How to read MTB trails and why you need to learn how to bump jump.
Вставка
- Опубліковано 17 жов 2022
- Experienced mountain bikers know how to pick the best lines and sometimes it's the little things that they are looking for. Getting assistants from small roots or rocks to get over difficult sections is a technic called bump jumping. Once you master this skill your riding will reach the next level.

I'm a convert. From now on it's Bump Jump. No need to overthink something that is easy and just makes sense.
This is great. I've been riding for more than thirty years and while I've used that technique before, I never really gave it enough thought to call it a name, and I certainly never took the time to master it. Thanks for a thoughtful explanation of something I always just thought of as flow. Sometimes you got it, sometimes you don't, but if you practice good technique you probably got it more than you don't.
Glad you liked it. It’s something we all use, but we never really think about it.
Hey great video man. I like the way you break things down. Like others I'm sure I've used this at times but probably never mastered it and used it to my benefit as much as I could. Gonna definitely be looking at the trails differently now 👍
Just bumped into your video the first time and loved it! Didn't realized you were former champ.andonly realized you were one of my favorite when I first got into MTB. Liked and subscribed!
Thank you so much, really appreciate it. 👍
man i just found you! after 1 year watching bike videos, and you so good in explaining
Thank you, really appreciate it 👍
Man wish I could ride with you. I’m starting this sport and your tips are awesome. Thank you.
thank you so much, I am happy this helps. Maybe we'll run into each other someday on a trail, you never know. Cheers :)
@@cyclingskills True. Cheers.
Thanks for the fantastic content and editing. I'm glad I subscribed
I started learning bump jumps this year and I'm addicted. I really scan the trails for them now. They are so rewarding with little risk. Natural roots are the best ones!
Totally agree!
Excellent video.. and great bike! I've had my M4 for a couple years now and love it.
Great vid. Bounce of the back of stuff is good too
Nice one! Good video, "und wie immer," so humble while still being cool suave and sophisticated. 👍
great video, thanks for the coaching tip. greating from france😊
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks Jurgen, I need all the help I can get smoothing out my local rides.
No problem, local rides are the best. That’s when you know all the problem roots and rocks by their first name. 😜
Very useful advice. Nice work.
thank you, I try :)
Interesting. I’ll try it. Thanks!
Great video Jurgen!! Love it!
Glad you enjoyed it

I’m In my 40’s just starting this sport, it’s inspiring to see you dominate this sport. thank you for the motivation
Thanks, keep on keeping on. 👍
You're such a chill dude. Liked and subscribed. 🙂
chill? Maybe - (when the camera is rolling :) Just kidding, I have seen too much and know it's not worth getting upset about 99.9% of life events. Thanks for the subscribe
Awesome MTB trail
Great ride adventure bro
Thanks for the awesome video. I love doing bump jumps! It's my bread and butter. I've yet to clear a gap and catch a down slope thus far let alone clearing a double. I've never been able to fully let go yet.
Ok coolio, we’ll work on that next. Thank you for the feedback. Keep enjoying that bread and butter. Cheers J.
It is a little secret one that I learned when I was a kid ( I'm now 52) and it's one that I've used for years. I will bump jump first before I bunny hop (although I can do both) but that's my secret too to keeping speed.
I do the same thing man shred on bro🤘🤘😁
Nice, experience matters 👍👍👍 Keep on keeping on.

Nett gemachtes Video, du alter Schönberg-König! Gruß nach Amiland!
Ahhh, schöne grüße in die alte Heimat. Esse man ein Schnitzel für mich 😬 Bei uns ist alles in Butter, lass es Dir gut gehen. Cheers
If you're running TUBES, make sure to run DH 1.4 mm thick ones for bump jumps safely
You can also make sure to keep your tire pressure from dropping too low. This technique worked fine before anyone ran tubeless.
Great video,is this possible using flat pedals?
Yes, absolutely. The technic is the same. Check out my Bunny Hop video, that might help. Cheers ua-cam.com/video/Mq5cucUDli4/v-deo.html
Can I use this technique as well with a hard tail?
absolutely, the only different is less pre-load.
@@cyclingskills thanks! I really appreciate and enjoy your videos! 👍🏼🤘🏼
Are you using the force of the shock ? Or just lifting the front of the bike? I can’t even lift the wheel 2 inches of the ground 🎃
Same technique as the bunny hop, but less preloading and timing it to the obstacles your bumping off of. ua-cam.com/video/Mq5cucUDli4/v-deo.html
Don't try to lift the handlebars, just move your weight back and pull the bars back

Hey there, I am in upstate New York. Schöne Grüße in die alte Heimat 👍
Doesn't it makes you more tired because of the extra effort?
it's actually less effort and therefore makes you less tired.
@@cyclingskills thanks!
Good for explaining what a bump jump is and when to do it, but super poor for explaining how yo do it.
sorry to disappoint, but it's just like a bunny hop a little too late that bumps off said obstacle. I guess you didn't watch the part where I called myself a moron. Lowered expectations please :)
Good info but it was hard to concentrate on what you were saying due to the forest of nose hairs shining in the light. Lol!
Oh, I know. My modeling career is over. :( Haha. That's was 50+ looks like, my hair is migrating from my head into all the wrong places.
Like way to long głos one. Sorry 🤗
Bump jumping is for old people? Count me in! 😁 Great video!
