Global Mountain Bike Network keep doing this kinda videos , cus wanna enjoy dirt jump in the safest way. Questions: how to build and ride step ups, doubles, tabletops ? Especific cuestion: is it safer to learn on big jumps ?( maybe for the reaction time in case of abort) chao
I've been curious about WHY some (maybe most) times dirt bikers flick their bikes in a weird sideways / horizontal position while taking off and then pull it back to normal, even the motocross bikers do it. Is it real-time correction thing or to clear the jump lower and faster? I'm confused because it looks like quite a bit of work Edit: I found out they're called whips
Good advice! I learned clearing jumps april 2017 in bike park Wales after watching your videos. The most important thing for me was an earlier tip: slow down and try to make height by actively jumping. This was a game changer. Now it is me jumping. Before it was my bike jumping with me on it, going too fast into the jump with more speed and sort of squashing it because I didnt want to go too far/high. That resulted in a case every time. Now Im in control! I can recommend ”popty ping” in BPW - some good jumps there to practice this!
Been researching how to jump a lot recently (since I completely suck at it) and this is exactly how every good MTB coach will teach you how to jump properly. Never been so excited to go find a stick and practice on flat ground lol.
Thanks guys can't afford a coach at the moment , this is a big help. Please keep up the tips. A little bit of detailed knowledge makes all the difference.
Great video guys - can't wait to start using your skills tuition vids when my new bike arrives! Loved the final scene with Blake talking and jumping at the same time - NICE
Awesome advice guys! I found i wasn't clearing some tables at my local trails, once I nail those manuals I will move onto jumping sticks to work on that timing... then hopefully I will be sending it like a pro 🤔👍🤟😁
Excellent! I once heard someone explain it in a way that you forget about your front wheel because if you have speed it WILL go into the air and only focus on the back wheel leaving the lip of the jump so it is less to think about while you are practicing
You guys rock! These tips have helped me with my jumping technique. Keep doing what you're doing... Your efforts are much appreciated and help us weekend worriers out!
Hey @gmbn I would love for you guys to make a video on how to crash. I realize it's not gonna be a pleasant one but I think it would be really useful for a lot of us riders working the limit. I broke my wrist really bad in the summer. Surgery and metal. I think I could have walked away a little less bruised if I have had some awareness of does and don'ts on crashing. Thanks for all this awesome content! Love it!
Great vid as I struggle with jumps and have had some nasty offs due to no second pop for the back wheel, and coming up short on gaps. I also then started tucking the back too early. Practice doesnt make perfect...perfect practice makes perfect, doing it wrong practice hurts...alot!
I'd been jumping well for ages warming up to do longer gap stretch out beyond my comfort zone as I reached the 4 th and most intimadatinng gap in the jumpline I over exaggerated the compression and launched forward with my hips and knees sending me head first and front wheel first into the down ramp, that was a massive crash, since then I've back off having made so much former progree, but I've had to go back and examine why I crashed and how I can fix it , this video breaks it down so well I will learn from it and hopefully conquer this dreaded gap, awesome stuff good tutorial
thats the key, POP - Pause - POP thankyou Neil & Blake 😀

Easier done than said. On the mountain biking track I like Whitetail Ridge, river falls wi, what I do on Jump #2 is I put my feet in front of pedals, lean back, prepare to lift, and sit back down and lean forward while in air. On this jump, i literally feel my front wheel hit the ground first. I like your ideas on your videos as they helped me with landing the tabletop jump at the same trail at the skills park with the manual.
Awesome explanation and Your trick with the stick is the hit! Very good acting, when You pretend You were new to jumping ... "was that a sweet jump?" "Yeah, well, kind ... ish" :))
Hey guys, great food for thought! Quick question though. A lot of my jumping is done on the DH bike. What’s your thoughts on technique there? Is it as important to keep more rear preload weight to get that pop out of the rear? Might be awesome to do a jumping vid on the big bikes
You have explained in short about going off sideways on jumps in other videos, any chance you can go into it in more depth? I have trouble with this...
Dammit guys, I could have used this 5 hours ago when I met a group of riders in a little jump-park they build tehmselves. I made a total fool of myself and hurt my wrists because I have no technique... :(
I can do a decent bunnyhop (with platform pedals) but i struggle with transforming it into jumps. It is so difficult for me to drive the front wheel into the air. I think it is because I try to do it lake the way you do manual on the flat ground. I get with my hips too behind the center of the bike before pumping the transition. I do not even think you should get your hips behind, just make a proper pump and then stand up and pull with the bars a bit and lean backwards with your back a bit. The steepness of the lips helps you with the front wheel, am I right? I will be countinuing with the practise, since I feel embarresed by being able to bunnyhop anytime on the flat but not clearing the jumps.....

Great to hear! Thanks for your support 🤘

@@pratikkore7947 That's basically showing off or having fun. No reason for it otherwise!
Awesome editing in this one! Practiced these skills today before even seeing the video!
Wow, I tried this on my ride yesterday and was wondering where the ground went. I had no idea I was doing it wrong all these years! Thanks guys!
Great to hear Cameron!!
I gotta find time to ride tomorrow and try this
I really enjoy your videos. In my 60's so a lot of the things are beyond my comfort zone but always learning. Thank you
@Steve Harding still alive ?
@@lordvoldemort1028 💀
Holy crap!!! I love that side by side slow/normal effect. I’ve never seen that. Well done gents. Cheers!🤘🏼😄
Slow-mo plus normal speed explanation is the most amazing thing I've ever seen thus far in online mountain bike tips/tricks
Really nice editing at 3:40
Cheers!
Nah Neil is just really talented at defying gravity and jumping slow
Awesome, this slow motion + stick really helps to understand what it is all about, in many previous vids technique was not shown so clearly as today
Great to hear Andrzej!
The editing on your videos really helps the effectiveness of the explanation. Nice work guys.

Best tutors on TH-cam. Great stuff!
Finally, a great jumping tutorial that really made me understand the concept. Great job fellas 👍👍
Great to hear Nuke!

Nice one guys!
Isn't this the equivalent of liking your own comment?
That rear view follow cam footage at the end was sick! Good advice too; I definitely need to practice that.

The editing of this video is amazing.
Great work with the slow-mo/real speed clips!!
really awesome editing to showcase and breakdown the riding along with explanation, more vids like this would be awesome!
2:40 RIP oh jumpy teachy stick :(
We will never forget him 😢

So awesome! Slow mo really really helps to visualize what i need to do. now i just need to practice! Thanks so much.
First time I remember seeing this video technique, where you combine the trailside person with slow-mo. Really cool and effective!

Mark Byrne spez makes a carbon one for under £1,000!
The editing is so cool! Thanks guys. Those videos with both of you guys on stage are my fav
I love that new play back thing you are doin. Its epic and perfect to explain the point. Keep it up and mix it up with different lines

#askgmbn how to jump when the landing is not in the jump axle (transfer or I don't know)
it's been long since we've seen one of those neil table one footers...
You have explained in short about going off sideways on jumps in other videos, any chance you can go into it in more depth? I have trouble with this...
Tomorrow’s ride will feature this.
Awesome vid as always!.... what mount did you use for the rear view cam at the end????
Thanks guys, great vid, is this windhill bike park?
I ve been practicing on 1 to 2 ft jumps but anything above I get scared. I feel I have mastered the small jumps.
0:29 EPIC
I see his legs are extended when the front tire pops up but his hips are still relatively behind bottom bracket. 3:27
Pls make more videos of how to jump
Nice vid guys 👏🏻 how wide is blakes handlebar?
Dammit guys, I could have used this 5 hours ago when I met a group of riders in a little jump-park they build tehmselves. I made a total fool of myself and hurt my wrists because I have no technique... :(
Haha, never there when you need us are we! We'll try be quicker next time 😉
It's all good, with this video I'll be the best jumper in the group next time I meet them!
2nd3rd1st bro same i fractured my wrist because I cased a jump yesterday
Damn Daniel, that sucks, get better soon. You race motorbikes, too?
2nd3rd1st no it was a little pit bike I had my fam is too poor so I resort to MTB thx I hope I can get well ASAP to hit it again
great video. maybe you should get a person who can sort of jump, but not very well and do a tutorial with them and see their progression.
Nice Video, Like and first comment🤘🤘
Cheers DH Rat! Glad you enjoyed it :)
Global Mountain Bike Network Can you subscribe to my channel, please?
Where was this filmed? Looks a good track
“Find something on the floor” 😂😂😂 made me laugh
Cool edits
