Jesse, great instruction. Thank you for sharing your expertise and insight ! Bring on the next one. Oh, and the camera wipe at 8:44, pure skill and confidence going into the ramp !
loving this stuff. Really is an eye opener on what lines to look for. I don't think i would spot many (errr any) of those unless by accident or just following what looks obvious. Can't wait to take some of those thoughts out on the trail.
Thanks for the video Jesse- this is something I am often struggle with. I hear "inside line is faster" and then also hear "rounding out the corners gives you faster exit speed" both pieces of advice seem to be at odds with each other, however I suppose the best solution is "it depends on the situation". The example at 12:42 is great!
Exactly! It really does matter more about what is before and after the corner. I would say in general rounding out the corner is the best for overall riding, but for the fastest line it isn't always the best.
This is great. Fantastic content. Wish there was some way there could be a graphic that shows when you're hitting what brake, when you're pedaling, etc.
Killer content! If I watch it at 50% that feels about the right speed . So I guess I am 40% Jesse , eh? It would be interesting to see a similar style video comparison but between you different bike setups. Ala slayer vs instinct or something like that . Maybe on two different trails - one each suiting a bike vs the other. Would hopefully show the differences. Not that you are taking suggestions haha
Loving the videos so far! Honestly, between you, Yoann, and Remi, I'll probably end up having half of the Squamish trails memorized before even riding them haha. Random question: are you using the regular or the transition lens in your Smith glasses? If the transition lens, how do you like it? Cheers!
Haha then you'll be ready to rally when you do get to ride them! They are the transition lens! I really like them. It's nice just taking one pair of glasses and having the sun protection when in the open areas and then clear, mud protection when in the woods and it's darker.
I actually did think about that one but it was too wide and going around the tree made it too hard to angle yourself into the corner. It wasn't supported enough to take that line with more speed than the main line.
@@JesseMelamedMTB Solid insight. I only wish you had made this video before last year's Squamish Enduro - this was the last stage on the short course! My results were underwhelming - but two flats on two stages can have that effect!
Great video, every bike nerd loves the likes of it :) But I noticed you have the 38 up front, and I wonder, are you running the stock damper tune? If so, do you find you have enough high speed compression range to use?

These trail breakdowns are amazing! I think you've found a whole new career after racing, too.
I'm glad you are stoked on them! Definitely fun for me to do!
a tip: you can watch movies at flixzone. I've been using it for watching lots of of movies during the lockdown.
@Alonso Canaan Yea, have been using flixzone for since december myself =)
Jesse, great instruction. Thank you for sharing your expertise and insight ! Bring on the next one. Oh, and the camera wipe at 8:44, pure skill and confidence going into the ramp !
Thanks! I was a little worried about mud for this one so I had to make sure I tried to wipe!

All it takes is slowing down and looking!
The editing on these videos is getting wicked good
I appreciate that...learning fcpx and making mistakes caused me to out around 30 hours of editing into this one...
Yes Yes Yes!! Great explanation video again!! Can't wait for the race line!!!!
Uploading now!
@@JesseMelamedMTB oh hahaha, sorry it's too late here, will have to watch that one tomorrow......
Thinks I like about the corona-quarantine. 1. The new format from Jesse videos, so good and fun to watch. Awesome work 2. his beard
Haha definitely glad you like the content! Liking the beard is good too!
nice one again. will see this trail now with different eyes! Thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Innovative trail video, well done!
Thanks!

That would be some high tech stuff! But would be something really cool!
Yeeew ... 10x Jesse ! really fun to watch and great content with that insides about racing strategy ... priceless !
Awesome! I'm glad you enjoy it!
That beard is coming along nicely Jesse! Loving these videos.
I am working hard on it! Thanks!
Absolutely great video! And you are THE MAN. But get the razer man :))))
haha covid beard!
Killer content! If I watch it at 50% that feels about the right speed . So I guess I am 40% Jesse , eh?

40% me is all you want to be!
That would be interesting, but a little too back and forth I think. But that does give me a different idea, thanks!
Jesse Melamed could just be timed runs / same track / different days. Put to bed the 27.5 vs 29 question and become an internet hero!
This is great. I love this. More please...
Thanks! on it!
Bet Richie Rude is taking notes. Hear he wants the KOM on Angry M.
Heard that too, I should make sure I get it after this.
super good video! hope you keep on making them, learning a tonne
That's the plan!
THX Jesse. I would test some alternative lines on my home trails after this inspiration .
Awesome! I wish I could film there too to give you some more insight!
@@JesseMelamedMTB next time you are in germany 😅
Nice one!
Thanks!
Amazing!!! MORE!!!!
More to come!

@@JesseMelamedMTB Awesome, thanks!
Haha we've been watching the same channels
Great video! I like how you've structured it. It makes it really easy to follow.
It came together well, thanks!
Hey vids are awsome keep it up
Thanks!
Nice Jesse !
Thank you!
Curious are you still doing helmet cam? I find the chest mount doesn't give true
perspective of riders line to much of the image is of the bike.
Still appreciate the videos and the insight.
That's a good feedback! And I think you are right for line choice specifically. The helmet cam would make it easier to see the difference!
Jesse Melamed I think I like the chest cam as you can see the action of the bars and get a feel for rider input
A bit surprised that you did not take the Euro wide line into the corner at 3:22
I actually did think about that one but it was too wide and going around the tree made it too hard to angle yourself into the corner. It wasn't supported enough to take that line with more speed than the main line.

I'm pretty close on the HSC but I think it's enough.
I think you need your orange Instinct to match.😁
It's fun not to match sometimes!
Jesse which program do you use for editing?
I used final cut pro for this one.
that one dislike was #12 at the ews last year....
hahaha
I heard the beard saves 3 seconds.
I should shave it for my next race run!
@@JesseMelamedMTB you'll have to do a comparison!
Melavison
Haha yes!
Man, you are too fast. I have to watch this in slow motion to see the line you are taking
I found it hard to follow along as well when I was editing!
