 I was about to say ''Thank god Remy came back with good old hip-hop music''!! That's why I loved his old videos so much!!! lol

 Having ridden most of these trails and been super stoked just to consistently make tranny, this stuff is so impressive to watch. That pre-jump over the rock drop on a-line... dang.

 people have been paralyzed attempting the same....

 @eswebster: usual pre-hop is about 2m from the lip, Remy’s one is waaay bigger
  • 5 6
 @eswebster don't joke about that dude. I broker my neck and my back (in 3 places). Had one of my vertebrae pinned up. I'll be back on the bike, but others won't...

 @vesko: he’s not joking. People really have. Sorry about your injury man!

 more like "remy metailler sweeps up the bike park" with all those scrubs
  • 15 2
 In the era of hundreds of bike vids, I generally get quickly bored while watching someone throwing whips on machine dug trails... but 1:32 made it all worth it... Jizzus Christ!

 Remy stated in the past that he has a very hard problem with arm pump and carpal tunnel, unable to ride at race pace for more than a minute and a half.
This is a terrible issue and even with surgery, it can not get away on 100%. He probably still has that problem, which might be the reason he does not participate into any races.

 "You think you could go a little bit faster" Famous last words for anyone but him

 And it was a sweet burn on his haters who claim he speeds up his footage for PB clips. SUCKERS!!!!

 That green DVO looks really nice on that bike.

 His videos when he was on the Giant Glory were so much better.Not saying his newer videos are bad but they are nothing compared to his old videos.
  • 3 0
 I agree! His new edits are tops, but it's hard to beat those early ones!

 I remember when he was selling that old on Giant on IG. Decent price, and a day of riding with him at Whistler came with it.

 Having been to Whistler 2 years ago, it's just mind blowing how absolutely normal the left kicker on the jump at 1:37-1:42 looks on video. It's pretty huge in person, you hit it blind and are going Mach Chicken

 Ive had the pleasure of riding with, or should I say trying to keep up with, Remy a couple times.. No speeding up here, he really is that fast.

 How come riders doing whips like this haven't "rear wheel problems" as : Twisted wheel ?

Is the secret is : Always try to land front wheel first ?

...
  • 1 0
 Pull it back before you land. Besides, you'll lose your momentum if you don't. People do taco rims from landing severely sideways, but a well built wheel can handle the lateral forces from not quite getting it all the way back. Generally, if you rode it out, you weren't actually landing as far sideways as it felt.

 Somebody PAY this DUDE more money. His sponsors should be Whistler (100k), Bike company ($100k), and anybody else that want their product on the best park biker to ever ride!

 @Dmrbikes85211: admiration by DL Incognito. He is also an artist that was used quite a bit during the early 2000s for freestyle skiing.

 I'd like to see him and Vink in a dual edit on each others trails chasing each other on their respective lines... both so fast, so smooth.
  • 1 0
 If I had all those sponsors, I could do that. And that's why I would have all those sponsors. Da-gone, that boy doing thangs!

 Thanks Remy, I had the pleasure of watching this sideways due too your continual side ways action

 He was born sideways. I pity his mum. And this is what you get if you put wheels on a ballistic missile.

 I'd love to see him give racing on the pro level a go. He just seems so ridiculously fast, but maybe that reckless style might be what does him in? Who knows????
  • 2 1
 I recall reading something about him having a really big problem with arm pump making it impossible to put together the long runs needed for racing

 He was at MSA in 2015. But since he's not on the result sheet, he probably didn't qualify ...
  • 1 3
 i thougt the same thing an then asked myself if overjumping coners would get you disqualified? because you have to stay inbetween the tape...?

 He did MSA last year and didn't qualify

 @leopaul:
Ah, makes sense. I didn't know he'd ever given it a go.
  • 3 0
 @CF519: i checked a little deeper. he had the pace to qualify but crashed. he also went to Windham that year, but he isn't on the result sheet as well there. dunno if he even raced
