    Hey guys! I'm very new to mountain biking and have greatly improved my skills thanks to your videos. One thing that i thought would be helpful is if you could provide a list of the tips at the end of the video so we can screenshot it for easy reference when we're out practicing.
    Absolutely love you guys! Your videos are always very entertaining and educational but what i love best is the fun you have with each other... I'm always giggling out loud in random public places and people must wonder what I'm watching that's so funny. And watching you do what you do..... holy cow i wish I'd started this 30 year ago! Much respect to all of you for your dedication to your craft!🚵‍♀️

    • @thesickhorseranch
      @thesickhorseranch 8 років тому +6

      I picked up the trackstand because I really wanted to do all of the log rides and catwalks at my bike park. How I learned is pointing downhill going as slow as possible and when I lose my balance just roll out of it, try not to put a foot down and just start over. Before I knew it I was trackstanding on flat ground, a 4 inch wide skinny that's 4 feet off the ground is a little different. :)

    • @TheJkghfg
      @TheJkghfg 8 років тому +12

      I'm exactly the same. Anything where I'm throwing my weight forwards I can manage with ease. But pulling a real juicy manual or wheelie just seems to be a pain in the arse.

    I've been practicing a skill called falling off the bike. Ever since I mastered it, I can even let some mysterious red liquid spill, which isn't important btw so you can try to do the trick worry free! Occasionally I see something white (almost skeletal) piercing through the skin. Like I said I have been practicing this so it is completely fine. The negative part is that I feel oxygen deprived sometimes and I have to use a cast when the white bone structure sticks out (I don't know why i have to tho)

    Got all of them on lock except super long wheelie I can do about 30 to 40 feet then it all falls apart. Seems I am not at a solid balance point. On my Kona hardtail. Seems I just keep accelerating till I can’t keep up. Feather the rear break is probably the key. But also concerned the actual balance point is uncomfortably far back. I am 6’2” weight 170 lbs. I adjusted the seat as far back as it goes. I guess I could get a different seat post to move it back some more. Lol. any tips you can throw my way to keep me up longer would be awesome. would be awesome. Practice practice practice practice

    How to stay balanced on cornering on a hybrid bike with pannier bags and slim 700c wheels? The wheelie is tough as in the city it feels difficult to mount those kerbs with all those pedestrians, my arms turn to jelly just at the kerb or I lose my balance if there is a human obstacle.

    Can you do a video , not only list what skills ... , but how to do properly to them and what to pay attention for. On a hard-tail if possible. So we can see better what to do with body position and balance as I feel a full suspension bike is like cheating or not revealing the proper body positions because the rear spring adds a lot ( for bunny hop ) ) Great video's by the way , subscribed !

      jonathan spittlehouse you clearly have no understanding of the benefits of these 5 skills ! Has nothing to do with showing off , has everything to do with absolute bike control. If you’re not in control of the bike in every situation then the bike is controlling you and eventually it WILL end in injury.

  • @chilIychilI
    @chilIychilI 7 років тому

    To bunny hop shoot down a hill and off a lil jump. You will feel what the bike wants you to do to get higher. Wheelies take practice and a lot of commitment. I struggle with getting back far enough to keep it up. Because u have to be a half inch from falling backwards. I think the biggest technic to learn with all of this is body position. Which is hard to explain or grasp when someone's telling you to get back or to get down further... you have to feel it for yourself. But have fun out there. Just being on any trail with a bike brings me a ton of excitement.
