- If you struggling to jump a mountain bike and you've not learned how to do simple bump jumps, you're doing it all wrong. Plus, this skill makes riding boring trails so much more fun as you look for opportunities transfer from one bump to another. Few people talk about the importance of this skill.
It's not about what we do on the trail. It's about what we've done on the trail and what that does for us. PASSION - PROGRESS - POTENTIAL.

Thanks for watching and please like and subscribe. It means a lot!
I want these videos to be super helpful, but the only way I know is with a subscribe, like, or comment. Otherwise, I’m left wondering. Get out there and bump jump everything in sight. But most of all, have fun! Thanks for watching!
Mastering bump jumps is like having a cheat code for turning the fun level up to 11! 100% agree with being comfortable landing on rocks & roots since jumping or manualing over them is much smoother and it looks cool too.
Thanks - great video and explanation. Good to see examples of how to use this on the trails as well. I'm trying to learn to jump. This technique looks like a much safer way to get some practise. I've got plenty of timber so I'll be outside tomorrow giving this try.
Your videos have been helpful. Thanks. Would you say the bump jump technique at the lip of a jump is a good technique to apply to larger jumps as well?
I’m just returning to riding after a 13 year break but when I was riding dj and bmx bikes I would often avoid bump jumping on any actual lip to avoid getting bucked mid air and dumping the front wheel.
Bump jumps outside of practice are very situational and if what your jumping over does not have anything that might require the bump it should be avoided.
On proper jumps usually preloading and pumping through rollers/transitions would be more effective
Great video. Thanks
The slow-mo with replay really helps me to understand and embed the technique.
Keep up the great work.
A little wordy, but very good break down, especially with the stop motion and reverse action. Can’t wait to get out and try this.
Great video! I’ve been trying to describe this technique to my son for a while. After watching all of your videos it wild how different our trails are out here near Pittsburgh.
Really helpful, thank you.
great! thanks so much!
Thanks for this man I really liked the preload video. Could you break down the idea of pulling up to pop/boost on a jump? People say it but I think it’s not a simple as that. There’s more with timing and pulling form (I.e. is it like pulling for a wheelie where it’s more your body weight than a row technique? Do you wait until your front wheel is in the air to pull?). Love the videos and that you’re helping people get better
I'm curious about this as well. Like does applying the bump jump technique at the lip of the jump basically explain what it feels like to boost the jump a little versus a simple knees over toes boost? A little more detail on boosting with the context of the bump jump technique could be helpful.
Great information man.. your tutorials are up there with the best of TH-cam 👌
