 Great video. it really captures what diversity whistler has. You can litteraly ride every part in this video in only 2 runs (minus the one clip of the dwane johnson rock drop). great edit.

 I've been in Whistler for 6 days, still 4 to go. This place is wicked. Too bad the video only shows lower mtn flow tracks. Whistler isn't all that, there's quite a few technical tracks, some easy, some super skecthy.. But all so much fun!

 Is the first guy riding a small?

 Nah its a medium

 Thought the same thing! Rad riding, but that Glory looks like a BMX under that dude.
  • 2 1
 Being 6ft+ and riding a medium will do that..... haha

 Great job..ya just add some more rock rides...some wood ala 'fade to black', a skinny, plus some off the top and you'd have it all.

 That loooks sick, really cool shots, but how in the world did you guys manage to get any shots in whistler when nobody else was coming down the runs close behind or ahead? Haha and off topic, but thats a pretty cool logo for the little tom forbes media delio

 There was a bit of waiting around for traffic to go past. Wasn't too bad.

 If you feel on the harder tech trails like joyride p. you'd see like 1 person on that trial if you rode it all day. The tech runs are almost empty

 New line on Funshine Rolly drops for me to try and find. Great edit. Going to try and spot Phil McLean in the line-up now that I know he likes red bikes.

 Awesome filming, great riding and crap music
  • 1 1
 yeah, the clip was great and the riding was solid, but the soundtrack choice was questionable. Music is subjective but I wasn't a fan.
  • 8 0
 Thats fair enough. For me finding music for an edit is one of the hardest things, especially finding something original that hasn't been used alot before. I felt this suited the pace and feel of the video so i went with it and accept that not everyone will be a fan.

 Cool vid TomForbes! The music suited the mood of the video I thought. Then again I'm happy & stoked to ride Smile

 Sick edit! Got me pumped for riding whistler next week at SGC. I Wouldve never thought to put Walk the moon to a bike edit but it fits perfectly!
  • 1 1
 yeah the riding was way better than the music... that is often the case on this site in my opinion
