    The best lesson I learned from Phil was that if you don't like a section, just gap it.

      That’s how I used to ski moguls. Find the one spot that’s long enough to make a GS arc, launch over a bunch of moguls into the next spot, and keep going. I hated making all those little turns. I learned it from skiing with Tommy Moe.

    Thanks for the invite, that was a really good time and I was stoked to be a part of it. I'm so glad Lucas walked away from that crash, that could have ended much worse! 😶
    Also, Yoann is the man! Don't let this video fool you, he would destroy me in a real enduro race where the stages are 10-15minutes long and not 15 seconds.

      @David Landrigan, the first time he did Crabapple Hits, he was on a short-travel trail bike in a blind run. His Evil The Calling had 135mm rear and I think at most a 150mm fork when he hit the jumps. On top of that he was wearing a half lid and didn't do any test run, he just needed a tow in. That tow-in guy was on a Giant Glory DH bike with full gear and even then Phil's last jump was higher than his.

    Not surprised at all by Phil holding his own. You don't place top 10 in the DH Nationals in the Pro division without being an insanely good rider. Seeing him out there next to some top level EWS riders just goes to show that what he's doing on his channel is very high level, and not something you're going to see on other CZcams channels. I LOVED seeing all of them watch each other, and laugh like that. FULL SEND!
