What a breath of fresh air to see tutorials NOT on a full suspension bike and with the suspension locked out making it virtually a rigid bike. Fantastic.👍
Thanks!! Good to learn stuff with the bike setup as you’d actually ride it, right? I sometimes lock out my fork (that one has a remote), just to get the basics sorted - but you have to then go back and learn it with the suspension added in. Sometimes it can be a huge help - like that front wheel bump on the log in the first section.
If you really want to learn the basics try a BMX. I'm not trying to be a smartass or anything but take your kid's bike and start messing around. I learned all my skills on a BMX and then plateaued at 30 on a MTB 😂
How are there not more comments on these videos? This guy is awesome at breaking these moves down and explaining things so well that even a noobie can follow.
This is my goal for 2024. This lovely log that we need to hop over. I have one on my trail. A log that it just a bit too big to ride over and it taller than my clearance. Perfect video for me. Im here in my journey
On day 2 of practice and the timing is just starting to click. Can't believe I've been riding for 6 years without learning to get over obstacles higher than my bb. Thanks for the vid!
I thought I saw every MTB vid on TH-cam but never saw this one or any others from Super Rider. This one is very helpful and I look forward to practicing. Thanks.
The dreaded uphill ledge! I know it's only a bias because it's noticeable when tired, but they are always the worst thing when I'm tired from lots of pedaling and or have near zero momentum because of whatever hill/climb I'm on. Killer tutorial dude!
The least forgiving obstacle, no question! That double pump move has saved me on more than a few occasions - but I know exactly what you mean! Sometimes it’s good to have a break from pedaling uphill! Haha
This is one tutorial I was waiting to watch. I have seen 100s fo videos related to the subject, but this one did the explanation like no other. Keep up the good work.
Thanks for this! I'm a former BMXer maaaaany years ago. Now I'm old and I'm trying to get into MTB to regain some fitness and my former passion for biking. I watch moto trials regularly and just drool over the mad skills. Definitely subbed!
I believe my problem has been using my front brake to give me a moment on top of the object to make sure I'm up safely. That is probably why I clear things better going downhill. Time to find a bigger and softer log! Nice job on the slow motion.
great tutorial video dude. I like how you break it down to individual movements. plenty people ask me about this kind of stuff. Now I'm just going to send them to watch this video.
Well done. I learned years ago on rigid bikes bc that is all we had. The best suspension any bike can have is your arms and legs. The bike is just the tool to execute the moves. Too many nubes are jumping in on $10K FS bikes and the bike allows them to plow through features and never learn to ride them properly. They just carry over logs. Lol.
Subscribed!! So glad I found this! I'm a novice and was getting really discouraged not being able to improve with obstacles. Everything is so well explained, can't wait to get back on the trails and practice 😁
Great content! I ride a heavy SC Nomad 26" with DH wheels and tires and coil shock. Like to see you with a full suspension like mine. It really absorbs the input energy so it is more about working with the timing of the cushy suspension for me to pull the momentum maneuvers. Have learned so much from your channel, thanks.
Thanks so much! Agreed - suspension definitely impacts these techniques - but all still possible. I've been thinking a lot about including a version of these tutorials on my full suspension bike. There are some ways to use it to your own advantage - as I'm sure you know.
Thank you . I come from a road racing background (35yrs). It's good to finally get on a mtb and start having fun .just kidding . Thank you. Good job !!
After watching this I tried it on my mtb. I don’t know if I’m just too weak or my balance is completely wrong but I can’t get my back wheel up anywhere near that lol. It’s a full suspension and 15kg? Should it still be able to be done?
It looks like when you went to get over that log after you hit it in the ace at 11:00 you pre-loaded the shot the bike out in front of you pushing arms out and/or hips back sort of like what you would do on a drop? Is this harder to do in a hardtail for a beginner?

Start small and work your way up - practice makes progress! There are a few newer videos on this channel that dive way deeper into the back wheel lift, definitely check those out.
I have this problem sometimes too, but when I focus on my foot placement it seems to go away. I’m usually so focused on my back foot, sometimes my front foot goes rogue.
@@SuperRiderTV cool I'll practice again when I have the time . I had a magnificent OTB when my chain got stuck on the backside of the log and I tried to hop forward 🤣
how important is to master the skill from your new episode how to jump up to back wheel? in 2:53 it kinda looks as that same movement which helps you to get the rear wheel over the log. there this this small "pedal kick".
It’s a very similar movement - this is the foundation and then you can built up to back wheel stuff. These skills all built on each other, that’s the best part!
In almost all turorials i see the riders with flat pedal and shoes, I'm always locked on my pedals , which holds me back trying this stuf , not being able to click out in time if something goes wrong.
@@SuperRiderTV Do you ride clips much not that want to get into a whole debate about riding clipless vs flats but am interested in weather or not you do ride clipless a fair amount?
Short chainstays are the main thing you’d be looking for on a bike that hops well - the chainstays on my bike are just over 16”. Everything else is a bonus!

Have you made it yet?

Awesome, thank you! Glad you found the channel!
pretty sure this is the best explanation for this move i've watched
Thank you!
Great video! I’m tired of dismounting because of obstacles

Oh awesome!! Stoked that you are here - did you see the Moto vs Bike Trials video yet?? One of my favorite ones on here so far!
@@SuperRiderTV Is it bad to say that I watched it twice? And will definitely watch again!
Sweet! We had so much fun making that - definitely going to do another one, too. That spot is perfect and Kylee rips!
Before you can do that you’ll need to upgrade your wheels (I9) or hope wheels to be able to dig a little bit to move up and over

Brilliant! Thanks.

Thank you so much!!
Your videos are very good. Thank you. I wanted to know what type handlebar grips you have? Are they thick and comfortable? And relieve hand comfort
Thanks so much! I ride Deity Supracrush grips. Here's a link: jenson.sjv.io/e4xkJr
This is a wheelie good video.
Hahaha thanks!!
Good one Ed!
Aaron, let's singlespeed that bike and make it a big kid's BMX!!
Deal!
I’ve entered the world of eMTB riding. Any chance of a “master class” like this one but for the heavier bike?
Great call! I could definitely add this to my list - might be a minute before I'm able to do it properly, though. Winter here in Portland..
Great vid. Thank! Stoked to get out and learn more and higher stuff. Keep it up!
Thanks so much! Have fun - practice makes progress!
I always default to a wheelie, but yeah it's not necessary the most efficient thing to do 😅
Happens to many, and I am looking forward on something much...
Grazie mille
Have fun!!
Cool vids! Is it possible to see you on a dirt jumping stuffs with a trial bike? Pls..
Thanks!! Did you want me to dirt jump with my trials bike? Or ride trials with a dirt jump bike? One might be easier than the other.. 😉
@@SuperRiderTV dirt jump track on your trials bike. Just curious about it how it goes
Thx for this vid! What brakes do you use on this hardtail?
I was using Magura MT-7s in this video, but recently switched to Hayes Dominion brakes. I’d recommend the Hayes for sure!

Are you supposed to be clipless for that "Down -Back- and UP" procedure?
I suggest learning it with flat pedals first, but it’s possible with either style of pedals
Couple of words and description about feet position and tension or no tension, push to feets when we try move up rear wheel?
I've just practice this today.
I notice my front foot keeps lifting off the pedal
I have this problem sometimes too, but when I focus on my foot placement it seems to go away. I’m usually so focused on my back foot, sometimes my front foot goes rogue.
@@SuperRiderTV cool I'll practice again when I have the time .

at my age ... its really hard to get my front end up ..

Spot on - a big reason why I teach everything on flat pedals!

@@nomad-pq4yw8iy7v I almost never ride clipless, mostly because I'm trying to find fun, super technical trails to do trialsy stuff...
👍
Can I do it with a hard tail
Absolutely!
I’m guessing these techniques will be a bit tougher with a 50lb eMTB…
Slightly, but you'd be surprised how much technique can help - even with a heavier bike
@@SuperRiderTV it would be very interesting to see some tutorials using an eMTB.
@@TimAldredge I'll add it to the list! Thanks for the suggestion! :)
do you have a bike check on your Santa Cruz?
I haven’t made one yet!
@@SuperRiderTV if ever you make a video of it, maybe you can give us the geometry of this bike and what makes it easy hop. Thanks a lot.
Short chainstays are the main thing you’d be looking for on a bike that hops well - the chainstays on my bike are just over 16”. Everything else is a bonus!
There is just no escaping those 5G towers. They seem to be everywhere. Anyone ponders why? Aside from that great tutorial video.
Thanks for watching!
