Is this the most INSANE jump ever that has been built by Nico Vink!?

We decided it would be great fun to escape the winter blues in the UK and take a short trip over to Spain so we could hit the dry trails. In this video we ride the super cross line before heading up the hill to find the pro line. This line is built by Nico Link and is a loose fest style line with insanely HUGE jumps and the most interesting corkscrew feature! I am using my fully custom Ghost RIOT full party enduro bike to tackle these dream MTB trails!

I hope that you enjoy this video!

What’s going on guys welcome back to another video where today we are once again in Spain at laf fenosa bike park and I’m just hoping that the wind is going to die down so we can hit some of the bigger features we got to make it over to the uh lift

Today there we go back to breakfast first jump of the day straight in with a flip we’re going to pick things up where we left off yesterday so we didn’t do Supercross cuz it was windy it’s still actually annoyingly windy up here but there’s drops so let’s hope that we get

One of those drops in the Wind you nice there we go yo yes that was so good I’m honestly so stoked that we managed to get a lap on that I was gued yesterday when the wind was crazy it was still quite bad headwind which is why I had to Pedal in

A few places I’m so stoked we managed to do that there’s some big secret stuff which I want to go find so let’s go and check it out we’ve made our way over to the Pro Line This is the ni Vin secret line with that toilet bowl everyone

Here’s been telling me it’s massive you have to get special permission to ride it it’s not even on the map cuz it’s so gnarly it’s like Fest series style I have never done before so I don’t even know if I’m going to be able to do it

Sergio Laos was here the other day he broke his ribs and his collar bones jumping out of here and I’m on my own with no one to help game on here we go then there’s see what this feels like I’m just going to ride at it to start with oh my God

Wow oh my yeah that was well good that’s so quick yeah but I don’t i’ ever come into a corner that fast it’s insane yeah I want to do it again just to feel it yeah I mean even that’s quite a long jump isn’t it massive jump

Yeah it’s got to get used to the speed it’s so I’ve never I don’t I ever hit something that quick that’s the RAC that we just hit which is actually quite long but it’s just the fact that it goes straight into a turn cuz you need to

Keep the speed around that corner to get out the dish let’s try again now I know what to expect the speed let’s give this another try I’m just going to do the toilet bowl again not jump out of it let’s just see wow so the illusional once you’re in it

Yeah yeah like you don’t know where you are I was like going around it and it took me a minute to like figure out like oh cuz it looks like the landing’s there I’ll try I’ll just do a few just to get my bearings with it okay let me just do a few

More I think that’s it isn’t it yeah let me just see that clip yeah I’m H into the middle of it which is where I need to be okay I’ll do one more run in then I think I got it you’ve had to just gone it to work

Wouldn’t it yeah didn’t it yeah I think so just there I don’t know if I got that I can’t hold the corner I think I’m unfortunately going to have to walk away from this which sucks I hate to leave things but it’s massive like I’ve done probably a good hour of

Just riding it and feeling stoked about it but it’s honestly I mean just look at it from here it’s such a gnarly feature like what’s happening is when I’m here in the burm I’m ging out big time like I’ve never hit a corner that quick and that tight and my body’s fully

Compressed I can’t hold myself up and then when I get to the end I can’t see what I’ve got to do like I just can’t cuz it’s it feels like if you go on a roller coaster it act and and the force pushes you back in the seat that’s what

It feels like but then all of a sudden you’re presented with a jump and it’s like my brain’s not quite quick enough and I’ve never done like these Fest style jumps I know this probably isn’t even the size of what they do on them courses and that like this would be by

Far the biggest setup I’ve ever ridden far from like ideal the fact it’s this toilet bowl sort of feature there’s probably not another one of these in the world I don’t think but I want to come back and do it this isn’t the end I will come back this year and complete the

Toilet bow be good to do it with some other Riders see someone hit it as well that makes a big difference I’m obviously just up here on my own it’s so so difficult to sort of visualize and understand how it works when you don’t really have that much of an idea of how

To ride it so yeah that’s that let’s actually wander down because there’s some massive massive jumps down there which I’ll show you once you land that shark fin then you come down off the landing there which is huge into this racer which actually like this is massive but that wouldn’t bother me like

I would hit that straight away and then it goes into a enormous jump we’ll go check it out here we go then this is the next jump which is this lip it lands in there on the angle which again is like an odd feature but I could actually

Visualize that it’s just a jump like although it lands at an angle is so much more familiar finally ends with this big hip that’s like a skate park style lip nice and deep boost you up probably so high and flowy into that I think if we

Could get the toilet bowl then we could do the whole line but I can’t do the toilet ball and I’m happy to say that I know like I’m a pro Rider I’ve ridden contests and lots of different things but I think it’s good to show things like the sports always progressing and

This is a like a side of it that I’ve never stepped into like darkfest or Fest series or anything that like Nik [ __ ] and them guys are doing is something I’ve never ever laid eyes on the biggest jumps I’ve ridden are ones that we have

At home in the UK which don’t even come close to this so to be out here on your own trying to tackle it with no advice is like starting from the beginning again and I’m proud to show you guys that you know everything’s a challenge no matter what level of Rider you are

Unless you’re Sam who would probably get on it on a free bike and do it and I genuinely believe that because he’s crazy what do you think of that KJ I think it’s quite big actually definitely wouldn’t be something I would want to do and and I sound awful because I think

I’ve caught a cold Tom’s also got a cold too and he gave it to me but yeah that’s impressive like I I think that you done so good to get like to even go around that because that’s honestly like a wheel of death you know like the spiral

That the motorbikes go around that no not for me unfortunately it’s still too windy on the kickers and stuff down here for the MTB but they’re jumping the motorbikes which is so sick here we go wow I’m just going to jump that instead I think my God there we have it then that

Is a wrap on what has been an insane few days here at lenosa Bike Park got a little Motocross show in there at the end I’ll be back for sure because I want to do that n [ __ ] line and hopefully we get a day a couple of days when it’s not

As windy the conditions have actually been super super tough here I feel a bit sad walking away having not completed things in this video but I guess it’s just reality and I want this channel to be real we come places and you don’t always do it and if that’s you out there

Riding and you come away from something then there’s no shame in that I’ve just done it I’m annoyed of myself but I’ve just done it so it’s real life and that’s sometimes how the cookie crumbles so if you enjoyed this video give us a thumbs up leave your comments down below

And I will see you guys in the next video do I got to have it I ain’t even playing got a really bad habit If It Moves got to grab it fuse like a magnet L won’t have it till I’m doomed in a casket I ain’t playing got a weird mind

If you work eight hours I’mma work nine if the shoot taste sour you should taste mine I’mma stay in power for a long time get up now ain’t a

  1. Mate well spoken u never see people walk away I guess things just get bigger and harder but it does look mega, having seen u many times at twisted I have no doubt that it’s well be within ur realm to take a rain check is a pro move in my eyes,
    🤟👌

  2. That is an insane jump, love the idea of it, very clever thinking. The speed you were going round it is crazy and you will probably fly 200ft out of the lip but like you say, knowing the speed is so important so to follow someone would make doing that so much easier, good luck when you get back to it.

  3. Looks massive and awkward (title of ya sex tape), but also very cool. The speed you need to hold to get around and jump is crazy!
    We have a pretty rad smaller reverse version at my local that I will never have skills to be able to ride, still appreciate the crap out of crazy features though!

  4. I get ya with this Tom that berm is like one I have in my woods it’s intense hitting it at full speed the strength it takes to hold a good position and focus on where your going too is really hard iv had some experiences and mines just over a 180 berm too

  5. I have such immense respect for people who have a tremendous amount of control over their skill.

    Tom clearly is one of these impressive people in the bike world, but what I find more impressive is the "control" and approach of the process.

    To be able to articulate what you're doing, why, what risks you're identifying, how you assess for yourself – so others can learn and keep themselves safe is beyond impressive and meaningful to viewers like me.

    Thanks and mad respect.

  6. You'll get it dude! Watched a few vids on this and I'm certain you're going faster than other riders who have cleared it. Follow some guys in next time you're there and you've got it 💪

  7. Surely there's got to be a more rad name for " the toilet bowl" hahaha 🤣… how about " the shoot into space jump " or " the iguana tongue" lol…. awesome vid dude cheers to you 🤟🎶

  8. Just jump it. You done much crazier jumps before. You had the speed. You just need to commit. Honestly, I can't believe you need special permission to ride that. I rode pump tracks that were more gnarly than that. Down voted.

  9. This was an amazing insight into how truly technical and massive these courses are getting. Good on you for showing a real battle, and not just throwing the footage away. You will be back for sure! Cheers from CA! 🤙🏼

    That's a link to a YouTube short of that exact jump Tom. It looks awesome and the biker put a little style on it too. I think you can get that jump easy but it's a matter of commitment to it kinda like you help Kara with sometimes. You're amazing and can get it with your skills for sure. I believe in you. 👍

    There's also this one I seen like a year ago of a different corkscrew, but this one is like a beginner version and not as big as the one you were at.

  11. Well done Tom that was a hectic gap but I reckon you and Sam should go back and get Sam to take you though it
    Honestly you and Sam make the best content and it would make a really good video
