Oh yes - I can remember the old-school UK jump offs with Martyn, Martin Hawes, Jez Avery, and Chris Hemming jumping silly heights - that was back in the days of proper race weekends when there were thousands of spectators, a festival atmosphere, racing and tricks competitions all day (DH on a Saturday then XC on a Sunday) with live bands and dance tents in the evenings - thank you UK government and anti-rave public order legislation for killing that off :(
How did I not know Martyn was in a wheelchair? He was already my favorite personality on the channel but this brings it to another level. Type of dude I'd love to be around on a regular. Cheers from Raleigh NC, USA.. 🍻
This channel is great. Came here for Martyn Ashton and really got into it from there. Martyn is amazing with a great spirit. Truly rare chap. Great sense of humor as with many of the people on here. These guys are making quality vids. Thank you. Learning a lot.
Amazing video guys! Last week i made one similar jumping with different bikes and teaching a some tips! Close results, blake made 84cm y made 80cm with a dirt and a enduro bike! Keep it the good work up!! Cheers from Chile!!
blake is such an inspiration, yes the other lads on gmbn are great, but the way he rides and his personality is he just sounds like the better person to watch, well done gmbn. good choice
Blake's got skills! (actually they all do, haha) I'd be lucky to clear the first height. I love seeing Martyn in these videos, the whole time I was watching I was thinking "Martyn would OWN this!".
Besides the bike advantage, also can tell Blake's BMX background. Blake's bunny hops have both wheels level to the ground at highest point and then land on both wheels, vs Scott and Neil have front going down before the rear goes up, and then lands on front wheel first.
great video!! loved seeing the guys just having fun like we do here... and especially it so made my fn day to see martyn out with the guys!!!! thanks Gmbn
we use a limbo bar on our skills track...one of the most hottest competed obstacles with the young folk we work with. once your below handlebar height you need to pull out some fancy technique... give it a go lads!
Blake was definitely the best equipped from the start, with a dj bike. I'm really surprised at how well Scott and Neil did. I can get like 3 feet from my bmx cruiser but probably only a foot or so on my trail bike. I can't even imagine how much work it would be to get a plus bike up that high. Well done, guys!
Got an idea for a video - How to fix overheating the brakes (i'm a heavy guy doing long downhills). Looking at my options - After a bit of research - I'm going to add finned ice tech brake pads, use shimano ice tech rotors & upgrade the rotor size from 180mm to 203mm. Getting good info about the all the weird and wonderful brake mount adapters is tricky!
Thank you for share us this video. I really love this video indeed. I will be very happy if u guys upload hybrid or road bike bunnyhop battle. And could u explain me about pedal and shoe that wear on this video. What types of pedal and shoes are the best for bunnyhop. Lastly, Blake's bunnyhop skill is amazing.
Just wanna say Martyn Ashton is a total hero; can't ride but he's one of the boys. Shot Martyn you're my hero. And lol who hears Blake saying: "Mr Ashton." Awesome
When are we going to see doing some wcmx or even riding on a trike or his modified full suspension? lets see this super talented dude back on the trail!
I grinned all the way through this. :D and did anyone else notice that Blake at about 4:57 had something like a 'challenge accepted' face???? Let's have a rematch. Thanks guys!!
What’s up Gmbn? Martin is one of my favorite gmbn. I would love to see a video about him. and his mtb career. I recently seen a video where he said he was Blake’s team mate. I find that interesting .
cool video, love watching the daily clips. only got into mtb a couple of months ago and you guys really helped me figure some bits out. also, saw martyn Ashton's road bike party the other day. only one word to describe it, awesome.
that's some height boys!! i reckon i could only get about 15 inches on my hardtail Giant Talon, back in the day when i rode only a bmx i could prolly get near 30 inches (much easier on a bmx i reckon). anyway, I am loving this channel and you have just earned a new subscriber!
It's so nice to se Martyn as happy as he is now.! :)
Was he serious with the 50 inches? That's sick if so!
Oh yes - I can remember the old-school UK jump offs with Martyn, Martin Hawes, Jez Avery, and Chris Hemming jumping silly heights - that was back in the days of proper race weekends when there were thousands of spectators, a festival atmosphere, racing and tricks competitions all day (DH on a Saturday then XC on a Sunday) with live bands and dance tents in the evenings - thank you UK government and anti-rave public order legislation for killing that off :(
Xenoph I've never seen him do it, but judging by his videos like road bike party, I don't doubt it
Estefano Rinaldi I found a vid of him jumping 1m high! search for 'martyn ashton bunny hop'
David Stix he is such and inspiration
Its awesome to see Martyn out of the shed!
EdgeOfSanity Yep!!
Blake's face when Martyn tells about his 50inch...bunny hop.
and that was probably on a road bike too
4:55
Now invite Danny Macaskill :P
^_^ Haha
Was about to suggest him too! :D
slaQ83 Scott pilgrim
or Barack Obama
slaQ83 Danny macaskill wins Every time
Hahaaahaaa Blake's face after Martyn tells him that he's managed 50 inches before!
I love how Martyn lays down the law at the end "My record is maybe a foot higher" hahahah
How did I not know Martyn was in a wheelchair? He was already my favorite personality on the channel but this brings it to another level. Type of dude I'd love to be around on a regular. Cheers from Raleigh NC, USA.. 🍻
These type of vids are my favroet
Thetrading Panda yis
Neil is at that responsible age where he has to let the young ones win.
Neil Gooders ahahahha best comment hahhah
@@TrollingBerry cc
Well Neil might not have the skills in the parking lot but he definitely can shred
@@gcahbm he had more plush making it harder
Martyn should make a video on wheel chair trials
he should do a colab with Papu Frank to pimp his wheelchair
Tony Eatinsky just no dude
Lowland Visuals lel
Lowland Visuals just yes dude
Or a manual challenge against the others , like when he leans back and just goes on his big wheels (idk if you can do that but)
every body loves Martyn, more vids with him!
Haha. Martyn just causally dropping his super high bunny hop PR.

This channel is great. Came here for Martyn Ashton and really got into it from there. Martyn is amazing with a great spirit. Truly rare chap. Great sense of humor as with many of the people on here. These guys are making quality vids. Thank you. Learning a lot.
Mr. Ashton you're such an inspiration and exemplify good sportsmanship. It's always a pleasure to hear your enthusiasm.
No more questions like "can I do ______ on my _____ bike?" guys! Neil killed it on a plus bike!
Amazing video guys! Last week i made one similar jumping with different bikes and teaching a some tips! Close results, blake made 84cm y made 80cm with a dirt and a enduro bike! Keep it the good work up!! Cheers from Chile!!
Mtb Enduro Chile i tried same thing but never got close to 80 cm. 42 cm!
yes definitely need to do more videos like this and I like seeing Martyn out there with you guys.
Fun to see! Great to see Martyn out of the shed! Keep up theses kinds of videos.
blake is such an inspiration, yes the other lads on gmbn are great, but the way he rides and his personality is he just sounds like the better person to watch, well done gmbn. good choice
wait a second doesn't blake have a slight advantage over the others? his bike is lighter and smaller, if i'm right neil had to try the hardest
Yeah, but it's all just for fun.
I think they chose them
What bike is blake riding on?
Dirt jumper
Actually on a challenge the same day he lost because of the missing front brake: th-cam.com/video/8kciKBkMwig/w-d-xo.html
Really great to see Martyn out with the boys! The four of you work really well together!
GMBN just got better with these battle videos! Cheers guys!
This was one of the best GMBN videos ever.
What a great video, I am stuck indoors with a cold and this made my day.
Martyn's positivity and enthusiasm is such an inspiration!
Love seeing all the boys out and about and having fun. How about Martyn vs the others in some wheelchair challenges?
Yey more battle video !
that dunnyhop is really really high!!!!
so wonderful!!!!
LOVE this video!! More of this and more of Martyn.
You guys should do some more challenges like this one
Blake's got skills! (actually they all do, haha) I'd be lucky to clear the first height. I love seeing Martyn in these videos, the whole time I was watching I was thinking "Martyn would OWN this!".
Besides the bike advantage, also can tell Blake's BMX background. Blake's bunny hops have both wheels level to the ground at highest point and then land on both wheels, vs Scott and Neil have front going down before the rear goes up, and then lands on front wheel first.
It's more because bike type I think, mountain bikes have the tendency to do that. DJs not so much.
great video!! loved seeing the guys just having fun like we do here... and especially it so made my fn day to see martyn out with the guys!!!! thanks Gmbn
Good to see Martin outside!! :-D And love these challenges you lads are puttin on :-)
Great to see Martyn outside of shed!
we use a limbo bar on our skills track...one of the most hottest competed obstacles with the young folk we work with. once your below handlebar height you need to pull out some fancy technique... give it a go lads!
Blake has really good technic :) Nice lift, nice landing.
Blake was definitely the best equipped from the start, with a dj bike. I'm really surprised at how well Scott and Neil did. I can get like 3 feet from my bmx cruiser but probably only a foot or so on my trail bike. I can't even imagine how much work it would be to get a plus bike up that high. Well done, guys!
You all got huge jumps! I would choose a dirt jump bike to try, like Blake did.
That's pretty sick. They should do another one with trials bikes
great stuff! :D the face that Blake had when Martyn said his record :D:D
That was so much fun to watch guys! Thank you.
Blake's hop looks so effortlessly made... nice bike too
Downright FUN!
This is getting serious now lol good to see another challenge video boys!
Mr. Ashton keep up man big respect
NEED MORE MARTYN
We need to see an all hardtail bunny hop challenge now!
Scott, that Canyon is so sweet
That was so much fun to watch. please do more of these challenges.
so great to see Mark on trail... we want to see you more outside, man :bb
Got an idea for a video - How to fix overheating the brakes (i'm a heavy guy doing long downhills).

I can see it in Martins eye he would love to do a bunny hop! Nice Vid keep it up!
Great video, really made smile! Thx guys!
Do more battles !!
Love to see you in the video Mr Ashton
Awesome fun, guys!
Thank you for share us this video. I really love this video indeed. I will be very happy if u guys upload hybrid or road bike bunnyhop battle. And could u explain me about pedal and shoe that wear on this video. What types of pedal and shoes are the best for bunnyhop. Lastly, Blake's bunnyhop skill is amazing.
Just wanna say Martyn Ashton is a total hero; can't ride but he's one of the boys. Shot Martyn you're my hero. And lol who hears Blake saying: "Mr Ashton." Awesome
any chance yall can do a review on GiantBikes? (i know... crap in comparison to all these pricey pushies) but i love my Giant
It's great seeing Martyn so happy, just sad he couldn't be in it with them. Maybe he could have been on his electric Dual MTB.
Hi Gmbn I think you guys should do a tutorial on how to build jumps and a trail track
When are we going to see doing some wcmx or even riding on a trike or his modified full suspension? lets see this super talented dude back on the trail!
martyn that is!
Great video guys. I was smiling from ear to ear throughout. 👍 fun times.
Martyn needs to be in more vids!!!
Neil nailed it!
The GMBN crew is awesome! 😃
Martyn still king of the bunny hops - his attitude is inspirational..
Good times Sunday vid!
I grinned all the way through this. :D and did anyone else notice that Blake at about 4:57 had something like a 'challenge accepted' face???? Let's have a rematch. Thanks guys!!
What’s up Gmbn? Martin is one of my favorite gmbn. I would love to see a video about him. and his mtb career. I recently seen a video where he said he was Blake’s team mate. I find that interesting .
that was pretty awesome
Blake I trusted in you and you delivered!
"It is all about the bunny hop technique" Neil and Scott! Haha just for laughs!
You guys should invite Brad Simms
cool video, love watching the daily clips. only got into mtb a couple of months ago and you guys really helped me figure some bits out. also, saw martyn Ashton's road bike party the other day. only one word to describe it, awesome.
I like that Blake is not as awkward as Scott and Neil.
Crazy how high you jump! We also did a bunny hop challenge, but we did not get that high! ;D
Can u do a video on how to hop higher? I can't get nearly that high!
Martin is a living legend
Cant wait to see more videos like this!!
excellent ! merci les amis.. 👍👍
Is there a bunnyop (
I once got my front wheel off the ground... btw Martyn should be in more videos, he makes the GMBN squad
Good to see Martin out of the shed
great video my friends very motivated for do the same trick thanks
Loving this! Nice work guys!
I Hope Martin ashton can ride again and walk it would be fun seing them riding together😊
Nice battle but I have to say that Blake had a big advantage for the bike he was using, way lighter and with less travel compared to the others!!!
really love where the channel is going! super nice!
that's some height boys!! i reckon i could only get about 15 inches on my hardtail Giant Talon, back in the day when i rode only a bmx i could prolly get near 30 inches (much easier on a bmx i reckon). anyway, I am loving this channel and you have just earned a new subscriber!
blake watched the which mountain bike should i buy video!
Nice to see you guys have fun together :)
What kind of hub is Blake rinding?
got to give it Neil, on a plus. much harder
I super enjoyed the video, thank you guys! I'm gonna go work on my bunnyhops right now lol!!!
Hi, can someone tell me what kind of wheel they are using?
I miss this kind of video :(
Quick question. Does your shocks and suspension affect your bunny hop?
Neil,why do you do the contest with a tank? ;-) fun to watch,guys and congrats to mr. samson
That chromed bike is sick...
What is the name of helmet that covering ears?
