I Built an 85ft Bike Jump That Was Still Too Short...
Вставка
- Опубліковано 2 жов 2024
- In this tutorial, I build an 85ft bike launch that could send you up to 70ft down the drop! This is a big one. Watch as I create the longest mountain bike trail feature I’ve ever had the opportunity to complete!
A lot of my projects tend to be on the visually intricate side, while this one is (extremely) deceptively simple. In true Backyard Trail Builds fashion, there’s always improvisation that keeps my job interesting. The end goal for all parties: to have fun! Watch through to the end to see how I tackle the latest curveballs!

Welcome to the official UA-cam Channel of Backyard Trail Builds - Detailed videos on Trail Building 🛠
Hi, my name is Seth Gebel and I grew up in Catawissa, Missouri just outside of St. Louis. I'm very fortunate to have a playground of woods to build whatever I see fit in because Missouri riders don’t get much feature time. I’d love to change that! Hopefully, someday we’ll be able to push a build-along that benefits the public here in St Louis for MTB skills progression. For now, though, I build every weekend and film for you all to watch!
➡️ On this channel, you'll find trail-building videos with music and step-by-step shots that keep you entertained and informed! Builds like road gaps, berms, jumps, drops, trail flow, skinnies, and many others!
Combining my love of mountain bikes, woodworking, and creating something from nothing, stick around to see just where my wild mind takes me next!
What started out as a passion project for building fun and exciting trails in my literal backyard, has grown into so much more. (Giant lizard bike jump, anyone?) Be sure to watch for builds, tips, and special offers each week.
If you love adventures and seeing wild and lofty ideas, come to life, subscribe to my channel for new videos every Sunday at 11 am Central! Hit that bell to never miss a video! 🔔

Amazing work as usual Seth, I’d love to try it some day!
If you do plan to make it to MO with VGY, please post a video that says you are coming. I would love to ride with you both.
Funny that Berm Peak and this guy are both called Seth and do basically the same shit lol, I got here by the channel Berm Peak
I’m a hobby woodworker/ mtber and I love all your skilled use of traditional joinery in these builds! I don’t think people understand how hard those joints are to get perfect. A dying craft indeed.
So hard 😅 haha thanks for seeing and appreciating my dude!
Yeah, I'm a woodworking mtber, and I came to say the exact same thing
Not a woodworker myself, but yeah my nephew and I watched this tonight both admiring your craftsmanship. Definitely a specialised craft you got there and sick that you use a mix of modern and traditional throughout your builds. Keep up the good work👍 Your Mtb Pals downunder 🇦🇺🚵♂️
don't think wood joinery's ever gonna die, too beautiful a craft, but it is becoming rarer and rarer in actual construction use
@@BackyardTrailBuilds bro UA-cam is doing your last two videos so dirty… never even saw them.. might be time to study more compelling titles and thumbnails? Adobe express is nice for that stuff.
Amazing craftmanship, videography, narration, editing etc. Bravo!
The work you put in was insane I hope everyone appreciates it!!
This guy isn't your average youtuber, the amount of really labor intensive work he does is mental
This man is insane, I think a lot of people really don't understand what this man has done the past months. He gets better day after day, and his vids are awesome to watch!!
You did it nice because you did it twice...You can keep that saying Jr...Great work!!
Wow! You've given me a reason to visit Missouri.
Just rode all the features today. They’re great. Thanks for making them awesome.
best feature builder ive seen! very impressed
Damn Seth, glad you extended that thing, that dude was definitely not going "trail speed" to manage to just barely clear the gap, would have been a lot of EMT action on opening day if it was left as is. As usual, some really nice wood working by you, love that you take the extra time to add some nice looking joinery where it'll be seen and appreciated. Hope that opening days goes really good, looks like a super fun trail for advanced riders and I bet there's a bunch of other trails for lesser skilled riders as well.
Dude awesome work! Watching this series has been incredible. Howler will be an incredible park, props to you and everyone involved! I hope to be there this weekend 🤠 I’m a little anxious about some of these massive features though, haha 😂
Haha same here. I haven’t ridden most of them 😅
Unbelievable work ethic!!! Young people take note.
Yoooo it's been too long. Every time a video is uploaded I just have to watch it.
As always, love the music / how you tie it into the videos
I’ve just rewatched all your trail/ feature builds in one binge, so proud of all the hard work you’ve accomplished man. Your wooden features are the best I’ve ever seen!
Great skills. I wish I had your energy. I'm 62
This series had been unreal 🙌
Really itching for that last video of everyone riding this park with all the finished features🤘
love your content and this project was very good
We watched you go from building your first double, to being a full blown contractor and hitting massive features
Man dude, I'm super impressed with your building skills and inspiration. Beautiful work!
This is like art
Haven't seen your channel in a minute. It's good to see you wearing that STIHL shirt with those manly arms.
Awesome job going over and above with the logging craftsmanship when you didn't have to. I'd like to suggest you replace the term "runners" with joists. Looks like an awesome ride, wish you were closer to GA.
Building vids are the best, such great work and your skills are amazing. Keep up the good work 🤘🏼
That is some good soundtrack you put at 6:40
my absolute dream job. very envious
Seth you're the man! Hoping to see first hand this weekend what's been keeping you away from bluff view all this time!
That polygon is the same bike I’ve been battling to buy, but life seems to always get in the way.
These vidéos literally make my day
Perfect again!
Not able to come over may 20th (I am from the Netherlands 🇳🇱) but hope you have a grand experience. Love the effort and work you put into it !!!
Well done!
Im very sad, cause im from germany and I cant make it that far till friday but I realy want to ride that bikepark. You and your Team spent so much Time for this. Its amazing❤❤❤
I loved how it all came together the boards not being cut in a line looks way better jagged than it does in a line that’s just my opinion tho I think it gives it more character but yea looks sooooo sickkkkk🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻
I havent watched ur videos for a few months and now ur making an 85 feet launcher lol
nice dude! glad ur back, for sure will visit howler
Been watching your videos for a while, and I just now realized you seem to be a fellow leftie🤜
I was there for Howler's first day and it was a blast! Super cool meeting you as well Seth... You'll be seeing quite a bit more of me.
Congrats to 200k🎉❤
Your features are sick! love what you did with this one.
I love how much time you spend caring for each piece of wood that goes into building these features! Those joints are no joke and take lots of patience to fit tight!
Great work
So very good
Sick! You are an impressive craftsman.
So awesome watching you build brother, this is killer!
Dang Seth, I remember you telling me how you were starting a UA-cam channel a few years ago. We were sitting the front of Melvin's in Eureka. It was some mountain bike event we were at. I can't remember what the event was. Me, Dave, you and your girlfriend. I was excited for you then, but seeing what you've done over the years has been amazing! Truly remarkable work buddy!
Holy crap man. Great work. That would have taken me a year to build that
heavy machinery shakes a man funky
Maaaaaad Respect dude. I dont even wanna know how mouch time did go into that Launcher or Drop haha.
“I want this thing to be fun” and terrifying in my opinion.
May 20th is my birthday!!!!! That's a heck of a road trip though. I live in Bellingham WA.
Im curious how fast this guy can cut and process a whole tree🧐
Wish I could go ride the trials they look so good
Love watching y'all build these, it's really incredible. And having to get it just right... Noice!
Love your work you do great quality builds
I think you could have build a Drop which would be as nice as th one you build - but with much less work...
there is way to much work got into that one Drop, holy moly
Very Nice vidéo.
Great job 👌
Dude this is awesome!
This is insane. I've just realised I'm actually not too far away. I will try my best to get up there on the 20th. I'm working in arkasas from the uk and luckily brought my bike with me
Incredible work. Really hoping you can make it out to Everstoke one day.
be my dream to win that bike. hopefully lucks on my side.
Just with the entrance to this, I don't know why he went through that much trouble when he could have built a tiny kicker to get riders up. Oh well though. Super sick feature!!!!
I love you vids! You are my favorite UA-camr, so thank you so much! I’m going to put out as many entries as I can, because I love to mtb but I’m only 15 so I don’t have th3 Money .to buy a full suspension
W bike moment
Mate. Tell us the truth. Did you make the ramp too short the first time because you love joinery so much? Great vid and awesome job on the construction!
Another great video, love your attention to detail and the added aesthetics to the feature.
Also love how you where able to put in your honesty and a little bit of self frustration of having to build it out further. Definitely makes it more relatable lol.
Great content as always! Looking forward to your next video!
Coppiyng Berm park kinda 😅. But thats the good think couse bike communitiy is getting bigger everyday. 🙌🏻🙌🏻
No copying what so ever. I don’t even watch UA-cam, man. There are different varieties of trees that look the same but you wouldn’t say a red oak is copying a pin oak. Haha. I feel it’s similar to that. We’re the same type of person but nobody’s copying anyone. Thanks you for watching regardless!
@@BackyardTrailBuilds Bro i am happy that you are doing such an amazing work, its awesome 🙌🏻.
Missouri is a ways away for me, being from Ontario, but just to get a chance to see your craftsmanship in person is worth the drive down. Another incredible build, love to see how Howler has come together. Expecting an incredible turnout for opening day! Congrats on the entire project!
How don’t you have 1 million subs yet? Your very talented at editing and your effort and content is 10/10. Please keep more coming!😁😁😁😁😁
Wow looks insane!
Every feature looks insane! good job guys. kind off a bummer I can't enter the giveaway since I am from Belgium.
I really like watching what you put together. You are an artist. I can't wait to come try out Howler Bike Park. I'm not sure I can make the opening. 😑One question. Does Howler allow eMTB's?
A bikepark like this will most likely be uplift
Signed up for the bike giveaway! This is an awesome build even if it's WAY above my skill level. Enjoyed watching the journey of these 4 massive features and can't wait to see more!
those are not bolts that anchor the posts into the rocks there sleeve anchors and spread open when you tighten. just me being a no it all. and good info for thos who may try and jam bolts in.
How does it look like summer and winter at the same time...
awww wish i could enter the competition but i live in nz so sad
Does the wood just not rot how does it stay intact for so long
I know I'm repeating, but it CAN NOT be understated the amount of work you encapsulated in a short video. You do most if not all everything yourself and with incredible skills, because you love it!! From the comments, I hope you can understand that there are some people who truly know how hard you work and create!! Brother, please take time to care for your back because speaking from experience later in life your body will break down from working the way you do! Seth keep up the journey and thanks for being Awesome! (Loved that you went barefoot putting down the decking)💪😅
I’ve never been on a bike trail or even thought about wood working, but the way you make these videos really sparks my interest in both. Keep doing you
why did you have to make it so long couldn't you have just made it like 2/3 the length with a bit of it going upwards?
Slopestyle/dirt jumper section?????
Seth doesn’t upload much, but when he does. It’s damn good 🤙
Can’t enter give away In the Netherlands 😢
Damn I graduate may 20th 🥺
Love the videos. Your music is a tad loud. Hard to hear you talking so i turn the volume up and then the music is extremely loud once you stop talking.
"This was not as easy as it looked." It didn't look easy. It looked SUPER difficult and impressive.
Oh snap...
Unfortunately the giveaway is not available in our region.
I love these stunts! They are really impressive!❤️
Oh dude I wish I could be there for the grand opening. It looks amazing. Not that I would be able to ride any of those features. Just spectating would be awesome. Can’t wait to see what your next project is.
As a carpenter from the uk I can really appreciate what you are doing with the timber!! Amazing work mate.
hands down the best builder I have come across... the stuff you build is not just solid.... its beautiful
This has been amazing to watch. I live up in KCMO, and cannot wait to get down there to try this place out! I’m also so thankful for you bunch putting Missouri on the MTB map!
mate surely your trail building companys sponsors me a visa to go to the states and do this wicked shit with ya. built some wooden features and its so rewarding when its done
Awesome work BUT don't be the D-Bag that loses an eye because he didn't wear eye protection
Hey are you familiar with silicosis? If so, ride your own ride, but if not you might want to look into it. You got a lot of life ahead of you and lungs are important, for stuff.
Wait but I thought bedrock was unbreakable?
Let's go
Love it! Keep up the good work
12:55 is that a JBL charge 5 or JBL extreme 3?
Can't wait to see that massive shark fin be ridden!
