What you need is a crap load of peer pressure and much bigger balls! I have only been doing mountain biking for 4 months and just a few weeks back I sent it off a 4 meter high double black diamond wooden skinny drop on my hard-tail. It is kinda crazy but with strong determination, a bit of peer pressure, lots of confidence in yourself, and a super heavy sack, you will be amazed at what you can do on your bike!
The mind is a very powerful thing, and if you let it run loose and get power over you that's when shit can get weird. Mad props for overcoming the fear my dude
I love how you do most of these drops by yourself. I learnt to do this but after a massive 200ft drop innto a mine shafts i have to think twice about being balls deep in the bush
I love drops. I can't seem to brave a gap jump yet, but drops up to about 4ft high don't seem to bother me. One of my favorite trails has a northshore style skinny with a 3ft drop at the end, and it's REALLY fun, but I have to hit the brakes hard as soon as I'm on the ground because it's quickly followed by a long gap jump! Great vid!
I'm pretty sure BTB had this style of video before Seth got his new place and started building trails. Great that you're getting the recognition but sucks that you're being overshadowed. Do you, my good man!
Ohhhhh I understand the feeling really well! I did a drop sessions a few weeks ago and breaking the mental barrier to jump was the toughest part. Great video, I get very excited when I see the notification popping up.
I would highly recommend a progressive drop, one that you can adjust the height on, I made mine by stacking pallets, but I went from about 1' to 6' in height over the course of 2 months
Awesome build man!!!! Love how your honest about being fearful about hitting features and love the overcoming of that fear. Best feeling in the world when it all comes together. Keep the vids coming man!!!!
Dang, that is a SICK drop. I need to build a big one like that. great job overcoming the anxiety to hit it... Looks big on camera and I'm sure it feels much bigger in person. That is the best feeling when you overcome something like that!
Hey man! Love your vids. Could u give me some advise on how to start riding without being near any hills/mountains. Also how do I start building nice flow track and other cool stuff! Thankyou
Thats actually why I started building features. We really dont have anything to ride where I live beside XC trail (incredible xc trail) so I started building things to progress my skills! Id say get yourself a couple small ramps and head to a park! Youd be amazed with how much you can progress with 2 small jumps.
Sick build, and good in ya for hitting the drop! I'd like to build some more wooden stuff especially drops as I don't have too many to practice on at home but woods expensive! lol maybe if I get a job my parent won't have any more excuses ;)
Good job on connecting your x-bracing at the center point. Structurally without that the bracing doesn't act in the frame action you are going for. Also way to hot the drop man.
Literally having the same problem with this jump at my local park I know I can do it because I’ve done stuff like this before and now this video has shown me I can So thanks (also love the content)
I reckon leave the bridge so you have a case pad if you mess up the jump, if you case the step up then that’s a season ending injury. That’s my two cents
Bike Life with Rob Agreed! I was doing this 4 ft thing, and one go my feet slipped half of the pedals and ever since I’ve been terrified of drops, even if they’re only like 1 or 2 feet
I’m assuming you used pressure treated pine for this. How much did the build for the deck cost? If it’s not too much trouble, could you please put up a parts list? Thanks! Great video.
I'm loving these videos man! I've done a bunch of this kind of thing in every house I lived in, after I moved from Vancouver, BC to Tennessee and now Orlando, FL. Hey, if you ever need a place to stay and visit Orlando, come on buy, one day Disney, one day build :). Also are you in St. Louis? I grew up in Manchester.
I watched a friend on my mountain bike team lose a couple teeth today, I’m glad I didn’t let it get to me, mental barriers are so difficult to deal with.
Do you have any public trails nearby? Closest for me is about an hour away and that’s why I built some stuff in my backyard. Keep up the great builds and I’m stoked seeing you progress both in building and riding.
My closest trail is about a half hour away, but they are all XC trail. I love it for when Im in the mood for a long ride but its tough to progress without any features. Thats why I started to build. I wanted to progress my riding much faster for when I went places. That way I could actually ride stuff instead of getting stuck riding more XC trail!
Haha this is awesome bro! Legit. I’ve been rolling it around in my mind to build some trails an features around our property as well. Haven’t taken the initial plunge tho! This motivates me so much! Thanks for taking the time an all the hard work that goes into it to share with the world. 💯🤜🏻🤛🏻 ps I just subscribed and will now been looking for your vids in my notifications.
Great video, just wondering why you are using a machete to cut small roots at 0:50 when some small gardening clippers would be way easier and don’t cut into the trail
Thanks Sean! Actually its a hatchet/machete type tool. Its reeeeally great at chopping down to the roots so the weeds wont grow back. You can see im actually chopping into the ground and not the stem of the weed. Good question though!
Mental blocks are the worst. Kudos on pushing through!
Then when you get over it and you are like "I was scared of that"
This isnt te
Every time I watch this I fill like. I’m watching some one wth over a million subs keep it up u inspire me good job
WELL DANG! Thanks a lot, Kai! I'm only 985 thousand away! Anyday now right?
Backyard Trail Builds ur right keep doing what u do
Me too!!!!
@@BackyardTrailBuilds pls do a colab with Seths bike hacks, it would be sick for both of u
Backyard Trail Builds plz do a colab with seth bike hacks
I thought I was watching Seth’s bike hacks for a second
Hugo Walker yea that’s what I thought the first time
RIP OFF
Same
Yeh its similar to the old drama drop

Damn I really feel like I'm watching one of Seth's videos. Great work.
Robert Frye u are! This guy is called Seth
Robert Frye for real
Robert Frye it is seth
His name is Seth lol
Robert Frye u are lol 😂 his name is seth🥴
Awesome!! Good job getting it, so smooth on that second try.
You remind me a lot of Seth bike hacks, you legit have some of the most quality content on UA-cam in my mind. Keep up the good work bro
Heck yea dude! You are getting so good at the builds and sending them! Nice job Seth!
What you need is a crap load of peer pressure and much bigger balls!

Adam Kraig true this peer pressire is the way of sending
Someone’s being watching Seth bikes hacks ;)
Shred Machine aye
No kidding 🤨
Finn Con why does It matter buddy?????
Being?
Shred Machine that means we’re getting quality content
I like how you made the drop so it was scary for you. That way, it takes more time to master and more value before you get bored of it!
Lol, We all need a good argument with ourselves, alone, in the middle of the woods every now and then 🤘
The mind is a very powerful thing, and if you let it run loose and get power over you that's when shit can get weird. Mad props for overcoming the fear my dude
I love how you do most of these drops by yourself. I learnt to do this but after a massive 200ft drop innto a mine shafts i have to think twice about being balls deep in the bush
Could u put a roller in between the 2 berms so u can carry more speed through them
I like the progression and the ability to relate to the feelings in this video, along with the awesome trail building and storytelling. Thank you!
TB Goals!!!
... WINTER IS COMING ...
Time to dive in and get busy clearing and building more trails! Your videos are so helpful 👏
Congrats man! Built a great jump and conquered your fears, you're having a great week.

I find that jumping out of trees as a kid has helped my mind overcome drops like this so much
Absolutely awesome 😎 that was incredible
Ohhhhh I understand the feeling really well! I did a drop sessions a few weeks ago and breaking the mental barrier to jump was the toughest part.
Great video, I get very excited when I see the notification popping up.
That was cool well done deafly going to watch your other videos
This is awesome!
I would highly recommend a progressive drop, one that you can adjust the height on, I made mine by stacking pallets, but I went from about 1' to 6' in height over the course of 2 months
I did the same thing but with the landing
Looks great!
awesome
Great video!
Well done keep at it
Awesome build man!!!! Love how your honest about being fearful about hitting features and love the overcoming of that fear. Best feeling in the world when it all comes together. Keep the vids coming man!!!!
That’s why I always full send
Dang, that is a SICK drop. I need to build a big one like that. great job overcoming the anxiety to hit it... Looks big on camera and I'm sure it feels much bigger in person. That is the best feeling when you overcome something like that!
Congradulitos on conquering that mofe!
keep up the good content
Great job. Very fun.
Bruh u have the dream backyard
Noice
Hey man! Love your vids.

I'm loving that noclip drone shot in the beginning
This is awesome now I don’t have to wait for a Seth’s bike hacks video I can watch you
You should have a left hand berm with a shark fin after it 👍
You my friend deserve more subscribers 👍
I live in the most flat area in the world:( but i try to ride everywhere i can. I like videos like this. I subscribed :)
Well done! Looks like if you had anymore speed you would clear the landing ramp!
Great stick dude!
Sick build, and good in ya for hitting the drop! I'd like to build some more wooden stuff especially drops as I don't have too many to practice on at home but woods expensive! lol maybe if I get a job my parent won't have any more excuses ;)
You come up with some really great angles to shoot from , nice work and I am nervous to see what you build next!
That's me every time I look at any feature haha That thing is awesome, way to go!
I wish I had really good trails near me
I applaud you, brave knight of the backyard trail! This was awesome and very inspiring 🤘
Backyard Trail Builds, this is your best video yet! By far. Loved it!
That looks sick!
Good job dude! Your video encouraged me to go out there and build some random woodwork.
Good job on connecting your x-bracing at the center point. Structurally without that the bracing doesn't act in the frame action you are going for.
Also way to hot the drop man.
Build step up step down
Progression dude! Love it
Dude you rock. Had me at 100ft wall. Keep it coming
Literally having the same problem with this jump at my local park I know I can do it because I’ve done stuff like this before and now this video has shown me I can
So thanks (also love the content)
Another winner great idea
Badass vids dude love em! You just have to send jumps like that you just gotta do the 123 go thing and send it man dont over think it!
5:34 it low key looks like he’s 18 yrs old lol 😂
Dude nice job! It’s tough dealing with bigger features but you’re right, it’s all a mind game
I reckon leave the bridge so you have a case pad if you mess up the jump, if you case the step up then that’s a season ending injury. That’s my two cents
Caught your videos from a recommended box coming from Seth’s videos, hope other people do too cause your content is dooooooope
Dude such a great video! Also nice drone work! And that transition at 5:52 was perfect 👌🏼
I had a bad experience on a drop, so I know that anxiety that’s there until you do it again! Nice work
Bike Life with Rob Agreed! I was doing this 4 ft thing, and one go my feet slipped half of the pedals and ever since I’ve been terrified of drops, even if they’re only like 1 or 2 feet
cool idea
sick bass slap
Nice !
That’s a big drop!! Great video as always 🤙🏼
Ahh that looks so sick!!
killing it with the uploads btw
Dude this is amazing. I gotta find a skid steer...
Yew! Sweet drop, and good on you for winning that argument with yourself and sending it 🤘😀
Whoa that was sketch! Soon you will be able to charge to ride your park. Still enjoy your editing style, just seems light and fresh.
I’m assuming you used pressure treated pine for this. How much did the build for the deck cost? If it’s not too much trouble, could you please put up a parts list?
Thanks! Great video.
If I was you, I'd learn how to bunny hop, it can be really helpful at stuff like that!! 😉😉Nice drop!
Greatness
Another great build that I want to come hit. Nice bro
I'm loving these videos man! I've done a bunch of this kind of thing in every house I lived in, after I moved from Vancouver, BC to Tennessee and now Orlando, FL. Hey, if you ever need a place to stay and visit Orlando, come on buy, one day Disney, one day build :). Also are you in St. Louis? I grew up in Manchester.
Orlando! Let's build something Philip! Do you ever ride the night rides on Wednesdays at Markham?
Thats awesome, Philip! Youve lived in some rad places! And yes, I live in STL. Im about a half hour out from Manchester.
Unpopular opinion you should have left the planks crooked it looks really trails and sick
Burke Warren was thinking the same but lol what ever still looks good.
It looks really trails? Wtf does that mean?
I watched a friend on my mountain bike team lose a couple teeth today, I’m glad I didn’t let it get to me, mental barriers are so difficult to deal with.
the first few words of the vid i had to double check if this was Seth or not😂
You deserve so much more subs, keep it up! 💗
I wish i could build a jump in my back yard .It would be so cool
Dang, it’s crazy to see you’ve gone from 200 subs to 14k in about 5 months
your first time be like: 5:24
You should help Seth with his backyard build
Do you have any public trails nearby? Closest for me is about an hour away and that’s why I built some stuff in my backyard. Keep up the great builds and I’m stoked seeing you progress both in building and riding.

I love your vids man Ive been a sub since under 100 and your vids have only got better and better
Just found your channel and subbed keep it up
Don’t forget to pull up when you are hitting the drop. It looks like that what you forgot to do the first time.
your yard looks promising. im more excited on how good biker you will become. disregard those negative comments.
So sick, just gained yourself a sub! You can thank UA-cam suggested 🤘🏻
You should make a trail map for your backyard
Bunny hop off it!
keep doing what ur doing, quality content!
Great video, just wondering why you are using a machete to cut small roots at 0:50 when some small gardening clippers would be way easier and don’t cut into the trail
Thanks Sean! Actually its a hatchet/machete type tool. Its reeeeally great at chopping down to the roots so the weeds wont grow back. You can see im actually chopping into the ground and not the stem of the weed. Good question though!
Send it mate
