Off topic comment. Is your back tire on backwards?
Good eye! Was a hastily changed tire before the trip. Goes backwards real good. Haha!
Really good video. I've now watched it a couple of times now.
What trail is that? It looks like Adobe Jack and maybe Javelina?
Thanks very much, glad to hear you enjoyed it and hopefully offered a couple worthwhile tips. You are correct. WE stayed at a really cool Airbnb right next to the trail in the cul-d-sac there.
this was great, thanks for all the useful tips on climbing!
Thanks for watching and glad it was helpful.
Really good insight here and great example cases. Also good to hear best shifting and seat post position approaches.
Glad it was helpful! We appreciate the feedback on what was helpful to ensure we keep offering useful tips and not overlooking other useful things. Thank you!
I’m 57 soon and just got my first full suspension bike after 15 years of riding a hard tail. Today I tried a climb that beat me every time on the hardtail and although it still beat me today, I got up a lot more of it. I’m probably being a bit hard on myself though as the climb was a bit steeper and looser rocks than what you had here. I still didn’t like being beaten lol. I’m going to watch the downhill one now as I don’t know how to go faster than slow down steep loose rock tracks. Or am I being hard on myself again? I’m old, and don’t want to break bones lol
That Dodger inspired jersey is fire!!!!!!!!
Thank you Miguel! It's a one-time run, so get one in our store while you can.
@@TheLoamWolf You can take the boy out of SoCal, but you can't take the SoCal out of homeboy! Ordering one now!
Orale!
Can you do the same with flat pedals? Stand up and pedal. Because you can’t really pull on the pedals.
There are techniques to help be more efficient with flat pedals and get some up-stroke power, so yes you can still climb tech with flats, however there is a undeniable advantage when it comes to pulling up on pedals that you are attached to. We’ll try to make a flat pedal stroke tips video in he future.
@@TheLoamWolf Thanks. Yes, flat pedal tips would be great!
I have absolutely no problem pulling with flat pedals. The pins on the pedals really stick to the bottom of the shoes. It’s all about how you place your foot on the pedals.
Great video and good advice. There are a lot of riders grinding while sitting, and others that will stand and balance their weight front-to-back to maintain traction. Sometimes you have to do both but they are definitely different skills. I find that climbs are easier now than when I started because the gearing now is just incredible; trying to climb 20 years ago took a lot more leg power than it does now. We also had bar ends. Yeah, we need to bring back the bar ends.
Haha. Ohhh boy, I remember having anodized Onza bar ends on my hardtail! What an era.... Things have definitely changed, mostly for the better. Thanks for watching.
You can build strength in the core muscles that allow the upper body to "float" by practicing twerking, its fundamentally the same motion. 👍
Great point! I'll have to give that a try for a future video. 😂
