Doesn't look like much bother til the bit where he gets stuck. I'd want to see that up close though, looks tricky

No.
10/10 for tenacity to that chap.

I think i'd get hooked up where he does.

Hell no! On my xc bike I might get about 3 boulders less than he does, fully armoured and big-biked up I would still get stuck where he does.

No.
but i think hes going about it the wrong way (didnt watch it to the end to find out if he cleans it)
he knows he can do the top half, surely start lower down and work out the second half, then link it up.
Also, what is sectioning?
is it anything like sessioning?

Yes, I think so. It would probably take me a few goes though.
Posted 9 months ago # -
just get up on the left rock and ride over it, piss easy that
Posted 9 months ago # -
yeah i think that's plenty do-able. he's definitely having a bit of a mind-**** with that tight gap though, needs a bit more speed and commitment to roll through it.
where is it btw? looks familiar, but also not familiar! if you don't want to post the location on here, could you email it to me please? mrcarlpeachey@hotmail.com

Posted 9 months ago # -
yes but would be going at a slower pace and using a more trials hopy hop motion i guese hard on a full sus would still take me a few goes tho
anyone no of anything like this around bristol as id like a dabble
Posted 9 months ago # -
Like rp16v I would be going at a slower pace and hopping - from left foot to right and back whilst carrying the bike.

Thinking round Mother Cap/Burbage?
Posted 9 months ago # -
No chance me riding that sight unseen, couldn't happen.
If I had 100 goes at it like our kid in the vid then yes.

CA's descent would be cutlery aided of course
Posted 9 months ago # -
Yeah no worries.
Needs more speed/ commitment and to look where he wants to go rather than at his front wheel. Try riding up the face of the big rock on the left, where he keeps getting stuckPosted 9 months ago # -

Agree peachos----once you get that bit of "trail baggage" on your shoulders it's tough to shake. I have a spot on a favorite trail that looks sort of like that narrow space--it's only about 15 feet long--cleaned it the first try and not in the ensuing couple of hundred tries. Just a moment of hesitation and you are totally screwed
Posted 9 months ago # -
i am sure that trail is actually called 'Cynic-Al Alley'.
he is the only man who can clear it. I saw it.
ken.

Hard to tell, we can't see what's after the piece where he keeps getting stuck. I could certainly get as far as he does.
To be honest, I'd just get bored with trying it that many times and go balls out on the last attempt, hope I clean it.
Posted 9 months ago # -
dunno, but i'd give it a go.
Posted 9 months ago # -
that location looks really familiar...
surely riding over one of the big rocks rather than getting stuck in the gap. easy to say from behind a keyboard though
Posted 9 months ago # -
it looks easy, he is taking the wrong approach line in IMO though
Posted 9 months ago # -
Depends what's causing him to get stuck. Is the front wheel hooking up? If so then my rad skills could sort that out pronto mamma.

Looks like hes making a meal of it
Posted 9 months ago # -
Looks like orange fives suck at rock gardens?

He needs to get himself on a bike skills course
Posted 9 months ago # -
why does he insist on taking that horrendous angle into it ? there is a much much nicer line to enter that tech section hes far far too sharp at it
Posted 9 months ago # -
i dont see why he doesnt ride up the large sloping rock to the left and drop to the right... looks pretty rideable to me...
