IMPOSSIBLE CLIMB!!! First To The Top Wins $1,000 - King of the Hill 2022
Vložit
- čas přidán 20. 06. 2024
- After a two year hiatus, the impossibly steep, King of the Hill hill climb has returned to the small town of Brightwater, New Zealand! And I was there with my trusty KTM Killer (electric start Yamaha YZ250 2 stroke) to meet it head on, and try and improve upon my performance from the last time, when I wasn't quite able to get the speed necessary to clear the giant road gap jump half way up...
More than 50 riders attempted to climb the hill, and they were each given three go's throughout the day... But did any make it up? This video tells the whole story in all it's epic, engine screaming, bike flipping glory! I hope you enjoy it.

It feels so wrong that this is free content. The level of effort put into this video is on par with a network television show. You definitely earned my subscription Ash, I look forward to seeing more from you!
Lol guy’s getting payed !!! Are you that blind to the world?
Do you pay to not have commercials? Or do you watch commercials? Ether way, that's CZcams AND the content creator making money off you... if you are above the age of 15 and don't know this, you should be castrated so you can't clutter this world with Idiocracy.
Free content? Had to watch 2 ads before the video started. So much to "free"
@@Seawolfaka Right? I hate people who act like you don`t earn money from CZcams. There are CZcamsrs that earn millions of dollarsa and not per year but every month. Look at Mr Beast, that guy earns more than some tv stations. But yeah a youtuber who gets paid from CZcams ads, maybe even has some sponsors in the video and a patreon link in the description and some idiot comes and is like "Oh wow bless your soul for giving us free content from the kindess of your heart"
Awesome video! Really well done. Makes me want to come down for it next year.
👀
the event organizers, especially those two guys up on that hill, deserve so much thanks. events like this are what make life fun.
Got to be honest. This looks fun. Best bit was you taking time to give some recognition to the men at the top of the hill. That’s a class act.
I was today years old when i found this content and i feel like ive been missing out.
looovvveee THE VIDS PLEASEEEEE MAKE ANOTHER 1000$ CHALLENGE
Awesome that you featured the two blokes on top of the hill. Those guys are absolute mad lads.
Dude, you got an awesome docco style goin on here ay. Watched this after the EU vs US vid and I'm in for it ay. Top job Bob.
absolutely loved this one Ash, I've always loved dirt bikes, but never really been competitive about it, im starting to get an itch now though.
Super cool to see what you guys get up to on the other side of the planet, thanks for this video!!!!! Little tip here on your starts, take a page from the fast guys note book and bring your engine speed way up when you launch, you are starting at a huge disadvantage causing you to bog.
finally the vid we have all been waiting for. love the vids ash keep the great work up
Awesome content mate. Hanging out for more.
What a Great video. Well done
Fantastic Video, much enjoyed. I wish there was more fun events like this
Hill climbing is a blast,enjoyed watching you all trying to get up that hill. I had a RM370 that I loved to climb with. The power band loved to flip you tho. Look forward to the next vid.
In true Kiwi style the event ends with a feed. Only in New Zealand! Awesome video mate!
Finally, been waiting for this vid
This is just simply put, amazing content. You Kiwi's really do it up! Thank you for this!
Good stuff Ash, mean video mate
Been waiting ages for this
EPIC as always 👍 Cheers Guys
24:45 the moment I heard the Battlefield 3 music roll in, I just knew what was about to happen.Total.Domination
yay
Men, how can you put in so much effort in making these videos and only have 130k views...? This is a million view video... You deserve so much more man, keep it real
It's been a hot minute for this one. Always a good day when you drop content. Love the channel mate
Brilliant and well put together professional video........credit to all the team involved.
Loved watching this ✌🏻
Awesome suspenseful storytelling of the race.
This guy can tell a story! Why do I care about a hill climb in New Zealand? I still don’t know but I watched the entire thing! This is great stuff.
I've got 0 knowledge of dirtbikeracing, but I love it when someone with a passion and good filmmaking skills comes around to let me peek into their community. Really wish I could be a part of this. Smashed the sub button.
Awesome!
Your a good rider and an excellent story teller and narrator. That's a win ol son.
cracking vid mate!
Bro that was an awesome vid , here I am sitting in a sling and laughing at your yarns !!!! Keep it up 👍
Great edit mate!!
I like your work. I really enjoy it. Thanks
Well done!
Cheers mate, was a bloody good day! Been waiting for the gopro footage of my son's big crash (he's the one that jumped the road up and back down).... Cheers!!
Mate love the video! I don't usually watch hill climb but that was really entertaining and engaging to watch cheers
You really do a great job editing these videos!
great stuff
ta✌🇬🇧
I laughed out loud when you tricked us with the farm bike final and not the final final, haha. Well played! Great editing and fun commentary!
Hell yeah im going riding tomorrow know thanks bro for G- ing me up haven't been out for about a year now 😂
Fun video. I liked the narration.
Masterpiece! ❤
I just love the way You make pauses to say stuff like : " They opened floodgates", the countdown for the arm. You just have something in the voice or is it the New Zealand accent. Great work, keep it up.🙃
This was produced well. Greetings from across the pond !
Nice one Mr ❤️
Love the vids!!!
10:06 HUG! This man just crashed and needs a hug right NOW! xD
Why am I just finding out about your channel?! This is amazing!
could you maybe make a raw long video with all the good footage?
Masterpiece Presentation
Awesome video and what a cool event
Brilliant.
Yessir
What advice would you give to someone getting into filming. Your is amazing. I ran a go pro last year and hated how it looked. Id like to film my journey this year, new bike, new year and new class
we need stuff like this in the northisland
Hey Ash will there be a 2023 hill climb? this was a great vid and I hope you do more
I love how this is just a bunch of people riding up one single hill and it looks fckn awesome! Late comer to this channel, but wow, amazing storytelling.
great event and video.
Love your work bro ,, i miss riding mx ,its getting harder to ride anyplace these days
I bet you can make a documentary about dog farts and still make it watchable. Well done
I race MX - that looks like a brilliant day out. Your videos are next level man. LOVE IT - i subscribe to very few
great vid! question tho, what mods are you allowed to do? if you freed up your suspension some and changes sprockets you could kill the hill bud.
Yes it's here
Epic again mate! We need to get together. My buddy is back in Dunedin right now. Wish you guys were closer together
sick vid mate...
5:38, 12:16, and 19:47 were the most intense races by far
Hey mate, love the content. What is the GoPro ban?
My old man was NZ Hillclimb champion once or twice back in the 60's. His ribbons all got old and fell apart but I have some of his trophies somewhere.
*EPIC*
Like that BF song💪👍
We used to ride hills like this in Cal. You were balls out almost all the way up or you never made it. Towards the end if some of the climbs it would get steep so you found a happy medium to keep front end just off the dirt. So much fun miss those hills.
Cool video lots of effort put into it, you should make another video using the other footage and include all the classes.
I love that CZcams pushed your other video in my recommendations. I don't care about motocross, I really don't. But man do you produce some high quality stuff
cuzzy rory is here too night ash sowman. in the comments brah. idk cuzzy rory is going too been building motocross track at my place etc. if your keen asf too come ride it too with your freinds or mates etc.
Whaddup cousin Rory 👊
Lmao he snuck in the battlefield theme towards the end there
That looks as much a family fun event with the Motocross almost second place ... almost ... 😜Thanks ...
New sub respect from 🇬🇧 👊💯
Well you definitely said that correctly.. you had some awesome stuff coming up alright man!
I’d love to see billy bolt do this
Defo be good to see how @billy bolt would go in this event.!!!
So let me ask you this what are the classes is at 2:50 two-stroke against 250 4-stroke? Or is it basically -a 125-2stroke against a 5002-stroke. ( The size difference or I should say performance difference between a 250 3 stroke and a 450 2 stroke just no comparison)
On ya Ash
Are there any rules against using a trials bike or running softer springs in the fork?
i feel like i'm watching Brett....and i keep waiting for Germain to show up.
Should try the wr250f as well
I like the comment " They opened the Flood Gates" Lmao Thumbs up just for that..
Mo powa babe. You need some cbr 1000 enigine or more like h2r
14:28 Mel Gibson is that youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
Alright that bf music hit hard on that run
Underpowered mate!
Big bore 2 stroke is the way to go. 96, 97, 98 CR500. Keep it in the pipe until it bucks you
Please upload load 2023. This was awesome.
Whatever gear you start in has to be a low enough ratio that you are not bogging the engine. Change sprockets or go down a gear, but your engine should never be falling on its face like that off dirt.
i love 2 strokes but 4 stroke is the way to go for hill climbs
Man, can you adjust your rear rebound? Thing was like a pogo stick.
why go in third? just rev the absolute hell out of it in second. maybe im wrong though
What happen with 2 stroke build?? 😢
Bailey’s bike was much more crisp and sharp than yours. Throw that smart carb in the garbage bin and hang a factory keihin back on. Sweet video! 👍🏽
When u shoulder goes it gets easier every time use to go 2 3 times every rygby game and on the mountains when u bin it
