How to build a kicker jump without paying for wood!

Paying for wood can be expensive! I’ll let you know how you can get it for free, and you can build your own backyard pallet MTB kicker.

In this video, I turn 2 used pallets into this awesome mountain bike jump and you can download the plans to build your own.
There are many reasons why you shouldn’t build with pallet wood and they are unsuitable for public mountain bike trails.

You just showed me I dont need mountains for a good jump. The Netherlands will be an amazing riding experience with pallets now!

[@cutlaps]

For sure! I bet there are lots of places you could set a kicker like this up and have a lot of fun.

[@SuperRiderTV]

So awesome! The pallet is a mega building block for all Trials riders, too - it's the key to our progression. We just stack them up (and strap them together) to jump higher and higher!

[@cutlaps]

Oh nice! Trials ridng is so impressive, blows my mind some of the stuff you guys do.

[@finn7453]

I decided to build this yesterday and wow it’s bigger than I expected it to be. Planning on finishing building it tomorrow but I would be lying if I said I wasn’t terrified to send it

[@lisayates7932]

You’re amazing you’ve inspired me so much to start mountain biking again keep up the AMAZING work!❤❤

[@cutlaps]

That is awesome to read! Thank you

[@TriActixn]

Dude, sweet project! My mom and I used to turn old pallets into patio furniture for ourselves and this was some sweet nostalgia. I love how official this looks and your attention to detail. Keep up the good work!

[@cutlaps]

Haha yeah I imagined it looking a bit different in my head lol. At least it stands out for the thumbnail. Stoked you enjoyed the video and brought back some memories of building furniture.

[@InnyShears]

I gotta do this! Thanks for the idea.

[@cutlaps]

No worries!

[@OM64plus]

Loving how simple and humble this is. Instructions right in time for Aussie Summer.

[@cutlaps]

Yeiwwwww things are definitely heating up down under.

[@TeamCykelhold]

Nice build! It's a good idea to prime the wood first and the top layer will be much nicer if you mix it with a bit of sand to prevent it being slippery, as it can easily get after being painted with high gloss paint like it looks like you used. But loving the idea.

[@cutlaps]

Adding sand is a great idea for extra grip. The paint I used is actually self priming with a matt finish.

[@caveman_rock]

Recently came across your channel and it's definitely one of my new favorites. Your trails and all the unique features you've made yourself are so sick and I'm definitely going to attempt to do some fun stuff in my backyard 🤘

[@cutlaps]

Awesome mate! So much fun building and riding your own trails. You will have a lot of fun.

[@kellieramsdale1448]

Why I should win a t-shirt? I think I should win because I’ve got inspired from your gnarly and sick builds/trails and actually got on the tools and made my own massive jumps at my farm. So thank you cutlaps for giving me new ideas each video, thank you!

[@cutlaps]

Wow that is awesome to hear! Sounds like you have a fun bike park of your own to ride. Thanks for commenting and you have ben entered into the next t shirt giveaway.

[@bradleyganz4118]

Love it!! My son and I have been building jumps and skinnies out of pallets for a while now, but this video showed me that I need to step up my game! Thank you for the details!!

[@cutlaps]

Sounds like a lot of fun for you guys. I was kinda suprised how well the kicker came together. It's solid and hard to tell it was even a couple of pallets to begin with.

[@scottmatteson2537]

I love the way you used the pallets for a jump. It’s inspired me to make my own!

[@cutlaps]

Awesome good luck with your build. Always be careful with pallets, some of the wood can be a bit dodgy.

[@MTBLachie12]

I love you cutlaps. I’ve watched you for months and every time you uploaded a video I would go watch it in any situation I was in!

[@cutlaps]

Thanks Lachie! Thats really cool that you have been enjoying my videos.

[@accomplishgames4182]

I absolutely love your videos. I have began my small MTB bark in my back woods solely from seeing you videos and thinking how cool it would be to build stuff like yourself. Absolutely stoked for the next video. Keep on with your great work!

Oh really cool. Are you still using pallets or are they supplying some decent wood?

[@Vindog23497]

so awesome! the pallets look really sturdy, that is a good little jump to do some sends

[@cutlaps]

Yeah, I was a bit nervous about building with pallets, but I think I came up with a pretty strong design. I just need to treat it well and it should last a while.

[@robertfrazier9810]

Exactly what I’m looking for!!!! Thank you!!!

[@cutlaps]

Awesome, have fun!

[@doamono]

Yes Luke!! This video is perfect. Ive actually been working on a wooden "manny pad"/grind box for my unicycle the last few weeks and seeing this has sparked all kinds of new ideas and techniques! I love all of your content mate, please keep it coming!

[@cutlaps]

Very cool, gotta take the time to make a solid build when working with pallets but its hard to pass up free wood!

[@JACKOYTQ]

That looks sick I’m going to make that right away

[@hydroelement9349]

Loved the video! I'm for sure going to give this a shot soon!

Thats awesome, glad you found my channel then!

[@takodahill7789]

Can’t wait to build my own! I can get pallets at work like there’s no tomorrow. I’ll be building all sizes, shapes and maybe even a table top for beginners. I appreciate you doing this!

Awesome! Have fun mate!

[@elliottsfooty]

Hey Mate, your videos have inspired me to build my own jumps you have given me some courage to go outside and be creative. The measurements will definitely help me. Keep the awesome ideas and videos up and have good day.

[@cutlaps]

Thanks legend! That's awesome to hear! It's so fun being creative outside building trails. Let me know if you have any questions, I'm always happy to help.

Will be interesting to see how it performs. Thanks

[@donkauer6744]

WOW !!, just wow. Very awesome video. I just subscribed and liked. The second you put the pic up of the second ramp side, I saw what you did because I still do that from time to time, but used to do it all the time. It was so awesome that you put that goof up for us to learn from and your fix for it.

[@cutlaps]

Thanks for the sub and liking! Yeah it is a mistake I will definitely make again in the future haha. I did remember for the latest build at least.

insane!!!me and my friend wanted to build a mini trail so much we got to make a path but didnt know how to make a kicker.this helped alot thank you so much

[@cutlaps]

Glad to help. Just remember that pallet wood doesn't last long out in the weather. You need to make sure you keep checking it and making sure its strong enough to ride.

[@brandonnicholas3869]

Great vid! Really loving your channel. Keep up the great work

[@cutlaps]

Thanks mate!

[@kodi.hartMTB]

Your videos are so intuitive and entertaining 🙌🏽

[@cutlaps]

Stoked you like them.

[@LochieRaikes]

mate, what ya doing is sick. being able to watch your videos probably made my day. in lockdown we built bike trails in our backyard, we haven't made any wooden kickers yet but this make it seem simple to do so. you should make a vid on how ho make a skinny out of pallets.

[@cutlaps]

Lock down was so good for backyard trails. I actually had a good time duing lock down lol. A pallet skinny could be fun.

[@itsjustme_dw]

Incredible what a clever mind can come up with from junk wood, I've been watching your videos since you were a lot smaller channel, I'd gotten into mountain biking and had just recently broken my clavicle doing a jump... determined to make jumps and trails like you, keep up the awesome videos, they are great entertainment while recovering!!

[@cutlaps]

It was a fun challenge for sure. Hard to tell that it used to be a pallet now. Stoked you have been watching my videos for so long. Hope that broken clavicle is all healed up and you are back jumping.

[@gochyoa6118]

Thanks when i get a bike i neeed jumps in my backyard and this will help me your saving me money thank you again

[@cutlaps]

Hope you get a bike soon!

thanks@@cutlaps

[@foxymann2168]

Thanks for the idea !!! I could build one and put the ramp in my MTB track that i made in the forest.

[@cutlaps]

Sounds good dude! JUst be careful leaving pallet wood in the forest. It really doesn't last long and can break easy. Keep an eye on it.

[@daelveldman8160]

That is the strongest looking pallet jump I've ever seen 😮very well built 👌

[@cutlaps]

Thanks mate! I just hope it stays that way. Always good to check over it before each use, pallet wood can fall apart easy haha

For sure I'm gonna try it!!!

Great idea Luke! Love the tool to get the pallet deck off 👌

YES! I’ve been wanting to make one of these! We have tons of pallets on our ranch and I re-use them all time and I learned a lot, thanks for boiling all your learnings into a condensed how to Luke! I just bought a pallet buster from your link 😎

[@cutlaps]

Nice, I learnt a lot more in my pallet research but couldn't include it all for fears of boring people haha. The pallet buster is handy. The handle seems a bit flimsy but it worked. Easy to replace the handle if needed. Send pics of what you build.

[@mattspen]

@@cutlaps will do. My pallet buster arrived I see what you mean by flimsy, maybe I’ll replace the quick release, but it’s not too bad, a little short for us tall guys. I’m slowly building a shed for the time being.

Yeah better wood is a good choice. You can build a better shape kicker then and not be constrained by the size of the pallet wood. But this was a fun challenge.
