That was really cool running into him seeing as I have been recently watching a bunch of his videos with my son. Super nice guy.

And that is one of the most insane trails I can think of... Really mind blowing experience

I hope to ride it in two weeks.

Unreal as in it doesn’t exist? Or insanely good? And if so, what makes it so insanely good? If it’s not real how did you ride it and how did you meet Phil? Does that mean Phil is not real? And are you? Is this a dream?

It is crazy how Phil can talk in complete sentences while going mach speeds (that first descent clip). His YT channel name is perfect - f'n dude rips.

It must have been a great trail as Phil seemed quiet for a lot of it. And for him to make a mistake from what looked to be just a pegged heart rate and pumping / carving berms for so long shows how much fun that trail must be.

Really cool you guys were in it. I don't watch a lot of his vids but the ones I see I enjoy. I only wish he had followed one of you guys down to better see the contours of that line!

ya talking while my HR is in the red is something I spent alot of time working on, its a great race tactic.

ya Phil's speed is crazy...just completely different level of fast and commitment. And ya, while I can talk while my HR is high...talking while sending the small jumps I can do would just be me whispering "oh shit oh shit oh shit" lol. Phil is like 30ft speaking in a calm voice, funny stuff.

Zac and I hit the top part of that downhill pretty hard, no stopping and it took a full 10 minutes. I think the KOM for the full downhill was 18 minutes which is crazy.

haha - I bet that is a great race tactic. Others in that red zone are like WTF is with this guy?!

10 minutes of non-stop downhill with pumping is a massive workout! Funny to hear Phil say that his upper body was worked as I'm sure he is in great "bike handling" shape especially coming from BC a couple weeks before.

That place is on my list - hopefully getting to Stowe VT this fall and wonder how I can get my wife to do a side trip 🤔
