feeling you get once you pass the line of no return. Once you're in it, noting else matters in the entire world except staying up right, feathering brakes at the right places, and plAnning your exit. I guess I love them because they were the first sick lines we rode as kids in the early mountain bike scene of late 80s early 90s. I sometimes can't believe I would drop in on some sketchy lines, no suspension, big 2.5 tires (gumwall of course), and center pull rim brakes that weren't worth the corroded, frayed cables. You would be lucky if they slowed you down just enough to make that s-turn exit. I've been lucky enough to grow up with mountain bikes. I've loved the progression of technology and the proliferation of new school trails being built. But my favorite thing has been introducing people to their own life long love of mountain bikes. I haven't done much with my life beyond enjoying it, but what I have done is introduce a lot of people to the sport. The best one was my wife. 10-15 years ago I got her a real mountain bike and instead of leaving her home on race day or trail days, I brought her along and now she rides DH with me and I don't have to worry she's gonna kill herself because I taught her a lot, and in turn more women are out on the trail theses days. There was a time when the only women I saw in a DH lift line was some chic holding her man's helmet while he adjusted his junk. Now there are just as many women in line at the local park than men.

The people are friendly the trails honor the North Shore legacy. Nelson rocks! Thanks for the sweet slab tour.

As someone who grew up riding in Rossland, this video makes me smile :) I always have been surprised with how easy riding is everywhere else i've ever ridden for the "difficulty ratings"

Great video, Nelson is on my list for sure now! I’ve flown through a few times but had no idea.

I rode Newtsack 15 years ago and it was no joke - everything I rode in Nelson was as serious as a heart attack.

That last slab on doz slabs is Seriously gnarly. Videos don't do it justice, Nice work!

I wouldn't normally comment on your videos, your awesome content means there is so much traffic. But this one has opened my eyes to Nelson. I've been to BC twice, visited all sorts, from Vancouver Island to Squamish and beyond to Sun Peaks and Silver Star. But never Nelson, so it is definitely on the list for my hopeful 2021 trip.

Love love love beautiful Nelson! Have never mtb’d there but have done many backcountry snowboard and ski trips and shredded all of Whitewater. Love the Slocan Valley also. My favorite places in the world❤️

I’ve been a fan for a while and whenever I go on a feature I always say, “YOUUP!”

Another fantastic video - thanks!

No way!!! Happy to see Nelson rides on my favourite account! I would love to get to ride with you guys while you’re here!!!

This was timely, thanks. I'll be in Nelson this weekend and really looking forward to time well spent with Honzo...and, my wife of course.

Yup, looks like I might spend a summer exploring the bike parks in BC. Your videos are great and gives me ideas on where to go ride.

Hey your videos are my favourite, keep up the good content.

This channel just gets better and better, I cant stop watching!!

Wow, what amazing trails! Great video too. Really got me stoked to ride!

I love going to Nelson. Great riding in that area.

Yah! I had the jibblies the whole time watching this. Good stuff!

Is anyone else laughing at the trail name Newt sac

Wow. What a beautiful town and trails.

My hometown! Grew up in Nelson riding with some of the craziest dudes. Lots of those trails revamped and added since back in the day. The old skinnies that were 15 feet high and up put hair on our chests!

Sick love to see you advenchering places like that

YAY I early love your vids because of you I tried mountain biking,I LOVED IT

I live near nelson in crescent valley. Nelson has my fav trails dude!!

Nelson is so great! I lived there for 10 months:) great skiing too

I lived in BC and I miss it everyday!! Now in Colorado witch is pretty awesome too.

Nice riding

we got a new mountain with new trails in Quebec if you ever come back down to Bromont. 30kms away is a mountain called Sutton Mountain and they just opened up for biking with 20 new trails and bike demos! just thought i would share this info with you! All the best!

Grew up on these trails! Think about Nelson often years later

I’ve traveled across the continent to go to Bald Face a few times. Looks like I need to make it back for summer in Nelson. ❤️

Just about to go to sleep. But a BCpov upload is my number one priority.

The reason they are blue is because the features are optional and you don’t have to do them

Nice Video! Some of the green trails on Vancouver Island are more like blues. Another place in BC with hard “easy” trails. But all the trails are so much fun!

Beautiful

Haha I was camping just across from Nelson north shore when you were. There’s so many epic trails!

stunning!!

I was born in nelson bc! Live in trail bc aswell love your videos man

Great Vid, that place looks unreal, would love to ride there one day.

Nelson and castlegar are some of the best rides. Love nelson great town great people great trails

I have been waiting for this lol

Next time you come to/near Nanaimo you should make a video on my home trail network, Dumont. They have raw tech trails along with machine cut trail. There are a couple of double black trails, one of which they just redid which is sick!

i feel your on the right track in it should be black when its blue. but this reminds when i first started to ride in 2004 and i would ride this mountain that opened up for chair lift access in bc for short time. tabor mountain ski hill. but they had some these style trails and they would blue and black parallel on the map going down the mountain side by side, the ride around would be consider blue when the sketchy or narly features being black

That looks awesome! I’m back here in Texas wondering how you two have little fear... no I see why!

Good video thanks 👍

Awesome love it

In Wisconsin you can pretty much go down any trail super fast without stopping because you don’t have to worry about features like slabs or overly tight or steep drops

I can't wait till those of us in the US can visit Canada. This looks amazing

My friend saw you in Nelson and I’m so jealous

another belting video , some proper gnar in them there woods

What a great video!

What a beautiful little town

Awsome video🤟✌😁

The Narley Nelson Blue Bangers!

Good video! 👏

Please come to the Alps for visiting the big french bikeparks

You should go to telluride Colorado

Is that morning mountain toward the end of the video? I recognise it because I was there, great mtn

I feel like a lot of the blue trails in Sedona, Arizona could be black as well. 😰😉

Nelson here I come!!

you should try 24 hours of great glen, its a 24 hour race (obv) and the course is about 9 miles long, it will be my first year next year and it has many features like a skinny bridge that shifts with your weight

I wish that there were more trails like this in Australia

i want to start mountain biking because of you thanks you

Are both the drops with 2 options on fat chance? Those features look so awesome 👏

You guys need to come out to the wheel mill in Pittsburgh

A little secret in Nelson (shhhh, don’t tell anyone) there is a SICK bike jump park located at 49.47846° N, 117.30034° W with jumps and features ranging from small to sends. Enjoy!

I love your videos

Great video

I love Nelson, my dad lives there

Should you grade a trail by its hardest (but skipable) features or by the easiest way you can ride the trail?

Impressive !!

if its OK with you, I'll pass on neilson....... if only I had the skills ! Loved the vid

Ahhh, good ol' Neldor.... Freeride lives in Nelson.

Alberta has some very good trails for hiking and biking

When I lived in Nelson I rode all these trails over and over...and guess what..I got very good!

I miss the “today of bcpov”

One word for this Sick

You guys should go to Vernon next maybe I will see you there if you do go

That is cool

Those rock slabs look so scary!

Yuka is sending it!

Thank you.

What is a good trail bike for a beginner? What would you recommend?

Great!

i live in a town called Ymir about twenty minutes from nelson

Can you come back to Ottawa Ontario I know we have no trails it would just be so cool to see you and yukah

I live there! It's a great place to bike.

I live right at mountain station and I recommend space junk if you want a bunch of left turns to death

Nice!

Yuka is getting better all the time

Ok to black diamond in Minneapolis it’s so fun

For the record this isn't what people mean when they say: Local Black (Diamond) = BC Blue

It is always a question when trying to rate the difficulty of a trail. Do you include all the optional features, or just the main trail? Judging from the video, taking the B-line around those features would be in-line with our Blue trails here. So does the trail get rated Blue for the main trail, or Black due to all the option features you can ride?

You should ride the Okanagan

Here in michigan lower peninsula that would be a quadruple black diamond xD

Dude’s voice really grows on you. Great narration.

Are you going to make it to Valemont on your road trip?

I laughed out loud a little when I saw the trailforks transition.
