Descending From the Highest Point In Whistler Bike Park

I've heard tons of great things about Whistler's Top Of The World Trail, but with so much quality riding on the mountain is it worth the extra $$ and time? Today, I'm going to find out!!

And to my channel Partners:
MAXXIS TIRES - for keeping me confident in my traction with the best tires in the game

🚗MY TIRE SETUP🚗
Front tire: Maxxis DHF Exo
Rear tire: Maxxis Aggressor DD

p.s. I figure this is probably a common question, and I may even make a video about it, but no, you don't need a DH bike for Whistler. That being said, I enjoyed have one greatly as it helped allow me to push the boundaries of my capabilities more readily than I may have on my trail bike.

When you get the ticket for the top of the world. Be sure you get there before 4 pm. No one tells you this. Not even the guys at the top of the Garbo gondola. The peak chair shuts down at 4. No refund or anything, not complaining as it was completely my fault but hopefully it saves someone the headache as I know I was not the only one who has experienced this.

Man your voiceover work has gotten so good. Production values on this channel are ace dude, nice work.

“You see that lake over there?”

0:43 who are cooped up inside.
Coronavirus: *Maniacal laughter*

3:20 lets just appreciate the geometric cracks in the rocks

I went to Whistler for the first time this year too. Top of the World wasn't open, but it was still amazing. I went in with high expectations and was still blown away how good it is.

13:08 "I like like to thank everyone for still watching this video because its subscribers like you..."
Me: "uhhh... yeah totally..." *clicks subscribe*

Hey Sampler Claus can I have some lumps of stoke in my stocking this year?

Can we take a second to appreciate the guy (around 7:40) who stopped because he heard his buddy yell? I just think that that's amazing that instead of just moving on out of excitement he stopped and was concerned for his biking friend's safety, major respect for being a good person

"Share the Stoke" would make a killer shirt!

So glad you included things like the bridge, and showed the other parts of whistler that I personally had never seen before, my overall picture of whistler has now changed.
I hope to get there one day (all the way from Australia)
Before I'm to old 🥴
Btw, I'm stoked with this video dude 🤗

0:45 "couped up indoors" and if you listen closely, you can hear 2020 laughing faintly in the distance.

Your riding has progressed so much since I started watching you. It is evident in the vieo where you are manualling, and pumping everything on a DH bike. Keep the stoke high brother!

Shirt idea: I sense a disturbance in the Stoke

These videos are few and far between, but I can definitely tell why. The production value on this is so good! Awesome job Alex.

Now that winter is coming, come to Florida.

[andersun]

Truly and outstanding video showcasing an underexposed part of Whistler. 90% of the MTB crowd will never clear 10% of the stuff on A Line, but most can probably handle this and come away with an EPIC experience! Now we need a tropical bike park destination for the winter months!

I am declaring a SOS




My local trails suck no matter the weather :(

[bennnery]

I've only ever ski'd and shredded Whistler and Blackcomb mountains in the winter so was sweet to see it from a different perspective in the summer. Recognized some of the places on the way down!

Dude it was a pleasure to watch this and hear about your year-long thoughts! Even moreso awesome that I was lucky enough to get to ride with you briefly in Angwin & then Santa Cruz on our local California trails.. Seeing this is speaking to me to make the trip out here and give the whole Whistler experience a go! Just save up and make it real 🤘🏼 Thanks and hope to shred again! Anything we choose to do next in life can only add even more awesomness in our life-long adventure! Can't wait for what's next!
