Finding Longevity: Keeping the Dream Alive with Kyle Jameson - Video

 I'm Kyle J and i love this shit

 At summer gravity camps many many years ago Kyle J was the best instructor to have. So down to earth, extremely approachable, funny, he was really good at just making you feel at ease, at a time when it's a bit nerve-wracking to keep up with the fastest guys in your group. He never made anyone feel embarrassed, while simultaneously making sure the fastest guys weren't bored and were having fun. I dunno how he did it, just always the best days with him or Kyle Norbraten. Going up the chairlift he told me stories of how growing up mountain biking wasn't necessarily the easiest thing for his parents to accept, they wanted him to join the family business. Said a lot that resonated with me but also motivated me. It was just a whole different depth of relationship, truly like riding with a friend instead of a coach. Taught me how to whip when I asked, and a few days later when I had him again as a coach he actually remembered that I had asked and would whoop when I did shitty tiny whips on crank it up, which literally motivated the shit out of me. I did not expect this guy to remember or really care at that level, I mean realistically pros can kind of be distant or formal (not a bad thing) and with so many campers realistically you can't remember all of them every day, but he made a point to tell me the whips were coming good. Massive respects to this dude.

 I saw Kyle J eating outside of the Corralitos Meat Market last year as I was driving by. I was so surprised to see him I just stopped in the middle of the road and stared. He must of thought I was a little off, but was cool enough to say hi and ask how it was going.

 Already so many good bloke comments, but still wanted to say that you're an inspiration to my 30 year old self. Keep doing you mate!

 Respect. Great video. I enjoyed the commentary just as much as the riding. Hope to cross paths someday! :-)

 Yes! You guys at freehub always have the best content that actually makes a connection to rider/viewers. And I don't think Kyle could get any more laid back, might be reaching critically chill levels.

 Right on Kyle! Down to earth, stoked and friendly! It was great meeting you when you came into my work and I hope the rehab is going well and see ya on the trails!

 That exact coastal crew video is what started my love for mountain biking! I've loved biking ever since.
