Thanks!
🤘🏾
Oh...! Just saw you gave me a SUPER THANKS!
🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
oh my lawd the sound effects on this one 💯💯💯 😂
Hee hee! Thanks Katyballz!
I can’t imagine the amount of work you put into this, but man, this is the best “how to” jump tutorial I’ve ever seen. The visuals and breakdown made me realize why I jump the way I do (bucked and front end heavy). Going to apply this to my next time out on the jump line. Probably asking for too much, but it would be neat if you did a “how to” drop tutorial in the same fashion.
Thanks! I hope it helps. 👊🏾
A drop vid could be cool. 🤔
Really useful video, thanks! I'm 65 and struggle with the traditional advice regarding jumping i.e. do a bunny hop. Your tips are spot on! Keep up the good work!!
Heck yeah, Peter! I hope this helps our jumps!
Great vid! I have been having trouble doing jumps and this vid pretty much made my life pretty easy!
Heck yeah! I hope it helps.
Hell yeah! Been waiting for this one, I need all the help I can get. Drops are easy, jumps are not. Love ya work mate!!
Thanks! Let me know if it helps you out!
@@mtb_alan Will do, hoping to get out to the trails this weekend. I tend to get stuck going sideways in the air. I think a lot of it is confidence, so I'll be sure to put these tips into practice to help with that.
for me its the opposite
@@DeadsetYT Sideways in the air is because you're pulling with your arms and one of your arms is stronger than the other. Push with your legs to get the pop.
Amazing vid! Thanks so much Alan, this really helped my jumping. Keep making awesome vids!
Thanks 🙏🏾. That’s rad to hear!
I've watched many a TH-cam video on jumping and picked up lots of tidbits but the part about where I have been looking put it all together for me. Almost instantly my comfort level has increased dramatically. Thanks for the great video.
Heck yeah, Michael! 🤘🏾
I have literally seen like 100 videos about jumping, But this one is by far The best one! The advices you are giving are so simple and intuitive but effective that jumping doesn't seems like a science any more :D Thank you!
Glad you found it helpful!
This is jump explanation that I am looking for. Thanks for your effort dude!! Good job!! :)
Right on! My pleasure. 👊🏾
Yesss this video is one of the clearest on TH-cam on Jumping an MTB. Great Advice on not sessioning everything at the same time
Thanks! 👊🏾
Dude this video was the key to me unlocking how to jump! I literally watched it, printed out some notes, and headed out to session jumps. It clicked right away. Thank you.
Heck yeah! This really gets me stoked. Thanks for letting me know. 👊🏾
Great video Alan!!! Loved the demo lab it gives you more of an idea like a blue print. I will definitely be using this info when trying to jump. Thanks!!! Look forward to the next one 🤙!
Glad you appreciated it! I was hoping a more "blueprint" style approach would offer something new. Hope it helps you out!
Great video Alan. The sighting tip was a great tip. Looking forward to putting them in to practice this weekend.
Sweet! Let me know how it goes.
Alan, you really do GOOD work. In the last year I would say I've learned the most useful stuff from YOU and the Kyle and April channel. Thank you, and keep it up.
Wow! That's a big compliment! Kyle and April do cool stuff! Thanks! Will do.
Excellent video! Well structured and explained. Looking forward to seeing more
🙏🏾
There are many great "how to jump vid", this vid is one of the best! Simple, concise, no fluff! Thank you for making it. Going to put these tips to work tomorrow...ohh boy!!!!
Thanks! I hope it helps! 👊🏾
I had the same initial thought. I am finally starting to break through in jumping and figured I can help my non jumping friends as it is super fresh. Last "session" I realized my legs were key and you nailed that. I had seen row from another video, so the simple tips you gave are great and now I am going to work on where I am looking, then more row, and make sure I keep using the legs. Thanks...
Awesome!
Congratulations on the explanation. I must have watched over 50 videos on how to jump but this one is by far the best and easiest.
Awesome! Hope it helps.
this was an amazing video! Keep up the good work man!
Thanks! Will do.
Great video! The 2 biggest takeaways I need to implement are "look to the sky" and "the row". Thank you for the excellent breakdown!
Glad it was helpful! 🤘🏾
Thanks for the fresh take. That was a great way of explaining it! I'm so glad it wasn't the same regurgitated "how to jump with a manual" that tons of other channels were posting.
Thanks! There are a lot of good resources out there from much better jumpers. I wanted to share how it made sense to me. :)
Super high quality video man! Great job! 🤘🤘🤘
Thanks!
dude your videos are super well made, love it
Thanks! 🙏🏾
Dude!!!!! You nailed it for me on the buck! I have always been looking down instead of ahead to where I’m going. Thanks man 👍🏼
Right on! I really hope it helps you out.
Seriously... you have the best tutorial videos I have found. Excellent production, and the graphics and explanations are first rate. Love the channel - thanks for all the work!
Aw shucks! 👊🏾
Awesome breakdown of the technique and absolutely fantastic production quality!
Thanks! 😆
Thanks Alan! Loved the stop motion animation and sound effects! Great job Dude!
Thanks!
Great video!! Can’t wait to take it to the jumps.
Thanks Frank! Let me know how it works out for you!
Absolute best how to jump video around, great help
Thanks! Hope it helps you out. 👊🏾
EXCELLENT VIDEO ALAN... Thanks for the MAD TIPS!!
My pleasure!
The stop motion animation is awesome! Another great vid. I need to session more often. This whole “work/pay your bills/responsibility thing is getting in the way of riding!!
I feel you. 👊🏾
One of the best tips on how to jump video I've seen man. Makes the most sense to me as a noob 👍 keep up the good work!
Nice! Glad to help. 👊🏾
Genuinely great tips, not heard some of these before. Shall definitely try them out and get back (hopefully in one piece)
Thanks! I hope they work and allow you to remain a single piece. 😆
Rad vid as usual! Gonna use that look up into the air tip!
Thanks! I hope it helps. 👊🏾
Excellent video!
Greatly entertaining and instructive.
Thank you.
My pleasure!
Great tips and awesome production!
Thanks Calvin!
Some of the Best MTB advice I’ve ever heard!! 🤯🤯🤯
Heck yeah! Hope it helps on the trail.
Alan I meet you at the Sedona Bike Festival and you were so down to earth thanks for the the content it’s very helpful
My pleasure! Glad you made it out to Sedona. What a crazy weekend huh?
Hi Alan. I used your jumping techniques from this video today on Partywave and Westridge and I got some unexpected air over a few lips on both runs. I have to say, your advise on this video worked very well. It was my first time in both runs and I followed the techniques in this video and it worked very well! Thank you! Felt good to get some air off these jumps as they’re very intimidating for a 52 year old guy like me! Thanks again!!!
Heck yeah, Omar! Thanks for the feedback. Stoked for you. 🤘🏾
Thanks for the video - Very helpful! - I can’t wait to hit Dodge Ridge CA this summer. Last summer I got my first full suspension bike, Santa Cruz Bronson, and at 60 years old I’m flying higher and farther than ever before in my life. I love skiing down the mountain fast at Dodge Ridge and now I’m totally hooked on riding my bike down the mountain FAST!
What a great sport - SHRED THAT MOUNTAIN!
Heck yeah! That's rad!
Yo Alan... mid way through the video and it's Exactly what I needed Right Now. So much better described than other how to Jump vids I've been watching, you really have a feel for the intermediate rider's mindset. A lot of "Experts" take some things for granted, Thank you. Also, loving the stop-motion! Can't wait to get back out on the trail and progress.
Heck yeah, Bryndon! Really good to hear. I was hoping that this episode would do just that!
@@mtb_alan Thanks for the response. and keep up the good work on the channel, I love the direction you're headed. Also, if you're ever wanna come check out some less polished trails... come check out the Wild West some time. Some fun trails that are off the SoCal Radar ;)
Kickass! Also great sfx. I lol'd on the scwhaw landing sound.
LOL! Thanks!
Awesome tutorial! Very creative and tackled most beginner/intermediate mistakes. Keep em coming! 🤙
Thanks! I m already making a list of other mistakes I make. 😆
@@mtb_alan haha just noticed on my previous video progression I'm guilty with not looking up and the dreaded dead sailor. Will try the look up and row tip on my next progression video. Thanks a bunch! 🤙
nice man, I just purchased skypark annual pass last month and started hitting those table tops "the small one's" ... ur videos really help thank you.
Heck yeah! Glad the tips are helping. See you up there!
Great video. You have a way of putting techniques into words that makes a good teacher. Thanks!
Thanks! Hope it helps. 👊🏾
Love the use of the fridge for the animation, fantastic! This was worth the wait
🙏🏾👊🏾
Very, very well produced. Thanks!
Thanks for the kind words. 🙏🏾
Went out yesterday and tried jumping a little table top on my MTB for the first time. I felt okay as far as stability (no nose diving) but I just couldn’t clear the middle. I think looking upward will help me a lot. Thanks and sick edits 🙌🏽💯
Heck yeah!
Dude, just watched this for the first time today.
We should have watched it before our summit trip last week.
Kids loved the jumps on muscle beach!
Right on!
This is so entertaining! I learned a lot man. keep it going!
Thanks! Will do.
Well done! Jumping has been super frustrating for me since our trails don’t really have any good tables to start on. I have found that quality built jumps would help me progress so much more. I am going to get the kickers out and try your tips next time!
I feel you, man. I know I owe a lot of my progress to having access to a lift-access park with a good jump line. Hope the tips help!
Nice job man. Super helpful!
Thanks! Glad it's helpful!
Thanks Alan for all the hard work. Sessioning with that row technique (especially the pull to hips) has revolutionized my jump game. People always told me to bunny hop off lips, and I was always confused by this b/c I have a good bunny hop and jumping with the bunny hop technique always felt sketchy. Your tips as an intermediate rider who is newer to jumping have made me become less confused by and excited about jumping. Today, I attempted my first suicide no-handed after not being able to clear the jumps 3-months ago. TLDR: Sorry for the rambling comment, but I am stoked on the learning to jump content!
Hi Benjamin! Not rambling at all. I dig hearing your story. And I'm stoked to know that I'm not the only one who 1. was also not convinced about bunnyhopping off lips and 2. got so much from the rowing movement. Super stoked for your progression! I'm still too scared to take a hand off, but dang do those tuck no-handers looks sick!
Dude, the animation is awesome! Great video!
Thanks!
Very good explanation bud. Definitely give these a go🤟🏻
Thanks! Hope it helps. 👊🏾
Thank you for the visuals!!
👊🏾 no worries.
Came here for the lesson. Stayed for the sideburns...AND the lesson...AND the stop motion animation!
😆🙏🏾
Man, such a dope edit! And thank you for this. I'm taking in as much jump info as possible and this break down has me stoked to go out there and keeping working on it! Gotta put in the time if I want to get better. Also, bring Bollywood back! ✌🏼🤟🏼
Thanks Adam! I hope the tips are helpful. LOL! The Bollywood does need to make a comeback.
Just had shoulder surgery so I'm studying hard to be a better rider in a couple months. Appreciate your hard work.
I hope you heal up well. That PT and scapular strength and position are some of the best things you can do to be a better rider! 💪🏽
Amazing video! Helped me a lot. Thanks. Had my front wheel dip mid drop yesterday and my heart sank. Barely landed. To make it worse, the ground was full of long prickly thorny plants… helped a lot today though!
Oh dang! Glad it helped!
Thank you Alan for this video, and if you decide to give a clinic class, I’m in! 🤙🍻
My pleasure! Ha...I'm far from qualified to give a clinic. But I'll let you know. 😆
Thanks bro will try this and more session on jump. I know This can improve on my jumps. Also the sessioning more often so master each type of jump.
Heck yeah! Hope it helps some.
Stumbled onto this video due to TH-cam algorithms.... Good job with it... You have some really high production for a smaller channel.... Keep it up... Subscribed
Thanks for the support! 🙏🏾
I'm a really good tech rider and ride alot of rooty stuff/rocky stuff and also really fast, good cornerer. but never got jumps right, always got bucked. This video is great advice, gonna use it next time I go ride, hopefully I'll be able to progress!
I feel you. Jumping is totally it's own skill set. I hope these tips help you!
@@mtb_alan Agreed! Thanks for the quality video too :)
My friends got me into MTB a few years ago but I’ve never learned to jump or approach a jump properly. I feel like crashing every I’m in the air. I appreciate this video. Spring is coming, maybe it’s time I tackle my fear..
Heck yeah. Take your time. 🤘🏾
I appreciate the effort of the stop motion video. Great video.
Glad you dug it!
Rad intro!! That had to be a nightmare to shoot. It came out great!
Thanks!
Best jump tutorial, biker from the Philippines
Thanks! 🙏🏾
Great advice for a noob like myself! Thank you!
My pleasure. Hope it helps!
I was good until “dead sailor”. My last name is Sailer. Now I’m spooked. LoL.
Oh no! Well, just be a living Sailer!
Same here, except that I am a sailor, not a Sailer.
Thanks for the tips bro important the session practice makes perfect
My pleasure. Practice makes habit. Perfect practice makes perfect. ;)
Thanks for the tips!
My pleasure!
This is the first time I’ve heard the “keep your head up” tip 👌👌👌👌
I immediately related with it 😭😭
🤘🏾 Sweet!
Nice online lesson! Thanks Alan!
My pleasure!
Wow that stop motion mustve taken a lot of time! Awesome vid man! Will have to try these tips out next time I ride :) Keep the vids coming!
Yo! I hope the tips help! Stop motion is always a labor of love, but in this case, I did have a fridge full of snacks and sodas nearby. 😆
@@mtb_alan Heck yeah man! Been waiting for this to come out. I see why it took so long hahah Turned out awesome btw
Awesome video Alan!!!! Thank you!!!
My pleasure! 👊🏾
I thought this video was going to be the same as every other one, but I was presently surprised. The "look up past the lip" technique is a great tip. It will subconsciously put your body in a better position. I hate when people say to "bunny hop" off the lip. That's not how it works. You explained it very well. Great video.
Thanks Luke! That means a lot. 🙏🏾
just the video i needed! thanks man! 🤙
Heck yeah!
Great tips in the "row." I totally agree. I'd like to know how some guys get air off of the smallest stuff?
Thanks Eric! I felt the same way about skaters who could ollie like it was nothing. I think it often comes from just a couple subtle changes and timing.
Awesome tutorial man!
Thanks Tanner!
awesome video mate!
Thanks Aidan!
Love the graphics!
Thanks Rob! Good meeting you in person at Skypark!
Nice video Alan very useful information
Thanks! Glad you found it useful. 👊🏽
Have waited for the next MTB-Alan episode 😊👍 Jumping are fun and scary. Just learning now whenever I can 😊
Like your videos, stil have a lot of them to look through 😊👍 Well, winter is coming, so I will have the time 😂
Btw, like your beard/mustasch 👍👊 I have a schnurrbart. Just for the fun of it 😂😂😂
Glad you're diggin' the content and also that you share my appreciation for weird facial hair. LOL!
You stepped up the sound effects so much and yet I'm stilled bummed about the lack of fist bumps.
Ha! That’s funny. I totally thought about the lack of 🤜🏽 💥 🤛🏽 in this episode. 😆
Nice intro 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 and 🔥🔥 content
Thanks!
Great video. I'm 60 YO and I never really jumped anything, we always dropped off stuff. Now all these jump lines everywhere has me scared to try. The lips are so steep that they look like they are for pump bikes, not MTBs. Thanks for the tips. I think I'll pick one and session it like you say. Thanks Brother!
No worries! I put out a video specifically about how to avoid getting bucked. It should help. 🤘🏾

Hi Alan, I'm looking forward to trying these things when I find some jumps (When Snow Summit opens I guess). I like the tutorial videos you do, It would be really nice if you would do one for Car Wreck. Thanks
Right on Keith. You can probably find some other jumps in the meantime, yeah? Glad you dig the tutorials. Thanks for the suggestion. I would have to actually get good at riding Car Wreck first. 😅
excellent excellent, thank you!!!
great video Alan
👊🏾
Good advice, I’m working on the row part atm .... I saw you on the Joey podcast and have the same way of coming up with a story for my vids .... watch all your footage from the ride and build a story based on what happens with a general idea going into it 🤙🏼
Right on! The row is still something I have to remind myself to do.
It may not have folksy stylings of the Air Horn theme but that auto tune is amazing!
LOL! 😆
its Barry Bandirath.!!!! this video was super helpful
Heck yah!
Great tips! I'm, fo sho, for Row over Wade 😉 I never know if I should be covering the breaks on the take off.
I don’t go anywhere near the brakes anywhere on a jump. 😬
Dude, the stop motion is SO RIDICULOUSLY GOOD!
Oh my God and the vocorder!? Hahaha
Hee hee! Thanks so much! Glad you like my "natural" singing voice. 😆
@@mtb_alan you and cher, out there with voices of angles.
Good explanation, thanks Alan
Thanks! My pleasure.
Man so bummed Summit closed already and can't practice this stuff! Will have to remember to watch at the beginning of next season
Same. But you don’t have to wait to try the tips.
I'm subscribing for the effort you put into this video but mostly because I thought you were Skills with Phil who finally got a tan
Thanks for subscribing! Maybe I don’t look like a tan white guy. Maybe Phil looks like a pale brown guy. 🤯
Great video Alan, some solid tips, great advice on concentrating on one thing at a time. One thing no one ever mentions though is how much you need to do it. By my very unscientific reckoning you need to hit around 2500 jumps just to start feeling comfortable hitting moderate sized jumps (FYI I’m an old fart so I’m sure the younger and braver would need less). Sounds a lot but they add up really quick, and really builds the muscle memory needed.
Glad you appreciated that. I was a CrossFit trainer for several years, and saw how quickly an athlete could make progress with a little bit of singular focus. And in terms of 2500 jump reps...! I will have to do some math and figure out how many jumps I did during the Snow Summit summer season. 🤔 😆
MTB ALAN I usually hit around 150 to 200 on a not too intense day at snow summit.
