Bloody beautiful. I find that watching videos where there is speed over gnarly stuff,my speed increases and fear factor drops on my next ride,I think you just helped me along a bit.
Hey Lance, really enjoy your videos. After seeing a few, I realise you live in an architecturally designed house. Not quite Rodger Walker, but kinda that cool late 70s early 80s NZ funky house. The sort with random ladders to lofts in the ceiling space of an A frame! Ride on man!
Someone needs to be the voice of reason. Having said that I could do with a Graham to motivate me to push limits of jumping a bit more. Let’s see how much progression I can make when summer arrives in the northern hemisphere.
Nice work, I’m just North of 50 and slowing down on the crazy things. Don’t heal as fast as I used to and I don’t like being off my bike but I love that feeling when you land a jump nice
Been riding for about 7years, I am 43 and only just started doing jumps about this size, but have been getting bucked a couple of times and is putting me right off trying new stuff. Good video.
I know the feeling. Jumping is funny. Slow seems safe but coming short is never good. Speed can be your friend but if you come short at speed the buck is even worse.
Great work and good progression. Those jumps look decent and great that they progress in size. One little tip? I noticed in some of the jumps you Cased, you were compressing into the jump instead of popping off the lip. Try popping and pulling up off the lip to increase height and you may start clearing more gaps!!! Keep it up lance 👌
I do get nervous with jumps. Have had a few accidents, one quite serious. Never want to repeat that but the adrenaline rush of clearing a new jump is awesome
Best Day Ever MTB trying new stuff on my own is a lot more calculated and less “ just fuckikg send it “ lol... need someone around to drag you off the hill if you get messed up.
If you look at the slow mo of that awkward one you got, if you follow the path of that front wheel you can see that you inadvertently squashed it. Maybe it’s because you were nervous so a bit of a passenger but if you can just get some compression into the take off and time your pop a bit better you’d be a lot cleaner over that.
The jumps were easier. Just a matter of committing. Glencoe was pretty hard. Would love to go again and try in the dry preferably when it wasn't frozen cold. I think riding with others also helps your confidence. I was in Glencoe on my own on a rental so felt a bit more nervous.

Great work guys, I'm 52 and want to start hitting stuff like this, this just makes me want it more, Thanks for the inspiration
Thanks Martin. I think start small and progress slowly. The funny thing is I have done bigger jumps when younger but the fear is greater now.
Wrong side of fifty - what a nice phrase! Greets from austria & keep on sending it
Thanks for that. Been awhile since that video was made.
@@bestdayevermtb2 yeah, it just poped up in my feed :)

Glad to help.

Cool house until you want to stain the cedar weather boards. Lots of hard to access crazy triangles. That is before you want to paint the roof.
@@bestdayevermtb2 yeah I hear you. Time better spent on the bike eh! Thanks for making great content. Ride on!
Fantastic. I’m still trying to build the confidence to do gap jumps! That’s definitely inspired me
Fantastic Lance. Love the progression. Good to know when to stop. There’s always another day!
I know when to stop but I am not sure about Graham.
@@bestdayevermtb2 Graham is just an animal! awesome!

this is motivating..Thanks fellas, I'm 49 and just started "jumping". cyber fist bump and Subscribed!

I know exactly what you are saying. Some days I feel confident others not.

Awesome gents! Go the 50+ team! 👍 😉

Haha. I ran into you at rotorua today on the way up to corridor . Then 15mims later I had a big crash.lol
@@SjwNz08 hope you are ok. Graham went over bars today as well.

You are 100% correct. I know I need to do that but am clearly not. I worry on high speed jumps that I will pull up uneven and land sketchy
I love your videos.Greetings from Germany
Thanks very much. Would love to ride in Germany one day.
thats awesome Lance, keep progressing!
Nice riding, could see the nerves in the camera shake before the last jump. Great vid👍
I do get nervous with jumps. Have had a few accidents, one quite serious. Never want to repeat that but the adrenaline rush of clearing a new jump is awesome
@@bestdayevermtb2 I bet. I will leave the jumping up to you👍
Flippin good video mate ...enjoyed it
Thanks mate.
surprise channel find . subscribed !! love that fact you guys push each other
Thanks for that. I must admit when I ride alone I seldom try new things but feel much more confident with the guys around.

I tend to do that when I am nervous. If the jump goes well I tend to get better with each additional attempt. I know my technique is far from perfect.
Big smiles 50+ can jump!!!
Casing or not, you are still hitting more at WCRC than I am brave enough to do!
Thanks for that.
I have to say the sun is insane
Wrong side of fifty? Which side is that? Love a good jumps sesh. Just rode the Heckler and found it jumps great 👍
Are you going to get it?
Best Day Ever MTB can’t afford it 😪
@@Sportilium bugger☹
What was easier those jumps or glencoe black?

What trail at WCRC is the one with all the big jumps?
I think it is helta skelter
What track are you on for the road gap?
I think it is helta skelter.
