Can I Ride The WORST Indoor MTB Switchback Ever?

- Now that we have the Marin Rift Zone 2 built up, it's time to put it to the test! Since the weather is still a bit rough right now, I decided to use the obstacles in my warehouse to challenge myself on my new 29" wheels. I scared myself a few times, but it was worth it - I came out on the other side with more confidence in this new bike than I expected!
This year we are going to continue practicing all of the skills that I showed in this video (and more) - and within the next few weeks, we should (hopefully) be able to get outside for some rides!

The named boxes reminded me of how in bentonville you called one of the giant rocks a "box". I though oh no, too much time in the shred spot. Aaron sees the whole world as different boxes like how hungry cartoon characters see their friends like a giant cooked turkey on a platter.
Hahaha did I? That sounds about right. Although to be fair, some of those "rocks" were artificial, so I might have been more accurate than expected! ;)
Yeah. You corrected it right away. I just thought it was funny knowing you surround yourself with boxes.
Bigger bikes are much easier to get up bigger stuff, until you get to the point where it is just a pure jump. It's a three pallet difference between my 29r and trials bike for a comfortable roll up.
I was honestly so blown away! I always thought the 29er would be harder to deal with, but so far it feels like the opposite.
Soon, there will be 100k people who saw your videos and loved them enough to subscribe. Great awesome job reaching this milestone. 😁
That's going to be a crazy moment. Thanks so much for being here!
@@SuperRiderTV You are on fire Aaron.
Here in your garage... There is knawledge!
2:04 Aaron’s power foot is toward the obstacle. I practiced this way and it’s ingrained. Then it was suggested that when I get to higher obstacles I’ll want my power foot outside. I’m trying to change up but it’s tough.
I'm very impressed with people who can lift the front with just a quarter stroke or ⅛ stroke .
I can only do a ¾ with the same foot forward only
Great fun to watch and learn 😊
"Nose pivot drop" (I didn't knew the name) are really fun I used to do that a lot as a teen, especially coming fast off curbs since it impressed my friends, makes my son cringe a bit tho 😂
Thanks!! I love a good nose pivot drop (or the 180/360 version of this!)
Looks like a lot of fun. Tempted to try some more MTB trials!
So fun! Pleasantly surprised how well the 29” wheels works for this stuff!
Love your videos
Thank you!
No problem
Bike is looking sweet. Like this video. I know I'm going to watch it again.
Thanks! Excited for this season!
The fun begins with irritating a group ride scene by returning to a feature to hit it a couple times to improve bike handling skills in the real world! 😁
Hahaha they’ll forgive you eventually :)
@@SuperRiderTV My buddy, Aaron sez, practice makes progress, so gotta does what I gotta does!! 😜
Can you make endo 180 tutorial pls
Yup! Here you go: czcams.com/video/ZVHBmjFjq-4/video.htmlsi=DWZFCCxLqF7K_ee2
Most underrated skill ever, the tutorial was great 👍
@@SuperRiderTV Thank you
Have fun! @@tonihozic
@@SuperRiderTV Thank you
Hey there...I need you to make a another video to help me progress from back wheel hops to actual pedal kicks that hop me forward. Im not sure how to set up my bike/body position to time the pedal kick so that it gets me airborne! Thx!
I got you! Here's a video all about pedal kicks: czcams.com/video/oJbOfanxMCs/video.html
@@SuperRiderTVthanks.. I have seen that one.. it's very good. I was hoping for more detail on how you move your hips and drop the front wheel prior to engaging the pedal kick. I guess I'll eventually figure it out.
Cool switchback! Why did you route your front brake hose on the outside of your fork? I think it's "supposed" to be routed on the inside.
Thanks! I’ll have a look at the routing, definitely could be my mistake 🤷🏻♂️
Looking for a recommendation on durable and grippy flat pedals.. what do most of the pro trial riders tend to use?
I'm riding Deity TMAC pedals on this bike and absolutely love them - there's a link in the description if you want to pick up a pair. The Deftrap pedals are a little bit more affordable and super good, too. I use both of them!
Dude please suggest me 26" tier for street trail bike and can I use Crossking (performance folding bead) or iKon(dual compound folding) for street trail? Which is better?
I have Ikon on my street trials bike, they work great!
Sorry if it's appeared in another video but I haven't seen details - that bike looks pretty small for you, do you mind sharing how tall you are and what size the bike is?
I’m 5’11” and this is their Large frame
Do you need strong muscles to do what you did in the video? Because i am on the weak side. Thank you
Not at all - when I started riding I was 5'2" and super tiny. The best part about all this is that technique outshines muscle.
The worst switchback ever would be steeper and have a couple of step downs in it whilst being tight.
True. How about "worst indoor switchback"? :)
@@SuperRiderTV Make it with three different height boxes and it would still be indoor.
You have the boxes already.
Have you thought about having another box on the outside right to simulate the high outer side of a left hand switch back? That way you have to hop and lift your rear up and onto it to get round.
👍
is there a tutorial?
Absolutely: czcams.com/video/ZVHBmjFjq-4/video.html
