 no no, as long as the helmet or goggles are touching you in some way, they're working apparently. he must also be wearing his gloves.. in his back pocket, and his shoes are on the wrong feet and untied lol I kid, I kid. but seriously... whats the point of wearing protection if its not even on right?

 the last part of his name is indeed correct^^^^^

 Some tasty whips but seriously leave the goggles in the bag. or maybe he just forget they were on there Smile

 If you're not in Jamaica it's not going to fit into an edit in the woods of Washington I'm sorry but it's the truth

 Redface sorry, didnt mean to come off like a jerk. I was simply revolted that the young man so carelessly wears (well.. doesn't wear) his protection. Redface

 Goggles get slopped-up quickly in the PacNW most times of the year. It's hard to keep them clean and clear for an extended period of time. Actually, it's impossible.

 @ saint4life, try telling that to the producers of most bike orientated feature length films? Follow Me etc etc

 Thank you Pininator! you speak the truth, finally someone understands why i look goofy with my goggles on my helmet
  • + 1
 @Pininator: very true, Pininator. Keep your goggles home on muddy days, or take out the ones that have been sitting in the attic for a few years.

 the price of the bike is giving the car a run for its money

 my first thoughts were, what a fucking dick, wearing his goggles on that helmet like that... then he pulled that no-hander and I thought, I have no right to tell this guy how to wear his goggles.

 Didn't this spot get logged, skye? It's been a minute since I was up there, but I remember hearing it was logged, and the builders built on a newer, better spot. Congrats on VOD, I think I saw this one awhile back, as well.

 I edited this on Pinnacle Studio 14 and shot with the Canon Vixia HF20. Use the fluorescent setting for outdoors and in thick forest like this.

 Its not the first time its been logged...
  • + 0
 Might not be the first time it's been logged, but unfortunately it will be the first time the meat of the trail (the top half) has been logged... Probably won't get rebuilt this time around. Nice vid Ben & Skye, should get VOD. What a great day to film! Love it when the woods glow.
