Video: Finn Iles Hits Full Speed Through Sticky Berms & Slippery Roots in the Latest 'Sound of Speed'

 It is an inFINNitely satisfying sound.

 @kcy4130: takes away all my Iles

 @kcy4130: it’s like you can here him coming from Iles away

 But does it work for pIles?

 @kcy4130: definnly.

 Yeah after watching this thought I brake way too much

 underrated comment

 Has he got a 150mm fork on there?

 It was actually shot in Columbia mate !.....the british part

 @barbarosza: touche

 I recently looked up this british rain phenomenon, specifically the annual precipitation and compared it to Squamish and the North Shore. Dedicated all of 5 minutes to that research but from my findings the coastal BC gets about 2-3x as much precipitation than say Scotland. Mostly during the winter months' 50+mm/day rains so that it can be bone dry in the summer..
I'm curious how it really compares.

 Vancouver island. Canada's rainforest

 @MrDuck: it doesn't fall in the north of the UK, it's just always there, hanging in the air without actually hitting the bottom of the pluviometer, undocumented and unloved.

 @deepstrut: not much forest left, Canada's Rainy Clear Cut more like it

 @deepstrut: Fake News and the riding is flat, go to Saskatchewan that's where real riders ride.

 @knarf1: yup Van Isle sucks, don't come. The winter riding is way better in Sask

 @deepstrut: Canada has a few rainforests... just saying

 "Trend"? Or maybe it's preference. I've spent countless days riding in rainy/muddy conditions..often on purpose because it's fun, and I've never thought as I was riding "I need to get some glasses". They need to be wiped constantly...while riding at high speed they can affect vision to the point you have to stop. Maybe I've just gotten lucky riding over 25yrs and never had an issue and wished I had glasses on.

 @GlassGuy: Your name is a bit ironic

 Takes a half second to get a bit of mud/dirt out of your eye, but takes 15 sec. plus a stop to clear off goggles/glasses.
Personally I only use goggles for when its dry and dusty.

 A good front mudguard usually does the job through the winter.

 @LS3VER33: as someone who lives the goggles life i am always waiting for my friends to get dirt out of their eyes. Plus when you are cooking on a cold day you start to cry without goggles

 I used to do this, but got so tired of picking dirt from my eyes and feeling like I've got sand in there for hours afterward! Now I wear safety glasses and just deal with the fogging up (best to not even stop).

 As a carpenter I have perfected the "safety squint" and it transfers well to wet riding... I'm sure Fin has the "safety squint" down to a tee.

 It's the new Single Pivot one

 Single pivot, you can see the rear brake caliper between the chainstay and the seat stay which matches with the regular stumpjumper but the Evo has it above the seat stay

 Closing shots in parking lot clearly show flex-stays w/ no rear pivot, it's the new 130mm bike.

 i only know Prevost..am i missing out or all these shots in duncan were there?

 @audric: Tzouhalem and Benson

 @audric: looks like Tzouhalem, prevost, nanaimo, etc.

 @audric: tzouhalem is the best .

 Does anyone know what trails he’s riding?

 @audric: So much amazing riding on VI. This looks like it was split between Mt Tzouhalem in Duncan and Mt Benson in Nanaimo. Tzouhalem, Prevost and Maple Mountain are the main riding areas around Duncan; Mt Benson, Doumont and Extension/The Abyss are the main areas around Nanaimo. So many other fantastic trail networks up and down the Island too, and that's not including all the secret spots...

 @Daledoback:
on Tzou it looks like Double D, and maybe Loam line?
on South Benson: Kid Gorgeous, Sexy Flanders, Hutz, Max Power, and Roller Coaster

 @DHsender4life: yep i recognized this tabletop !

 @bikelust: Benson eh! >>on my check list

 @PartridgeSkillz: Muchas gracias!!!!

 @deepstrut: awesome, thanks!
