Good rewind. I assume that this is related to the longer, lower, slacker, longer travel, NON fat, niner conversation going around? Yes?

All killer, no filler. I'd like to see more of these types of videos with actual riding and no goggle shots, hero shots, putting on shoes shots, walking out of the garage shots, eyeing up line shots, sunrise shots, sunset shots, putting the bike in the truck shots, driving to the spot shots...

I don't get the "destruction" part. In fact, I think it's out of place here. The guy is cleaner and faster than most of us, if not al.

The riding is pretty sweet, but I think we have been spoiled by ones like Bryn Atkinson shredding like a loony, or George brannigan *shudder* and this is pretty tame by comparison. Still there is some sweet cornering in there woot

I agree. this was one of the first raws that left me feeling unfulfilled. just seemed like the bike wants to roll everything and not get airborn. even in the corners it seems like he is working so hard. gear riding non the less but just didn't get me stoked the way raws normally do.

The reason you did not like this video is because of a condition called "bias." More specifically, "29er bias."

he's ripping harder than 99% would on anything smaller, and id bet if this bike wasn't out yet and no one knew he was on a 29er there wouldn't be a single neg comment....

I've got a Following on order. Dang this video made me excited for that bike. It certainly helps that Mr Strobel rides bikes like I dream of riding them.

fuckin' hell! i'm so excited for my following's imminent arrival...i've peed myself a few times in anticipation. theoretically, i (we?) should have mine this month--i imagine you're in the same boat? ;-)

it's a real shame that owning it won't immediately upgrade my skill set!

I can tell you that owning one really DOES upgrade your skill set! Perhaps not to Sir Strobel´s level, but certainly a fair bit! I got em both. The FOL and the The INS. Love it!

Actually Bob, I believe you'll find these trails off exit 27.5 near Mt Cougarnuts, Port Bellingvueworth, Washington
