How to Build 3 Cheap and Easy Backyard Bike Park Features

[@SharkFrenzy]

Ooof 😅 he cased that- 2:10 ...Thx for the help

[@blameitonben]

A little drop, or set of progressive drops is great for helping kids/progressing riders feel out different techniques for dropping at different heights. 6 inches, 12 inches, 18 inches, up to 2 feet.

[@abrahammitchell515]

Instablaster

[@fradland2784]

2 feet is maybe a tad much

[@YBMTB]

if you have any elevation in your yard, drops are also very easy, just find a spot with a mellow slope, then dig dirt from the landing onto where you want the actual drop... Pack it down and you're done!

There's a little hill in my yard but the top is by the road and the bottom goes to a fire pit.

[@owenchabot]

Wow so cool, looks so sick.

[@GurthBrooks619]

All I know is I learned how to build stuff and wished my dad rode a bike with me as a kid. This is cool

[@goat_horde]

Same thing with building a car lol.. but we learned so now we can become better men

[@EditF1_]

I have been looking for a video like this for a long time so thank you!

[@casq882]

We just move to SC and our house has a big wooded and dirt backyard with fence around but I did not have idea of what to build, we just have some cheap bikes and the dream to start something. Thank you for your video it was very helpful.

[@singletracks]

Glad you found it helpful, keep us posted on your progress!

[@LurkingInTheSofa]

I have an acre and I want to make the most of the space I've got, because it's not always easy for me to get out when I want to ride. This helps a lot, thanks!

[@dontaskwhyproductions5434]

Looks awesome and some good tips. Maybe try some marine grade plywood as well as painting it. Looking to get more into biking and this videos got me lookin forward to seeing what I can come up with

[@kylescott9777]

Sweet trails! Thanks for the building tips

[@clints9316]

Start out with a bunch of tabletop jumps there simple and easy instead of the those kicker and gap jumps. There a perfect beginner jump and u can’t case it so try it out especially fro the little kids they would love it.

[@donovan8515]

Sick shredder! 2:09

Mega cased the jump tho

[@lucasprunt7960]

It’s hardly a case if the jump is like 10 cm long 🤣 🤣

How to practice skinny’s: ride on curbs

[@sammymiller6740]

What if you have a smaller yard?

[@singletracks]

I'd focus on lower speed features like skinnies, log stacks, and big rocks if you can find some. An adjustable, portable ramp could work well in a small yard too.

[@sammymiller6740]

@@singletracks Thanks so much for replying!

[@RobertKuhns-yw8tp]

Yo, just a little suggestion, teach the kid how to jump the kicker to land it on the other side of the Jump. This is from an experienced mountain biker!

[@singletracks]

Thank you experienced mountain biker! :)

[@swktg47]

Oof. As a old skateboarder turned mountain biker, I could have warned you that plywood ramps and weather do not mix well at all. Paint, polyurethane, even tarps, you name it, it won't protect against extended rainy or winter weather. Unless you live in California or the desert southwest or something, your only real option is skatelite or ramp armor or something like that, and those are pretty darned expensive. NOT as expensive as resurfacing a 12' wide mini half pipe every year though. Ask me how I know.

[@singletracks]

Haha yeah, I bet that's a big problem on huge ramps! I ended up taking the plywood off and fortunately the 2x4 supports are spaced close enough that it works fine without the plywood cover. Probably wouldn't work for skate wheels tho LOL.

[@johnnybreshears4239]

You could make a teeter totter

[@singletracks]

Great idea! We built one years ago but maybe it's time to do another... www.singletracks.com/progression/mountain-bike-teeter-totter-assembly/

[@rickastley6256]

I love the ideo of building stuff in my backyard but almost none has the space to do this

[@wyatt5532]

I wouldn't ride that wood jump...

[@kanedemeo2970]

I am a profesanal rider so my kicker would be 6ft high(•‿•)

[@Sam-cj3wv]

Idk if that is satire but I laughed either way

[@maxveitch4925]

For the wooden kicker you should have used planks as the riding surface

[@singletracks]

Agreed. I think I mentioned that in the video...

[@freddiea8895]

Kick ass

[@spicymig4545]

Who else is looking in the comments to see if they actually work?

[@Mikesonbikes]

great video. Check out the trail i built in my yard!

[@charlottesmom]

I wish I could do this but my husband would murder me if I dug up any of the grass in our acre and a half...I can ride on the grass just not dig it up.

[@singletracks]

Ride the same path thru the grass enough times and you won't need to dig it up for a trail!

[@chriscartwright6424]

32second that burm is usless cus you are not even going fast

[@edt5276]

Nice video. Skip the first minute which is just the all too typical "Let's waste the 1st minute telling people what they've already read in video title."

@@chriscartwright6424 To be clear, you are trash talking a 7-year-old kid. I mean I guess you've earned the right now that you're 13 and a pro mountain biker, but still not a good look.
