- In this video, My new custom painted Giant glory has arrived so built it then throw it the bike bag and flew 12 hours down to South Africa for darkfest no better place to test a bike,
started off by riding the step up and the rockets before heading to the top to do my first Top to Bottom run.
Massive thank you to @slowshredmtb for coming do to film the bike build.

Respect to Giant for showing Tom the love he's earned 🙏
Last year he brought a 2nd hand bike to Darkfest, right? A Giant.
This year, running a custom bike. Dude deserves it.
Last year's free promo got him a huge sponsor super hype
From 300£ Ebay frame to a custom paint. Well deserved tom 💪🏼
This video made me smile like a fool. First custom frame ever. Earned. Every drop of that was earned. Legend. Well done lad.
love how he said just doing a run in then sends the whole course! 🤘🤘🤘
No messing. Straight in ! 🤟
Great to see Tom with the support he deserves can't wait to see what he pull off this yr. 😮

One thing I love about Tom, he will always send it by himself in any condition 🔥

No one goes bigger or more casually. I hope to see you pull Matt into the 110 and if all the planets align, You Sam and Matt in a train T 2 B would be Sick! The bike is Bonkers Dude! Wicked paint job and Stacked to the Eyeballs! Best of luck Bro, Cheers - M
Fuck yes Tom, so stoked for you bro, last year rocking the Ebay Giant Glory this year full custom iceT Glory, well deserved dude 🤙✊️
Never underestimate the IceT - respect!
That's a sick looking bike dude.. can't wait for your next vid... Cheers to you 🤟🎶
Love the uncut 3:25
So chilled, just another day in the Ice T office.
Sick paint job. Let#s goooooo
The pov of that big 360 near the end was absolutely mad 🙌🏼👏🏼
Dude, that's a sick paint job!
I thought I recognised the girlish squeals of Matt Jones behind you on your 2nd run. 😁 (To be fair, I was fist pumping when I saw him flip that rocket behind you the next time)
Looking forward to some massive Ice-T sends!
It's been a long time waiting to see you at Darkfest again, but it was so worth it 😊😊
That bike is sooo sweet. You sure earned it and it's a KenAwsome to watch you use it! Top to bottom run and backflips all day. Cheers from Australia. Lets GOOOO!
Im not a Giant fan, but I gotta admit, the paintjob on most Giant bikes are just 🥵
Profile elite hubs 🚲🔥🔥🔥
Beautiful bike u got there Tom!
Top to bottom in the first session is wild. You're madman 💪💪
Sick video thanks Tom
What a BOSS! T2B! Just going to do a few run-ins.
Bike sounds super smooth!!! I love my Giant!!! I also got a Kona both are great!!!
I wonder what would scare Tom... maybe the 110 needs to get even bigger next year!
Nice work with the build Tom! You have to tilt your helmet cam further up though, it's all ground the way you have it!
Unreal looking bike. Absolute animal doing T 2 B so casual. Would love if the GoPro was tilted up slightly so you can see a bit more of what’s coming and the rider in front!
The king of the hill is back. Awesome
Isted is the dude! Coming to watch you in Cairns bro!
So crazy and damn good as usual, IceT the machine !!! If I may add one little thing, it might be good to put the gopro in ultrawide or pointing a bit further so wen can see a bit more of what's coming. Cheers man you're a legend
Sick build. crazy sesh. so rad.
Damn that new bike rides smooth
sick looking bike and you look happy, enjoy fest and sender !
That's the plan!
Bike looks rad!
Looking forward to some mire legendary Ice T darkfest content
Smash it again Tom!
Welcome back to SA dude 🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻 you make this line look too easy 😂
Come a long way in one year mate..👍👊💥💥💥
Yes Tom! Can’t wait to see the steeziest runs on the big line 💯🔥❤️👊🏻
Dope footage! Awesome paint job on the bike, looking forward to the next. Let's go
Legend!
Bike is such a dream!
Most chilled
They dont like it😂😂✌️
The one and only Ice T dominating darkfest day one!! You really are one of top free riders in the world!
Giant out here supporting Tom while other brands be dropping riders ❤
That was actually a rather neat paint job
thank god for go pro cameras so we can experience just how fricking good these guys are on a mtb bike
Oh Yeah, that is a Amazing Paint Job and I can't wait to see more from Darkfest...🤙👽
I have that same custom job after a day out winter riding. 😅
bike looks mint
Let’s GOOOO!!!!!
Camera angle could be higher.
Love the marble paint job tho👌
So sick dude can’t wait to see what happens this year!
The shoes you were wearing during the bikecheck are pure German-Dad-equipment, just missing some fresh white socks 😅
Upper echelon elite level riding per usual. Kudos mate.
Stay safe stay confident!!!
Well deserved, that Giant is fucking mental! I'm saving up for one myself now that you've showed us how they can jump damn
I wonder if ice t is gonna try to beat his world record backflip this year at darkfest 😊😮
Last year was nearly to flat!
Like you haven't been away!
That little line right there 😂😂😂 the perfect ending to the video sorry t but ice t wins this round 😂😂
Sick!! just need to raise horizon on the gopro
i was hoping the paint would match the one from 2014 you rode last year
Its not black marble, it looks frozen - really cool custom job ✌
Think Tom was dangling a 'giant' worm Infront of them last year on his eBay frame😂 Been saying it for a few years. A mystery how he didn't get picked up sooner. Everyone could see it but the actual bike manufacturers. GT dropped the ball.
A new world record attempt on the 110?
sickest paintjob ive seen in a good while, gotten sick of the solid bright colors ;P!
"No, it's not. It's fucking Sunday. And I've got to go to fucking work in four fucking hours 'cos every other fucker in my fucking department is fucking ill! Now can you see why I'm SO FUCKING ANGRY?"
Hahah that's all I could think when you said that.
Edit: Kept trying to scroll farther up the page LOL Like I could move the camera angle HAHA
the paint job is sick!
She’s such a sweetie
Looks like somebody like that frame so much they blew a load all over it! 😅
Sick!!! Great new bike and great riding!!!
Nice painting 👍🏼
So after running a 26” last year is this a 27.5? And how different does it feel to flip?
Rip it!
how do you not mention the SBone tensioner???
What do you fellow Isted viewers think that he has in planning this year ?
I figure he would do what I would do IF I had the skills that he has !
What would that be ?
Double Backflip the 120 yard jump ?
OR is that TOO dangerous ? And am I expecting too much of this magician on a bike ?
AND has a "Superman Backflip" ever been done ?
So off the bike, rotation, and back on the bike landing.
Probably TOO hard as then his body functions like a sail, thus catching too much wind during flight. Since it needs the 120 yards forward movement, instead of only shooting up and dropping down.
And cos they stretch out their bodies during a superman, they catch wind like a sail and then i figure rotating becomes real hard cos of the forward movement instead of shooting up and down like on an air bag. I figure these jumps be possible on an airbag but real hard on DarkFest cos of the forward movement AND the wind.
BUT they keep inventing more difficult tricks each year, so bet one day both of these tricks will be done. Just think the wind may be too much on DarkFest to do these tricks.
What do you think ?
And YES i know Tom can do double backflips !
But doing it on a bag or upward jump on a course is another thing then doing it on this 120 yard forward jump. BUT Isted HAS the record as first one to backflip it. SO figure he be the first to do the double as wel.
Another Idea
OR do you all think he will turn it around this year ?
So being the first to FRONTFLIP the 120 yard jump ?
THATS another challenge I would think about doing to "up my game" HAD I been as talented as Tom.
Which ever one it be, I'm looking forward to it !
I think Tom will just want to put the challenge up as high as he can, for as long as he can. HE would be my inspiration had I still been biking at competitions.
what saddle
I just can’t take a man serious who wears Tiva’s! 🤪
ur cam is pointing towards the floor to much man in my opinion but nice vid u rule
Yeah I’m going to sort that
Cam pointing at floor :/
Suntour sus?! I must have heard that wrong lol.
Camera angle is too low. That made it difficult to watch the pov sections.
first
nerd...lol jkjk
@@slimkdnvrso funny man
Nerd
@@djm6431 bro you cant ride a bike like me🤣
can you zoom out a bit on your camera because for a lot of it all we can see is your front wheel and handle bars and very little of the huge stuff you are hitting
Paint looks like someone ran out of time.
💥👍♥️🇬🇧
Damn Tom, you make that look so smooth and relaxed. Well done mate!
