Thank you all for watching my videos! Make sure to check out this link for your purchases. It supports the channel so I can do more of these edits: bit.ly/3HeWUlm
Remy´s cameraman must be great rider, everytime he w8 for Remy to come down :D
It only took him 4 hours:) Just kidding he shreds!
he doesn't have a cameraman, only his shadow can keep up with him :-)
Camera men are always the mvp. Any rider will tell ya, from Joe to Pro. Hahah. 🔥Awesome vid.
🤣🤣
wow really@@remymetailler
big props for sharing your difficulties and not editing them out Remy :)
Absolutely
Yeah these are the true contents we want to see and we enjoy them as well
This video brings back so many good memories. I raced the psychosis in '99. I recall someone took a photo of me rolling over the big rock at 18:33 of the video - the best part was we were given paper dinner plates to use as number plates! The trail and racing was raw back then. Thanks Remy!
Damn you guys are steep addicts!
@@mumblerocks77 TBH, we didn't know how steep it was until we arrived the evening before the race and rode some practices sessions. We had already paid entry fee and accommodations so we were at the point of no-return. Of the mere mortals who raced, those who cleaned the top section basically won. Finishing times were around 15 minutes if you rode it clean. I remember the wrist pump being so bad by the time I reached the finish, I couldn't even pull the brake levers.
Such a well edited and put together video. This gave a really great sense of the Steepness and how consequential it could be! Well ridden, mate! When you hear Remy say he was nervous about the steep after the rain, you KNOW it's damn gnarly. Cheers!
You know that any average mtber would literally DIE ASAP on those trails lol
The most impressive part is hiking back up with your bike. Insane trail!
standing at the top of the trail and knowing how steep this is, I find hard to believe you can go so fast and mostly in control!
While it’s wet to
I would definetly pass through everything, but the speed test Remy does is incredible... with a test ride and with a quick look, he goes down insanely fast
He has a monster brain and body to analyze most trials ASAP@@bigbarrelbr
GoPro needs to RnD into “perspective mode” the steepest trail in the world still looks like something Jerry could ride after work! Good stuff 😎
I did a few laps around the high school running track today. I figure I’m pretty much ready to take this trail on.
I enjoy the view from your camera man so we can see your body position going to this kind of stuff. It’s always very tempting to get SUPER far back but it’s cool to see that you can still keep your arms bent and relaxed. Nice work!
Great video also wanted to say I really like how throughout your videos you stop to explain how best to navigate the terrain you are riding. Basically quick tutorials that are super helpful. Thx and keep the great videos coming 👍 🚴♂️😎
Remy thanks the videos. The passion and the urge to progress and be safe with body position and line choice. Can’t wait to hit the trails and apply what I’ve been learning. If you ever come to thunder let us viewers know. Would love to your riding in person man! Cheers from Northeast USA!
i love how your videos are entertaining and you also teach good ways to go down. Love the vids
Really like the colors of the handheld camera! :)
Well done Remy. I really know the struggle - I can’t enjoy riding when I don’t know where I’ll able to stop again. Steeps are fun when you can control them - you did really good in the first section! 👌🏽🔥
That lower part looks so much fun 🙃
You are my 'go to' guy for mountain bike videos. Love your tips and your work. Fantastic!!!
That was a crazy trail, and some amazing riding. I like how you break it all down and explain your thinking for each part of the trail. That will help a lot the next time I ride a steep decent.
Impressive as always! Would enjoy seeing Remy tackle some of our steeps in Santa Cruz, California.
Merci de rester humble et de montrer que même les pro peuvent faire face à des défis! Good job🤘
Exciting to watch! 🙌🏽 That really gets me into the mood for the upcoming steeps of Les Gets and surroundings next week. Thanks, guyz! 🤙🏽
The thing a love about watching yours and Phil's vids is the amazing line choices! I see the line i'd take and bam you're off on some other wild line! Great stuff!
Grew up in Golden and this makes me sooooo happy to see you riding on my home turf!! I wish I was there to give you a tour! Great video man :)
Hey Remy
Great video it's super interesting to see how you analyze the wet conditions and behave accordingly.
Here in switzerland it is extremely dry and dusty at the moment it would be very interesting to see how you react to dusty almost sandy surfaces and what you pay special attention to.
Appreciate your super logical brain. You explain things in a way that a science minded person can understand easily. Thank you!
Your riding lights up my day. Thanks for sharing!
What a trail! 😱 Like a giant rollercoaster for bikes. "S..t your pants" steep at the beginning when you're nearly out of control followed by crazy fast flowy "freight train speedy Remy" part with trees whizzing by at a rate higher then my heart watching this😳. You did it again Remy, never ceasing to amaze us. Thank you!
Loving the content recently, everything has been on point, the riding, the cinematics, the editing, and the behind the scenes of what’s going on inside your head!
Keep it coming!!
Thank you!
Loved the intro and bike prep. Also, great riding !
I'm so glad you know your limits with such precision but I still say you speedster downhillers are a special breed of crazy...Can't imagine going anywhere near that fast down a slope like that 😵💫
Really cool. When I rode this the first time 17 years ago I just remember sliding locked up wheels the entire way down dead dog. You missed the drops at the cliff section at 18:33 :-).
I fell in love with this trail exactly 17 years ago, looks much smoother now but it's the most epic free trail in the world
Great Edit, and riding advise! Thanks!
Remy is one of the best riders ever. Not just because of his amazing skill but because he is so humble!
That was very intense!!! Great job going down that! That is so difficult!
Remy you are such a dialed rider I love watching your vids you inspire me more and more everyday thankyou for that and keep em coming lol your awesome 👌
Ha I was talking to you that entire ride... Off the brakes... hit that root at the 90!! haha! Whens a mtb rider always an mtb rider! Loved this vid!
I hear ya, I was like "yes!! You gotta use that tree as a deflect..,okay now get ready for root hell.... " impressive riding as always especially knowing this trail well.
Nice work Remy! Having attempted Dead Dog in full grease, full flour and actually rode it when "ideal", I've never been so impressed that you were able to go so slow!
This ... its very hard to go slow here
Super intense and gnarly ... If remy says it's hard... I can't even comprehend what he's riding. Cool video 👍
Really scary... so steep buddie! No jokes in these trails so steep an so fast. You’re a legend!
Sick trail dude 🤯 300k that's amazing man, congrats 🤩🤘🔥
This has to be the craziest riding I've ever seen! It would be really cool if we could see your speed while you rip these trails, put it into perspective how fast you're shredding.
One of the nastiest trail I ever raced on. Did the race trail back in 2000 on Specialize P3 hardtail. Will have to venture back there one day and Oldman it.... super awsome content. Keep it up.
Ah, Mt 7, I have launched my hang glider there many times. As a MTB rider and a hang glider pilot the thought of launching my hang glider there puts a smile on my face and gives me a warm fuzzy feeling, the thought of dropping into that steep MTB trail scares the sh!t out of me.
Great video buddy, some helpful tips and pointers 👍
Your a great rider. Looks like fun- though after my mTBI, I would not dream to ever do that. Every time you pasted a tree at speed, my head hurt. You have no idea until you hit your head how quickly your life can change. 3 years out I am better but still not the same. I use to be just as fearless as you- ski off cliffs, mountain bikes, jump motorcycles, judo, you name it. When you get a bit older, you value things differently. Now I am more into fitness, running, nutrition (I used for healing), my dog and my guitar!
Stay safe- Cheers!
don't beat yourself up for admitting to your mistakes Remy....there's lots of tubers out there who only show the good bits and others think ever trail is "peachy" stay safe 🙏
rode my bike in the garage a bit today, how's everyone else doing? :}
amazing brake control mr Rémy, some sections are literally too steep and slicky to walk..
use to ride dead dog in early 2000s with cam breaks, not even v breaks! we would sand the rims to get extra grip. no matter what you ride it with its the real deal.
I've ridden that trail..I wouldn't Look down it in the wet! Hats off to ya for even attempting it.
btw Remy..I think it would be really interesting for you to just quickly explain your set up (e.g tyre pressures...shock set up..high and low speed rebound.) for all the different rides you do ...squamish...whistler...steep boggy conditions like today cheers from Sydney ! 🤙
Went down a steep bit today for the first time. Embsay Crag in England. No where near as fast, and had trouble with the rocks but the steep bit was like the trail you were at. Bloody scary.
Sheesh. How steep does that second section look, even with the GoPro effect? You summed it up nicely where the average mug punter survives a trail but it's not that enjoyable. Obviously there is a difference where the conditions weren't great for you, but for a lot of us, the trails asks us questions we have no answer for. Keep up the content dude!
Dam!!…Sycosis is No joke! That first steep part of the trail would probably make me shit my pants! Lol! Epic riding as always Remy! 🤟
Great video Remy! Nice to see you are human and do struggle sometimes like us normal riders. Is the video with the bear encounter available to see? Love your videos and passion! Keep them coming 👍🏻🙂
Judging GoPro video and your speed on the bike, I can really imagine myself how this track is steep in real! Interest and cool as always, Remy! =)
vraiment INCROYABLE tes videos. Gros respect. Take care.
your skill is unbelievable, probably because you are so good at assessing risk and knowing limits.
Just unbelievable, fantastic.
Man you're really picking up the game!! That intro rocks!! Another great video!
Thank you!
Holy crap Remy!!!!!!! That was absolutely INSANE!!!!!!!!!!!
Everything i watch one of your videos, I feel myself getting better at mountain biking
Wow, not sure I would even want to walk that section with no bike and good hiking boots haha. Nice riding!
Such a great video Remy! I enjoyed everything about it and really liked the riding tips even though I will never attempt anything like that trail. 😂 At the beginning of the video, why did you swap wheels?Different size?
Epic ride! Really enjoyed this years video. Thanks for making rad content for the world to see! Fucking Awesome 👏🏼
Had the Seasons soundtrack playing in my head the whole video, what an iconic trail
Insane speed at the bottom!🤙
Epic video, definitely going to have a look at the trail I. September when we are there. Is it listed on trail forks?
It's on top of mount 7. If you go know that the top section you see and drop into is WAY easier than into the Forrest, there it gets steeper and the roots are suspended with open-faced beneath ( it gets much much steeper ) lots of good trails in the area .
Excellent trail no room for error on that descent. Love the channel

Another epic video 🙌🙌🚀
Man! You are from another Galaxy 👊😎 Awesome Chanel!
Eeeee? 🤣🤣🤣
Yeah red clay in any type of wet is just absolute death. I kinda got used to it (I bring out the twitchy-electrified-chicken technique as needed nowadays) as I cut my teeth free riding a gorge with dirt very similar to that and its just so damn insane how little traction you get once you add a bit of H2O to the mix. Nice in the summer though, but I feel the loamy type pine forests are a lot nicer to ride in pretty much all weather.
Sweet riding as usual :) Amazing spot too.
Sick video Remy, scary steep.Is there a way that you can link a speedo with the video, would be great to see how quick you get, as you know the camera does not show speed and terrain depth of field.
That was soo much fun to watch!
Wow... How nice Skill Big Fan, From mountian Nepal .🙌❤
I prefer this kind of trail when wet.
That's so Blown out and dusty 😬 Remy is A madman
"Maybe I can find some traction" he says being totally hucking it. You are a colossal bad ass.
I swear I could smell your brake pads through the screen!!! Crazy how much skill you have, most riders would have tumbled down that mountain 10 meters from the top! I love how much confidence you have in your tires, are you running DHR/DHF or a different combo?
Assegai front and back. Love my Maxxis!
unbelievable! Great job! And in reality its always steeper than it look on camera ;-)
I rode dead dog in the rain and I’ve never been so scared on a mountain bike. Coming from riding Squamish/Pemby trails, usually riding in the rain makes for better dirt conditions…not a slip and slide on clay. I feel much better about my experience after watching you struggle as well.
Never thought I'd see remy cautious of ride something, must be gnarly
What an edit! Wow💯🤌🏾
please dont be embressed my lad, your miles ahead of most all of us, sick ridin man!
This makes me want to go rip through woods right now! 🤙
Keren Remy Metailler. It's really impressive.
Great video remy 🤘🏽

Remy could you please make a video how you film your footage with the gopro? Would be so nice to get to know how you get so nice and clean shots with your gopro
You should come ride Chinquapin chutes in Springfield Oregon. Short steep and super loose.
Rode this weekly in the 90's. Cantilever brakes. Rain or shine.
Remember the one year it snowed up top during the race it was quite the ride.
That was insane remy, I would’ve died
B 12 had a scary commitment ridge too
Would love to attempt something like this. Survive would be another thing...
Dead dog is a gnarly Trail for sure, It's steeper than it looks especially when you get into the trees
Sweet!
WOW - for me a whole new concept of "bikibg". Thanks
Locals, "It's unridable when wet".
Remy, "Hold my beer".
En cámara se ve fácil muchos dirán que baja lento nooo , este man tiene un control en su bike que no todos tienen . ese terreno con raices y rocas no cualquiera controla muchos van y se matan jajaja pero Rémy es un ser de otro planeta
The grey with the Green fork looks very well do you Drive all your bikes mullet(i prefer the grey spindrift with the Green dvo fork) do you have try the spindrift with 190 mm fork?
Almost all my bikes are mullet
I'm puckering just watching!
If Remy is riding like this I will for sure just for on this trail even when it’s dry lol.
This is a great tutorial for people that wanna learn how to ride a bike
