Thank you for this video! Earlier I have learned from Lee McCormack (book and video’s) that to have more power, you have to lower your heel on the paddle that’s up front, and also that you must lift up the heel of your other foot on the back paddle. This way, you have more power paddling up hill, but your video added some more wise knowledge! The wedge! Now this explaines for me that it becomes easier to practice the heavy feet and light hands. Your theoretical explanation makes it all clear to me. Keep up the good work!
Thanks a lot, Rob! Yes, Lee also has some really great knowledge in his videos.
Interestingly if you partake of 'Lee's hinge' (once riding and not on the chairs) method you end up in Roxy's technique almost by default.
I used the same technique to prevent feet from getting bumped off the pedals on drops or chunky sections of trail. It creates a nice balanced way of keeping both feet securely planted at all times.
Awesome 🤩
This “wedge” concept is amazing. I struggle very much to keep the rear pedal heel down due to lack of flexibility. It makes perfect sense to lift that rear heel but pressing on the pedal to create the “wedge” force. This lesson is right up there with the most important ones about this sport. Thank you so much! 🤟🏼
Thanks you, Dennis!
Just two rides now with focusing on keeping a wedge between pedals and I'm already dropping turns and descents faster and with more confidence. Thanks again, Roxy! ❤️👍
Thanks so much, Gabe! Great to hear!
I just started mountain biking in May of this year. I've watched hours and hours and hours of videos and probably an equal amount of time on the trails. Came across your channel today and love the way you describe things. The breakdown of everything is great! And the take a step back to take 2 steps forward! I'll be spending a lot of time on your videos. Thank you!!
Thanks a lot Bobby 💞 Welcome to my channel. Have you started my free home training Trackstand course yet? It’s even more broken down than then things I offer on UA-cam - because my courses are about really allowing you to build skills, vs “just” understanding them. ☺️
In my younger years I practiced the Korean martial art of Soo Bahk Do for 12 years. Ingrained in my memory are various stances and the purpose and application of each. Roxy does a great job of explaining why the positioning of the feet are so fundamentally important to balance over the bottom bracket and all of the implications. Thank you Roxy for explaining the nuance - I am an instant fan and follower of your scientific/athletic process!
Thanks a lot, Chris! Yes, there are many parallels to martial arts, and I am happy to hear that you as an athlete with experience agree. What I specifically love about martial arts and something that is almost fully neglected in MTB coaching. That is:
in Martial Arts the focus is on SOLID fundamentals and repeating athletic moves MANY times before progressing too quickly. In MTB most people just bu a bike with a lot of travel and ride gnarly trails, consolidating their missing fundamentals on every ride...
Thank you for watching and commenting!
Different detail, similar story - it all starts with the feet.
@@Roxybike_Ride.and.Inspire great point Roxys
@@baabbylon Thank you so much 🙂
I tried this yesterday on the trails and when I was able to maintain it, felt waaay more in control than I usually do on banks, drops, and just riding overall. I love these tips
Awesome, thanks for being open to try and share!
Awesome as always, thanks miss Roxy for your time and dedication in bringing these videos out!
Thank you for this lovely comment, dear Peter!
I'm so glad I watched this video! The foot wedge is something I can start practicing right away. It's great to have a new thing to practice that doesn't increase the risk of falling, but actually helps to lessen that chance. Your videos are awesome!
Thank you so much. Oh yes, you will be amazed at how this element will change your riding on so many levels.
This is great, I just shared your video to our head coach of our high school mountain biking team, and this enforced my constant awareness and suggestions for not being clipped in, plus, when kids are just learning mountain biking, this point in my opinion is first, before any other skills.
Thanks for creating this video it is awesome
Thanks so much for sharing! Truly appreciate it - let’s get this out to the world 😍
This is the mountain biking video that I have been looking for. Very in-depth with scientific explanation..
Thank you, Roel, very happy to hear. Thank you for taking the time to share your appreciation. If you'd like to start my free trackstand course, do check out the pinned comment. Much love, Roxy
@@Roxybike_Ride.and.Inspire Honestly I tried this technique foot wedge in my local downhill trails after watching this video. I notice I have better control. The feeling of more bike control enables me to ride a little bit faster with confidence. Thanks again.
Excellent video Roxy! After watching it, I went for a ride to check out what I typically do. Turns out that is my natural position since it just feels “right”. You provided a great explanation of why it does. Keep it up!
Thanks a lot, Patrick. So great to hear you have such great body intelligence!
Very clever demonstration of the “ why” of being balanced over the bottom bracket and achieving traction in both tyres and has been the great revelation in my riding!
Thanks again Roxy!
Thank you so much, John! Happy to hear!
Thank you so much I can’t wait to practice on the trail love your videos 🤙🏾💯
Thank you, Akiva, enjoy practicing!
This is really great Roxy! Thanks so much for everything you share.
Thank you, Scott!
👏. Thanks Roxy! I’m an intermediate rider and using this foot/heel position instantly helped be brake less on the trail. I feel so much more in control of the bike. Old dogs can learn new tricks
Thank you so much for being open to try it and sharing your success with us all 😍🥰
Your passion for MTB shines through which makes your video very understandable - thank you
Awww, thank you so much!
Roxy great content, again! Seeing the scale numbers is etched in my mind in a good way.
Thanks, Robert!
Thanks so much again for sharing your knowledge. Always a pleasure to learn from you! And this is why I still love my flat pedals as they are a good teaching tool for telling me if I’m doing things right (or not)!
Agreed, they sure are! Thanks for your comment 😍
I had flat peddles sitting in my toolbox for 2 years, I retired and was like well now is as good a time as any and I threw them on the bike. Best decision I’ve ever made, FF three years and I ride bike park all over the country (USA) for some reason the clipless never taught me how to lower my heel/heels and did azz-over-teakettle all the time. Just found Roxy recently and will definitely try the “wedge”.
I tried this a few days ago. Wow! it really made a difference in stability and control. Thank you Roxy!
Way to go, Victoria and thank you so much for being open and sharing your progress!
Excellent explanation. You even addressed it from multiple angles. Superb 👌
Thank you so much, Emma!
Thank you for this MTB technique video and the understandable and comprehensible explanation of the riding technique.
Thank YOU, dear Uwe for your kind comment and for watching!
I think learning to load my front tire has to have been one of the bigger struggles with my mountain biking. Instinct has us wanting to push away from things that scare us, but it ends up being a self fulfilling prophecy when you lean back, heels dropped and there is not enough weight up front for the tire to get proper traction. Not to mention the potential issues of being so far back on a super steep decent, some technical features risk kicking that back tire into your butt if you do not have proper form.
Agreed! Thanks for sharing 🙏😊
I've had the pleasure of receiving Roxy's coaching feedback through RLC, but this is the first UA-cam video I have ever seen of her instruction. WOW, really impressed; especially with the topic. I don't see any other online tutorials going into this much depth about ankle position, but it now makes sense as to why it may be THE most important topic. Great job Roxy, and thanks for the valuable info; it really has me thinking about my trail riding technique. Keep up the great work.
Thank you very much, Mark! Happy to hear you are now aware of THE most important fundamental on the bike - because I agree, it is the foundation for almost everything and it is the most overlooked (by most instructors).
Keep up the great practice and thank you for your comment!
yet another fantastic explanation of essential skills, this is the best MTB skills channel on youtube. thank you!
Thank you so so so much 😍🥰
I love your videos, and your analysis of the physics is really helpful. I have been struggling to maintain weight on the front wheel, and I think the wedge idea captures what it feels like when things are going well on the trail for me! It really helps to be able to have a concept and visual image to focus on. I also love the video where you talk about what level of difficulty you should be riding to make progress. I live in North Vancouver, and there are lots of very challenging trails here, but fewer moderate ones to work on skill development, and your advice to let confidence level (not ego) dictate what trails to ride is so important here. Keep up the amazing work.
Thank you so so much, Brett. Happy to help! What an amazing place to ride! Visited pre-Covid and loved it!
Awesome stuff. Great to see an educated instructor talk through these techniques.
Thank you EVER SO MUCH, Alan!
I’m also an engineer and love your approach to instruction with the why. Been biking for many years but really got into trails riding in the past two years. Excited to keep learning more and get better.
Thank you so much. I also have a very analytical mind and it’s such a pleasure to feed it 😅
That was a fabulous instruction video that explained your reasoning perfectly, thank you for posting it, I'm now subscribed and I'll be checking out your other videos.👍
Thanks a lot, Andrew!
This is fantastic. I'd seen other videos about "dropping your heels" and always thought it felt strange dropping my rear (left) heel/pedal. The front (right) one felt good and natural so I couldn't figure out why I didn't like dropping the rear one. "The Wedge" is the explanation!!! Thanks so much for the comprehensive walkthrough of this as its really helped me understand what's going on. I thought it was my lack of ability so much happier now!!!
Thanks a lot Wayne. So happy to hear 😍😇
Interesting and helpful, great explanations! It's cool when someone shares real knowledge with us all.
Thanks so much, Ian 😍☺️
I love biking MTB and road and always strive to have better and safer experience.
Thank you so much for such a great video on the technique.
I will watch all your videos and apply in local mountains.
Thank you. Enjoy practicing 😊😊
Thanks for the tip. I tried it out today and felt much more in control in my turns and drops. I think it will take a few more times to get the muscle memory to go right to that stance.
Awesome, Roger!
Beautifully, clearly explained - and a top-class video editing to show all the important stuff.
Thank you. :)
I don't use clipless pedals, so I hope that I'm already doing it right "intuitively," but I'll pay close attention next time I wander off-road and check my foot and heel position(s). :)
Thank you so much. Do let me know once you’ve tried it!
Awesome lesson! I've watched so many mtb tutorials and none have explained the "wedge" as you have. I've only heard the "drop the heels so your feet don't fly off" repeated on all the other videos. I can't wait to try out the wedge on my next ride!
Awesome, Kevin! Looking forward to hearing how it feels. Feel free to share it with all of us once you've tried!
Great explanations. I find it helps me master skills when I understand the physics behind them. Looking forward to more videos. Subscribed.
Thanks! Welcome to my Channel!
Thank you for the Riding tips highly appreciated
Thank you for watching!
Great video. Glad I found your page!
Thanks a lot. Glad you’re here!
Great stuff as always Roxy!
Thanks, Tony!
really useful info! i did this sometimes but did not realise the biomechanics implications. your video help clarify and be more aware of what i am actually doing with my feet. The scale demo of fron wheel weight was WOW. did not realise how much of my weight would go back if i drop heeels. THANK YOU! great video!
So so happy to hear, Sebastian. Have fun applying this knowledge and putting it into practice. If you’d like to start with my free Trackstand course with easy to follow home training drills, check out the link on my channel or get in touch via mail.
Thank you for your comment 🙏
Roxy
It does make sense. Thanks for the video.👍
Thank you! ☺️
I daresay this is the best mtb coaching channel on UA-cam. I'm totally stoked about your content!
Thank you so so so much 💗😇🥰😍
Love these latest videos! Great info, I know some old guys that think they know what they are talking about that could use some of this actual coaching advice. There is way too much bad info being passed around on the trails and this is refreshing.
Thanks, RJ! Share it and we’ll start a revolution together ☺️🤗
That's a fantastic video Roxy!
Thank you!
Instant subscribe, I love the way you explain scientifically and practically. I'm gonna try this today at the trail!
So happy to hear, Mario!

Roxy
Thank you for this! I have mountain biked for YEARs and have been doing it wrong, and had front wheel washouts and instability at times. this will be a great help! I am a full cert ski instructor and a trainer, and work on COM and basic stance all the time, but never translated it properly onto my bike. And I coach all the time that it all starts in the feet for skiing. and yes, I have been on clipless pedals from way back in the day.
Hi Steve. Then change to flats for a few months a year and I can promise you - it’ll take your riding to the next level!! (Well, FIRST you’ll regress - but often we need to regress to progress, like an arrow that needs to be pulled backward first, before we can shoot it).
Thanks for your comment ☺️😍
Hi Roxy, I have a pair, from when I was working on handling skills a few years ago, but they seemed to bother my knees a little as I was quite well planted on the pedals, and did not get any play in the pedal for my heels to move about when pedaling, as I do on my clip less. Any suggestions or thoughts about that?
Excellent video!!! No one has ever explained it so well.
Thank you ☺️
Wow! That makes sooo much sense! So greatful 👏😁
Thank you. So grateful for your comment ☺️😍🤗
Brilliant video, thank you very much.
Thank you!
Beautiful insights explained awesome! Thank you
Thank you ever so much for sharing your appreciation and time with me in this comment!
You make a great point here. So many of my (more experienced MTB pals) have told me to drop both heels when descending & it doesn't inspire confidence at speed
Thanks. Happy to hear it makes sense 😊
Thanks for the video!

Awesome thanks so much I will be trying this on the weekend:)
enjoy! Try it on easy trails without distractions first :-)
@@Roxybike_Ride.and.Inspire yes I will that’s a great idea :)
Super helpful thank you Roxy!
Thank you, Patricia!
I LOVE your videos! You are an inspiration to me and my little youtube channel. Even though I'm an experienced rider, I've always prioritized speed and power, and sometimes I forgot to work my technic. That's why I have some technical flaws.
I hope one day I can see you cycling here in Portugal. Thanks ❤️
Thanks a lot. Where in Portugal are you?
@@Roxybike_Ride.and.Inspire I live in Fátima (the holy city where is the Shrine of Our Lady of Fátima). Fátima is in central Portugal, in the region of Serra de Aire, and has lots of beautiful, technical and rocky trails. You can watch some of it in my videos.
@@MTB-Portugal awesome, thanks!
This is fantastic. Thank u for sharing
Thank you!
Outstanding analysis -- I think I do this somewhat naturally, but could certainly improve a lot. I'm an old rider trying to learn new "tricks" (and trying to break bad habits). Thank you!
Awesome, Glenn! Often we do things naturally, as our body is SO intelligent, but sometimes we try to override its intelligence with our ego 😄 So: awesome if you have been doing it naturally. And I’m pretty sure that it’ll improve your riding immensely once you’ve understood and played with this skill more.
I’ve always ridden flats and in my never ending pursuit to improve, I have seen “heels down” over and over but just can’t do it when I ride. (Definitely not a flexibility issue).
Thank you for helping me understand why I’m not wrong and don’t have to make it feel wrong to do it right.
Hi Jonny. Thank you so much for this comment 😍 I always say: if it feels wrong, question it. If it’s just new and generally „makes sense“ (not just because someone says it, but because it makes sense even if questioned) then get used to it slowly. But if your body is saying „no“ it usually has its reasons 😃
So happy to hear you now know why it feels wrong and how it may feel better 🙃
Thankyou very mucho for sharing this valuable knowledge 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
Thank you for appreciating it!
Awesome! Great information thank you
Thank you, Dan. Looking forward to hearing how it works once you’ve tried! Do let me know.
Great video! I really enjoy your instruction videos. I have learned so much. Thank you for your generosity in sharing your knowledge.😊
So so happy to hear, Martha, thank you so much!
Cool video. I'm a newbie and love the Foot Wedge. Just learned a sick tool. The essence of MT biking.
😍😍😍💪💪💪💪 thanks Justin! It’ll spare you many crashes!
Thank you for this video! I discovered you via your shorts and I'm very happy to have found someone like you that give suggestions based on science, a lot of practice on the field and that is expert in teaching!
I just love your explanation and I'll start since my next mtb ride to apply the FOOT WEDGE (and thinking about the body position and traction!).
Thanks again and I'll try asap to see and take notes on your other mtb videos!
Thank you so so much for your comment, so so happy to help. If you'd like to work with my structured drills, do check out my online courses on www.roxybike-coaching.com
Have fun trying out the foot wedge, it's a game changer 🙂
~ Roxy
@@Roxybike_Ride.and.Inspire I've checked your online courses and I've found them very appealing, expecially the fundamentals (almost the cost of a cup of coffee for each lesson!).
I've seen a few other UA-cam videos of yours and the most important thing useful for a lot of beginners are your drills and exsercises useful to build up the tecnique avoiding accidents.
Brian Lopes, Jeff Lenowski, and other fantastic riders can reveal their secrets, tecniques and give suggestion, but your work based on mini-exsercises BEFORE the actual skill to be learnt/mastered is something that makes the difference and put everyone in the condition to ride with confidence and safety.
The other fundamental ingredient is the time and dedication: for this reason I'll look at your online courses in the next spring (if not summer :( ), but I'll follow you on YT and keep you in mind for a suggestion for friends or "collegues".
~ Ciro
@@cirosmserpico3832 Hi Ciro, thank you for your comment. The good news is:
1. You have lifelong access to my course, so you can actuall sign up now and start whenever
2. actually winter is the best time to practice skills 🙂 Because our brain needs to be in a "learning zone" and not a "performance zone" - more about this here: ua-cam.com/video/u54_U4GqNUs/v-deo.html
Thank you for keeping me and my videos as well as courses in mind! I appreciate it. Have a lovely day!
This wedge technique helped a ton downhilling today and setting up for jumps. Thanks for the video.
Whoop!
wow sooo much detail. feel like i should write an exam now. this some good advice i love it.
Wow this video is revolutionary!, I'm on Mtb since two year, i've also done some mtb school, but this technique , nobody tells me about, as soon i practice it i've noticed a way better control of the bike, it is amazing...thanks a lot greetings from Italian Trails!!
Thanks Gus - come take a private coaching with me and you'll find out many things no one tells you ;-)
Happy you felt a difference straight away!
Very good!
Greetings from Mallorca!
Excellent video! Thanks 😀
Thank you!
great learning video!!!!
Thanks Serj 🙏
I recently found your channel. You explain things so well!
Thank you ever so much, Trish! 🤗 If you'd like to work with me to turn the knowledge of these videos into motor skills, you'll find me on www.roxybike-coaching.com
Enjoy my videos!
Great explanation, after seeing the reduction on weight on the front wheel with both heels dropped, I wondered how this would affect setting suspension sag. I tested measuring sag with both heels dropped and the wedge method. As expected with dropped heels you end up with less pressure in the fork and also more pressure in the shock to achieve the recommended sag, compared with setting up using the wedge or keeping pedals level. This resulted in a fork less supportive and a harsh rear end = unbalanced suspension and affected geometry (steepened).
I haven't seen any "how to's" that say drop heels when setting sag, but equally I haven't seen any that say avoid it, maybe they should?
Love your videos 👍
Thanks a lot Nigel, great Idea. Totally agree, I think that A LOT when I see people setting their suspension being TOTALLY off balance... But that's a longer topic, because there are so many myths about suspension setting etc. Hm, maybe I will make a video about it in future :-)
Thanks for this useful video 😍
Thank you for your lovely comment!
Thank you for this video.
Thank you for commenting and watching (and hopefully sharing) 😊😊☺️
Roxy, you totaly rule. This video just nailed it. Excellent. Respect. 💯👊✌️
Thanks so much! Happy to help!
Very well explained, i have done this foot position subconsciously but this video was the first time I've seen an explanation.
Thanks!
Very informative! Thank you!!!
Thanks!
great tips
Great explanation! Sharing your channel with friends. Cheers
Thank you 🙏 sharing is caring 😍💕
Amazing video!!!
Thanks SO much 😍🥰
I just subscribed, very nice explination.. hope to see more videos like this. Thank you
Thanks a lot! Welcome to my channel.
Thank you Roxy. I too teach riding and focus on the philosophy behind the riding and the physics and psychology behind what we do. I love to share knowledge and as i say, your smile is my reward. Love your videos, Its the first time i hear your voice :)
I grew up in the 80s, officially started riding in 1993. We didn't have youtube vids to teach us, i only had a hardtail with a 60mm fork that kicked me like a wild stallion when i didn't do the right thing.
I learned technique the hard way, i didn't have a whole week where i wasn't injured. LMAO...
Keep up the awesome work you do...
Thanks, Gabriel!
This is so interesting, i have had coaching in the past who stated that heals down is fundamentals. I never got on with it as it always hurt and felt unnatural and from my BMX days we never did this as rode well. So thank you for this video and dispelling that MTB myth. I look forward to viewing the rest of your videos.
Thank you Garry 😍
Do share it with others to make riding feel more natural again 😍
Great video 🤘
Thanks!
Thank you for this... Subbed!!
Thank you!!
Great info! So critical 👍🏻
Glad it was helpful! Thank you for taking the time to comment 🙏🙏
I have not questioned "drop the heels" technique at all after learning it ! Thx for this video 👍
You’re very welcome. Always question things you learn - it’ll ensure you to find the right solutions for YOU 🤗🤗
Well, I know I have tight calves. So I just ordered an adjustable calve stretcher to aid in more options of dropping my heels. Really like your explain why it is so. I have heard many say drop both heels and no pros and cons for such action. Thank you.
Thanks Robert. Totally agreed, flexibility is a huge part of success on your mountain bike. Which is why I have a course especially designed to improve flexibility for mountain bikers: roxybikeonline.podia.com/gravity-yoga-targeted-flexibility-training-for-mountain-bikers
So happy to hear you are finding my content helpful! Thank you!
Really Awesome ! 🙏🏻🌟
Thanks so much!
This video was incredibly helpful for me. I really like the way to broke everything down into 4 components. (Constructive criticism- I almost passed over this video due to its length.) I’m glad I stuck with it and I’m a subscriber- attention span of a goldfish… Thank you
Thanks Dermot! Happy you stuck with it!
Great information roxy :)

Thank you, that was interesting. I'm happy that the algorithm suggested me that video (I've subscribed so I will not miss anything now ;-)
Thanks. I’m happy to have you here! Thanks for commenting!
Brilliant, thank you
Thank you 🙏
A friend of mine (thanks Aisling) suggested this concept to me and its a game changer. I have a serious problem of going back on the bike when cornering. I literally tried this for one short day in the bike park and it was amazing the difference. I haven't tried it on steeps yet but hopefully I can do that too. Thanks :)
So so happy to hear, Tara!

Just watched the entire video.🤯 New sub
Thanks!
This is great. Ive always struggled to keep both heels down and it doesnt really help me. This is good info !
Thanks Tom!
I LOVE that you talked about and include biomechanics and physics! So many riders and instructors fail to understand and Translate these two aspects which absolutely dictate bike riding. The bicycle is a rolling Physics laboratory. Everything we do and everything we engage in is subject to physics and biomechanics. 👍✔

Agreeeeeee!!! I talk about this topic with the instructors I train and certify so many times 🙏🙌🙌
Makes so much sense👍
