Downhill MTB Dirt Jump Line Philadelphia PA
This jump line is part of a pretty well known spot near Philly. There are 12 jumps, starting off super small like 3 foot gaps, up to 12ish foot at the bottom. It's pretty technical but flows perfectly once you figure out all the jumps. This one was so much fun many, many thanks to whoever built it.

FORT HILL Thunder Mountain Bike Park | Freeride Trail with Massive Gap Jumps
Переглядів 6 тис.4 роки тому
So I finally got up to Thunder Mountain to ride their new jump line Fort Hill. I've been hearing rumors that these are the biggest jumps in any bike park, with some people arguing about whether Crabapple Hits is bigger, but it doesn't really matter. These jumps are huge. Most of the gaps are 35 to 40 feet, and if you're hitting the sweet spots or going deep, you're going 40 to 45 . The funniest...
NEW Crap Chute Jump Trail Mountain Creek Bike Park 2020
Переглядів 3,1 тис.4 роки тому
Mountain Creek recently overhauled their biggest jump line Crap Chute. They added a big right hip which is pretty unusual, and cleaned up all the existing jumps. They are working on adding a step up to the left of the big table at the bottom, but it looks like it's going to be a while until that's done.

My Downhill bike has been in the shop for a while so I've been reconnecting with my trail bike, and trying out some old lines. The first one is a steep drop into this little valley. The second one is a little kicker into a bottomless landing you can go 20-25 feet on. The third one is a really technical drop into a super steep chute.

Steepest Trail at Brandywine Creek: Technical 50% Grade - YT Tues
Переглядів 5475 років тому
This "trail" is right by the Thompsons Bridge parking lot and is by far the steepest and most technical in Brandywine Creek State Park. It would easily qualify as a double black at any bike park, so it's pretty incredible that something so gnarly exists in Delaware. From top to bottom it is around 120 vertical feet. The top starts off with a short rocky section which is probably the hardest par...

I finally made it up to Killington VT Bike Park this past weekend. I was very excited to ride their jump trail Black Magic, but it was actually somewhat disappointing. The jumps are no bigger than Dominion at Mountain Creek, and while the trail is really long, it wasn't flowy at all. I found myself having to pedal as hard as I could between every jump, and even then I couldn't clear them all. M...

    • @northeastmtb1575

      If you're looking for jumps the best place to go is Mount Penn in Reading PA. Its a public park with a jump trail called A-Line that's easy to find on their trail map. They also have some way bigger jumps (namely the airlines) that aren't marked. Other than that there's not much in the way of jump spots that are easy to find around here. There are a few secret spots but they're going to be much harder to find without someone to show you where they're at.

    • @northeastmtb1575
      @northeastmtb1575 4 роки тому

      Personally I was more scared my first time on the Airlines, but that's not really a fair comparison. My first time on the Airlines I was on my 130mm trail bike, I had no one to tow me in, and I had never hit a gap jump anywhere near that big. My first time on Fort Hill I was on a downhill bike, someone towed me in, and I've gotten a lot better at jumping. All things held constant while the Airlines is sketchier, I'd say Fort Hill should be scarier, or at least more mentally draining since the consequences are higher, and there's so many more jumps, so you're not done after the first scary one XD. Have you hit the Airlines before?

    Hey man! Been watching ur vids for a long time now and am thinking of hitting the airlines 30 footer at mt penn. I was wondering if you know if you have to pedal at all after you take the steep sort of drop in line leading up to it?

    • @northeastmtb1575
      @northeastmtb1575 4 роки тому

      Henry, yes you definitely need to pedal!!! So for reference my 27.5" YT has a 34T in the front, and for the Airlines I'm usually on gear 6 of my 7 speed in the back, so that's the 10 tooth cog. Hopefully you can do the math to find a similar gear on your bike. In that gear, after I make the turn (and usually slide a bit) I pedal HARD, and I probably get 4 or 5 strokes in before the jump. If you don't pedal you will land flat, but you really can't go too fast because of the turn, so you should basically try to go as fast as you can within reason. The trick is really hitting that turn just right so you don't slide out, but so you maintain as much speed as possible. Note that I have not been there in 2 years now so I have no idea what kind of condition the jump is in. Also I usually clear all the little rocks off the turn, the lip and and the landing just to make sure an unexpected slip doesn't ruin my day/season. Good Luck and let me know how the jump looks if you make it up there!

      NorthEastMTB Thank you SO much for the tips!! I will for sure be letting you know if I end up hitting it and i was there a few weeks ago and it seemed to be in pretty good shape however I’ll probably bring a shovel and fix it up a bit before I hit it! You’re awesome!!!❤️❤️

      No worries, and they set the new hip up so it's really easy to hike and practice over and over, which is good if you suck at turning right like me XD

      Larry, unfortunately I don't think these jumps are really rideable anymore, they recently built a housing development right next to them, and no one has been taking care of them. Do you live in MD or PA?
