It's actually awesome that 3 professional riders take the time to do this just for the sake of helping others. Thank you very much, guys. If you find it interesting, Could you elaborate more about "pushing down through your feet". When I go through fast rocky sections, my feet come off the pedals all the time, specially my no-leading foot, no matter how much I drop my heels.
I personally experienced rock roll slide while slightly braking, realizing to release the brake , I save myself and the bike. Going forward I’ll practice the peak & push. In the past I typically stand tall to “peek” to see if something is rollable or dropable……
After just rolling down a vertical face I can report the technics described here were used. It was at least higher than my bike length and I didn’t want to fall off the face. Accelerated fast off the bottom and caught up with Shawn ( our ride leader) that showed me the drop in.
Appreciated hearing some new ways of thinking about steeper rock features but two things: How about that "G-out" at the bottom when it's an abrupt transition ie. how to keep from looping out with correct body position? Also, can you do something like this but on steep, long, loose loam where the traction isn't so good? I know it's kind of advanced stuff but I honestly can't find any good content on that sort of thing. Thanks!
I love everything about your videos! Really glad that you share your experience in such an understandable way. Could you, fellas, do a video on how to setup "natural" corners high? Like the ones you race on raw trails in Europe.
So I know you guys have covered cornering a bit, but wondering if you can cover a bit more about braking points, modulation and exit speed in detail. I've noticed that by working on my body position I can have more traction and carry more speed through corners, but there is a lot of times where I hit a tipping point in a corner depending on the sharpness/support that I have and end up dragging the brakes out of feeling like I'm going to go over the side. Especially unsupported or lightly supported turns. Maybe this is a bit more advanced or a video for down the road, but just giving some feedback. Good luck at the first EWS, appreciate you guys doing this!

Full commitment from Jesse explaining skidding, that was actually kind of gnarly
Anything for the tube
We need some “Commit or Eat Sh*t” stickers and shirts 😂
We'll add it to the list
I will watch everyone of your videos just to see Jesse carving those turns like he’s on skis in the intro, it’s so good! Good luck today all.
Must be in those hips he got!
That OTB was awesome. Couldn't help but notice that you got lucky: your Dropper came in looking for a secondary sneak attack.
haha we couldn't stop laughing at that one.

I would like you guys to do a video of the afterparty when you all podium this week. Go MGM go! Good luck this week!
hahaha full party vlog coming up.
Thanks for the videos. I love the break down of technique that most of us over look. I find I get something out of each video.
These are kick ass tips, friends! Thank you! I'm gonna send this to allllllll my friends working on rock rolls!
Thank-you! We hope there's at least a one tip in there for those looking to learn!
Great work you guys, can we get a proper breakdown of the Scandiflick?
Yes! That's on the list.

Can we have a tutorial on rock gardens and root/rock hopping? Great video btw
Good idea- I think Jesse could lead us on this one!
your videos are very informative.. thank you

Exactly what I needed!! Thanks guys
We are stoked to hear that!
A video on body position/braking/technique on loose steep stuff would be sweet. keep up the good content!
We can definitely do a video of super steep stuff and how to ride it.
I love everything about your videos! Really glad that you share your experience in such an understandable way.
Could you, fellas, do a video on how to setup "natural" corners high? Like the ones you race on raw trails in Europe.
We could do that! We are going to Europe early for the next block of racing and we can find some corners then to do that on.
Jesses crash was hillarios!
Nice video again!
Good thing the guy can take a hit!
a how to and how not to ! all in one great video guys keep em coming
We will!
Two words - Lee McCormack's hinge.
Great vid, peak and push is a great tip I'll definitely be giving that a try!
Awesome! We are glad to hear that!
Very well presented. Great stuff.
What's camera you're using at :58? Some really bizarre artifacts going on.

I feel like we kind of covered that in our video of "Getting Critical" with Miranda. But we can do a more in depth cornering video.
@@MGMAlternative just re watched and that's 100% true, guess I wasn't paying enough attention! More in depth is always cool by me though 👍
Hahaha that crash! XD
:)
Peak and Push and Peak and Push and Peak and Push and Peak and Push and Peak and Push
Don't you forget!
MGM? Sorry what does this acronym mean please anyone?
*Finally found a mtb gnarly skills channel.. just ❤️ the skill level ❤️ there’s ladies
Thanks!
Their last names- Melamed, Gauvin, and Miller
@@matthewlunn8238 Thanks.. Acronyms are for those in the know I am now one. 😂
Glad you found us!
"hardest rock faces in ur home town" ..me living in Germany without any.. -_-
I think you can find some!
Klar haben wir welche ;)
Jesse's camera is having a stroke at the beginning :)
Sometimes they have a mind of their own.
how to pump properly on trails :))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
Ok, we could try that one!
@@MGMAlternative yooooooo you guys are the best
Fun fact: rock rolls are easy!
just close your eyes and go.
