Hands down, this series is the best explainer I’ve found on the elements of how-to-ride-good. The visuals are clear, the script is perfect, Ben’s presentation is bang on. No distractions or confusing bits, no weird omissions. Endorse.

For those interested in the physics behind why pumping works it’s the law of “angular momentum”. Velocity increases when mass moves to the central focus of a curve. Put more simply, the riding technique is “go in small, come out tall” when navigating any curve (up, down or around). I’ve done this instinctively for years as a bowl skateboarder but only recently discovered the physics behind why it works. I’m learning to hit the trails on bikes and your videos are a great help, Ben. 👍

This was my favourite of the series so far. Pumping to get cornering traction is something that I was sometimes managing to do intuitively but not really understanding it. Some corners just felt like I could cut them super sharp and still come flying out. Now that I know what's going on I find I'm doing it a lot more, and it feels great.

Best tutorial on pumping that I have seen. Pumping never made sense to me until now. Also, I feel vindicated about my self-taught cornering technique that is the same as explained in this video, especially in regard to the forward-to-back weight shift. Until now, I had not heard anybody recommend it. In fact, some say it is poor technique. Screw them - it works and it is FUN.

This is incredible, can't wait to get back onto the trails and give this a proper try. My pumping has been improving but feels so inconsistent applied on the trails. I am definitely guilty of using too much arm and pumping with my legs too early. Pumping the transition makes so much sense.

You're killing it with this series ben! So many other videos are sorta wishy-washy about the physics. However, I wish there there slightly more diagrams and/or overlays. There are lots of words and descriptions that are not completely reinforced visually. A subtle knee angle change could be called out with a couple lines, over-layed at the knee with riding footage, with a graph perhaps to show/prove exactly *when* the legs are extended to create that pump, in addition to the verbal description. Still absolutely the best video series about the technical aspects of riding a bike! Something along the lines of the masterful plot of the center of mass of the rider when pumping/absorbing on the trail.

13:24 interesting bit on where the transition actually is in a turn. On rollers or on a pump track it's sortof "obvious", but on a berm it doesn't always make sense where the transition is. Because the thing is on its side. Thanks Ben and PB, can't wait to try this out!

Hey Ben Super tutorial videos for us oldies. I am on the trails what I would like to see is if your learning a new trail you don’t know where your actually going so you are trying to ride with some pace on a green trail (Beginner trail) which is where there are no real drops just lots of rocks and tree roots bouncing you all over the place how do you know where and when to pump while you have to pedal not coast on a trail. ? It does not mean climb it’s lots of bouncing about on rock and root infested crests. Do you have any videos on pedalling techniques on how to get through these sort of trails. We’re I ride is lots of pee gravel rocks and tree roots. Advice if and when you get time would be appreciated. Other then that great tutorials even if it can be overwhelming keep this great content coming 👍
