I've Wanted To Clear This Line For 2 Years! - Progression Session At The Boise Bike Park

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 16 ก.ค. 2024
- Kyle helped me work through the last two features on the blue line at the Boise bike park (Idaho). This line has been a big goal for me since the park opened at the end of 2019. The wood lips are what scared me the most on this line, but I able able to knock them off on my own. Then I surprisingly got stuck at the last wall ride. Which is what we focus on in this video. I am so thankful for Kyle helping me through it, because it ended up being the most difficult feature for me on this line! It is fun to see how Kyle coaches me through this and the process of me overcoming the fears to finally get through the line!

I hope you guys like this progression session, I am so happy to finally make some progress at this park. I got stuck on the green line for what felt like too long and I was losing my motivation, I am so happy I got to step it up and unlock a new line for more fun here!
congratulations April! more in store in the future!
🙌🙌🙌
Nice video showing progression on getting all aspects. What schwalbe tires are on the bike?
Kyle, I appreciate your teaching methods that step by step, helped to build up April's confidence. April, you're gut-tie and tenacious. Kudos for conquering the two challenges. This lesson was fun to watch, much like piecing together a puzzle.
Nice work!!! That’s an intimidating run 😮
Wow! I'm impressed with April's advancement and Kyle's ability to ride and teach. Someday I hope to get as good as April.
Thank you! In April I remember saying the same thing when we went to the Riveter and I wanted to get the fun black line in the covered area. th-cam.com/video/LvQhGsK594I/w-d-xo.html
April has gone from "maybe she will ride well someday" to "maybe I'll be able to ride like her someday". Good job!
Zero people at the park = bonus. Great facility with time to session, incredible natural talent on 2 wheels, pro coach who is dedicated and patient, and just happens to be one of the most skilled bike handlers of the day. Love to see the success.
well said!!
Good job to you both! I caught myself cheering for April while watching this.
haha that's awesome!
We all did!
Those edits with side by side comparison of your two
Attempts and Aprils attempts. Are really well thought out. And well put together.
April's progression series is the single most inspiring MTB content on youtube
Aww thank you!
I totally screamed yes! When you got the wall ride and scared my dogs lol! This was an awesome video. So relatable I can feel my fears when you’re talking about being scared. So rad you got through it, congratulations!
Haha thank you!
Nice!! Watching her progress on that feature is really cool. Kyle is SO good at breaking it down and pointing out what is happening and what you want to happen. Great coaching. That coaching ability is what really hooked me on this channel. April did fantastic on that wall. I love her helmet.
Great video you two!!! I feel like things are getting back to where they should be…big sigh of relief and satisfaction!!!!
I hope you two have a great rest of the weekend.
❤
Thanks Todd, we are glad to get back to more videos like this!
Been waiting to see this video! It was so cool to see you guys filming this video in person, watching April’s progression has been so cool to see! Keep up these awesome videos!!!
Thanks Ryan! You show up in the background for a second. I had filmed one clip of you hitting the wall and had it in the video, but it eventually got trimmed out when we were making the video shorter. We had to cut about 5 min out!
@@AprilRideMTB no problem! The video was about April’s progression so it’s totally fine. I loved the part where the video was side by side and one was Kyle looking up on the wall and one was kyle looking down, it really painted a good picture of how much where you look changes where you go!
Congrats!
Thank you!
I can't even bunny hop, so I'm awed by April's progress. Kyle, though, makes everything look easy - like when he went to Berm Peak and rode the features in reverse.
It’s been fun to watch April’s improvement and work through any fears she encounters. Shes becoming a very good rider! Nice to have a great coach that knows what he’s talking about…
Thank you!
Great going April! And yeah, Kyle always makes everything look easy. lol It’s his superpower. Much love to you both! :)
haha thanks!
This is so awesome. You can tell this all real. Something we all go through when trying something new. The coaching is great, the overcoming "fear" is great. Love it. Thank you!
That is too cool to actually see the progression as you get better and better each time. April you are awesome. Kyle, you were born to be a teacher. You explain things so well and you motivate in a way that's not off putting but inspirational. Both of you show so much patience. Great video
Almost broke into some tears. The way you coach her and your patience and love you have for each other...keep it up guys you're amazing
Awww thank you!
Once again, hats off to both April and Kyle. Sooo realistic on how many riders get stuck in their head (me included). Side by side graphics and arrows are really helpful. Can’t stop rooting for April and Kyle’s instruction and patience are superb!
Thank you Steven!
Great job, April!
Can't wait for summer start coaching again. Kyle has become my favorite coach mentor!
Thank you!
You guys are the best. You take daunting (or seemingly daunting) elements, break them down so they're more simple, resulting in success.
I find myself cheering for April when she succeeds.
That was awesome! Felt like I was totally in that progression with you. Got me cheering over here!🤣😅
Thats great to hear!
"Where you're looking is where you're gonna go" is prophetic, Kyle. Congrats April, you're such an inspiration.
Always true!
So awesome April! Love the progression.
Awesome progress, Amber! Congrats!
It's always so fun to watch y'all.
Awesome progression! Congrats April!
Love it. Well done April, and great coaching Kyle!
Nice work and great coaching! Always great to see the huge smile of success
Awesome job April!
So great to see you guys out on the trail again.
Love all the progression videos. April is badass! Way to go!
I really appreciate seeing the work that needs to be applied in order to succeed! Nice job both of you!
Great to see the progression from start to finish. Liked the side by side videos of the differences of where you should be looking. Thanks for putting out great tutorial videos!
Way to go April. It's so much fun to make good progressions! It has to be fun for Kyle to teach and see such awesome results. Good job guys!
Nice work April! Another great coaching session from Kyle.
Well done both of you!
Thanks both for another wonderful video...
So good. So fun to watch you guys. Good job April!
So sick! Great job April! And great coaching. Great to see the progression one little bit at a time. Makes me believe I could get to that level someday
this is awesome to see April out conquering some of her fears and transitioning through the course!! Kyle you look great hope there are absolutely zero lingering effects from the VAX that you got a while back
Just a thought and doesn’t seem like it would bother anyone with higher ramp riding skills, why not just fill in the landing area with dirt to make it smooth and not have that rear wheel bump launch potential??
I understand the entrance having a little gap prior to hitting the wall but anyone that’s up higher on the wall will already jump and land past that gap transition on the other side so instead of having it be potentially dangerous and bucking somebody(begginer-ish) as they’re leaving the wall on a lower angle it would just be safe all the way through it’s not gonna bother anybody with speed on a higher side of the ramp because they’re going to be well beyond that transition point so it’s not even necessary and would be safer for those that are hesitant as April is in the beginning
hope that makes sense but the transition gap on the opposite side is totally unnecessary and would not be missed by anybody like Kyle‘s ability because they’re already passed that area as they leave the ramp from a height standpoint
just my .02
looking great April, congrats 💪🏼💪🏼👏🏼👏🏼🌟
Proud of you!! I’m still working up the courage to do lines like this myself and it’s so much harder than it looks when you’re learning
amazing perspective working through your fears together!
so fun to watch you two congrats on the progression!
Glad you enjoy it!
April you are KILLING IT!!!! So strange how much harder it can be to do a wall ride one side to the other isn't it? I feel like turning right/ right wall rides are so much easier for me as well, but left just doesn't compute in my brain for some reason lol
Thank you so much! I don't know what it was about it, but it was harder than I thought it would be haha
I was still struggling with the wood lip jumps too, that is also something I am trying to figure why it's so hard for me. I am thinking that the sound throws off my timing and maybe it feels stiffer than dirt? But it took me 2 hours to get through the line (that's why I cased so much at the end haha). It took so long, because I kept getting wild on the wood jumps! I need to dial them in more next year.
Way to go, April! Great video, enjoyed the progression and especially Kyle's coaching technique!
It is so good to see you back Kyle!
The way you produce these videos and teach progression is simply epic!
Thank you thank you thank you!
Nice work guys completing the course must be the best feeling ever doing so well April, Kyle you are very patient and encouraging it's great to see good work you too!!
Awesome great determination coaching and riding skill. On fire 🔥
You guys are such a positive influence. Thanks for sharing your journey, Im sure we all hope to see more in the future.👍
Great video, WTG April you nailed it!
All these coaching sessions have been very helpful.
So pumped to see you go through that progression! Really reassuring that not everyone can handle things from the beginning but can get there with some perseverance

I’m a new rider, Love that feeling when successfully hit a feature for the first time. Love y’all’s channel, great info and presentation. And your dynamic together is great too.
Awesome Congratulations. You have really progressed. Kyle I hope you have completely recovered
Congratulations, April - I'm impressed with how far you've come and your determination to conquer these features. Kyle also deserves congratulations on achieving such a relaxed and pertinent teaching style, your observations and suggestions are perfectly tuned to each situation. It's a pleasure, and a learning experience, to watch the two of you working through a new situation.
Thank you!
Go April! You have come so far, it has been great to watch!
Great progression!
great ... so happy 4 u ... what an improvement 👍
Simply brilliant April. Well done and great coaching from Kyle. 👏👏👏
Great tips in the video. As a new mountain biker the drops and jumps are my greatest challenge right now. Great job on getting that line April!
Nice job, April! Way to stick with it. And great teaching, Kyle!
There could be a gap with alligators in the middle and Kyle would still say "ya, that's easy, you got it!" 😂
haha if he believed it was within my skill set for sure!
To be honest, the alligators wouldn't increase the difficulty of the gap xd but true Kyle way or reasuring is magic
Awesome and confidence inspiring. Thanks for sharing the journey
Thank you!
Yes! Yes! Yes! That was awesome! Good job April! An inspiration as always. Kyle-super-coach!! Thanx for a great video!!
awesome progression!
That was awesome April! Way to persevere !
Thank you!
Bravo! one day I hope to be able to do features like this!
Superstars!! You guys are awesome and we appreciate what you give back to MTB and the Boise area.
Thank you!
I took a break from the channel and am blown away by the fact how incredibly April's riding has progressed, Kyle's coaching is spot on as always.🤘
Congrats you two, I'm hooked for the second time and have a lot of catching up to do. 😉
That's cool , way to go !
Don’t underestimate your skill level April. You have plenty there. Good work on that whole line. Well done Kyle on keeping the positive / constructive feedback (you always do anyway ) and both of you having the patience to commit the time to the whole process 🤙🏼
Thank you!
Again, some great tutoring. Kyle you did it again. And April proves that a good teacher is not enough, a good student is just as important.
Now I hope people appreciate you, not just for the MTB stuff, but for a good teacher and a goot student can achieve great results.
Go on 👏
Amazing! I feel happy for you. I also see how important it is to not only “look ahead” but, to “look where you want to go.”
