So a lot of people have been asking for a mountain bike how to series, so here it is! Starting with my favourite part of mtb, jumping! But you don't need to be hitting the big jumps at Darkfest or Audi Nines to have fun, so this is dialled back for everyone learning their first jumps at the bike park all the way up to seasoned experts, trying race jumps, whips and scrubs! Hopefully you'll all learn some skills in this video and enjoy watching along the way, and let me know what you want to learn in episode 3 and 4! - Sport
Love it Sam… an area I see few videos on is the mental side of riding, dealing with knockbacks, nerves, fear, improving confidence, building back up after a crash, dealing with days when you feel a bit rubbish. How you've personally overcome some of these mental barriers - The zen of mtbing!
A video on steep dirt jumps and maybe some basic tricking technique.
how to slow down in the air and nose into really short, steep transitions would be great.
@@elijahforthewin you cant slow down in the air.
@@nictreadgold6411 uh, yes you can. Grab your brakes halfway through a 30ft gap and let me know what happens
@@elijahforthewin no u cant, if u grab your brakes you will just go otb
the slowing down comes by the gravity as you reach the maximum height and start going down. you should come slowly and boost the jump, then you are going more up than front.
Who else can jump good, but they're just watching it for fun cause they love Sam?
What best way to learn HOW TO JUMP then to learn it from the guy who started DARK FEAST!!
Great new series 👍🏻
Stylish tables next vid please.
This could be a beginner series, then inters, then an expert series, just a thought 🤞🏻
Start churning the vids lad 🤘🏻
It would be brilliant if you could make a video for more advanced riders showing how to do drops in the range of 10-15 feet.That would be incredibly helpful.
And trick tutorials! (sui’s, no footers - easier tricks)
And steeper off camber drops
yeeee, advanced tutorials about anything really...
It’s hard to find those kind of videos on the internet
If you can do a 2 foot drop, you can do a 10 foot drop. It's exactly the same, but try telling your head that! Granted, you may have to let your front end drop a little as you're more than likely to be landing on a downward slope if it's a bike park drop. You can do it. If you know you can already do 2 feet over and over, no problems, you've got this!
I love this, but my probloom is being scared to jump it
I love the slow motion and also how you demonstrate what your body and bike are doing. Great tutorial 🤙🔥
There are so many "how to jump videos" but I believe Sam explained it best here. A lot of details yet described so efficiently in an easy to understand way.
Perfect video.. im heading to a bike park for the first time in a couple weeks so hopefully I can put all of this to good use.. thanks Sam
Bro riding behind Nikoli was sick. To see the view from the air of how u guys do those jump tricks is AMAZING!
One of the best jumping tutorials I've ever seen! But what about very steep kickers?
For real, steep kickers are my nemesis. I do fine on most trail jumps. But at many jumplines I get my ass kicked by steeper jumps.
@@24MPZ Funny, I felt the same way when I wrote the comment. By now I am throwing nohanders over all kickers I can find😂Start with a small kicker where not much can go wrong and try boosting it over and over again until you feel confident. They are actually much nicer to jump than flat jumps.
@@cheker10000 that's awesome man, congrats on the progression!
love it! Next tip video on riding a medium set of trails!! And basic tricks, shapes, style of airing steep dirt jumps
Best jump video I've ever seen, so well explained and demonstrated thanks Sam, would love a video about braking techniques 😎👏
I so agreed that you have to do this type of coaching series especially basic jump and beginner tricks . Thanks.
that prim and proper english accent juxtaposed with outrageously insane bike skills, full marks sir!!
haha thanks
Thank you so much for this vid Sam ☺️
Amazing explanation.🤩
Whips and scrubs get my vote
I was waiting for this series 😊
It would be amazing if you do a video about jumps with a steep lip, jumping with a full suspension bike!
that one of the best explanations for squashing a jump, cheers
These are great!
Vids on Manuals are always a hit!
Schralping corners!
Riding backwards is a video that you do t see many of them, flat ground 180’s and such. Even if it with a BMX bike it’s fun skill to have !
Great video! Thanks for sharing.
Wicked series! Really clear and easy to understand! Would love to get some tips on drops
Your tables are the best in the business in my opinion. I just learned a lot from watching the clip of you doing the the table over and over in extra slow speed. I never get mine that flat. I'm usually too far back and hit the seat with my thigh. Thanks!!
nice one sam! hope you make a tutorial for dirt jumping.🤘🤘🤘
Great video Sam, keep it up 👍
More on hips would be awesome, my local bike park has a pretty big hip and I’m still trying to figure out how to hit it! Plus different tricks on a hip would be cool to know!
Loved the shout out to Dylan Stark! Such a sick rider who is starting to hit the spotlight more 🤙
Dirt jumps, whips and tables 🤘🏽
Thanks Sam!
Love the vids Sam 👌👌🔥
i love how many times u said hopefully....
Great tutorial from a legend of this jumps 🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻
Remy Metailler does beast scrubs too!
This was great,More videos on dirtjumping please ....
Love the vid dude 👍 could you do one about confidence hitting something scary for the first time please 🙏
I think I'm lacking confidence on and off the bike so any advice is appreciated 😂
Yes, Tabletop and Tail-whip lesson would be great! :)
Cool new content. A how to video on hitting Dirt Jump trails as well as how to build them, would be nice.
Tabletop tutorial please. Great vid Sam!
Instant like because I already know its gonna be quality content
Advice on whips would be cool , thanks for the video Sam big help
Very useful. Thanks for the tips ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️👍
This is what we.. I mean I needed. 😂 I always send it on stuff I shouldn't gotta work my way upto things the right way
Such a good tutorial this, when I try scrub I try to think of how my feet are, and I drop my rear foot to be lower than my front foot, just seems to help me get the bike over. Or I drop whatever foot is on the outside of the bike and lift the inside foot up.
Want lots of Hits and praise from the community , make a series on various skill how to's from beginner to mid then expert . ( Jumps . Turns , etc etc )
Cool! Thats noted mate. Maybe will try experimenting it on a xc hardtail. Thanks for sharing it. :)
Great advice!
Echo what others are saying. How to move on from beginner long and low gaps and tables to steeper faced jumps where you have to commit to the speed and the inevitable height. They look like a wall but in reality are 45 degrees!
Awesome video Sam 😃👍
Can't find a hip around my area and I'm having difficulty trying to do a table top. Great tips by the way!
I could have done with this before my crash last Sunday! Would like to know how to tackle big drop offs
I used to live in Rogate! I sold my house about 2 months ago and now live in Spain, shortly after I moved I found the sport of mountain biking 🥲
Great Video Thanks
Awesome video! Let’s learn how to do table tops.
Cool series sam! Indeed, I need to get better to match the 5 year old schredder kids :) Next up? Lots of people already mentioned all sorts of jumps, so thats good. Especially all the stuff that’s not really useful but looks cool and is fun: that definitely has my vote! Love to see clearing doubles on a pumptrack. I’m struggling to get enough hight/speed/boost
Maybe a how to tabled out whip you and Bren do? Thats the best looking trick on big jumps you do!
the landing flat tip, actually useful in case you over send a jump and you're in the deep end ;)
Great vid 👍🔥
I'm having trouble with steep dirtjumps, I'm compressing a lot on the takeoff, like what one would do in a BMX race track to keep the speed instead of going up
Sick video. Would love some tips on whips and tables
Thanks. I'm learning alot.🇵🇭🤘
i like that Jersey sam...nice video tutorial
Good video Sam. A table / unturndown tutorial would be nice. As well as steep lips.
Ep.3/4 tabletop and whip🙏🏽
I would definitelt like to learn tables, it's a trick that eluded me through my bmx years. Also would like to get more tips on drops, gave myself a separated shoulder this past spring on a drop so want to avoid that in the future
good stuff. i'm eager to learn yo. thanks! buffalo, new york
U make it look so easy...
this is epic mate..Cant beleive ive only just found it. Can you do a video based on boosting and suspension setup for ebikes?
Nice one! How to do whips would be great 🤙
My suggestion would be a video on how to manual rollers. There aren't many out there.
"Not very useful. But cool. That's what cycling is all about." Perfect attitude for riding.
Great video!! Trick video please!!!
And some whips!
Ok, so table tops are a goal of mine but I struggle with them so much. Riding with my left foot forward my hip jams/is blocked when I try to do them to the right (the way most riders suggest to go when you ride with your left foot forwards). So I end up mainly doing them (or trying to) to the left which ends up making me take the left foot off. I've tried Matt Jones' tip of lying on your back and doing it but my hip just goes to a boney block. Technically speaking, I range passive range of motion with flexion, adduction and internal rotation of the hip. Any tips on technique would be great!!!
I'd like to see how to put a bit of style/steeze into my airtime. I'm fairly confident on a lot of jumps but I need to start throwing some some shapes, I'm just getting used to small whips but only to the side where my front foot is. I need to start learning an oppo whip
that will help me out a lot nice 1
Such a good video man, super helpful!!
1 vote here for more info on tabletops/whips!! (Just noticed while doing a tabletop your feet are actually coming off the pedals??)
Kudos Samuel
Hey I’ve hit decent size gaps before but whenever I hit somthing steep of fast that I’m scared of I just freeze up in the air and forget everything I know have any tips to help??
Tks Sam! Why do u recommend landing front wheel slightly first , rather than back wheel?
Then you get control earlier, and if you land back wheel first it can pull the bars down from your hands. And is smoother!
Braking, drops, and body positioning would be good topics. Thanks!
can you do a video on how to progress jumps, like im jumping 8 ft kickers, but if i wanted to try slopestyle jumps, how could i progress to that
Sick vid would be cool if you did a sports science breakdown of darkfest type jumps to help out more advanced reply riders. I'm definitely not that guy but have been jumping bikes for 20 plus years and would love to have some of your genius input into my riding. Safe dog. Thanks
Manuals and wheelies !
Great video Sam - nice and simple! Can you make it look a bit easier though? 😂
1:16 when you just put on a fresh new rubber and want your boys at the top to notice it immediately
The Darkfest clips are freaking me out! 😨
Love from India 🇮🇳
Some tips for really steep dirt jump will be cool and how to get comfortable enough in the air to take your hands of.
Nice Jump Bro..
Salam Dari Ketapang West Borneo Indonesia 😘
Do u have any tips for me, I have been mtb for a while and I struggle with going Off the jump/landing awkward and sideways but only when I try to pump right before the jump
Thank goodness
14:39 "as long as you bring it back before you land". I really wanted some more detail here... landing is quite important to me :D
Great video Sam! ... .Btw, Good clicked tables on a large 29" mountain bike seem massively harder than when I used to do them on a BMX bike. That said, would love a video on how to do a solid table on a MTB!
Finn Iles has some of the best scrubs in the business
Can you do how to ride rough terrain quick and how to deal with arm pump after a long trail,
I would like a video about whips
yess How to table please 🙏
Top sam 👍💪
Yes
