- ,Welcome to Episode 19 of my UK mountain biking vlog series. In this episode I headed back to The Forest of Dean MTB trail centre with my cousin Cliff to check out the newly opened FOD Skills area. In my previous FOD video I only did one lap of the jump section, so I really wanted to go back and shoot a more in-depth look at the jump and drop skills line in the FOD MTB Skills Area.

This is my local, I only live 10 mins from FoD and I ride these all the time.... this is a great video you’ve shot here, extolling the virtues of the skills area and your great analysis of Corkscrew, Ski Run and GBU
Thanks for the kinds words Darcy! FOD is such a great spot and will definitely be riding there much more when this lockdown is over! Fortunately I was able to shoot a video at FOD before the new lockdown came into effect so keep an eye out for that!
Nice, far braver than me and my videos! Cheers the sharing
Beat video I've seen of someone explain the place. Loads of pov go pro footage so was great to see you breakdown lines etc..Great effort 👍
Thank you! Hoping to do some more of these for the other trails at FOD, and potentially the skills areas of other bikeparks :D
That peace sign pose, ahahah 😂
Haha!
Nice riding butt. I have a mental block trying that slab drop on GBU 😂 been thinking about it for years and still can't get myself to do it 😂
Cheers Daniel! It can be a tricky one, I remember years ago when I used to ride there I was terrified of the drops on GBU, it is a bit of a leap of faith but soooo satisfying once you get it nailed!
Good skills Matt 👍
Cheers Ryan! Loads more videos coming 🤙🤙
Never seen a bike on a roof upside down before 😂 dope video dude 👊🏼
Haha! Cheers man 🤙🤙
Great vid thanks
Thanks for watching!
Great riding not sure about the music 😁 subbed anyway mate 👍
Cheers mate! Try and keep a nice variety of tunes so it doesn't get to samey! Thanks for the sub 🤘
Hi matt what advice would u giva a young beginner like myself who has recently started mtbing, its one of my favourite things to do love to here any advice from anyone 😁
Hey! Take it in your own stride, ride with other good riders as this will help you to improve and mostly just enjoy yourself! Learning some basics like bunny hops and cornering can be very helpful when starting out too. I only have one tutorial at the moment but have some more planned soon! Keep shredding 🤘
@@loam_chef thanks man will do! 👍🏻
Haha I rode blind down ski run on my xs specialised pitch hardtail completely stock and I’m a size medium but I don’t have another bike but anyway I’m going back in a few days and I might hire a bike this time 😂
Haha that's epic! Go you for sending it! Definitely worth hiring, I'm going back on Sunday!
