i've said it before Jeff, but it's an inspiration to see such a skilled and finesse rider at your size. 98% of the pro bike riding community are slim, jockey sized guys, as a fellow clyde, it can be hard to relate sometimes.

Cheers Jeff, this is BikingBaloo writing, from small Luxembourg Country/Europe. Me and my old Motorbike-Trials-Friends (from the 80's) love your video clips!!😎 Amazing and incredible! And now, with a crying and a smiling eye, we must recognize that we were born 30 years too early! 😉 But today's bike techniques and your clips, are so amazing and infectuous, that now, after more than 30 years of abstinence, we just “returned“ (as nearly grandpa's) and we restarted to practice our trail and trials skills....on E-Mountainbikes!! 😎 What a fun!!! 👍😂 Thanks so much for your great learning stuff!! Cheers, Trail Boss....and stay healthy,......everybody!! 👋
Love this Jeff because what you show is attainable by an 'advanced intermediate' rider like me, with a little practice. Too many videos make the impossible look easy and it's demoralizing to regular folks.
Thank you, Jeff! I’ve been using my track stand and hopping skills that you taught everyone, on some really rooty, rocky, uphill trails. Those skills are game changers in getting through those tough sections and not stopping when I get hung up, like I used to do.
Hi Jeff. My name is Alex. I`m from germany and 52 years old. Besides from an all- mountain bike I lately bought a 24" street- trials bike to learn some basic techniques of mountainbiking better. I really like your style of riding and your trials skills are amazing. I find you`re very laid back and not at all self centered. Which in my opinion has a very positive effect on your how to videos. I find them great for learning and understanding- so please make some more of them (maybe also some trials skills specific). Greatings from heidelberg and ride on.
Jeff, thanks for the reminder. Was wanting something to do besides hop on the boring trainer and not quite ready yet to practice my wheelies since knee isn't strong enough for awkward bails and such. Love me some slow tech and love me some tech climbing, so great way to pass the time. Fairly passable at the track stands, but hoping the wheels around is definitely my weak point, so challenge accepted, hoping that in the 2 weeks of 24/7 curfew I would have greatly improved my ability to move around in tight spaces.
Great video great info! In the 2 years I’ve been mountain biking and watching videos to learn all the techniques this is the first I’ve seen about this type of movement and I can really use it. Thanks from one Jeff to another!
Finally! - I thought, a very simple looking skill that should be easy to do, especially as I can already trackstand. Only had one sesh so far..., but failed miserably!!! I could only just get that front wheel off the ground (& felt very unbalanced) and as for rotation, ha! I just couldn't overcome the grip of the tyre. You make it look so easy Jeff, thanks for the great vid., I'll give it another go :-)
I struggled with stationary balancing and I instantly got better at it with your first drill, so thank you very much! I loved the video and am definitely going to practice all the drills.
Thank you for your videos! You are such an inspiration. My buddy and I rode Farlow Gap recently and being on the trail gave me a new appreciation for how easy you make it look. I will be trying to conquer these skills over the next few weeks!
I love your videos and look forward to every new episode! 😂 but I have to remind myself, it’s not required to be so technically sound, to thoroughly enjoy riding trails and mountain biking. But I am progressing and improving over time thanks!
Great video, I agree its a great opportunity to upskill Thanks for showing how to use your hips to swing out the back wheel, I was trying to force it around.
Another Great video Thank you and keep them coming please, We have one local techincal trail that is hard enough to go down and deemed impossible to ride up, Im going to practice these skills there so I can blow my buddies minds next time we can ride as a group...
@@JeffLenoskyTrailBoss Wompatuk state park Hingham Ma, To clarify its actually one small section of the trail that that is particularly difficult and has multiple small boulders (1' to 2' )you need to navigate through with a tight left turn while climbing. Appreciate the response.
I’m lucky to call fruita my home but every time I see you go UP Horsethief, it blows my mind! I’ve pieced together about 2/3 of it going down, let alone up. At 6’4” I feel I’m at a disadvantage climbing. Will definitely practice some of these techniques
Haha - Goddamn it. Been trying to learn to trackstand the last few days and the videos I watched were no help at all. What I found worked was setting up a slalom course out of tin cans on my driveway and going through as slow as possible. As soon as I stopped trying to trackstand it became a lot more natural which is pretty much the advice you have given here. Will watch the video a few more times and try front and back wheel lifts once I have track stands down a little more. Great video.
Thanks Geoff! I was just having that conversation with someone learning this stuff today. It's all super difficult and strenuous when you start. As you refine your technique it will feel much easier. Thanks for coming along on the ride.
Thanks for the video Jeff! Your climb up Horsethief really inspired me to work on my slow speed bike handling skills. I've already made a some good progress and my climbing skills have increased! This video helps break down those techniques and I'm already looking forward to getting out and continuing to practice. Stay safe and thanks again dude!
That push-up reference for wheel lifts is a good one! Thanks! 😃
Thanks Katy!
Thanks Jeff , If i stay in lock down for 10 years i think i will get it lol
Haha keep trying!
It'll take half that time to master it yes...longer to sustain the level of endurance needed to keep dolling it out on the trail like this dude!
Finally, a useful and fun quarantine video - The Big Lenosky is the hero we needed!
Thanks James!
Saving us from going crazy!
I only trust two mountain bikers on youtube, seth's bike hack and Jeff Lenosky. End of story. You are amazing biker and thank you for the lesson!
WOW! That's a compliment since there's some good riders on UA-cam! Thanks!
Jeff lenosky is amazing. You should also check out Jeff kendallweed. He Rips!
GMBN and Phil Kmetz are worth watching too
Fabio Wibmer is probably the best mtb rider I’ve ever seen
i've said it before Jeff, but it's an inspiration to see such a skilled and finesse rider at your size. 98% of the pro bike riding community are slim, jockey sized guys, as a fellow clyde, it can be hard to relate sometimes.
thanks James!
Jeff your videos are the best
Thank you Aaron, that means a LOT!!

Love the extended music track for scrolling the comments! Such a useful video at any time, thanks Jeff 🙏🏻🤟
Nice one! I still like messing around in the driveway working on stuff like this, you can always use a tune up!
Love this Jeff because what you show is attainable by an 'advanced intermediate' rider like me, with a little practice. Too many videos make the impossible look easy and it's demoralizing to regular folks.
I'm glad you like it!
This actually helps, because I had a really hard time lifting my rear wheel...
Thank you for the video!!
Thanks, Glad it helped!
This was an awesome video
Oh yeah this is definitely informative, thanks for sharing

Thanks Jeff! Awesome stuff. Keep it coming!
Thanks Jon!
My hometown (Sydney, AUS) is again in lockdown. Thanks Jeff Lenosky, these skills are super fun and keeping me sane right now.
I've been really needing this. I've been hanging around and making youtube videos as I am under lock down.
You're awesome. Thank you. This is very needed
World class stuff. Cannot wait to work on these skills. Some of these New England climbs are tough😬
I'm going to practice these exercises thanks for posting!
Let us know how it goes!
Excellent video man. You broke it down into pieces so that even an old guy like me has a way to attack learning those skills.
Thanks Jeff!
Even i cant do that as it seems so easy, every time i watch you i get motivated to keep practicing. Thank you dear Jeff you are amazing.

I love it there!
Thanks, Jeff. That was very helpful.
