Same here, you were in my reccomendations and im actually shocked how you "only" have 11k subs when doing videos that are this entertaining and with such high quality. Good Luck for the Future :D
Such a cool idea. Crazy how many pieces need to be engineered when it’s just a “wooden ramp”! Awesome seeing the solutions you found and it coming to fruition.
Yeah, at first I was having trouble seeing where he was going with some of the design, wondering if it could be done more simply (and indeed it could), but it's really awesome how the load-bearing bar automatically latches and releases as you crank the winch (obviously with the appropriate backing-off of the winch tension). Awesome job! Just subscribed.
@@alejandrobungard422 the real thing to "😂" about, is the irony that you can't type a sentence, yet here you are complaining that "he ruined it" that's the comedy I find in the situation... Sorry I didn't assume your incapable of completing a sentence just because your UA-cam name is Alejandro...
Should have been a sign to switch the approach when it became that hard to crank - some simple pulleys between the winch and the load would have required more rotations, but kept the cranking easier. Not sure if the winch might have still failed eventually, but at least it would have had less force on the handle when it gave out.
You are going to get big my friend, this is a great series and keep the momentum going! I think I was here in your 2nd or 3rd video and I'm super happy to see u growing! Keep it up dude 👍
The gravel for the post is super smart! That’s how hydro poles are put in, 5-10ft deep and heavy compacting every foot of 0-3/4” gravel with a membrane if the ground is uneasy!
You could call it "Jack of all Trades" hence how it accommodates all level if riders. I loved the locking mechanism! So simple and so so smart! Loved the video completely! Good to hear your wife is ok too!
When you use a pulley like that and putting a lot of tension on it, put something over the cable/strap like a chain or a blanket. If it fails it won't come back at you full force. Learned that one the hard way
As someone that works in the engineering/production business and loves to shred on my mountain bike I have mad respect for this build! You sir are a genius and y’all are doing great things with this channel! SEND IT!
The Shredist my family and I are looking to start a biking channel for families. What was the hardest part to get your Channel going? Camera gear? Time for content making?
My father always used raw tar for tree posts when example building a bridge with direct connection to the ground. Saves the wood for years on. Great video dude!
Love this! Just remember that all of the load is being applied to the three screws on each of the stopping points. My guess is that you’re fine. But I’d personally pull each of those off and slap on some outdoor wood glue then reattach! Awesome build
Yes indeed. The wood might split in two pieces on the line of the screws. Also a metal in wood-connection will wiggle itself loose with time under the load. Fine for quite a while tho anyway! In future maybe D3/D4 wood glue and proper clamping or wooden dowels (think 20mm round peg or sth) would make a stronger connection.
Hey man I found your channel yesterday, and I’m honestly amazed that you only have 22k subscribers, your video quality, cinematography and narration are all excellent! Keep making these amazing videos, please! Not to mention you’re really good at building and watching you work is tons of fun! Not to mention you’re really funny! Sorry if I droned on but there’s just so much about these videos I love!
This feature has been build with 200 IQ, to be honest! Really nice build! I wanna be able to make something like a trail in my backyard myself in the future, would be a dream come true lol. Keep up the work man!
Hey Back in the day I built an adjustable jump at my Mt Bike Park in North Carolina. The Tar River Trails (not the ones in Rocky Mount NC) were in Granville County. It began as a simple triangular portable wooden kicker built by a friend. It was not a practical thing as it was heavy, too short and needed extra support. So he threw it out of his truck at my trail head. I was sitting on the porch of the club house looking at it, thinking what the hell am I going to do with it. And developed a plan. it was decked on the hypotenuse of a right triangle about 4 feet long and 2 feet high. In my head, I rolled it over and thought about a pivot at the long point. The next day I cleared a line on the side of a slope. Laid in a curved cedar ladder bridge from ground level to a beam 2' high where I bolted the pivot. Set 2 posts in the ground at the other end and drilled a series of holes 2" apart. The Kicker could rotate between the posts and was supported by a steel rod in the holes. With the hypotenuse on the bottom, as it arced it stayed on the rod. I then supported the posts by triangulating with a cheater ramp. The surface went from flat to raised 2'. The transition at the pivot got rough as the kicker was raised above about 6-8". So I made a plywood insert over the pivot that curved with the unit as it was raised and was simply slid in and locked when the angle got difficult. It turned out to be amazing. For a decade many of the Raleigh area riders developed their skills on the Monster Jump. A good session would start with it flat and gradually be raised till complete pucker set in. Maybe a dozen riders ever hit it at full Monster. Which could launch a rider to heights of 8-10' above the ground and send them 30-40' down the slope for a drop of maybe 15' below the ramp. ua-cam.com/video/y-0a8j1EDY0/v-deo.html gallery.mtbr.com/showphoto.php/photo/25900/title/alex-ajustable-jump/cat/514 gallery.mtbr.com/showphoto.php/photo/20504/title/adjustable-jump/cat/500 ua-cam.com/video/MnerjQ3KcVY/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/EiESnvOn39Y/v-deo.html
Great vid and amazing wife as well, helping you out and being a good sport about things not being 100%. Very cool to see how well ya'll get along. Mt suggestion for the post is to burn the bottoms, it is what they do so log cabins last longer, easy to search it on here for how to vids. You got a new sub here!
really cool concept. Could see this being very useful in a private spot where space is limited. 3:45 it would be better to use nails to secure these “teeth” as they have a lot higher sheer strength compared to screws.
Awesome build from such a simple concept. Makes my newly built pallet wood drop seem positively Stone Age but you’ve inspired me to build more. Keep up the good work.
Fork, now I feel bad I didn't keep watching until the end before commenting... I'm glad Sarah is okay!! Also I have yet to say but nice ink both of you.
Amazing channel...different approach...no commercial style...so relaxed and passioned explanations...I’m sure it’ll grow fast because you have a very high potential
This is brilliant, I think we are going to see a lot more of these pop up on amateur builds, it's a fantastic way to scale up, or change things for riders of differing skill level. Thank you for this
So I had the video on .25 speed to watch your air off the drops then got to hear the post jump remarks at that speed and it had me laughing so hard. Give it a try for a laugh. Great video, awesome build man!
Damn I’m glad she’s good! My dads buddy was working on his sled (snowmobile) in probably 2003 or so, and the same kind of thing happened with the jack, the lock broke or gave out and the handle spun, then crushed/cut off half of his finger. Not trying to make anyone squirm, it’s just those handles get rowdy! Lol, awesome video and awesome build man! That’s a cool design on the drop too! YEEWWW!!!! \m/
Jim, that was awesome! I love building stuff and mountain bikes and can’t believe I haven’t run across your channel before. Now I have something to do tonight😁👊🏻
Fill a 5 gallon bucket halfway with your sealant and just dip the post and allow it to drip off. This is the easiest I've found for that stuff. You can also find a thinner style that works well.
Nice I like the creativity of this build. I have also been trying to come up with cool ideas like this for my channel. I am glad to see you wife didn’t get seriously hurt. Stay safe and keep on building!!
This is sick! I can see this at the park now with a sign leading up that would let you know height placement for that day. Solid carpentry skills as well!
That’s so dope !! The landing . If u dig out the landing towards the bottom of like two ft deep . So it has more of pop when u come outta of it ! Well just an idea . Keep up the sick vids!
Great channel! Just stumbled across it. If it hasn't already been suggested - Call it the "Broccoli Drop" Also, add a gauge on the side, so that at a glance as you approach the drop you can see the height that the drop is set to. 👍👍
Just a quick word of advice (not that you need it), if you buy a ripping chain for your chain saw you will achieve a much better final finish on the posts/ boards that you cut with it. Ripping chains are normally skip (50% less teeth), so not only is the chain designed to cut with the grain, it also allows the speed of the saw to be maintained and prevents "bogging" of the motor, all of which contribute to the final finish on the timber. Saves a lot of work! Nice project!
I have a skip tooth chain on there I bought to help, is there a different style of chain specifically made to rip? I would definitely like for the cuts to be quicker...
@@TheShredist. 1st of all I wasn't criticising at all, just saw you having to work hard to plane up the upright post. Normal (cross cut) chain, full house or skip is ground at 25º. Ripping chain is normally 30º or more, so less chop and more slice. You could create a ripping chain yourself by re-grinding a 25º skip chain to 30+º to create a ripping chain (or you could buy one 😉). I have a LogoSol (Swedish) mill and the difference between ripping and cross cut chain is dramatic in terms of finish on the timber and strain on the saw. Size of saw (HP) is also a factor when milling. A well-sharpened ripping chain should leave an almost planed cut, as opposed to the ribbed cut you have, the difference between chop and slice. Glad your Wife came out relatively unscathed, that could have been a lot worse if her face had got involved! All the best, Tim
I didn't take it as criticism at all! I legit appreciate the input, I'm definitely going to look into getting a ripping chain, might make ripping planks as a source of building materials more realistic!
Its awesome! It's really nice to be able to drop higher and higher to the same landing. It's a weird mental game, but when you set it higher, there's a little are fewer nerves since the drop is familiar, it's only the height that's different. Next the landing needs some improvment!
Great project! Liked it a lot. Good engineering skills involved. You should maybe motorize it and make the height be controlled from the dedicated iPhone app :)
The bruised'n'drop? I discovered your channel with your Meta HT AM review and you're killing it! This 2nd half of the video just put a big smile on my face to you stoked it worked out! Enjoy the ride!
This is epic! Was just throwing around the idea of trying to make an adjustable drop, but it will have to be movable and considerably smaller then this one. Great video! Excited to have found your channel.
Nice video! Love the content on this channel and there is no doubt that you will be in the top on youtube for Mountainbiking in short time. Keep up the good work! Shred safely.🤙🏼
For the posts pull them out and char the wood the charred wood will prevent rot much longer then any products you can buy. I’ve found a tiger torch works best. Cheers keep the content coming.
Please call it the “Crank Plank” because of the crank mechanism!!!
L

What an awesome video and project! Nice work dude.
Thanks man! Big fan of your channel, thanks for watching!
Just found out this channel, the quality, is so dope. If you keep grinding, soon you will blow up.

Rems Nalivaiko sub to my channle
I totally agree. You should be stoked
agreed
Such a cool idea. Crazy how many pieces need to be engineered when it’s just a “wooden ramp”! Awesome seeing the solutions you found and it coming to fruition.
I probably accumulated 2 days time just staring at the thing trying to make it work haha
The Shredist looks like it paid off!
Yeah, at first I was having trouble seeing where he was going with some of the design, wondering if it could be done more simply (and indeed it could), but it's really awesome how the load-bearing bar automatically latches and releases as you crank the winch (obviously with the appropriate backing-off of the winch tension).

It so smooth that it looks fake
Call it the “crank plank”
The “Cranken”
Release the Cranken!
Really like this one!
@@Nellosphere perfect 🏒🏒
You may want to dig in the landing so its a softer landing on level 3, The landing seems a bit flat for that big of a drop. Awesome video!
The landing is too cloase, grate idea and proyect but he ruined it

Thanks! Took quite a while to build, but it turned out awesome!
The “Morph” Drop. Being an engineer myself I can only admire and enjoy this amazing build. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Lol. The “my good hand” at the end was my favorite part 😂
😂
“Come on now make it bigger. I think you just like cranking the thing.”
Nice.
That was pretty scary with your partner and the spinning death handle 😶
Yeah, it was super scary, she's all good now though, still a few weeks until she can ride again though.

Sick! Glad you enjoyed it! 🤘
Gool build idea really like the Crank Plank. Great craftsmanship too 👍
this is really cool. you should add a longer gradient ramp for a smoother landing.
Fill a 5 gallon bucket halfway with your sealant and just dip the post and allow it to drip off. This is the easiest I've found for that stuff. You can also find a thinner style that works well.

For sealing wood I use old motor oil mixed with some diesel, not the most eco friendly thing, but if done correctly the trees might outlive you.
This is wild. What a great idea and a killer way to progress naturally!
Its awesome! It's really nice to be able to drop higher and higher to the same landing. It's a weird mental game, but when you set it higher, there's a little are fewer nerves since the drop is familiar, it's only the height that's different. Next the landing needs some improvment!
Every skills park needs something like this. Sick build! 🔥
Such a nice and creative build ! That's some Seth's Bike Hacks level woodwork. Impressive !
Hey this is cool, would love to see more trail videos, and keep riding
Great project! Liked it a lot. Good engineering skills involved.
You should maybe motorize it and make the height be controlled from the dedicated iPhone app :)

Great video happy the wifey is fine, could've been worse. Shes a keeper! As for naming the drop what about FreeFall or The Shite! 👍🇺🇲
When I first saw that hand crank winch I was thinking it could end bad if it snapped or suddenly let go. Glad she's ok
This is great!! just found your channel and watched all your vids, keep updating us with your awesome builds! cheers!!
Glad your lady is OK. She's a trooper. The box looks like a giant whistle. The salmon ladder drop. It goes to 11.
Haha it totally does look like a whistle
this is one of the best Ideas Iv seen! well done brother! sucks about your wife's arm but good to hear it is not broken. hope it heals fast.
Great build! The engineering on that drop is awesome
This is epic! Was just throwing around the idea of trying to make an adjustable drop, but it will have to be movable and considerably smaller then this one. Great video! Excited to have found your channel.
Great video and excellent idea! It combines my two favorite things: wood working and mtb's 😁 👍
i found your channel the other week it wont be long before your upthere with seth and alex and jordan your viideos are amazing :)
great concept, great product! love it! hope Sarah is OK.
edit: your dog is adorable!
(and stoked!)

Nice video! Love the content on this channel and there is no doubt that you will be in the top on youtube for Mountainbiking in short time. Keep up the good work! Shred safely.🤙🏼
thats an amazing idea.
i suggest you put a roller on the bottom side of the crank strap so that it doesnt wear out over time on the wood.
That's one improvement I'd like to make, just trying to figure out what exactly I should use there as a roller...🤔
"Ratchet & Crank" or "Ratchet & Jank"
Or..... Ratchet & Plank!
Loved those games when I was a kid
I am sooooop glad I found your channel. This alone was worth it, all the rest is pretty awesome too.
Keep up the good work!
Jack-in-the-drop
Genius!! Looks epic. Maybe build the landing a little steeper if you want it smoother.
Definitely will be!
For the preservation of the wood underground look up Shou Sugi Ban, it is a Japanese art form for preserving Wood and it works really well
For the posts pull them out and char the wood the charred wood will prevent rot much longer then any products you can buy. I’ve found a tiger torch works best. Cheers keep the content coming.
