FINALLY RIDING THIS DIRT JUMP HEAVEN!! GORGE ROAD TRAILS
Ойын-сауық
Gorge Road Trails is an icon in the world or MTB and BMX dirt jumping. In the heart of Queenstown New Zealand this legendary riding location has everything from beginner and intermediate lines all the way up to some of the steepest and most technical jumps and transfers in the world! Riding these lines on my dirt jump bike felt amazing and the POV shots are unreal. Shout out to the locals who spend so much time digging and maintaining these jumps for us to enjoy, we really are lucky to have such hard working people in our sport! Good luck to the Slopestyle riders at Crankworx Rotorua!

Casual Matt showing us a safari Porsche when a Porsche 918 passes AND a Ferrari F40 🤤😍
My friend absolutely adores you, and painted his bike similar to yours and has your signature
This has to go down as my all time favourite youtube clip. Period. I've walked these jumps many times and almost had a panick attack contemplating what it would take to jump them. I pictured Greek gods on chariots sailing over these things. The guys that do it are a different breed. I wish I was reborn as one of them. Seeing them on here and you doing them with such skill... I feel so privileged. To switch from line to line like you're a passenger is insane. You're commentating the whole way!!! I seriously feel that Dream track and Gorge are some of the most difficult or maybe extreme jumps I've seen you do. If you're still in the area, check out Queenstown Hill. There's gold in them there hills....
These past few episodes are like watching Matt do a skills camp! Awesome!
Rod's & his bro are a bit of a legend in the MTB community - has put heaps back into local trails and community
I’m from New Zealand and I love coming to these jumps
Hats off to the builders that's a ton of work
what a place. What a crew for maintaining them and thankfully still able to run after they nearly got shut down a few years back.
This place is unreal. Definitely going on my bucket list.
having just come back from NZ hearing luc say " aw true" was such a good kiwi flashback
when ever you ride trails i find myself pumping IRL and feeling the jumps out even though im probably never going to ride them in my life time
Bro over the last few videos I have never seen you so happy you look like your having the time of your life 🤟😎 good for you
Those jumps are INSANE. Like biking heaven.
So amazing!!! Thanks for posting this, massive kudos and respect to the builders and maintainers of this unreal set of dirt jumps
your friend has tast, nice little Flex ;D F40 Legend you Legend
We need like a 30 minute extended episode from there man! The best line of jumps in the world! Been wanting to go there since Drop Inn New Zealand 🤙
I don't know if Matt is trolling us or not. To say that he didn't notice the 918 and the F40, specially for a car enthusiast that has owned a Performante, a GT3, and currently owns a 600LT, is just nuts.

This is got to be the sickest trails I've ever seen you show on your channel everything everybody can ride with every combo you can imagine.. freaking sick
I love the way you’re doing these videos, Matt just like the old days🔥🔥🔥🔥
I really enjoyed the last videos from nz, hopefully there are some more to come!🤘🏻
Omg this is incredible we need more videos on this
Yes bro! I knew this video was gonna happen. Arguably one of the sickest dj spots in the world
This was my favourite video of yours last time you came here. So I'm stoked that you're back.
I mean this is probably the best combination of public jump tracks ever to ride in one day. Oh my god. Must be sooo good. "Oh you wanna ride Money?!" 😁 EPIC 🤘🤘🤘
tks Matt that was the best Gorge video I have ever seen, going thru the lines etc. I was there in 2006 when the place was just in the beginning, dreaming of getting back there someday before I get too old! haha.
That Porsche is sick and i can’t get over it 🔥
Loving the POV of maybe every jump at those trails.
That place is a piece of heaven!🙏🏽
So sick. They look hella epic. And the MTB line.. looked stupid fun. daaamn.
I need to see more of those downhill jumps, those are massive.
Well Done Sir! Your subscribers have been waiting for this moment too.
Those spots are so insane! This vlog is straight 🔥
After watching this i realised my quads and hammies were tensed up from pumping into the ground while i was sat down “relaxing” i think i might have ptsd from a recent jumps fail. 😂 Im happy to accept these kinds of jumps aren’t for me now. Only took 1 collar bone and 10 ribs to learn that lesson. Hope you stick around for crankworx rotorua.
Sooo nervous just watching you jump these! That was an Awesome adventure! thanks for taking us along :)
I started riding in Queenstown four years ago, really miss it after watching this video! sick place !
yesss matt love it. I need to ride this, You down? love the videos love the gear love helfare love everything LEGEND!!
went to queenstown a couple months ago and it was the best experience. I went and saw those downhill jumps you were hitting and that alone was the coolest thing other than skiing and the views there. coming from australia it was amazing
one of the best videos i have seen
NZ represent! Looks like you are having an Epic time on our shores mate!
Inspirational great riding guys
Good to see Emmerson feature in the video. Such a nice dude.
love how matt’s really getting into the freeride side of mtb
The height and air time leaves me in awe. I did 5 foot high 180's when I was younger and thought I was the man. This is just.....wow.
hell yeah man NZ is paradise
That trail is so insanely cool.
ive been riding at cardrona for years and I met you in gore ages ago but i love the car, I have seen it up TC in the winter
Hey matt just wanted to say I love you and you content and would love to see you at Woburn with jono on mini bikes again sometime😂
That trail is an absolute dream
That last doube on dream line is ludicrous
yesss a good gorge road video sick🔥
I have watched this video 4 times and I can’t get enough of it also for a video you should meet up with Sam pilgrim and hit these jumps or any jumps 👍
Liked the video 3 seconds in purely because it’s such a legendary bucket list spot.
I could watch Matt jump these trails forever
Coolest trails I’ve ever seen
I live in nz and I love your videos so much bro
Such an epic video
dude this is such a sick edit man..! Dream track really is an absolute beast! .. And the absolute sculptural work of art that is Gorge Road, it's so insane to think of the work that's gone into it, & so crazy to think that it was almost lost to the world were it not for Rod Drury saving it.. also the flex with the 918 & the F40 lol just casually ;) .. Given Rod founded a now 13B USD company, i dare say there's probably a McLaren in there somewhere too most likely haha! Of all ridiculous sports cars worth more than i earn in a 10 year period lol, a McLaren would be my favourite, not just cos theyre epic cars but it was first started by Kiwi legend Bruce McLaren.. Such a pity Christchurch hills had the fire just before our first Crankwworx summer series, that new DH track looked sick! woulda been sick to see ya on that maybe, & towed in by Blenki down some other DH or Matt Begg down Ozone, or maybe down the Mt Hutt trails.. Anyway sick vid as always!
Reminds me of Woburn sands in the uk, living in Dunedin I'll have to head over one day check it out looks unreal
Sick 🤘
Lovely
Remember watching Isted hit these - they look awesome all over again here!
Wish jamie and ben could come with, sick video
couldnt stop my head bobbing with the jumps on this one!
Are we gonna act like a F40 wasn’t casually driving by at 0:50

No way! I only just saw that. So sick
I want to ride anything and everything in this video 🔥. Matt i would like to see some side static shots of riding which will be a different and cool angle from what u normally have apart from ben filming with these lines ❤️🔥
To all the people amazed by the number of nice cars, Queenstown is known for having a lot of car guys and rich people haha still really cool though
best rider ever
You should come check out Nelson nz so sick mtb tek. Love you videos
Gawd damn the f40 in the background is crazy
Very nice 👌
918 and F40 in the first minute, that's some start to a KZread video Matt
What an unreal spot
stop it...content creators like you are the reason people aren't watching the tv anymore. love your work. thanks.
i thought these jumps got torn down? amazing to see them still standing!
Yoo dude, you know there’s a jam today at gorge road, at 6 I think it is 🤟 it would be sick to see you there
Those jumps are massive fair play to who built them
Wild place, I’d imagine there is more feet of dirt vertically than horizontal there, lips and landings everywhere
damn the 918 and the f40 is insane
yeahhhh dudeeee nice brah
Come to Lismore Park in Wanaka Matt! You'll be frothing bro 🤟🏽
you should do a video of the bike part where mcgazza fest took place I would love to see you do the whole trail.
I can not believe i missed you by literally less than 2 weeks
This is my local dirt jumps, wish I knew you were there would have come for a huk 😂
best jumps
I never realized these videos are chest mounted. Interesting the difference in vibe you get vs a head mount.
When a rider like Matt is towed in, is he watching how fast the leader goes AND how much they pop? Or do you just assume the leader is doing a regular amount of pop unless they say otherwise?

Wow
Matt "cactus head" Jones, bringing you the NZ Porsche dirt conversion to satisfy and convert you dirt aversion. Gotta say, that Marin is purring like a Persian 🐈⬛❤😂
Too bad Jamie wasn't along to pull Matt through some of those lines. Also, I'm thinking that it may have been Matt's first time ever saying "Ooo, I've hit my head on a cactus" (11:03) This seems like it's just an incredible trip for Matt. Just an epic month or two.
THE 918!!!
That looks so fun but if I was in Matt’s position I wouldn’t dare do the jumps he does 😂😂😂
💪
A quick crowdfund to get Jamie a ticket there, so he can resume carrying the channel ?
I wish Ben got to see and ride this, and take the inspo back to the HellFarm.
is it the best place for dirt jumping in the world? I think so. Insane vid!
The Gorge Rd trails owe me a right femur.
I could be wrong but I thought I remembered hearing something about it closing a couple years ago
