Jackson Goldstone could not believe this! #mountainbiking #remymetailler #gopro

This is insane! It's like a World Cup game! That was sick! Like it's smiling! What's up everybody? Welcome back to the channel. For today's video, I'm going to show you that Enduro racing is definitely not dead. So Squamish Enduro just happened and I filmed some clips on stage 5. That was phenomenal. The level of riding is incredible. The crowd was epic. Squamish Enduro has done a really cool job and that got me stoked for riding. So after watching some clips of the race, I'll take my bike and we'll go shred stage 5. Let's go! Yeah, buddy! Yeah, let's go! You good? Yeah, I'm going to keep going. Take it easy, it gets pretty gnarly down there. Oh, your chain's off, your chain's off. Richie! I don't really know what to do. Yeah, we'll do it for you, no worries. Yeah, Noah! Nice job, there you go! Go, go, go! You got it, go, go, go! Yeah, boy! Yeah, buddy! It's just getting started. It's probably the sound that's making the house so far. This is insane! It's like a World Cup, dude! I'd like to see what you could do on your Dunhill bike, Jackson, on that section. Yeah, it'd be fun. I mean, this is gnarly. Like, this is... I wouldn't see this on a World Cup ever. So, this is... Yeah, this is crazy. It's cool to see. That was sick! Like, it's gnarly! Let me introduce you to the sponsor of this video, Transparent Labs. So, Transparent Labs is a company that makes supplements, and as a professional mountain biker, I spend long days out in the forest, riding, filming, and sometimes it can be challenging to get the right instruments for my body, and Transparent Labs basically makes it easier. This is, for example, the grass-fed whey protein that I've been using every morning in my smoothie. I just put a scoop. This is a milk chocolate. I usually do banana, almond milk, dates, cacao powder, and peanut butter, and to me, it really tastes amazing. It's easy to drink. A few other things. This is a prebiotic powder that I have every day before my coffee. I've got the peach mango flavor, which really tastes really, really good. And this is one of their electrolyte formula. Just a little powder that you mix with your water and that you drink directly when you are out there biking, skiing, running, whatever you enjoy to do. And, yeah, it's easy to use. I've been really enjoying using all their products, really. They've got also some vitamins, magnesium, and some more specific stuff if you are really into the gym and you want some creatine, some pre-workout. So, they've got really everything. You can read all the ingredients on the back of the product and everything has been tested. They use a third-party company to make sure that everything is as efficient as possible. And if you want to check out the product, simply use the link down below and use the code REMY. That will get you 10% at checkout. Now, let's go back to our video. Okay, everyone. Now, it's my turn to ride. Watching the enduro race on Sunday was a blast. The level was absolutely crazy. Everybody racing was really pushing it. You had top riders like Richie Rude, Jesse Melamed, many more really fighting for the win. And that was really cool to see. Chatting with everyone, it sounds like stage 5, which is this one behind me, was an absolute blast. So, here I am. I also want to ride it. And I'm going to take you with me on two laps. First lap, I'm going to ride slow, really study the terrain, and analyze the different lines. Make a game plan, then we'll head back to the top and I'll do a nice, fast, smooth run. And hopefully I can piece it all together. I have fun on the bike. You have fun watching it. Let's go. Okay, training lap. So, here's where the start was. A couple of pedals. Open the corner. And first line choice. You could actually cut straight. Or run the outside line. I'm going to choose the outside line because I believe that sets me up better for the next section. So, I'll be riding here. You can actually go right there and straight line. Okay, so this is pretty straightforward. A bit of pedaling. And then another line choice. If you set up too much inside, you get a couple of compressions. And then it is shorter. But you might actually lose time because the terrain doesn't allow you to pump. And also then, that might get you a bit too straight for the next section. So, most likely we'll come here in the middle. Push. Come right there. And then, the key section where all the crowd was. Original line. Makes you do a corner. Slow down a lot. And... You don't have much time in that compression. So, the risk is that if you go too fast, you compress the bike. You're not able to regain control. And you take off weird. So, most of the top riders were riding straight here. So, I think to me, it's a pretty good plan. There's a rock. Myself, I'd like to go just on the rock or on the right-hand side of it. If you go on the left, there's quite a compression and that forces you to make a corner of the drop. So, I think where my bike is right now is pretty good. Okay, so here's my line. Obviously, when you're racing and it's blind, it's really hard to remember. But, I'll try to remember that the line of my bike right there really align with the rest of the feature. So, here the crowd was really cheering. You can see it got really deep and there is a bit of a kick on the rock. So, if you go there, most likely your rear wheel is going to lift. So, the line is definitely right there. It's definitely smoother. The drop is smaller. You got more time to regain control. And that allows you to open your corner so then you can cut back on the inside. So, here's another key point. You can actually jump, which is what I've done in the preview with Matt Bolton. The problem when you jump there, you have to really control your speed, which is difficult because you are coming so fast. And then when you land, you know, your heart rate is already super high. There's all the adrenaline from the feature behind. I feel like you could make a lot of mistakes and lose time for the flat section that's after. So, I think it would be a pretty smart idea to actually use that super nice berm to slow down, come here, and actually make the corner. So, I'll probably try that. Yeah, I believe that was there. So, up the rock slab. Yeah, I believe this line was closed. Okay, so you come here and then, as you can see, it's really steep. Obviously, if you go too fast, you're going to get kicked OTB. On that type of feature where it's like nearly vertical, I find it absolutely crucial to stay proactive on the bike. I'm going to come in. I'm actually going to do my braking right there where it's like perfect. I'm going to compress the bike and I'm going to help the bike to jump. That way, I anticipate and instead of getting pushed towards the front, I anticipate and get my bike in position straight onto the rock slab, so then I can go faster and more controlled. Okay, here I'll open my line as much as I can. Slow down, corner. Nice corners. You have to duck for that tree. I'm going to pretty straight line this. Definitely inside. Wow. Okay. It's actually quite slippery because it was super dusty for the race, but then it rained, but it doesn't rain enough to really get the ground perfectly saturated. Hey, how are you? Good. Okay. And that's it. The finish line is right there. That's a super fun stage. I think that's definitely what Enduro needs. Stages that are really accessible for the public to come and watch, that are exciting for the riders, easy to film, and here you've got a show. Squamish Enduro has definitely done that, so now let's go ride it. Okay. I got one try. I'm not going to go race speed. I'm by myself. I'm not racing. I'm just going to do a fun lap, smooth, non-stop. Okay, here we go. Thank you. That was pretty smooth. I knew these people were hiking up, so I was definitely a bit worried. Took my foot for safety. Could have cut that corner. I hope you enjoyed my run. I hope I wasn't too rusty, but that was really fun. I tried not to pedal too much because I had the e-bike, obviously, but this was fun. My heart rate is high, even though I have the e-bike. Moving the bike around on a downhill takes actually a lot of strength, so, yeah. Thanks, everyone, for watching that video. I hope you enjoyed it. That run I did at the end of the day was a really fun one, but I didn't want to push it as I know that this is a really popular zone for hikers and dog walkers. Now, I'd like to give a big shout-out to the Squamish Enduro for the epic race they put together. Next year, I'll probably do some more specific content about this event as I had a blast following it and riding the stages.
