How he turned a fallen tree into a MTB jump!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 25 сер 2024
- I turned a dead tree into this epic mountain bike jump with my chainsaw and it has a secret built-in that makes this jump perfect for beginners or advanced riders.
Using my Granberg Alaskan Mill I sliced up a fallen tree, then cut the lumber to the correct size and began constructing this mega backyard kicker. It was so big that I had to add wheelbarrow wheels to it so I could roll it around the property.
It was a really fun mountain bike trail build and I learnt a lot in the process.

Building mountain bike trails is hard work, especially when you have to mill all the timber yourself. But the results can be very rewarding! It's a lot of fun to build and ride your own creations.

What do you think of the landing? I think I'm going to make it a couple of feet taller so that it's more of a step up. Maybe even throw some mulch on it. That should help build some more confidence to start going bigger.
I think that it being more of a step up would help a lot
@@Bruppeditz yeah I think so too. This is definitely not the jump I set out to build lol. But I'm not complaining. I wanted something that would help me get over my fear of going higher. And this one shoots you up.
@@cutlaps I’ve never hit a jump that big and I have always thought step ups are less scary because you don’t have to fall as much. I think they are some of the best confidence building jumps
@@Bruppeditz yeah I'm only going small on it but already the hang time is like nothing I have felt on a bike. Very weird but fun feeling.
The landing is good as is! The crisp top of the landing looks so good, but rounded might make it safer to come up short with the nose. (I might be traumatized from broken an OTB broken nose experience from being just short fully commuted.)
I agree that step ups are easier and technically you can send them deep and land where a long flat table would be.
When you get the extra dirt you could slightly lower beyond the landing in all directions making the landing slightly longer in the process (in a way that drains).
Underrated UA-cam channel
True
Cheers dude!
I know
hes good at makeing videos un like you just because you cant make a video like him dont mean you need to hait on him but dude i love your videos and i like watching them and you help me to make my own jumps
@@arikipharazyn7273 it’s a compliment to him, I pretty much said that his channel is great and very under appreciated, I don’t understand why you’re so upset.
This channel is the highlight of my day after a long day of work and I am always pumped to see what he builds next! You're the best and keep on building man! ✌
Thanks legend! Really happy with this build. Now I need to work out whats next on the list to build. I definitely want to get back to the Snake Run trail.
I am 12 years old and I really appreciate you I was so interested in this build I have been watching your videos for 3 months now and I built the kicker ramp out of pallets it’s been helping me so much
Oh thats awesome! Really cool that you built the pallet kicker.
You doing this is making me want to build my own
You should! So much fun
One of the best trailbuilding channels on UA-cam! Great job. Thank you so much for the pleasure of watching!
Thanks mate! Have you seen the latest build from @BackyardTrailBuilds ? He makes some insanly awesome features. Not that I could ride them but wow they are inspiring.
@@cutlaps Yes, I watch all the episodes on his channel. Very cool! Both he and you are in my top of the best channels about trailbuilding)
@@user-jn1ck3ny2g thanks mate!
Probably my new favourite MTB channel now. So good to see a fellow Aussie making good mtb content.
That is awesome! Thanks for watching.
That was awesome, great build and video!! I've built a couple lips like that with my Alaskan Mill and chainsaw, it's probably my favorite way to build just cause it's a cool process. If I get down to Australia we've gotta link up!!!
Yes! I wanna see the Porters ride the all Luke’s builds! Maybe bike pack the Outback. You can ride to and sleep at the cabin where Man from Snowy River was filmed 😉 also 2 days ago BCpov posted a video of a rad new $4.3M bike park 1 hour north of Cutlaps place.
Thank you! You're right, it's a great way to build and feels really rewarding using wood found on location. You should book a trip down under ASAP
Looking amazing can’t wait for more content
I am editing the new video at the moment. Can't wait to share it with you.
YES I can’t wait to watch it
This is really cool
Especially the wildlife shots
Thanks mate! Yeah it was cool to see a bit more wildlife hanging around while filming this video.
It’s really inspirational watch how you build the ramps! I’m beginning in building process and you always help me to know how to do it. Thanks for your content! Greetings from Costa Rica!
Glad I could help out! Good luck with your builds. Send me some pics on instagram!
sick as video mate, great to see you back, cant wait to see what you build next. ✌
THanks mate. Yeah I need to work out whats next on the list to build. I want to get back to the Snake Run trail.
Yeah mate! What a build. I'm trying to progress my way through to a huge kicker just like that one! Your insane mate!
Its such a weird feeling hitting a jump this size and steep. I'm not used to the hang time. But its so much fun. How is your pregession going?
Yeah pretty good, thanks for asking. Maybe one day I can build jumps like that!@@cutlaps
Sickkkk... I'm building a backyard trail in my dad's rural property and your videos are inspiring me a lot.
Oh dude thats awesome! Thats how my cutlaps started!
So sick man!!! This video has been long awaited after you kept giving us sneak peek. You truly do have some of the best build videos on UA-cam so props to you also awesome job sending it 🤟
Thank you legend! Lots of effort in each build video so its really cool to hear how much you enjoy them.
I've been watchimg this channel grow for years now and I just wanted to take a moment to ssay 2 things. The first is that the quality of your videos has improved so much with the new music and for example the design of the kicker. You didn't need to do it but you did and that really shows how much you value the quality of these videos. Secondly, you've inspired me to build my own bike trails and I just recently bought some land in Kangaroo Valley, just west of Woollongong to build my trails on.
Thank you so much for choosing to do this, you make my day so much better whenever I watch your videos.
Thank you! I thought paying for some big songs would up the quality so it's really cool to read this. Glad people are noticing and enjoying it. And wow you bought land in Kangaroo Valley!!! That is awesome. Such a great area for trails. I'm excited for you.
That is such a clean build Luke 🤙 I would love a sweet jump like that in my yard
Yeah dude! Stoked with it. Way bigger than the original idea in my mind.
Awesome build and great to see your riding progression 🤙
Thanks mate!
I was at my local trails today and just couldn’t make myself launch, kept absorbing the jump with my legs. This is a nice bit of inspiration mate cheers from Scotland 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Oh mate I know the exact feeling. I still do it all the time!
Ur one of the better riders I’ve ever seen keep sending
Surely not! But I do have a good time on my bike. Thaks for watching
The nature shots are just 👌
Oh yea the send
I'm with you Luke, facing up to that first time through would knot you up big time. Nicely done! A build, wildlife and serious progression in one vid! Keep it coming.
Cheers dude. You will have to come ride it soon. I'm sure you will clear it no worries.
Great build for progressing! The step up/mulch combo sound like a great idea for going big!
Yeah I think a mulch landing would be pretty sweet. I could probably hire a mulcher for a day.
That's an awesome kicker. Watching your videos is a good escape from all the crashing that I'm doing and it's good to know that your videos are there when I get home. you should be super stocked about all the progress you've made, Thanks legend.
I hope your crashes aren't too bad! Sounds painful. Thanks for watching
I waited 3 months for this video and you did not disappoint!
Love that you show how you work it all out on a pc program and then make it in real life!
Love your work mate, really enjoying your vids
Sorry for making you wait 3 months. But glad it was worth it for you.
@cutlaps i would like to point out that my emphasis was on how good of a video you made, the 3 month wait is just part and parcel of the quality of the production!
Hey Cutlaps.i just wanted to tell you that my MTB journey was inspired by you. I’ve started to build my own MTB track. I hope you have an incredible time until the next video!
Oh thats awesome. Tell me about your track. What have you built so far? I think I'm going to have a few weeks off over Christmas and then get back into the builds.
hey it was great 'meeting" you mark Mathews live trail build today
Yeah it was good to chat while watching him work. I love Marks stuff. ANd he is so motivated. Really inspiring stuff.
Another excellent project! And I also liked it when you said "Smells like rain"! I've had people tell me that I'm crazy when I say that. I knew I couldn't be the only one that could smell rain...
Being able to smell rain is definitely a thing! Those other people are crazy for not being able to do it lol.
Love these videos mate
It’s making me want to go down under even more now
Love from the uk 🇬🇧
You would love it. There has been some awesome new trails being built all over Australia, not to mention Hardline early next year!
LOVE the little nature edit at 1:08
You really inspired me to start mountain biking. Great jump man!
Thats awesome! Its a lot of fun.
Oh my word this is incredible the best back garden jump I’ve ever seen. Keep shredding ❤🔥🤟💯 9:47
Thanks mate! Yeah this turned out really nice. Way bigger than I was expecting haha
sick as seeing some big progression since i first started watching
Thanks Rory. I have been riding a lot more in the last month or two and can feel myself improving on the trails.
mate i love the vids having you building these kickers has inspired me to build my own and the new tees look sick
Oh nice. You will have to send me some pics of your build on instagram.
Bloody wicked video mate! 🤙 the kicker looks sick, just can't beat the raw natural colour of eucalyptus wood. Been looking forward to the reveal from all the sneak peaks and its amazing. Good job🎉🤟
Sick one! Stoked you like it. It turned out awesome hey! Love the raw wood
loving this series never thought i could be done is aussie bush 🇦🇺🤩 keep it up mate the channel will grow heaps!
I'm pretty lucky with the property I build on. Lots of elevation to work with and interesting valleys to build in. I'll be back on the regular trail in the next video.
loved the yay sound effect really stepped up the videos quality #bigfan #iluvmtb #plsincoporatetheyaysoundeffectineveryvideo
Haha I'm not sure if this is sarcasm
Your such a big inspiration to me, I love, watching your videos and you inspired me to make my own jumps
Thats sick dude, send me some pics of your jumps on instagram. Would love to see them.
Sure thing
Another rad build Luke! Love the chicken bridge 😁
The chicken bridge has become my signature 🤣
You seems to put together ramps easier than I can put Ikea furniture together.
Great video as always mate.
Hahah thats just how it looks in the final video...
dream life you inspired me to start building my trails again
Awesome! Stoked to inspire you to get back to your trails.
I always just wanna get out there and ride whenever I see one of these come up, super inspiring to build and ride. Keep these coming Luke!
Yeiwwwww, I need to design some shirts that say Go Dig, Go Ride. Thanks for watching
Rad dude! Super cool kicker, it’s really awesome to see the process of making it. Way to send it too!
Thanks legend! Yeah pretty stoked with this booter. Lots of potential to go big as I progress.
Looks great! Good to see another episode out, keep them coming!
Thanks Ryan
It’s nice to watch an Aussie mountain biker for once great content and a top bloke cheers mate
Cheers legend! Stoked you like it.
your the best youtuber ever you build so much cool things i love you!
Thats so cool! Thank you
Fully sick love your vidios my 11 year old son absolutely loves your tracks
Dude thats awesome. Thanks legend. Hope he it inspires hime to get out and ride.
Most under rated MTB channel sick vibes dude the chicken bridge is a great addition to the jump
Thanks mate. Yeah the chicken bridge works well on this. Makes it a bit more friendly.
Man I love how much better his editing skills have gotten, and his rideing skills, love the world life to also all the music is great with the montages. Keep it up.❤
Thanks mate! Pretty cool to see the channel evolve from the very beginning. I have been learning a lot about building, editing, story telling and riding.
Keep the awesome builds coming! Some day I will find time to build trails in my woods!
It takes a lot of time and effort but building your own trail is pretty rewarding and a lot of fun.
Really enjoyed the edit mate. Vibes are immaculate!🤘Must build ramp...
Whens Mahalo crew coming down under? I'll build you something nice.
Not soon enough honestly. Been saying “next year” for 7 years!!
Haha I know the feeling! Better book it in asap
You have inspired me and my dad to build a fun jump from your wooden pallets video. I can now ride it quite confidently from the many times I have stacked it. 🤣
Dude that sounds like some decent progression. Stacking is a big part of mountain biking. Sounds like you are pushing hard!
@@cutlaps Yeah, I am trying to get better. I started riding this year so I feel like I have had quite a lot of progression.
Awesome, good work! Just keep riding and having fun and you will be progressing.@@JamesG-ky1mn
I'm from Brazil and I really like your videos, congratulations.
Thanks mate. Glad you like my videos. Really cool to have fans all the way from Brazil!
Yo, this is actually sick! These videos are actually really helpful as well, my dad and I have been building some jumps in the backyard recently, and there's so much information on here about lip angles and geometry
Dude thats awesome you have been building your own jumps with your dad. So much fun having your own jumps.
@@cutlaps It is, I can ride them with my friends as well. We've got plans to build a curved kicker, but we're not sure about the takeoff angle. What would you recommend? (It's going to be around 70 cm high for reference).
@@Cranberry415 Take a look at this website. It wll really help you work out the size and shape of the kicker. You will need to convert cm to feet. kohlibuilt.com/ANGLESweb.htm
A radius around 10ft will give you approximately 40 degree andgle at take off for your height.
@@cutlaps Alright, thanks, I'll have have a look
This Is A SICK Jump Mate!! This Is Awesome Video I Want to Build My own On Our Property!
Hell yeah! Thanks mate. You should build your own for sure!
I stayed up until midnight watching the entire series. Awesome content!
Haha that is awesome. Hope you didnt have to wake up early the next day. What was your favourite build?
Sick video mate! I started my mountain biking around two years ago and have watched your build for a while. You have inspired me to build some little jumps in my yard. Thanks
Dude thats awesome! Backyard jumps are the best. I started riding just before covid, so not too long.
Wow, suuch a cool project! I love the look, too
Thanks for watching!
Hey, great video!
I love what you have done with the begining of the video. The disassembly of the thumbnail into the video looked incredible and i had never seen anything like this concept.
Cool! Yeah I hadn't seen anything like that before either. Thought I would give it a try and see how it looked. Stoked you enjoyed it.
awesome video, loved seeing the whole process! keep up the great work!
Thanks mate! Glad you enjoyed it.
Sick video man I’m thinking of building a jump very similar at my house thanks for the inspiration. Great video 🤙
Sounds sweet dude.Hope this helps with your design.
Great idea! I'm making one for me. At 56 I still like to send it. Love the wheel idea!!
Yes dude that is awesome!!! Go big! I hope I'm still sending it at 56
Awesome ramp, this really makes me want to built a kicker for me and my kids.
You should! It's a lot of fun to build and ride.
Bro, you need to make more videos! I hope they are monetised, because the amount of effort and the quality of them is amazing. I and lots more people need more of these videos!
Thanks Tom, yeah they are monetised. I try to make as many as possible but the builds have got so big and the edits so detailed that it takes a few months to make each video haha.
I have just stumbled up on your channel and I don’t think I’ll ever leave your channel. It is really good.
Glad you found it! Thanks for watching
I love the way you bulid your jumps you have inspired me to have a go at Mtb and do bigger jumps thank you
Thats really cool to hear. Jumping scares me but I'm slowly getting better a t it. You will have a lot of fun riding a MTB. Cheers
WOO HOO! Good to see you back again! Awesome content dude 🤘 The Canadian winters have halted my trail building, however next year I hope for there to be a kicker in the trails. Troubles of a 13 year old 😅
Oooft I am lucky that I can build all year round. I guess you trail is under snow? Time to get on the snowboard.
Absolutely mad. I love your work - it's making me so keen to get out there and tidy up some local trails 👍
Now that is what I like to hear! I need to get down to my local trails and lend a hand as well. We have had a lot of rain here lately so lots of them have been closed.
Keep it up I have been watching your videos keep riding❤
Thanks dude. Been having a good time on my bike this year!
Congratulations on the build and the send! Keep up the great content ✌🏻
Thanks mate!
Best jump ever
Cheers dude
I love your content I’m getting my first mtb soon and your dog is soooooo cute🥹
Oh thats so cool you are getting your first MTB soon! You are gonna love it!
Thanks @cutlaps , your videos are great
No worries Nick! Glad you enjoy them
Best christmas gift! Another upload of @cutlaps!!
Hahah just call me Santa
Always stoked when I see a Cutlaps notification video on my feed! Dude that looks sick, such a great idea with the chicken flap. Big solid jump that’ll last. The wheels were a sick idea….to keep progressing 👌🏼
Yeah this build is super solid! And it will be great for progression, if there was a bigger landing someone with more skills on a bike could go absolutely massive on this thing. Thanks for watching legend
Mate your crazy but I love it you have so much talent and I love watching your videos and learning to improve my riding and building I think you should build a c cork knuckle and a set of tables to a gap keep on going
I have missed your trail builds. Good to see you back doing what you do best.
Haha I never left! It just takes that long for me to build, film and edit a video while I work my regular job. But stoked you liked the video.
Awesome build! This makes me want to throw together some wood kickers and dirt landings around my farm!
Oh if you have a farm you should definitely build somes jumps! So much fun
Bro I love this channel!!! I recently went back and watched and watched the DIY kicker video and then whent and built one the same. Love it!
Oh sick! How did it turn out? It's a fun little kicker
Rainy day and this drops! So sick mate love your builds
Thanks mate! Pretty happy with how solid this kicker turned out.
its crazy how jumps are so easy to build, but are so beautifully
Yeah I'm pretty happy with how this one looks, but it's actually so smooth riding up it as well.
Everytime I see that u have uploaded I get stoked man. Your content is amazing
Sharing the stoke!!
Awesome inspiration dude, time to take the chainsaw to the timber in my sideyard as I make a skills trail there.
Hell yeah! I want to make some skinnies to practice on as well. I may need to get the chainsaw out again.
You are so skilled!! The jump looks amazing well done 🤙
Thank you! I haven't had much time to hit it over the holiday season. Need to get back out there and work on my jumps.
i just dont know how this guy isnt popular like bearm peak and that kind off chanels this guy has premium quality and best stuff to watch
Haha thanks mate. Stoked you enjoy it and find it as entertaining as Berm Peak
@@cutlaps no i find your channel more entertaning
Now that’s a kicker! Nice work on clearing it. But more so nice work on building it, with the built-in chicken bridge! Awesome work!
Cheers mate! Yeah I need to get back out there and hit it again and make sure I lock in clearing it.
Great vid mate, nice work on the ramp and pushing the envelope.
Slowly progressing! I want to be able to really send this kicker.
What A build man, been watching for so long and hope your uploading more as it's summer in Australia (I'm from Ireland)
Hows the riding in Ireland? I'll try to upload more over summer. I have a friend coming to help speed up the process but some of these builds take so long. For example milling the log only took about 1 minute of video but really I was out there for 4 days doing it. I had a few issues that ended up being a bit boring to include in the video.
Free wood babeeeeeee, great use of materials:) nice work from Tassie
Cheers Tom! Yeah they are monetised but they take a long time to create. Usually a couple of months. Stoked you enjoy watching them.
You are by far my favorite trail building channel! Keep making killer content!
Cheers dude! That means a lot because there are some great trail building channels.
Wow! Another absolut unit of a jump! It looks incredibly well built and must be riding like a dream! Well done Luke!
Thanks mate! The curve is actually really smooth. I haven't had enough time to ride it properly again since filming. I'll get back out now that I am on holidays.
Wow, that's a beautiful jump!
Cheers mate
Love your videos man, it’s winter here in Indiana, USA but you have me stoked to get back on my bike come spring!
Awesome mate! I'm lucky and can ride all year round here. How long until you can get out on your bike?
April should be warm again….hopefully 😅
Hey mate. I only found this channel a few days ago but ive already watched many of your videos and im loving them. Keep up tbe crazy builds!
That is so cool to hear. Welcome to my channel and stoked you are enjoying the videos.
@@cutlaps I've just finished watching the rest of your videos. They are just such a fun watch! Keep the hard work up!!
I love the landing
A nice big dirt pile. Lucky I had the tractor
Bud ur just getting better by the minute. I've been with u the whole journey and watched u progress with ur building of mtb features and ur confidence with ur own riding. That kicker gave me goosebumps and I'd kill to ride the master piece. Great video mate and LETS WIN ONE OF THOSE SICK SHIRTS!! 🤙👏🥳
Yeiwwww great that you can see the progress! It's slow going but worth it! And thank you for being here from the beginning of my journey!
Hey, I think making the landing a couple feet taller is a great idea, I'd love to hit that jump ! Can't wait to watch your next video, usually takes a longer time that I like to come out but always great quality !
Yeah I think a taller landing would be good. Just need a lot more dirt lol. I have a friend coming to help me build in the middle of January. So hopefully that makes the next video a little quicker.
Good genuine content love it, more videos is a must have
I'll keep making them if you keep watching them.
Keep i up mate. Love watching this channel together with my son! Cheers from Sweden
Very cool! Awesome to have fans on the other side of the world in Sweden! Say g'day to your son for me.
Nice work with the raw wood, I love the jump. William, age 6, jumps too, and will ask his uncle Giampi to make him a jump like yours!
Haha awesome!!! Well I have a new video filmed where I build a mini kicker that could be perfect.
