Cwmcarn
Downhill
I'll
be the first to admit here that this wasn't the fastest ever run at
Cwmcarn! Still, it clips along nicely and you get a great view of the
course in glorious technicolour. |
 |
The Hidden
Valley
A fairly fast descent with some tight turns and narrow spaced trees.
One of the highlights of the The Penhydd trail at Afan Argoed (The
Penhydd Trail was previously known as the 9Feet Trail) |
 |
The Nan Bield Pass
This very
slow and
technical descent in the Lake District is a real challenge all the way
down. This is not one of our usual fast videos, I'd need a foot more of
suspension for that! |
|
The Dragon's Back
Coed
y Brenin in Winter is just as good as it is in Summer. Some mud
splashing adds to the fun on this clip of the Dragon's Back.
|
|
Big Doug in December
A
quality 'descent' at Coed y Brenin which actually loses hardly any
height at all.
|
|
Garburn Pass
A
great descent to start the Three Passes Route (Garburn, Gatescarth and
Nan Bield).
|
|
Gatescarth Pass
This
one is a lot more dangerous than it looks. Just getting to the bottom
of here without crashing is something of an achievement. When Paul
shouts 'Alright Phil?' it's because Phil has just crashed in to the
back of him!
|
|
Lake Syfydrin
A
short, beautiful section of double on the fabulous outward bound
section at Nant yr Arian. Some lovely solid rock on this one.
|
|
Nant yr Arian Mark of Zorro
The
second half of the Mark of Zorro descent at Nant yr Arian. An old
favourite this one.
|
|
Gower Hillend Descent
Great
singletrack on the Gower Peninsula with a fabulous view. Paul
(Pictured) was shocked how much steeper it was in reality than he had
seen on our previous videos.
|
|
Gower Singletrack
Fast
route down towards the Hillend at Gower. Compare to the one below
titled Gower 2002, which we shot four years ago (clearly).
|
|
Nant yr Arian First Descent
The
first descent at Nant yr Arian will open your eyes to this great riding
location. Enjoy!

Black Run Glyncorrwg
The
Black Run is short but very sweet and there are plans to extend it. For
more video of this run and details of the brilliant Afan Adventures
Uplift service see Here.
|
|
Penmachno Final Descent
Starting
with some tricky switchbacks and ending in another long fast straight
this one is fast, if a little tiring by the end.
|
|
Penmachno Straight
Three
sections of high speed high-jinks on the new trail at Penmachno, near
Betws y Coed.
|
|
Penmachno Traverse
The
one with the crash.
Right Click with your mouse then select 'Save Target as' to save. Once
running hold Alt and hit Enter to run full screen!

|
The Wall
At
least I think it's the Wall... A brilliant day in January, we did so
many descents via the Afan Adventures Uplift service we lost track.
Look
out it's 100mb. As ever Right Click with your mouse then select 'Save
Target as' to save. Once running hold Alt and hit Enter to run full
screen!
|
|
Wharncliffe Woods
Wharncliffe
Woods is full of incredible steep descents which are a blast but
frankly look rubbish on helmet camera. There are also some mad fast
routes through the trees like this one. I almost impaled myself on a
broken branch to get this clip.
Look
out it's 65Mb. As ever Right Click with your mouse then select
'Save Target as' to save. Once running hold Alt and hit Enter to run

Helvellyn Descent of Lower Man
OK,
so this is a slow one for the top two thirds, but viewers were
complaining we never screened any technical stuff. So here it is,
defying death on Helvellyn, it's pretty anyway. For the feature of this
amazing ride see Hell's
Ridge
|
|
High Street 'Lost' Singletrack
This
section of Bridleway is easily missed as the obvious trail goes
straight over the top. Take the time to find the less ridden left turn
however and one of the longest natural descents around starts with this
beauty.
|
|
Nidderdale North
A
section of one of the hardest and best trails on the Nidderdale route.
|
|
Nidderdale Shooting House Drop
Finally
the new light camera let us film some of the classic downhills on this
epic ride. This is the last descent on the Nidderdale 1 ride, it
usually takes six hours to get back to here! I edited the boring gate
in the middle which is always closed DOH!
|
|
Matterdale Common
Not
a spectacular video this one, just a beautiful trail which is a bit
harder to go fast on than it looks. Lots of holes and rutts to catch
out the unwary. Speeds up a lot towards the end.

Been
meaning to film this descent for ages and it's a bit special. If you
haven't much energy left at the end of the Skyline Trail then that
would be a shame, because it's all about rocky jumps!
