14:07 - Whoa, dude! Did we just go full on Peter McKinnon, or what?! Nice cinematography! Great use of b-roll. The sound is awesome. I love the music selection, too. And then, of course, the plot twist! Also, it is so nice to see even seasoned riders coming up on features that challenge and even frighten them. This video was so freakin' relatable! It has been well worth the wait. I love the leveling up you're doing in your work, Alex! You are truly coming into your own with this stuff. Also, nice leaving us with a cliff hanger.

How you laugh at everything is one of the best things about this channel! I've been enjoying all these Berm Peak cameos.

"Every rider is different, each with their own unique experiences and riding styles that shape the lense through which we see trails." Very well said. Never even thought of it this way but it's so true.

Seth didnt said it all, “theres no such thing as jinx, because I believe in you”

Worth the wait. Thanks for taking the time you wanted.

Honestly, I struggle with a similar problem. I recently bought a new bike and it seems as if I’m less comfortable riding and jumping my new Nike than I am my old one (which is less nice markedly). I think you just need to start somewhere you are comfortable, and just work back up incrementally. You will find that it is easier to progress when you have already done things. Keep trying!
