Last Whistler Summer Getaway This Year

Enjoy some clips where we recently spent a few days in Whistler, BC, Canada with some good friends, staying at the WorldMark Cascade Lodge. The trip was the perfect mix of relaxation and adventure.

We made the most of the pool, then hit the local trails on our mix of electric rides, from e-mountain bikes to an electric skateboard and scooter. Whistler’s trails are always a blast, and riding them on EVs made the experience even more fun.

We also explored several beautiful parks and lakes, with Lost Lake being a highlight of the trip.

All of the footage was captured using my Meta Glasses and HoverAir X1 ProMax, which made it easy to film hands-free and from unique perspectives.

Whistler Vacation September 2025 Highlights

Last week my wife Nicole and I had a mini Vacation up in Whistler BC for three nights, we stayed at the WorldMark Cascade Lodge which is one of our time share locations we really enjoy heading out to. Whistler is so much fun with so many trails for just about anyone. There are lots of paved easy to ride trails, destination single track type trails that can take you just about anywhere in the area, and of course some crazy downhill runs for the Kamikazes out there.

Of course there is also Whistler Village with a variety of shops and eats from simple cafes to fine dining. We met a nice couple on our trip and where lucky enough to get a guided tour from Aaron who led us to Brandywine falls which ended up being a 35 mile round trip. I did record a bunch of video that included using my Meta Glasses, Insta360 X4 and HoverAir X1 ProMax. Enjoy the beautiful scenery mostly as we traveled the many trails to our destinations.

Whistler Creekside Vacation April 2025 - GetFitOver40

Last week we had a really nice mini vacation (4 nights 5 days) in Whistler BC Canada, we actually stayed in our WorldMark Timeshare Resort just outside of Whistler Village located in Creekside. It's a really nice loft condo on the side of the mountain overlooking Alpha Lake and it sleeps up to 8 people so we did have a few guests come and stay with us for some of the time.

One of our favorite things to do in Whistler area is ride around on electric vehicles, my wife usually rides the eBike and I usually ride my EUC but this time I also brought my Electric Mountainboard and had a lot of fun on that one too!

So you are going to see a lot of trail riding recorded by a bunch of different cameras, most from my HoverAir X1 ProMax AI flying selfie drone, some from my Meta Glasses and I also flew some of my FPV drones. My Avata 2, my BetaFPV Meteor65 Pro 04, and my BetaFPV Pavo Pico with DJI 04 Air Unit.

If you want to see what the trails in Whistler look like there is a lot of that going on in this video, mainly we stuck to the paved forest trails but we did ride a loop to Lost Lake and then to Green Lake which is more dirt and gravel.

Hope you enjoy the beauty of Whistler and Creekside.

Whistler and Birch Bay Summer Holiday

My wife and I just came back from a wonderful trip to Whistler BC Canada where we stayed 5 nights, then we traveled a few hours to Birch Bay Washington US for 3 more nights.

We stayed in our WorldMark Timeshare which is always very enjoyable and invited up some good friends and relatives to come and join us for part of each trip. It was a lot of fun being able to spend some of our vacation time with good people!

It was a vacation first and foremost but I like to document my trips al least to some degree with video. So I am able to share parts of the vacation with everyone using my Meta Glasses, HoverAir X1 Selfie Drone, Insta360 X4 and GO2 cameras and even a drone shot of me playing around flying my mini Pavo Pico FPV Drone around the hotel in Whistler.

I hope you enjoy the video of our various walks, outings and just simpel hotel lounging around. If you are thinking of going for a vacation in Whistler or Birch Bay, this video may give you a bit of an idea of what you can expect.

Head Tracking with the DJI Avata FPV Drone - And Some Other Fun Stuff

I always have so much fun either flying around my First Person View DJI Avata Drone getting that feeling of actually flying, or getting a similar feeling riding my KingSong S22 EUC on trails and in traffic. I know it is a lot different watching versus doing but hopefully this video gives you a bit of an idea on how that feels. Special thanks to my HoverAir X1 Flying Camera Drone and the Ray-Ban Meta Camera Glasses for capturing what it looks like riding an EUC (Electric Unicycle) from different perspectives.

When flying my DJI Avata FPV Drone, I was using head tracking with the motion controller which allows me to control the flight path using the motion controller, while at the same time being able to look around in various directions while still flying which ever direction the motion controller was pointing towards. It does take a bit of practice as at fist it feels like you should be going where you are looking, but this is not the case. This setup allows for more of a "manual controller" look to the video as you can circle an object and center it much better in the camera view than using the motion controller on its own.
