THE JOURNEY TO RIDING THE BIGGEST BIKE JUMP IN THE WORLD!!

I attempt to ride the famous 110 ft jump at the biggest downhill free ride jumps in the world! Dark Fest 2024 has been unreal, the trick sessions and trains through the course have been amazing, but the real challenge on my bucket list is to ride the 110 foot jump, which is the biggest mountain bike jump in the world right now. Please subscribe!

let’s see what the wind’s like down on the big one this right now is not what you want look there’s dust it’s quite bad yeah has it been bad the whole time no the thing is it’s super Gusty like it comes and goes day three a dark Fest another you mean wind Fest wind Fest it’s another very windy day bit bitow oh my God oh my goodness I’m yet to jump the 90 footer even though I really came here to do 110 footer and it’s taken 3 Days To not even hit it so I’m hoping in this evening session Tom I Dead’s going to tell me top to bottom hitting the 90 the twisty wizard the big left hit that I haven’t done yet this year the rest of the week to do the 110 so this video is very much the quest to hit every jump at darkfest the well the running for that has a huge 50t step down that I’ve not done either so there’s actually look at that if you haven’t looked at it yet good point all right done I want to do this so badly how many people have done it in the world 12 no not that I think it’s like eight of us in yeah so did you just jump straight on the shark fins up there yeah so one of the burms the right shark fin you go over the back of that one okay jump straight in and then cuz that looks like a fast turn no breakes right and you pump around it like try and gain speed wow alas is on the landing there it’s a road Gap that’s like significantly set back and it jumps it diagonally so it’s two roads really yeah still not as big as the Hardline one mate so yeah true but the Hardline one’s the Highlight really of Hardline this is just a setup this is just access but if you imag 110 in a bik park it’s huge no one would ride it so as much as I came here extremely confident and up for it with an entire week whereas last year it was just two and a half days I can’t help but feel like the wind has hampered my chances of ticking everything off in a like nice controlled manner I imagine the wind will die at some point whether it be at 6:00 a.m. 7:00 p.m. and it’s going to be a mad rush to jump everything and I’m just going to have to be in that crew all right so you’ve jumped this land good just absolutely breakless bomb and then sail how you doing Brendan right dog it’s too windy to ride so I’m just looks like you can fly to the right I’ve lost my voice a bit screaming about how windy it is right everyone’s aborted the session but Tom and I are going to hit the road Gap into the 110 but not do the 110 big road C coming up wow that’s fast oh man I can’t believe that you’re going to have to like be no brakes no brakes oh it was a lot of brakes just to slow down you’re going to be speeding up well hopefully I’ll will be speeding up you will be thanks for that that’s another thing off the list yeah step up yeah we’re the last two people on course and then a game of chess then a game of chess I’m going to really Cruise yeah boy it’s just impossible to judge yeah all right Dogo I can I pull you ice lger good game of chest Tom see that post the that’s the landing of the mini road Gap that’s probably what we should look at I’m very nervous let’s go yeah boys woohoo yeah Thomas yes Tom you going for more oh God I’m stopping that’s too windy W the 90 felt amazing W I stopped for the Rockets thank you you were loose on the hip I went massive breaked yeah Thomas yeah I should have break yeah so I’ve hit everything from last year I just need to link it now yeah then we got the 110 at some point this week always like what wi what go yeah here we go top to bottom come on feels windy woo here we go come on that was windy all right mate let’s go yes yes it took three days but I’m in the top to bottom gang now the P t2b Squad Noy thanks to Thomas thank you Thomas not a problem mate I think he’s Keen to going and do some 110 run-ins now do a few 110 o just to put that out there decent and I’m going to probably just get used to that 90 cuz I’m riding it like a bit of a wrong so I’m actually going to break and pop it a bit I think which is what you did right um honestly I did one single brake tap and then went pretty neutral off the lip but I think you can also go slow and pop it depending on what you prefer cool but I think go neutral it’s sick that everyone talks to each other and everyone has an opinion but everyone’s bikes do roll at different speeds and everyone weighs a different amount look at the bush down there I’m just going to wait I’m going to wait come on boy dropping in Thomas yeah boy little break waa Tom you maniac Bo W yeah dude woo yeah yeah boys what did you do split the 90 I couldn’t actually believe it with my own eyes I was way too close to you I was way we were two up on the step up right I’m still Keen to get comfortable on the 90 let me just confirm over here and quite in secret are you going to jump the 110 maybe if I the feel was good and the wind’s good okay I’m going to jump the 90 and stop on the hip and then film you yeah man and I might a little sorry mate I’m filming Tom do the 110 come up here come up here I’m really nervous for him yeah Tom yeah Thomas no no way what no he flipped it first run of the Year perfectly he’s the king what you are by far the craziest guy ever Tom another 500 a.m. start in the name of Big Air this is how big the coffee is Dr for the Big Air apparently there’s bad weather coming in today a lot of rain later so I don’t really know what this morning will bring I think it’ll be a mad rush for everyone to get up there start riding top to Bottoms I’m pretty hungry to jump that 110 to be honest s trail crew doing the last minute bit of watering I think the fact that there’s still hanging Mist means that there’s been no wind all night conditions are finally on our side just the hour the hour of the day is not I want to crank into a train if that’s a possibility he’s going to go a bit faster cuz the Air’s Den so tell I’m going to go exactly the same speed all right wow how did we case that so much it’s that much lower what the hell yesterday went like 5 foot further it’s insane how much dense there isn’t it I think I’m going to go first Tom to figure out my own speed if you know what I mean I’ll follow you then you you don’t have to yeah I’ll follow [Music] w [Music] [Music] [Applause] [Music] getting it you mad man so it’s now 10 to 7 done more full laps of this track than I ever have in a day and I’ve probably so far in the last two days matched what I’ve ever done so although a lot of people have been here a few years and for at least a week each time I feel quite Victorious already it’s just still The 100 10 filter to go and some tricks on the step up I am a trick guy I want to do some tricks here but right now I feel about as good as I could about these jumps you know next one to tick off is a 360 on the step up yeah boy let’s see what a flip on this first rocket feels like woo [Music] [Music] oh [Music] [Music] [Music] it’s my first ever downhill bike 360 I wanted to do it last year didn’t have the balls all the time all the time I wanted to do it all this week didn’t have the conditions that’s a big one for me everyone else is sort of like oh yeah cool 360 bro but um St that I’m just heading up to do another 360 on the step up and it’s the first time this year I’ve stood by this step down which leads into the Rockets like when you jump this and don’t walk it it just feels like a fast little drop look how big it is there’s the landing SI thanks well after a successful morning doing tricks on the full course Sam’s decided to book everybody a pirate ship back to the jumps in a bit we weren’t really supposed to ride today cuz of the bad weather forecast hence the pirate ship yesterday evening but inevitably we’ve woken up and there’s no wind well it’s not too bad it is the morning so the air moves up the valley which is a headwind naturally for the 110 but I’ve just done a top to bottom it felt okay a little bit slower than yesterday but Tom’s just gone up to the top telling me he’s going to do the 110 so I’m going to watch it and then maybe I’ll man up but he’s still the only person to jump it and I feel like there’s a reason there’s people here who have done that jump before aren’t queuing up to do it and I don’t know why so I’m being cautious but I’ve made enough of a deal about it that’s why I’m here really isn’t it to jump the biggest jump in the [Applause] world no no no no no no no no no no all right Tom Tom are you all right Carson Carson you just hang tight I broke for sure what’s the position you can lay now you’re not moving good job flip it mate so glad you guys didn’t flip it was it the headwind situation we said about thicker air morning air so you went you felt like you were going faster then when you flipped it the other night yeah I’m glad I didn’t follow you but poor Carson he’s [Applause] hard no no one’s animal W so I think that’s kind of put a down well certainly put a downer on the morning but that also means that the two people that have jumped the 110 this year IAD and technically Carson are both out of action Carson’s definitely smashed his ankle off and uh both their brakes are completely broken so Tom can’t ride now so yeah massive healing Vibes to Carson and this quest Quest continues I feel like I potentially Dodge the bullet there cuz I was yeah that would have been me that doesn’t bode well for up there does it no not at all I wouldn’t worry too much about those other ones you think no one’s going to hit the 110 I wouldn’t think so I wouldn’t be wanting to do it today cuz I was breakless then and case the Rockets yeah same Tom’s made a miraculous recovery swapped out his bike for obvious reasons same as if you crash and smash a helmet and is my last day um and we just cased the Rockets which means it’s a headwind again and Tom will say from experience not the best idea to go for those ones at the top oh well it’s still an hour and that’s not a lot here whoa [Music] yeah yeah two guys jumped it Alias and be M they both said they went 110% full speed and both of them like just cased it to be honest my goggles are too tinted I couldn’t see it got dark but maybe I missed a chance it’s gone from being a fun challenge to like one that I feel Mega pressure with down in like sort of by the 90s it’s like a kind of small Tailwind but actually not too bad at all here yeah be interested to see what the wind’s like on the 90 today whoa wow yes yeah ta yeah bro there’s not many people riding and all the ones are saying it’s definitely not a good time to jump that jump Alias jumped it last night I think for the 110 specifically you need every bit of speed you can get and obviously the mornings are always a little bit slower because the the air is thicker so I think mat if you want to want to do it the if you want to do the 110 go for it tonight yeah tonight’s the night maybe and like if it’s too windy then don’t do it which is my last night so much pressure Matt’s giving himself a hard time cuz he woke up with it with the like ah I want to hit it kind of thing yeah but he needs understand that these jumps take time and effort wa you know I’ve just driven up here for one final look and it’s the same story The Air’s moving out the valley it’s a headwind no one’s really riding I don’t really know how to word it I’ve I can’t believe this video is going to end like this but the quest to jump the world’s biggest jump continues me and that bike will get over that jump this week no one really has so I feel a bit like a fraud entering into it so certain I was just going to take off on that takeoff and land somewhere on the landing and I’ve never done it everything happens for a reason I guess I had a bad feeling and dodged a big bullet with car and Ice dead crashing and then the Stars never really aligned beyond that so maybe this year’s darkfest wasn’t so much about the 110 hey but thank you for following along I will do that jump Legends
