Heat. Heat. Yes. Yes. YouTube, welcome back to another video. We’re here at Dirt Farm in Wales on the lookout for some big jumps. I haven’t been here for years and years, but we’re here today with a mill because he wants to try and conquer the full motor line and so do I. I’ve always been pretty rubbish at jumps. So today we’re going to try and conquer that fear, get a little bit better at jumps, and have a sick day riding some flow trails. I can’t wait. Looking forward to it. Haven’t been here for a long time. Conditions are prime. The sun’s out. Let’s get it. Here we go. Made it up at the top. Used to love riding that track. I think it’s called Tidy Darts or it was. But it’s been a long time since I’ve been up here. I’m actually well stoked for a bit of ultimate flow. This place is like a BMX track on steroids. So, here we go. First run of the day. Always start on the blues. I reckon it’s going to be absolutely crime today. A little bit of rain, but this place never goes a miss. Oh, nice cruisy blue to warm up with a you actually forget how well built the jumps are here. So good. It’s like a big big big pump track but for mountain bikes a first run bikes feeling prime as well following Mr. a mill. A leg burner. A leg burner. So, see, if you’re not very good at riding BMS like me, this is definitely the place to come. Oh, I don’t feel like I’ve ridden this bit before. Wa! Went way too deep on that jump there. Ah, this is real good. It’s so fast. Wow. I’ve gone the wrong way. Take it out. I’m lacking. What a first run. That’s mint that is. Before we come to go to the full moto, we’ve decided to have a roll through tidy darts. But it’s very windy up at the top. Seems to be super super windy. Oh. Oh, I’ve lost all my speed. And on motor on Zimodto, these are some of the nicest jumps I’ve ever ridden. So cruisy. It’s pretty windy though today, which scares me a little bit. Oh my god, it’s so fast. So, so fast. This is where we’ll be heading down soon. Full moto, which goes over that burm and then down into there. I haven’t done those jumps for a long time. So, I’m looking forward to it. To be fair, it’s always nice to scare yourself. And I’m not the best at jumping anyway. So, it’ll be good to make myself nervous again. Get some adrenaline going. Oh la. You could do so many runs here. [Applause] It’s too good. Your legs get so pumped up. It’s like a huge pump track. Right then. I think it could be fine. We’ve done a couple of flow laps now. Two. Three. He runs. I believe Males wants to hit these whole moto jumps pretty swiftly before we get too tired. So, I think I’ve got to look at some courage, try and get rid of the fear of jumps and give them a go. I’ve done them before, but years and years ago, and there’s a few extra jumps, I believe, than what there was last time that I did it. So, I’m looking forward to it. Nervous, excited, but should be good. I’m going to have to judge the speed except for myself. I think last time it was just don’t break, go as fast as you can. So, I’m going to take that concept again and hopefully we’ll be all good. But we’re going to go up now and have a look through them, I think, cuz I haven’t actually had a look at them. I don’t know what they look like. So, yeah, going to go up have a look, see what the full moto line is actually all about. Here we go. Full moto. I’ve just been over the first one. over the BM. As you can see, they just get progressively bigger as you go down. The gap in itself isn’t actually huge, but these jumps are super fast. Then we’ve got I mean, the camera will do it zero justice, but they are quite a big takeoff and you go pretty high in the air and then you’ve got the the big step up after that. But again, I can’t really remember what they’re like to be honest. But I suppose there is only one way to find out, and that’s give them a go. So, I’m going to head back up and have a roll through. I think give them a go. Last time, I think the speed was just go as quick as you can and don’t break. So, we’ll see. We’ll see how that concept works out again. But I am actually nervous. Right. Come on. Let’s see how far we can get. Woo! First few I squashed through that one then I was a bit nervous. Right then that was scary. Right, let’s go again. The first three I think you’ve got to squash and then this one here you’ve got to pop quite a bit I think cuz I came up a bit short then I was going pretty quick. So we’ll give it another go. Right. Come on, Louis. Let’s see if we can get the full way through. It’s windy. Whoa. [Music] Wow. Yeah, there we go. Full moto, top to bottom. Wow, that’s got the adrenaline pumping. I definitely need a drink and something to eat after that. Oh, stoked. Let’s go back to the van cuz Emil will be just as stoked cuz I heard him get through as well. I could hear him whooping when he got to the bottom. So, let’s go and see him. Here he is, the main man. The full motor. The full motor guy. That was me and you. That was me. Yeah, that is true. We just got just got lucky with the weather. Yeah, it’s getting it is getting windier now to be fair. Yeah, but it doesn’t matter as video proof. We have been I’ve done it through the full moto. All right, bumper. Go for it. One bang. Yeah, one bang it. Bumpa bumpa. Not been down this one before to be fair. seem seems quite tight and twisty and techy little little jumps. Oh my god. Are you all right? Off he goes. He’s been crashing now. He’s having his elbow cleaned out. That’s That’s some face he’s got going on there. Oh, he’s had a little He’s had a little boo boo. He does the full moto. Does the full moto and then crashes on a tiny little jump. There we go. He’s back on the antiseptic wipes again. Uhoh. No good. No good. Right. Unfortunately, as you seen, Emil had a huge, so I’m going to crack on and try get through the full moto again. But the wind has picked up an awful lot. So, we’ll see if I can make it through. This bit is so fast. Woo! Woo! [Music] The air time on that one is huge. [Music] There we go. Pretty sure Ben was standing taking pictures. So, I’m going to head back up. But there we go. The weather then was actually perfect. The wind seemed to have stopped just in time for me to come through. I think that could conclude my Black Mountain session. I’m absolutely shattered. Lots of pushing up, lots and lots of runs through full moto. And we just got the sickest drone footage I think I’ve ever actually had. It was mint. Hats off to Ben. He absolutely killed it on the drone. We’ve had two casualties. Emils is feeling sorry for himself, but he managed to get through full motor. That’s what we came here for. We both managed to get through. So, I think he’s going home very, very happy. It’s been emotional, windy, sunny, but all in all, it’s been an incredible, incredible day. So, I will be back. I will be back. Most definitely. Thoroughly enjoying myself. This place is literally like a BMX track on steroids, on dirt, and I’ve thoroughly enjoyed it. So, as always, if you enjoyed it, don’t forget to drop the video a like, consider subscribing, and I will see you in the next one.
