You Blake have been an inspiration to me and my recovery from heroine and crack.. what!?!!. Yep! I spent£100 + every day on smoking it.. till I saw your videos . I once had a deep passion for mountain biking downhill. I detoxed and started using my bike once again. it was probably the only thing and never sold. My 2005 Kona explosif hardtail.. she's just as good as she ever was and believe me I've not touched that s*** since. It's been going well and I would like to thank you and the rest of your team for helping me big love Sean
Damn straight, wish I could get him to coach for an afternoon. My skills are pathetic compared to this tutorial and without the hours, days, weeks, months to put into learning the good and unlearning the bad, I could really use some help to help accelerate the process.
Yes, but please continue to do them on a 'normal' mountain bike please rather than a specific trials bike - makes it more relevant to mountain biking and more relevant for us poor folks with only one bike!! (and i do love trials as well) cheers, i have seen every gmbn video!!!
I’ve been mountain biking for around 20 years - the skills you really need are - good judgement (what to do and what not to do) - Balls - great balance - being calm -being mentally switched on - advanced braking skills - ability to jump off bike when it goes wrong - some ability to land/roll well - bunny hop (over roots and rocks) - step down You don’t need many other skills on a real mountain bike trail (Because it almost certainly will have no jumps in it), if you’re doing an artificial course you might also need how to jump a bit. So no need for fakie’s, stoppies, endo’s. You need manual for step down (Got to get your front wheel up), and the rest of it e.g. tight cornering and so forth, comes naturally.
Absolutely! Blake does trials series, and none of this trials specific bike stuff, that's just making it easy by having the right geometry....and most of of us ride enduro bikes anyway! Love the vids, keep up the awesome work!
Absolutely love this guy, I am a beginner getting into mtb with an interest in trails however I have zero skills on a bike.. So the advice here is awesome! Cant wait to get my new bike, try some of this and impress my missus
Finding something to fill the gap that give me a buzz and keeps me fit is avid send.. Blake thepatron saint of dirt jumping.. (thank you all for saving my life 😃
Great set of skills, Blake! This was a very good video. I've been struggling with the Endo and Endo turn; the thought of going OTB scares me. Yours was a new suggestion on it, and I'll give it a try! Cheers, man!
Another great tutorial video Blake!!👍This is always the first channel I go to when I want to work on a new skill! Also I would love to see another colaberation with Sam Pilgrim.👍
yes please. Blake is great teacher. if he thinks that his trials are appalling then he should come and look at mine. my trials are terrible. i can barely do any of those things except for the last one. this is why i need videos like this. to help me be better at mountain biking. =)
Hello GMBN Team. Thanks for all the awesome Videos, your content is top noch and I cant seem to get enough!!!! Have you ever done a Video on buying a used bike? I'm sure that I'm not the only one that would find your expertise on the subject extremely helpful. Thanks again and keep on sending it!!!!!
i learned a lot in all your GMBN tutorial.. but my heavy allu frame need extra power and effort .. hope to get carbon in the future.. thanks for uploading guys..
Blake is the man and should definitely do more triels. And nice progression on fakie... No more they can say that "Blakie can't fakie" ;) . Keep 'em coming. Curtis had a good idea about the video with Martyn and Sam, do a game of Bike on trials.
Who'd like to see Blake do more trials on his enduro bike? Let us know in the comments below 👇
Yes but also more on his hardtail please.
Me.
I want!!
You should do a video of learning trials with help from Martyn and Ali C
I recommend Sam Pilgrim and his buddy Tom Cardy, those two do some cool street trials that went kill you in the learning process.

John Saccoccio so how did it go?
I am also learning these days .
Agreed!
I do love Blake he’s an awesome presenter, super excited and genuine and then really good at explaining in these kind of videos
Yes, but please continue to do them on a 'normal' mountain bike please rather than a specific trials bike - makes it more relevant to mountain biking and more relevant for us poor folks with only one bike!! (and i do love trials as well) cheers, i have seen every gmbn video!!!
Thanks Mark 🤟
Er, that is a normal bike, not a trials bike
jo morken størseth notice his use of the word ‘continue’
I guess he meant hardtail
"Auchan" premium class bikes.

You and Neil are my favorite teachers and yeah, definitely, some more trially stuff. But this one was an excellent skill set to learn. Kudos to you.
Great to see you guys in one of my local pump tracks in Bristol!
