Can My Kids Teach Me How To Whip at Whistler???

[@wallyworld6249]

Always love your videos, super fun, no cussing, family oriented, and real. And it's so cool to see them boys develop into amazing riders as expected from a pro father. Owen's whip was the best.

[@jakethewolfproductions8733]

As a new rider to Mountain Biking, to see even a pro like you struggle a little with learning something new (not saying this to be mean of course) it is encouraging to me as a noob. It reminds me not to be frustrated when I have a hard time with the basics

[@splooshmtb]

Man I think more important than these whips is the life you're breathing into these boys. I can't think of a single time my father wanted to partake in a mutual hobby and share stoke like this. I know you know this but you're really imprinting something special here on them.

[@dannylenz4955]

As a MTBer in his 40s w kids similar age, seeing you struggle w things in a similar way is truly humbling and inspiring. Gives me the confidence and motivation to keep working hard on my own jumps skills. Thanks for how you bring this content!

[@shanemb3]

Makes me want to give up and admit I’m too old for it.

[@jdenmark1287]

Your boys are absolutely crushing it! You as a dad, are too. Brilliant display of humility and courage. As for your whips, instead of thinking of leaning, think instead that your hands and feet are the axis between your body and the bike that you twist by counter pulling your hand from counter pushing your foot down. Then let your hips become the next axis of pivot to allow your legs to go parallel to the ground while your body stays vertical and your hands stay horizontal.

[@adamweb]

MTB has progressed so far lmao I love that in 2024 a pro rider is legitimately learning tricks from his kids 😂

[@skookumbuilds3282]

ikr

[@petersiska6915]

More of a fluke that he can’t whip but yes I totally agree

[@jcsrst]

Great to see the boys growing up and teaching Dad how to whip!

[@danielray1558]

This was awesome. As a Dad I love when my kids get better at me than anything. I don't ever go easy on them, but I've been surprised at how fast they learn and grow. Way to go Owen and Miles

[@motojaymo6653]

Yes!! Another Porter video! This is just an observation and I'm not winning any whip contests myself but I noticed that both Milo and Owen in attack position ride goofy foot whereas you ride regular foot like me. I know with practice people can whip both ways but for me personally it's much easier because of my stance to whip to the right. (Turning the bars to the right off the lip) rather than to the left like your boys. I think it has something to do with my right foot being rearward and being able to help push the rear of the bike sideways. And there's my two cents. 😊

[@nasirebrahim1]

yeah that’s definitely something to think about

[@SuperRiderTV]

Dad Goals right here! 🤞

[@pedrito5477]

I love how humble and real you are bro! Amazing Dad, Keep the good work!

[@Teracis]

Surely even Devo would be proud of those whips! These are the best clips of all, seeing everyone have a great time and riding together lifting each other. A bunch of legends right here. Thanks for the tips on how to whip too!

[@n1sm0r]

You are such an inspiration Eric. Your attitude towards challenges and the way you talk to your kids are life goals

[@bikdav]

Welcome back Porter MTB. You are doing real the big job. You are taking Owen and Milo out to "do cool stuff" (as the 3 Brothers Extreme would say it).

[@peterfairhurst]

Thank you for sharing this skill progression you are working on. It’s nice to know that we all have aspects of improving and learning a new skill!! My list is long, but slowly improving! Next year I am ready to try A-line - wish me luck🤞🏻!!

[@saywhaatnow]

I've been loving these vids. Y'all are rad!

[@tylaganter9672]

Please keep on making videos you’re the best KZbinr❤

[@trevorm6828]

great video, awesome to see you learning something new and owning that its hard. Also, the fear of being older and knowing consequences more than kids, kids still bounce pretty good. Us parents don't recover so fast.

[@valentinakimbrough3091]

im working on my whips to and this video really helps

[@KestrelYI]

One more comment! I guess it is one thing to acknowledge getting beaten by your kids.. but on the other hand, without YEARS of your coaching and guidance, they wouldn't have gotten there. Making someone better than you is perhaps the highest compliment as a teacher. In that regard, kudos to you because they've both become incredible riders.

[@teddymccarter]

Hey Eric I was in whistler during crank worx too I’m from England and I got a picture and asked you about what video you were filming and you said learning whips I’ve been so excited for it to come out love your videos so much please keep up the good work

[@mtbextreme01]

wow! they have progressed sooo much!

[@KestrelYI]

Following the kids down Dirt Merchant, indeed! Mega proud-dad moment. Great stuff : )

[@ILoveshredding]

I live Milo and Owen’s energy it’s awesome. I really think they should join a local N.I.C.A league they are awesome or even to a video about it I think they have one in must states it would be sick. It’s more xc style but would still be awesome to watch #morekidsonbikes

[@sebastiannielson1952]

They both race nica already!

[@pwarren31]

From one Dad to the dude's, rock on!!

[@kainpwnsu]

Super cool! I need asome lessons from Owen

[@hafidzgazali249]

So lovely father son relationship

[@skookumbuilds3282]

you guys are an awesome family!

[@garyharmon5386]

Awesome. Your boys have gotten so good

[@EvanFisher-y4k]

Love the content can’t wait for more

[@01FozzyS]

The boys are growing up fast!

[@killa_klaus242]

Those whips from Milo and Owen were PROPER. So sick to see the boys ripping!

[@timparker533]

Whips are done in a rowing motion, drop your bottom elbow as you carve off the lip leaned over then let the bike’s rear end swing out and around as your body stays straight. Do not use your butt or legs to kick the rear end out, this is improper technique and not a whip, it’s a kick out. I come from a motocross background.

[@DaneFaatz]

Owen being a better guitarist is so true he absolutely shreds

[@Football_Rally]

Nice one guys Please can you post more regular content The bike park near my house is insane with lots of whips and jumps I used these videos to good effect So good I am now able to 360 of a drop Thanks for the support guys and see you in the next one

[@Trailberto]

Just wow, What a great video, and Dad, and Kids. If you ever make it to Prescott maybe Master Owen can teach me how to jump lol. Thanks for sharing.

[@evancathey3968]

For some reason I imagine whips in almost like a circle or figure 8/ °° the front wheel does a circle and the back wheel does a circle in opposite directions directions. That way it comes back. So front wheel goes down and around rear wheel goes up and around. (For moto whip style whips)

[@davisjl1979]

Jeez, I remember seeing these guys at berm park opening day. Growing up fast

[@masl2387]

Yes finally you uploaded🎉

[@shanemb3]

Interesting perspective about being centered and balanced vs not.

[@sophiehill-p8r]

I love watching these videos

[@fernandorcrespojr.699]

Love this , My wife and my girls love watching you guys keep the videos coming. if your ever in the Jacksonville area in florida check out Trek Trails aterro Park

[@llullwllallkll]

they grow so fast!!! ✌️✌️✌️

[@Opd351]

the fresh Leatt kit is so dialed on Owen

[@scottmclelland9728]

Coolest dad ever for sure.

[@taylorklein2378]

Just my hot take, tombstones are one of the hardest lips to learn to whip properly. Perfectly fine once your whip is second nature.

[@IBanjoI]

I love matt jones and porter

[@DaneFaatz]

Was this for fall break? I was hanging out with them before but I thought they said they weren’t going anywhere

[@clearviewtrees123]

You’ve got it dad 🤘😂

[@dandonato8615]

[@urbanmanc]

I suppose it depends what ‘hand’ you are too, if you’re right handed drop the left side of the bike 🤷‍♂️

[@michikocohen7000]

I really enjoy watching you but

[@Alexander-dun]

is this old footage or are you back at whistler?

[@otissssssssssssssssss]

4.25 hahahahah

[@buckweat420]

Second!

[@PCADVENTURES92]

Not sure if you or anyone will see this comment as the video is 2 years old, but ill post anyway. How do i conquer my fear of jumping again? I had a pretty decent dirtbike accident a few years back where i broke 4 ribs and punctured one of my lungs, and im just so scared to jump now, i have just recently gotten into mountain biking with my son and i find that even small jumps now i am scared of. i roll over them or jam my brakes on and my body control is just terrible now. Does anyone have any tips? Thanks

[@peterfairhurst]

I’m not a coach, but just another middle aged guy figuring things out. I have taken some coaching sessions and that really helped. For me, repetition has been invaluable. The mental blockers are legit though and I get it. Start small, build your confidence with repetition, listen to your instincts and if you aren’t feeling it wait for a day you are riding really well, give yourself grace, get some coaching, and know it will improve in time.

[@PCADVENTURES92]

@peterfairhurst you sir are a gentleman, I appreciate the kind helpful words, I'll give it a try, all the best riding bud 🤙🤙

[@toby_vassallo]

What happened to your poc sponsor?

Whips are hard to teach. I think its better to watch and just try. Everyone one has a different style of whip!

[@Dare_davilo4]

He js casually meet a red bull athlete who jumped his house

[@scottkaptein-u8h]

Second, the fact that you’re 12-year-old son is better Then you at whips and 12 I’m also 12 and I just started mountain biking. I can’t even Anything more than a blue or green?

[@C_Haberstoked]

Damn your kids rip!
