As the title states, we have a ton of work left, but for the time being, I happy with how it rides and there's a few other trail building projects that I'd like to get a head start on before circling back to this at a later date. That might be this year, or we might wait until next. I've been taking advantage of the favorable building conditions to tackle a bunch of other projects. The next few videos might jump around a bit, but I think it'll come together.
Sweet progress! Wish I had the opportunity to build jumps like this in my yard! Been waiting for the next video what seems like forever. Keep the building content coming Phil!
Love these videos, but I have to say Phil, I was higly impressed with that sneaky cross-foot- technique at 3:40 you used to tow the wagon of rocks behind you! 🤙
Concerning the last jump in the line: lip to lander =14 ft, take-off should be 36-40 inches high with a 9-10 ft radius. This will give a decent amount of hang time and pop for tricks.
@@PhilsWorld i did try to reply however I think it was deleted because I put a link in the reply. Basically I was suggesting getting a "reel mower" and taking the blade off or disabling it and then using it as a mower like compactor. Probably not the best idea as they can be heavy and they would slip on steep inclines.
Dynamite. Honestly though, that combo can be super frustrating no matter what tool you use. Frustrating by, hand, and frustrating in an excavator. I find jabbing branch cutters into the dirt to cut as much of a root out at once to be pretty effective to get rid of roots. Then i follow up with a standard pick axe to pry out rocks. The smaller rocks and roots are easy to get with a rake.
Can I actually like hire you to come out to central New York and build me a little pump track or dirt jumps here in my back yard and you could make videos about it on TH-cam

Packing with the one wheel!! I love it!!
It's way more fun and works surprisingly well!
Smokey freshly brushed?! Tell your cat i said pspsps
Awesome progress Phil excited to see you back in the woods tackling the trails.
Very impressed with your trail building skills! You are a man of many talents!!
12:24 Very subtle yet very deliberate.
Lol nope! Never noticed this until now haha!
Nice! Looks like I forgot to switch accounts again 😁
@@SkillsWithPhil I am honoured to have garnered the attention of the “main page”.☺️

I really like hearing your explanations!
Hell yeah🤟🏼
Good progress Phil! Nice job 🤙🏼🤙🏼
Get an old self propelled drum mower (a small light one) take the blade pulley off and use that the pack it down.
Can you be more specific? Do you have an example, this is the first I've heard of this.

What is the best way to dig up through a ton of small roots?

@@PhilsWorld Thank you! I’ve been using a mattock and I will take your advice!!!
Lmao that boot hitch is classic 🤣🤣when was this filmed? Looks like early spring judging from the lack of green
Yup you are spot in. It was before i went to BC for a few weeks, so early may. I have been working on other projects since I've gotten back.
