These are my local trails and they’re so awesome! Shoutout to Evergreen and all the volunteers for building/maintaining these trails. We’ve got such a great community! 🤘🏽
Thanks for showing the impact and importance of these community supported trails. The jumping aspect is so inclusive of riders who are otherwise unable to progress. It is nearly impossible or at least improbably that a good rider can learn basic jumping skills without community support that allows progressive jump lines.
Next time you're in NC you should check out San-Lee Park. Builders there were able to add to the technical single track and make an awesome downhill flow progression with just 73 Ft. of elevation. It has green to black trails and it was all publicly funded!
Nice to see you on our local trails. Especially happy to see you on the more natural trails on Howdy Neighbor (trail 4) and lynx (mycelium). You went way faster then I ever have but you seem to have fun, so all good.
Nice vid. Got to come back in September and October when we start to get rain. People think its tacky and perfect here year round, but in the summer months it gets devilishly loose.
So wild living in New England and occasionally bumping into Phil while riding. After moving to Washington last year, apparently now I have a chance to bump into Phil while riding still haha.
Yeah, i have to say, I'm a huge sucker for the owl paccino trail and cool runnings. The jumps make a great place to progress and get comfortable with airtime
Nice video Phil! Awesome bonus sideview clip of one of the jumps with styling in the air. Also, you guys were lucky to get a really beautiful sunny day!
Sweet looking trails. I know what you mean about terrible lighting for GoPro footage despite looking like a beautiful sunny day! lol It's hard to film with such high contrast shadows and highlights. I feel like some of my best and easiest to watch footage has come from "gray" days.
i used to train for two hours every morning at a park called finn hill / St Eds, there was nothing to ride but parks in the winter. ever sense, i only ride back country trails. You might like ranger creek and suntop, devils gulch was good, you really get a deep woods feeling on the middle fork skykomish
16:21 Phil is a Disney Princess, confirmed! 😂 I've seen deer Near the trails, but never running the trails with me! This looks like a great set of trails!
@@SkillsWithPhil Through the video, I was thinking how wild that was, can only imagine in your shoes! That is something I'd be telling people all the time! Closest encounter I had, I was shooting archery, and a deer came walking about 15ft behind me as I was pulling the arrows out of the target!
pro line is so much bigger in person you hitting them without knowing the speed made me nervous lol. i feel like i’d have to get towed in if i ever tried them
Hey Phil I know you probably won’t see this but if you ever go to Colorado you should go to Trestle bike park in winter park it’s made by the same people who created whistler and you would love it
I was riding Grand Ridge in Issaquah, WA and there was a mother and baby deer standing in the trail. The baby laid down flat and the mother ran away, but just cut the switchback so she was in my way again when I came around the next turn.
I love talking to people but I can get pretty overwhelmed in large crowds, so I usually don't broadcast my whereabouts. I like running into people serendipitously on the trail.
@@SkillsWithPhil I totally get that ! Maybe next time or sometime we will cross paths or trails lol …..Pilchuck tree farm is a fun place ….Pilchuck tract side blue and black Squamish style trails
Hey Phill amazing video! I love about a hour from Port Gamble. If you go a hour south of there to Gig harbor there is a place called 360 trails. You should check it out they are really fun!
pls post a duthie vid. Also if ur in town for a bit i reccomend tiger mtn and raging river and if you ask some locals nicely exit 27 is pretty awesome!
It’s the sound of the oil flowing through the rebound circuit in his fork. Not uncommon but definitely more common on fox stuff than rockshox. Some forks are just louder than others.
@SkillsWithPhil man you didn't hit the good stuff! On your way to whistler which ill be at for crankworkx Thursday to Sunday you got do galbraith and chuckanut you not seen anything
i know a very good mountain bike park in western colorado. i think you would enjoy it. it has a proline where you have to sign your life away but i wont speak any more pls check it out. Also love the content
