This Shouldn't Be Possible On A Bike : Jack Carthy In Glasgow Part 1
Vložit

- I'm the first to admit that despite being a very good trials rider, I'm far from the best (in both Street and Comp style). Jack Carthy CAN claim to be the best though with multiple World Championships under his belt for competition style riding. I've known Jack since he was a small lad as we both rode Shipley Glen a lot (and I'm stoked to say that Jack admitted I was a big inspiration for him, yay!) and it's been cool to see him grow up and become such a dominating power in the comps.
Before Jack stormed the scene the best riders were at a level that I couldn't believe what they could get their bikes up and across but Jack took that level and doubled it and is now doing things none of us back then thought was possible.
I managed to get a couple of clips but I'll be honest, this video isn't about me and I'm happy to take a back seat and give Jack the stage.
We filmed too much for a single sitting so part two will come later.
What do you think?
Thanks for watching!

Who wants more videos with Jack? Any other riders I should ride with?
Awesome video, it is a real treat to see Jack in street, since then it easier to grasp his level, which by the way is insane. I would love to see You, Jack and Charlie Rolls in one street video.
Yes please! Also where in the world is bigshot Danny Mac XD...
but other than them, do you know any riders with african/asian/middle eastern/south american roots that would like the exposure?
Fabio Wibmer, Danny Macaskill, Duncan Shaw, Tomomi Nishikubo, Yuki Kishi, John Langlois, Gabriel Wibmer, Laurenz Konradi, Fabian Dankl, The Useless Trials and so on🙏
Flipp! His talent is majorly underestimated, I never knew the stuff he does would be possible without brakes.
I wish Jack or you rode my cheapo Decathlon ST100 just to demonstrate what's possible on it haha
Crazy stuff guys. Game of Bike between Jack and Charlie would be the video of the year 👌😁
The level of riding there is insane. Trials has most definitely progressed over the years. Fair play, that was awesome, Ali 👌🏻
Many trials riders do things that seem they “shouldn't be possible” - but Jack Carthy looks like he can just completely switch off or modify the rules of physics at will.
The people’s reaction at 5:33 is so heart warming haha. Great riding from you guys, awesome vid as always Ali!
Scotland is trials country, I always assume people to be appreciative and supportive of trials athletes like Ali there. You can see it in the videos sometimes but this was a rather enthusiastic outburst of support. xD
@@2nd3rd1st exactly lol
What really adds to it - besides the mad slills - it the quietness of it. No motors no noisy surroundings, just concentration and focus... thnx 4 sharing.
Jack is great and so are you Ali! Please never underrate yourself. As a 45 year old man I desire to have half your skills, and I have just ordered my first #inspired 24 flow plus! Super stoked and nervous about the work to make joy on this bike. Stay awesome Ali!
both of you are sick rider. Don't sell yourself short Ali. You have very different styles, but that makes you no worse than him. Personally I enjoy your riding style for what it is, not for you sidehop record or gapping distance
14:15 the only moment you can assume Jack is a trial rider like all of us. Hesitating before breaking running into a personal brain barrier called sanity.
bike has 2 wheels, only use 1 at a time to save wear and tear, smart thinking.
This is mind blowing stuff!
It was great to see you today Ali and thanks for stopping for a chat was great 👍
He's just on another level... you know that someone is very good when it looks effortless and smooth.
17:03 I literally thought he was jumping on the roof of that van 😲😂
Im truly in awe, He is really at the top! Keep pulling Next level stuffs casually.
Nice, loving the collabs with Jack. Looking forward to see you both on the street bike and maybe both on the comp bike also!
Wow! That's insane, I can't comprehend what I'm seeing 😱 looking forward to part 2 :)
Excited for part 2! That hook up the sculpture was so impressive.
Love how you and Jack get on! Always a treat to see you two ride together.
When I saw the thumbnail clips roll I thought it was you on your comp bike and couldn't believe how much you had changed your tune on rolling the bars forwards haha.
jack, "your turn ali".
ali, "i'll see what i can do"
jack just slow rolls over the section....
cracking vid lads. jack really does take it to the next level and then some.
INSANE. So much control... now I want to learn trials.
Utterly insane riding. Huge lines but smooth as silk. The way his back tire sticks to everything is like magic. Great vid Ali!
Undoubly him again,truly eyes-opener.
Just blown away how good that was, that was skill. Thanks to both of you.
woooow! how did I even missed that masterpiece? you both guys are fabulous!
Freaking insane!!! Awesome video guys!
I love the way he makes the 7 foot hook then straight after at 6:33 steps over a 16" wall
Another brilliant video.
Incredible skills!
So good seeing that level of riding in my local area. Great video.
so much skill and pure trials awesomeness in one vid. i need more of it, sooo good... 👌🔥😀
Nice to see you guys end I love watching you ride bikes I cent learn many things 😀🔥🔥
making the most of a sunny day in scotland with the world champ! good stuff Ali!
We need you and Jack with the comp bikes!!
Awesome vid as per usual buds 🤜
That is just crazy stuff. Jack seems to have more style than other comp riders I have seen.(I am not a trials expert) Loved this!
Amazing riding I’m blown away! 🤯
Jack never fails to impress.
More exposure to comp riders can only be a good thing!
Looking forward to tomorrow 😉
Jack. You are a bike ninja of the finest kind !!! Epic dude
just amazing the things these guys are able to do.. world class
Incredible riding. Great idea for some episodes Ali!
Fair play..that was nuts and humbling!
Awesome. Makes it look so easy.
great video Ali.
amazing level
Total class from Jack , we need more Ali C clips mixed in as well, you're too good to just film.
People passing by have no idea who they crossed paths with. The legend
Jack Carthy 😱😱. Well done for bringing him up to your patch.
-The fear? Is that what you mean?
-The Want!
lol
Great video Ali. Looking forward to see part 2. Oh btw, if you could ride together with Danny Mcskill that would be awesome. And also there is a Japanase rider Tomomi that maybe someday we could see you riding together. Cheers mate and well done!
Looks fun. Awesome!
Good content. Power and grace there.
That’s next level!
great video and amazing riding
Wow Ali, your mate Jack really is a world class Trials Bicycle Rider and with those skills
Hope to get to see you some point in Glasgow 👍
Amazing.
@1:42 wait... was that a warm up lap!?
Edit after watching the whole video:
I feel like we need a Jack Carthy street trials edit withing the next 2 years...
Also i feel like one of the main differences if someone is doing a sport for so long at a high level is consistency. Just looking at how consistent he brings out those quite big moves is insane. I got a similar feeling when i first started watching Tom Cardy's videos when he was riding with Sam Pilgrim. Obviously both inredible riders, doing things on their bikes i don't even dare to dream about. But that consistency Sam has in bringing those tricks is incredible. Tom is getting more and more consistent, which is very visible when you go back to older videos and compare it to his riding now.
Another example where it was visible for me was Warner Nickerson. Former Pro-Alpine skier who did this series "kicking it with a badass". When he was skiing with someone like Alexis Pinturault, Mikaela Shiffrin, Alice Robinson or Dave Ryding it was obvious how incredibly consistent they bring those turns compared to Warner.
Awesome riding!
Have to wake up early for work but this is worth not getting enough sleep😂
Jack is insane, there's no other way to describe it 🤯
Absolut madness 🤯
Fantastic
Some serious exposure in this vid. Insane...!
Great video. I’m inspired
Mind. Blown. 🤯🤙🏼
Very impressive Riding 🤙
Great video nice job
Unbelievable!
Sick 🤘🏼
Would like to see you ride with Sam Pilgrim. Not a trial guy all the way but will sure be a cool vid!
Awesome footage. I love the style of Ali and it is fun to see what Jack can do. @Ali - Would it be possible to do a ride/video with Flipp?
Wow that was so good. 👍
just insane
Insane 💥🚀🚀
awesome
Insane
Unbelievable 😳 WOW
Thats unreal 🤯
He has some amazing skills
Unbelievable
Wow!
Jack of all trials. Nice :)
..I could watch him forever..
What's crazy to me is how much Jack can seemingly do on the first try.
insane
Still a really good watch!
17:43 - 17:55 what a line!
I always wanted to know, how do your headset bearings hold up when doing all those hooks etc? They must wear out quicker than normal?
I highly doubt they go thru more abuse than your average mountain bike headset
Forks are the bottleneck usually.
This shows Jack spends his 19hrs out of 24hrs over his bike, he is super smooth on his bike.
Have been building some some trials lines on weird angled trees for few years, but since my skills are not anywhere near this level have to make lines easier, then wait for ground to harden up, but still have some lines that will never be ridden except from better rider?
But still feel that could make a good edit?
Huge! I cannot believe it XD
Uaoo complimenti 👏👏👏spettacolare che bravi
Jack must have made a deal with the devil. Insane easyness. If he can think it, he does it.
He's riding all this stuff so easy!
Those are some sticky rim brakes. I expected disks for that stopping strength.
Rim brakes for ultimate power (leverage). Discs for modulation and not being so noisy :-)
@Josh Tomczyk I'm guessing hydraulic rim brakes, but couldn't see clearly in the video
🤯
Woow!!!
nice one for Ali for the hookof!
@1:26 Jack hangs out to talk with only one foot on the ground as to make the most of his dab.
😳😲👏🏼
is there any kind of regulation with regards to stem length, angle, bar..etc..his stem is so far forward that it has to influence reach, leverage..etc.. (obviously means diddly squat if you can't do 1% of what he does, but in the hand of a super skill rider)...
Also, pretty crazy to se teh flex he puts on his fork when he hooks his front wheels and load it to get up on an obstacle, totally rad
what I prefere in this video is the "part 1" in the title :-D
Jack Carthy is super human!
