    Hands down the best tutorial on how to start with whips. All other videos show advanced whips that don't do anything for those who are afraid to even slightly turn the handlebars in the air. Great job!

  • @anthonycongiano8890
    @anthonycongiano8890 4 роки тому

    Excellent video and sensational progress! Way to go! One tip though, your mic pack, just the same as a walkie on your duty belt, does not go at the center of your back or over your spine. If you land on your back, that's the same as landing on a brick, on your spine. Ideally, you pack should be off center but behind your arm. Lower your arm to your side, slide the mic pack or walkie over until it touches the back of your arm. That keeps it off your spine and off the point of your hip bone.

    • @Fluidride
      @Fluidride  4 роки тому

  • @tsnaza250
    @tsnaza250 4 роки тому

    I'd probably start packing cookies on my rides, if I thought I'd get some tips out at the trails...something to think about.
    The reply to the kid was priceless "Look behind you." One of the highlights of the vid, right there.
    The whip still eludes me, after nearly 20 years of relatively serious riding. One thing that's not helping is that I'm probably thinking too much about it.
    I would say that you're spot on with learning the mechanics of the movement. Clearly that works, and it's important that people know that "baby steps" and repetition is what builds on proficiency. There aren't any magic pills when it comes to athletic feats.
    This video was really well put together, both content and audio/video production. The inverted bike trick is something I have yet to try. It seems so beneficial and so fundamental (mechanics again), I'm glad that was in there. I like that you've got a microphone on and you can keep talking while you're riding, instead of stopping and starting throughout the clip. I don't see many vids that are set up that way, so I hope others see that and take notes!!
    Again, you're on point with learning/practicing the mechanics - they'll progress your riding AND your teaching abilities!!
    Great "how to" video, now I'm gonna go make some cookies...

    • @Fluidride
      @Fluidride  4 роки тому

      Thank you for such a thoughtful comment!! And yes we'll trade cookies for riding tips anytime! 🤣 I'm super honored that you found the video useful and easy to watch.
      Honestly the biggest thing that changed this for me was taking the bar turn *out* of it completely, and just focusing on pulling my shoulder back in the air. This started bringing the back of the bike around a little. Once I got a feel for it, I added the bar turn back in for a little bit more dramatic movement.
      Let me know how it goes! And how those cookies turned out! -Linnea

    This is so good, Linnea. You're riding is so quiet, relaxed and smooth. I'm on the east coast and there aren't many trail systems with jump lines, so I definitely need to do some searching and/or hit a bike park or two. One of my main goals for next year is to be better at jumping (and with style) and this really inspires me. Such a great job.👍

    Awesome whips! Very helpful tip on turning with your core and shoulders! I thought it was just to try looking back to initiate the whip. Will try your tips soon on my kicker ramp 🤙🤙

    • @Fluidride

      So stoked you enjoyed the video. The thing that really unlocked this movement for me was to take the bar turn *completely* out, and just focus on pulling one shoulder back. It was tough at first, because I felt so much less steezy in the air, or almost like I had taken a step backwards... and then I felt it 🤣🤣 I hope this practice goes well - keep us posted if you run into any barriers! -Linnea

    Great video! I've also done the floor practice, and it helps big time to get the feel of moving the bike around. I think the big thing with whips is mostly mental. Overthinking what you're doing and not riding loose. I've been riding for about 7 years now and still have issues with em. I have a bunch of riding vlogs on my channel about learning them too. Very helpful video, ya gained a sub. Keep up the killer work!!!

    Do you find yourself sliding forward on your seat with the angle that drastic? Or is it the camera/bike angle?

    • @Fluidride
      @Fluidride  4 роки тому

      Ah this has been an adjustment in progress 🤣. Over the spring, I had it tiled way back because I kept sliding into the middle when I was working on wheelies. But when I was doing all-day rides over the summer, the forward seat angle has been the winner. I'm on the small side for this bike, so it feels better for long days 🤪 -Linnea
