I Built a Lake Jump To Learn Backflips On!

- Want to see a backflip on a mountain bike into a lake? Watch us build a Lake Jump in Dave's Backyard for jumping bmx, mountain bikes, and any other type of bike. He wanted to have a ramp to do a flip on. We had a ton of fun riding this thing. Dave has around 30 acres of premium land for mountain biking and a 5 acre lake, perfect for backflipping. Flying off a ramp into a lake with a bike feels weirder than you would think.

Everyone needs a friend like Dave! I'm still trying to process that he seriously considered attempting his first ever back-flip without a padded landing and on a 70 lb bike!
people thought i was crazy just for trying my first flip on a 29er. and i had a landing made of snow haha
We use to jump ramps into ponds as kids in the late 70's on hot summer days, totally believe every cyclist needs to try this at least once.
I Def wanna try it. Does it harm ur bike tho? Like does the water get in the frame or somewhere and rust?
@@Losovox Yes it will, so I would recommend using a cheap bike you don't care about....maybe a garage sale find
@@johnnydoe66 ok, maybe i'll use my little sister's bike that she's all but grown out of
@@Losovox You might pack the headset, crank, and wheel bearings with automotive grease, it will withstand the water a bit better than bicycle grade grease.
@@johnnydoe66 ok, thank you for all these tips
Assuming Dave has a house on this property, then it's safe to say he's got my dream setup. 30 acres of land, a 5-acre swim-safe lake on that land, and a cabin in the woods. I can't think of anything better.
The on property lake is a dream
thats what a killer would say, too ;) XD
the assembly at the end of the doc.....reminded me of something Willie coyote would build. ACME all the way
This thing looks insane! We have a hidden one in whistler thats basically that but off of a 15 foot cliff. Never tried it, but it looks gnarly.
DUDE HAS BALLS, like who would backflip that on a ebike with no foam pit, I could never
Awesome build! I know the channel is more about building than riding but really wish we got to see some better sends than a one hander and half a frontflip for a landing with almost no consequences. All that grip tape would make it perfect to learn spins, whips, whatever!
I learned about your channel from your brother, he’s a great teacher
That is awesome hey as long as you're having fun and nobody's getting hurt
You need a steeper ramp to get the rotation easier. Rather than going forward you need to go up more. Flipping is basically counting the curvature of the ramp.
Back to the crazy shit!! This is what we like to see, bloody awesome Mate!!!
You had me at backflip..i wish we had a "safe place" to practice this...stuff.
i brought a ramp to a local boat ramp one day and did it haha. (a ramp that hardly gets used tho, so i wasn't in people's way)
Nice!!! Water jump for the win!
These are getting crazier and CRAZIER!
The most underrated channel in the world
Dave is a Mad Man! Way to go @OneMTB! Great video Seth
Dave is my hero
My local MTB park has one of these but 2x bigger! It’s sick!
Freaking love this. Love ya Dave. Back flip it you got it.
You should make a detachable lip. Then he can take it on and off. A little bit of a lip might help him throw the backflip and then you can take it off for everybody fun
Wait has this guy done a colab yet with Berm peak yet? They totaly should!
Love the vids seth keep em coming 🤘
Love the series. 😊
that is such an easy and ingenious way of building the curves... man I really love your channel, the craftsmanship is inspiring... and yes I am building and arrow ramp this week...
Wow 😯 that was awesome
Nice Sampler shirt! Sick project Seth, keep doing what yo do!
Dave is too cool, i want a go
Dave -
To do a backflip you need to lean forward more first to get momentum to pull back. Same for the front flip. Lean really far back to get momentum to go forward.
Right on Dave! Great video
you should make a series of ramps made of nothing but pallet wood.
Dave is a mad man!!! I love it.
love your work seth!
this isn't Seth
@@idiots_4_life816 Berm Peak and Backyard Trail builds are both owned by people named Seth
@@idiots_4_life816 bro backyard trail builds and berm peak are both called seth idiot
I'm glad things are going better for you man!
That looks fun as man! It makes me miss lake jumping.
Nice spot for a ramp... Lovin the sampler love ana top stuff
this would be so sick for 4th of july bbq party
Good Build
Can you give us advice of to build a mtb track in your next video
This "next big project" sounds intriguing 🙃
Fun to watch, great video, but the kicker could have been half the weight and a lot steeper + you don't need traction for backflips :P
Man this channel is so good ❤️
Keep up the entertaining content😀
for the health of dave and your friendship never let him go full send again.
“This is a switch bike… This is Dave.”ah much better😅
That is so cool 😂👍
Working construction in bare feet is an ideal summertime activity.
nice build
You should make a homemade airbag jump at your place without an airbag
Love how going "old school" means using modern construction tools and supplies. We need that mindset: the unsustainable ways are in the past.
You wish haha
in Florida, that would be water you DO NOT want to be in. that's brain amoeba water.
*NEVER swim in warm stagnant water, kids*
florida is a weird place for sure
Brain amoeba?
@@charliemiller4111 google florida brain amoeba. in summary, in hot swampy humid areas water that looks like that would be dangerous. stagnant, warm, greenish cloudy appearance...
completely normal "swimming holes" in other states are deadly in the swampy south. stick to springs, rivers, and beaches.
Who needs a foam bit when you’re mates with Seth!! 😂
WOW good video
I need one of these
USE A STAPLE GUN AND STAPLE THE GRIP TAPE. It will definitely curl up and fall off if you don’t.
When you don’t have an airbag, you gotta improvise
Grip tape, great idea if you fall on your back 🤣. Make sure to have a few gallons of alcohol 70% with a spray bottle.
No, seriously, it looks phucking fun!👍😎
This is the first time We've seen Seth use power tools in a long time!!
And also Dude how do I get copyright claim and you don't (for the Tigerblood Jewel music)
Pretty funny what passes for a garden in America :D
Sick haha
Nice
Was larger rope to pull the dock not available at home Depot that day?
Cool
Endo for president 2024
are you friends with the singletrack sampler?
Hello😄🔥👍
holy music volume batman
Nice shirt
Single track
i like the thumb nail i thought this was a seth video lol
ur truck is my dream truck but i want the zr2
W
Front flip is 10x sketchier than a backflip lmao
Whole video I was hoping this did not end up with Dave in the hospital.
Did Brody get a concussion?
Steeper ramps are easier to initiate backflips
going "old school" using lag bolts...I thought hand drilling holes and shaping pegs was old school!?
Ok first off what ebike does he have that weighs that? Holy crap! Mine is a full downhill ebike and is 47 pounds. Second why didn't he jump it..... lol.
Time to save up for a big air ramp! That is my goal soon!
What is the name of the song when you guys were going of the ramp
yeah, magic spoon aint cutting it for me. a normal package of cereal (375g) is 2,5$. so one box of magic spoon costs (198g) 8,50$. thats 4x the price!
Noooo RIP Pond Skinny
How many chickens do you have?
how much is a serving?
don't rent heavy equipment if you own land, you will need it later anyways
CNN How high were the costs for materials
for the whole ramp?
Second
I did stuff like this but one time my foot landed on my bike and I got eight stitchesMind you I’m pretty young
Rip pond skinny
IT IS A FRONT FLIP
So awesome!!!
My 1 dad safety comment. I'd suggest wearing life jackets in case you hit your head on the bike and get knocked unconscious.
Someone's gotta say it dude: you need a haircut.
U need to use a BMX smaller bike
My friend Braden Johnson just took 5th in worlds xc
ramp too mellow for backflip
I have watched all of your videos from day one can I get a shoutout
Yea me too
