- Still being at home and rehabbing my ankle, I've handed the keys to the channel over to Theo Erlangsen! So you guys are in safe hands until I get back on site in a few days for the big event! But for now sit back and enjoy the build and poor Theo testing some of the worlds biggest jumps all on his own! Best get the bleep machine out!
Filmed by C A Greenwood and Thomas Sandell
Thanks for doing such a good job Theo!! 😂
YEEEAAA !! LETS GO!
loved his vibe !!!!!
Excellent in your absence, Seeyay did another great job.
This. What a fooking good job. The Stoke is infectious 🤘
I agree Theo is doing a bang-up job. Well good Sir!
It's always great to see some Theo content. The happiest guy in MTB.
Theo has to be one of the most likeable guys in MTB’ing. Always makes me laugh. Seems like such a positive guy. I’d love a few pints with him.
You gotta hit the 90 to have a pint....
@@z1onmedia475 haha!! Still recovering from the crash I had in Queenstown. That was less than 19 foot 🤣
Theo, you are one seriously gutsy guy! Kudos for taking on the challenge to guineapig this years jumps! 👊💥🤙🔥
So stoked for Darkfest this year! Theo did an awesome job taking over
Theo has got me hyped for DarkFest!! The lad has boundless energy 🤟
I love being able to, at least in part, share how the feelings of nerves turn into absolute joy, adrenaline and stoke! So good! Fair play Theo. Hero! 🤟😎🔥
Who are you trying to kidd Theo? Whether in mirth or nervousness, you're always laughing. Well done Sir!
Well done Theo and Justin for hosting! And GG to the rest of the crew as well of course.
I reckon Theo would be great doing the World Cup commentary. We need that energy back!
Cracking filming and edit C.A.! Theo, thanks for taking us along for the ride testing and some racing as a bonus.
That was awesome! Great build footage and test runs, down hill battle. Awesome 👌
Great work Justin and Theo, congratulations on the win. Hope the recovery is coming along nicely Sam.
Love Theo's updates and stoked to see the event!
Theo is such a chilled dude. Just seems like a vibe to have around at all times!
This was super rad! You’re the man Theo!!
Oh man this course is like a work of art killer job guys
such an awesome event dudes, love the night digging
Bro Theo’s laugh is super infectious
Sam is beast but Theo did an awesome job bringing the hype! Can't wait to see the full gang there, hope the ankle is healing up.
Theo is the man ! ahah good job Mate
Very cool!! Great video. 🔥💥
absolutely sick runs from Theo there, love that he was buzzin so hard form the runs he could hardly put a sentence together. Love Darkfest so much lets goooooo!!!
Alright, trail building edits are my new favorite thing.
Very cool episode indeed.Also liked seeing the local course that I was 1 of the original builders of years back....Go Paarl 🤗😉😎
Fun to watch some random downhill race. Brave guy to go first on those jumps, honestly think it’s the best trails like in the world.
Great job Theo 💪🏻🤘
Great vid.
Looking very forward to the actual event!!!
Of all the mt bike events that go on.
Dark fest and rampage are the two I get the most hyped up for!!!
😁
I'm now an old guy who is beyond stoked at the feeling of hitting a small table or short gap jump. Is what it is, i'm afraid of breaking my 40+yr old body. It must be the most amazing feeling to send these kind of jumps. Wish i was a young man without fear again!
In the same age range and feel the same way but we only live once so make those tables and gaps count :)
Guy, I feel the same! Used to race back in the 90's when MTBing first got started in SA. Only recently got back into biking and so want to charge like I did back then! Haha! But I have to respect my bodies age and I know i just can't do it. But watching these lighties hit those big jumps gets me all amped!
Tayho! Sick as usual! get some!
I love when it looks slowmotion at full speed. That must feel sooo gooood!!!
The channels in good hands Sam, the boys are doing an amazing job and Theo brings so much positive energy and style with him!
Awesome video.
Ah so awesome seeing the old homies pulling it together in Sam's absence. Theo, Justin and even a cameo from Pottie and Stefan. And a more than honourable mention to Mr Happy Easter - Duran Duran. Miss you all being in the far flung frozen North.
the course is looking mint!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Y'all have more creativity than when I was a kid. Take a piece of wood couple of cinderblocks and you had a jump. We weren't even smart enough to jump and land in the grass.
What an edit 🔥🔥🔥 and cracking job lads on carrying the channel... 👌👌🤙🤙🤙
I would love to see Theo make his own channel!!
Yeah Theo! Stoked on the Darkfest conny back on our screens!
Woo, hype!
Great edit. Can we just have Justin present? He is much better than that Sam bloke. Really seeing the insane amount of work and dedication from the trail crew, even slapping through the night, top work lads! Massive balls for testing Theo.
I hope the ankle is healing up Sam. You sure are missed up in the air. Cheers mate - M
yessirrrrrr so stoked for the riders to show up
Thanks for the good vibes Theo! I'm in a good mood now! 😄
Theo a legend!
Legend that is Theo
NGL Theo is just as good to watch!
cant wait to see some big tricks🔥🔥🔥
I could probably start a homestead and live up there for the remainder of my life 😍
What a boss
That feeling at the bottom is what we do it for 🤘
Best vid yet! (Just missing sam 😢)
C just chillin down there filming the whole time? Lucky
Sam wish I could be there pal. Stay true . Ross🤘🤘
💪
Banger 🦍

Must be sooo scary hitting those jumps by yourself
Building AND testing Darkfest lines - casually wins a downhill race mid-build 😂

sheesh
Theo why dont u ride the supreme v5 on them jumps ? Sick vid ❤️🔥
Hope I see someone do a 360 on 90ft😂
they are not diggers, they are artists
Racing Enduro on a DH bike?
That is actually a DH track in Paarl but yes, an Enduro bike will do just fine there. Cheers
Anyone else spot the face in the rocks at 6:38 😂
So sad - I was at Boschendal until January 15 and had looked to see if i can take a view to the Darkfest area, but didn't see any ad hoc options.
Is that generally possible? Is the area open to the public?
Regards,
Tobi
Same pozitive energy and smile as @AdamFreediver :D what are you ppl eating :D love it, ty for content and @SamReynolds26 hope see you soon behind handlebars
Great work Justin and Theo, congratulations on the win. Hope the recovery is coming along nicely Sam.
