Building our NEW Backyard Dirt Jump Line!

We build and ride an entirely new medium size dirt jump line with my kids in our ridiculous backyard. This is the full build from beginning to end. We started with the new Roll-In that we built in the last video - • Building our Backyard ...
Then we moved a ton of dirt, built framed up wooden landings with lumber I made using my Alaska Mill on a Stihl 460, and then we built wooden lips for the take off's. Of course ride the finished jumps on our BMX bikes and MTB Dirt Jumpers.

Eric is the dad I wish I had growing up, watching him teach his kids all the cool stuff is amazing and exactly the type of dad I want to be

[@doctajuice]

My dad taught me how to work with wood and I took those skills and built jumps on my own. We never had the space or the resources to do anything this wild though. This is a god-tier childhood

[@lmsteelv7720]

My dad teaches me just like he teaches his kids and that the type of dad I want to be it is a really important skill and it's alot of fun

Always been a huge fan but seeing you be such an amazing dad makes me even a bigger one. Love seeing you teach your boys life skills. AWESOME!!

[@PorterMTB]

Thank you so much, glad you’re enjoying it! Definitely been fun spending more time with the kids!

[@scottshamrell2109]

My family was passing by Eric’s place while he and his boys were building these jumps. He took a moment to chat it up and snap a pic with my son who races mountain bikes, it totally made his day. Thank you for being a class act and great ambassador for our sport!

[@PorterMTB]

It was great to meet you and the crew! Glad you guys enjoyed the video, and hope to see you again someday!

Wow! Father & son bonding! I love that! As for me, we go on trails with my son. He hits jumps way too better than me when I was his age (18). My youngest is still learning how to ride a bike. As for my girls (wife & eldest daughter), they"d prefer long flat rides (lol). Greetings from the Philippines!
