What's the gnarliest descent you've ever ridden? Share with the community down below! 👇
All I’m going to say is brown Canyon
Aigas fun run or Cawdor hidden trails. Simple for some, scary to me.
🤘
Probably 1837 at Mount Sainte Anne, QC, Canada
👀🤘
You know it gets dangerous, when your GMBN Host has the full face on 😂😂
We only bust them out for the big leagues!
😂😂
Pro tip: don’t watch 3rd person footage of yourself…it always feels faster than it looks 😂
Waaaaaay faster. And higher, also.
I'm torn between whether first or third looks easier tbh guess it depends on if its steep or jumping distance
Sooo true! 🙈
and this is contra productive to confidence :D
What helped me as a beginner , after getting a feeling for the handling, was speed. Speed can actually smoothen your ride specially with 29" ✌️
I'm just starting to get into mb, when I was younger this wouldn't phase me as much, but at 63 I'm kinda leary of some of the technical aspects of going down hill, I like the video and the information you talked about, I will be able to learn from watching your videos, thanks
I want to ride a mountain bike. It's so scary. The amazing MTB technology is the best.👍👍
I think you can add one thing to practice as a downhill safety factor and that's dismounting at the rear of the bike if you get in trouble . It takes some practice and muscle memory . Save you from all otb's if done properly . If your really good you can grab your seat post from the back end to control the bike .
Great tips!
4:18 Ah, especially when you're riding a hardtail, line choice is very much emphasised.
Lots'a love, cheers, & Mabuhay, from tropical Philippines! #RideOn #KeepBiking
When I ride hardtail I always ride the hard line so when I ride the easy line it’s easier I know it’s more slow but it will make it easier later
Great Video, great haircut Rich 👍🏻👍🏻 Owning it !!!
Im getting better every day because of your videos!!
Great to hear Jose!

Thank for this 👊
Great tips! Thanks
Glad it was helpful Scott!
Great video. Handy tips 👍🏼
Thanks! 👍
Good vid rich nice one
@ 49 seconds, ya gotta love a bike with no chain on it haha
Yo, could you test a Decathlon MTB? Like rockrider EXPLORE 520 or AM 50S. I couldnt find a proper test on YT... thanks🤘
I'm a bit confused. I've seen video tutorials that say you should keep in a forward attack position in order to keep good front wheel traction and control. But here and some other videos talk about shifting your weight back on descends.
On steeper stuff you want to. I used to think the same thing but when it gets steep enough you will understand!
Too much forward lean causes more load on the front shock, and if you happen to hit a sudden pothole, upcut, downcut, etc. during a steep descent, you will fly over the bar eventually. Keeping your body back, and 'springy' on the knees, takes those sudden stops off the front tyre helping it to get over obstacles, giving you a more balanced stance, and time to chance body position for getting the rear tyre over the same obstacle. Of course if there is a jump, and depending on the slope, too much back lean will get you in as much trouble as a front lean. It's all about gravity and abilities of the rider in the end really :)
Okay, so it seems quite situational, as many things in mountain biking :) Thanks for the answers!
I was going to ask the same question as I have always been told to avoid unweighting the front as you lose grip and risk washing out. I have a thumb injury which bares this out after exiting a steep shoot onto a fireroad and the front just losing grip. I think the key is to be mobile on the bike, don't get stuck with your arse over the back wheel all the way down, just move around as and when required.
Some say that hanging over the back wheel while descending or dropping off steep sections is the oldskool way of riding because the modern geometry allows for a more forward positioned descending method, any thoughts on that?
watch remy metailler improve in one day hismethod is about staying tall on the bike and it works
I’m old and I can confirm this is accurate. It’s a hard habit to break just less exaggeration scooting back.
guy talks safety, wears a full face and is teaching descending to beginners, yet doesn't wear gloves, the 100% easiest and most important protective gear after your helmet to prevent injury.
Facts
Hey, quick question ...¿Which is that Ergon saddle you are using?
The first thing you've said.. Actually is incorrect. The best way is not to"just ride trails", but to isolate necessary skills and train them in a controlled environment. Only after having necessary skills down for the trail, it would be beneficial to ride it to get used to using the skills you've learned and progressing to harder trails with same skill set or getting new skills for different trails
Question: can i do that with a cheap bike pls respond
Sure! As long as the bike is safe to ride, the price tag doesn't matter
Yeah as stated, make sure it is trail ready. You could still ride an XC bike down a dh course (sorta) but don't expect to belt it full speed. Work with the bike and know the limits.
Hey Prajwal, Really great advice, thanks for the awesome comment! 🤘
Ok thank you everyone!
You need a dropper post, or lower the saddle by hand, in order to get your bum back enough.
First things first get or have good insurance .
Second don't fear the crash .
Third ...remove the brakes .
After about 3 years the last Keurig stopped working ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxBrV-RbF5Nk0Rlt9i15aao-YMzqzTG8Vf initially was able to unblock, however eventually we couldn't fix. That one was a replacement unit sent by the manufacturer after we had problems with our very first Keurig. This works fine (lol, at least for now) however I didn't realize the water reservoir was so much smaller than our prior unit. With 2 people having one or two cups of coffee each morning, it seems like I'm refilling it daily. Otherwise just happy to have the convenience of pod coffee vs. making a morning pot.
If you suggest wearing gloves should you not actually wear them?
This is exactly what I'm doing when descending. Trail or highways, I guess I'm a pro now 😆 just kidding. I'm not, I just like downhills that's why 😆
My biggest concern about descending on 29er is to get my arse eaten out by the rear wheel!
Haha my hack is being 6’3 lol 😂
