Video: Gnarly GoPro Lines in the Wet with Remy Metailler

Dec 24, 2020
by Rémy Métailler  


A few super fun lines even more challenging in the wet!

I ride those lines very often, but I normally don't when the conditions are not ideal. In order to keep progressing, I wanted to push myself and take the bike for a spin on theses lines even when the ground is slippery.

Thanks to the builders!

 No ordinary rider hits that line at 1:04. There's a reason they call it the Remy line.

 Doing lines like that first thing in the morning will open your eyes too.

 Was that last line a trail? Or was that just Remy doing Remy things?

 When Remy is progressing himself, he is actually progressing what is possible on a mountainbike.

 You’ve been spending too much time on the trials moto, if you think that creek was a line.

 hey @remymetailler, i have a suggestion for your camera setup. Please use higher iso, stabilization is very bad in your settings.

 the very end this is why I don't run water bottles on my bike. lol. I have probably single handedly left 40 water bottles in the woods and gone thirsty. fuck that.

 Pretty much all of those lines are "Remy lines". Why? No one else would live to tell the tale. Those drops are insane

 This guy is one of the immortals. Most riders couldn’t even look at those lines and say “I could ride that” let alone find an even harder way down it.

 I wish he had included someone filming him on the creek line- the squealing of the brakes tells you it was hairy AF.

 @remymetailler the craziest part of this, it is the last line in the creek, because how much you hate getting wet, hahaha.
