Goon on 2 Stroke Trying New Jumps

Grabbed my 2 Stroke KTM and went to track I haven't been to in a long time. Had a great time with friends like always! I practiced my confidence when hitting jumps and diving into ruts, learning more each ride. Hope you enjoy the video, thanks for watching.

You inspired me into riding! Thank you so much, i'm having the most fun i've ever had!

[@DerekHallman]

LOVE to hear this! Keep shredding 😁

[@scrubz7441]

What always helps me in corners is keeping my outside leg tight against the shroud and honestly I feel like I push into it as well as the peg.

[@SinisterS1K]

So bummed I missed out on riding this day, looks like a blast 🤘🏼🤘🏼

[@DerekHallman]

Wish you could've come man it was a great day! We'll ride sometime soon

[@Tellvr]

I’m a young kid and I just got my first manual clutch and I haven’t rode on a track yet with it but I have rode once on a track and watching you we’re on the same level

[@Yoseype]

You've made a ton of progress in your riding from when I first started watching you man, keep killin it!! ✊💥💥

[@DerekHallman]

Thank you for the positivity Joseph I really appreciate it! 🤙🏻

[@sptnk87]

So what helped me was, going further forward on the tank when going from standing to sitting. Like over exaggerate everything. Keeps the front wheel in the rut and sometimes some front break aswell. And keeping the foot on the pegs in all corners, Leav the clutch and back breaking alone aswell. Just throttle in corners for balance, smooth throttle. It takes some time to getting used to. But it works wonders, I do put my leg up sometimes now but it’s not necessary really. Except if you have a really deep rut that’s gonna catch your foot and rip it off the peg.

[@mxoudi]

This was a fun day!! Enjoyed riding with you all. Love this video and the edits 🤘👏

[@DerekHallman]

Always a good time riding with the dudes 😎

[@samuelmendoza326]

I cant tell if your doing it already but what you should do is lean the oppisite way of the turn and lean the bike into the turn so basically try to sit on the side of the seat

[@ballou1777]

I had a great time riding with all you guys. Another great video!!!👍🏾

[@DerekHallman]

Definitely was a great day! Let's ride again soon 🤙🏻

[@asaswearingen1871]

Awesome video man! Love you Derek!

[@DerekHallman]

Thank you!!

[@thegrossmansmx]

that rhythm section is nice i wish more tracks had that instead of table table or double table or double double double. like be unique lol. that track has it all. but that jump out of that sand section is sketchy lol

[@sheltonbeard4528]

That track looks perfect for someone who is a beginner . The track around my house is fuckin brutal like 2 table tops. Every jump sends you to the moon. I’ve been a couple times but the big tracks are so intimidating I never build the courage to do more than 1 or 2 laps.

[@zxstyz8436]

Hey I have a tip, s when you are in a rut hold on to the clutch and then slowly release it out of the rut to give you way more momentum, hope this helps

[@craigsteinman9807]

Damn that was a hard get off..surprised me ..glad your ok

[@DerekHallman]

I actually didn't crash luckily! When I overjumped and hit flat, my gopro smashed into my handlebars and flew off my helmet. All good 😁

[@urxntia]

I’ve been riding for just over 2 months now and I always go on this little track near where I store my bike. And because I live in England it’s always a pain to find decent tracks. Anyways the roots on the track currently riding at are so bad. I never go a different path due to me crashing when I first started.

[@taylorshytle]

@@DerekHallman the riding footage of the rhythm section was awesome and how you did POV and 3rd person from your buddies really brought it all together! I see you trying stuff not just on the dirt bike 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@nabionic]

Body Position is everything in ruts... Dont need to worry about moving forks yet.. Brake before the corner Centre yourself on the bike Lay the bike over put your ass crack on the outside edge of the seat. Weight the outside peg and accellerate through the Rut... Weighing the outside peg plants the rear and stops it from popping out of the rut

[@FRIKANDELLENBROODJ3]

He so clean with it like axel Hodges

[@tigerstrike2619]

great ridding! it was funny when your front end was super high in the air on that one jump!

[@DerekHallman]

Haha thanks Tiger!

[@filipolson9549]

a tip is try to rev more in the curves and try taking curves faster and faster but damn you jump good

[@StoneMountainMoto]

Just had a group chat today with my buddies about holding a line in corners and high speed vs low speed compression. Too much science for me. Seems like we're going thru the same mx experience though. Hope to make vlogs as 🔥 as you one day though 😉

[@DerekHallman]

Thanks for watching buddy I appreciate it!

[@haydenwilliams3119]

I just started track on my two stroke going my second time this weekend love learning with you🤙

Man i love someone using a 2 stroke, i also use one, and when i come to the track i see nobody with one xD, i have a 250cc 2 stroke gas gas with 62 bhp, this bike flys over the track, and how it sounds like crazy hahaha in comparison with 4 strokes, i know u feel me 😉

Do you ever nosedive by accident letting off the throttle on the face like that? I know 2 strokes don’t have much engine braking but it still messes with my brain 😆

[@haydensimpson4594]

What is the name of that track looks really fun. I love your GoPro set up can you tell me what your GoPro setup is like mounts.

[@DerekHallman]

this is south fork mx. My gopro is mounted on the chin piece of my helmet. The mounts, windscreens, and microphone I use are all listed in the description for ya.

Watched some older vids and saw you riding out at west craven. Wondering if you’ve tried out cowbranch and which track you prefer

I like them both a lot. I think Cowbranch is better for all skill levels though. I thought Cowbranch was permanently closed though?

from what seem'ed to help odi is standing up going into a rut and then sit down as late as possible, obviously this might not help you or I just wasn't paying enough attention to notice you doing that which is on me

[@Doorbell69]

you have to shift up!

[@TheWakeupsheeple]

Hey Derek, do you like Roberts or South Fork better? Rode Charles City today for the first time and didn't care for that one too much at all. 6 inches of flour like dirt and zero flow. Plus the landing of the jumps are weird. Although it is open all week. Let me know what you think.

[@DerekHallman]

Charles City has some fun trails but I don't like the MX track either. South Fork and Robert's are both great but totally different. Robert's is my favorite - it has a laid back vibe, track is really long and fast paced weaving through the woods, big banked corners, and different sized jumps to practice on. It's hard pack most days though unless he preps it. South Fork is always perfectly prepped but the vibe is much more serious, lots of dudes doing 30 minute motos practicing for Lorettas. Are you close to both of them?

[@TheWakeupsheeple]

@@DerekHallman I’m in Mechanicsville Va so about an hour from both. I really like how flowy Robert’s is and like you said a good variety of everything. Good people there too. Haven’t been to South Fork yet, but I could tell from your vid it’s more of a serious racers track. Heading to western Colorado at the end of the month for a week of riding, you should come with. Got room in the truck and trailer! 🤣 I ride a black 22 450rx #741, maybe I’ll see you at Robert’s soon.

[@Jake-rp9cv]

It might just be the video but your bike sounds a little bit rattly. Id try going a bit richer up top with the Lectron just for peace of mind, or your crank/main bearings might be going out.

[@DerekHallman]

Yeah I've been hearing the noise and trying to figure out what it is the last few rides. What's weird is the bike is actually running rich and it sounds and feels better when I lean it out. Crossing my fingers it's not the crank bearings lol 🤞🏻

[@landonfuller2620]

Let's gooo love these vids

[@nikolozkobakhidze5979]

is ur 2 strokes or 4 and is 4 strokes good for jumps like that or 2 is better

[@m-h1269]

It is a 2 stroke, you can hear it. Also there really isn’t significant difference when it comes to jumping.

[@bobiivanchov9557]

Hi mate, I really enjoy your videos and I was inspired to start riding a dirt bike, can you tell me what you think is better: 125 2 stroke or 250 4 stroke. Continue to 1 million subscribers✌️🔥

[@thaiwaghorn2255]

depends on your confidence and what you want to do really but if your ballsy then the 125 is the go

[@joshe2420]

For me 125 is the way, but be aware of the powerband

[@DerekHallman]

Hey man thanks for watching the videos! I personally think a 250F is easier to ride but a 125 two stroke will teach you to be a better rider in the long run.
