A lot of people say "stand up" or "ride taller" but the rationalization explaining how being tall gives you more space to recover from mistakes was a new way of thinking of it, and that's pretty cool.

[@michaelk.5706]

And plus you are less fatigue. I did notice that after riding a day in the bikepark. The next day could hardly move my legs because I rode squatted all day long. And I did that because I was told to get in the Attack Position as soon as I am on the trail...so the this was the best advice for me

[@iorch82]

I feel that for us super tall guys it doesn't work that well.. we already have a center of gravity high enough

[@simonwenzowski9148]

@@iorch82 That's an issue of bike setup then. Your bars should be high enough to facilitate this riding position.

[@dougr550]

Damn it, **That moment when you realize you're still a joey. I've become a half way decent rider in the last few years and was watching this thinking, I don't think I bend at the legs and crouch like that...do I? Got up to the trail today and tried standing more upright and was like f**k I really do normally bend my legs like that. Used a more upright posture today and I was actually struggling to cope with how quick the trail was coming at me. Forget better in a day, better in a second. I think I'm going to have to raise my stem by just a few mm but I was really shocked by the fact that I was instantly able to ride way faster. Thank you so much for making videos like this Remy! You're literally changing peoples lives!

[@Alanvictoryoung]

I’m loving your content Remy! I have been trying to adopt your tall fairly straight leg neutral position for a year now and I still find I tend to sit down. I cant believe my eyes when you corner so fast even is flat corners up so high. I have noticed I am not ready to double features that come up fast when riding at my 90% pace because I’m not at neutral and already too low to compress the bike forcefully. Your video has inspired me to take the time to regularly be critical of my riding to keep working on mistakes and progressing. Thank you!

[@andypirkey6071]

Watched the video, went for a ride, stayed tall and neutral, amazing difference. Thank you, please do more of these!

[@michaeledwards5241]

Awesome Rémy. Can’t understand why people give videos like this the thumbs down, they can’t be riders or they would understand.

[@ZeeFrankensteel]

It's because it's long and they want a 5 minute lesson, where all the fine tuning bits will be missed. This was a real lesson, like being there!

[@riddimfernandez5139]

Great video Remy! As a bikepark coach myself I learnt a lot to apply to my own riding, which I can pass on. Thank you.

[@magnate2372]

I think the best tip was one that wasn’t talked about much. Which was being in the mindset of critiquing yourself so you can learn from your mistakes. Also, sessioning is more helpful for learning because you can break down what you need to do into small increments. Thanks for the wealth of knowledge Rémy!

[@jeffwy5164]

It is a rare athlete who can perform at the elite level and coach at the elite level. In part because they are two different skills but also because many elite athletes learned too naturally to be able to relate to the less naturally skilled. Remy is a prodigy at both riding and coaching. I know he is quite celebrated but I’m still going to say he is crazy underrated.

[@raggly1960]

Rémy more of these please - I am sure I will watch this one hundreds of times. Thanks for the exceptional teaching.

[@toddeasterbrook8936]

As much as I love watching you shred gnarly lines with pros, this was super beneficial to me as a new rider. Would love to see more content like this! I definitely need to ride taller and remember to drop my outside foot!

[@nimpoc]

Absolutely love the methodical approach to skill building, especially the concept of riding slow to be fast. Brake control buys you time to make decisions, and instills confidence that ‘it’s not an emergency’. One significant enhancement to your videos would be slow motion shots to emphasize the difference between you and your student. Stance, cornering position, eye gaze, etc. would be much easier to see at a slower / longer time scale. The KZbin controls to slow the video 0.25x don’t really have the same effect as 240FPS. Thank you for all you share with the community, and keep killing it!!!

[@ballylama593]

This is a great video. I enjoy having the more "average" rider in these videos as it becomes more relatable since there's no way I will ever ride like or as fast as you do. The cornering tips are useful and what I am trying to improve most.

[@justsayin3600]

I'm not even 10 minutes in and Remy just solved my bad stance/squat habit. This is probably why I feel like I'm going over the bars. Remy!!!! Edit: Just watched the whole thing. Man Remy as long as I've been riding I never worked on my outside leg down ( like skiing) to corner. Makes complete sense now. Remy!!!

[@kbalaz]

I am still riding a full rigid bike from 1990 (GT Karakoram K2). For the most part I can keep up to my friends where we ride, biggest thing I have learned most of the time is body positioning is so key when riding. I love all your videos Rémy, very exciting stuff, can almost feel like I am riding those trails as well. Cheers

[@ivunag]

This is a brilliant video Remy. Thank you for all the practical tips. I felt the best tip for me was the understanding that lowering my heels actually enables me to be more spread when there is a steep decent and allows me to have a higher position while staying low.

[@markonikolic1386]

The standing tall really hit me. I think I am guilty of being too low. I was thinking about that the whole way trough the video and it made perfect sense. Everything they are riding looks much easier when you have more room to maneuver the bike around. Also that might be a reason why rear wheel lifts and bunny hops weren't going as planned for me. Can't wait to try this tomorrow! Awesome video! Keep up the good work!

[@BGraves]

Yes! Ride as if you don't have a chain. When there's a compression or a string of roots or rocks the best way to carry the speed is to lighten your weight on the entire bike. I actually learned to focus more on flow because I lost a chain at the beginning of a 5-mile downhill trail.

[@RyleZor]

This is one of the only mountain bike tips video that actually sounds helpful. Super well explained and clearly shown results.

[@EmzNZ]

So much value in this video Remy!! Please do more content like this of helping people out on single black trails, us normal humans have heaps to learn off you when the trail difficulty and challenges is something we can relate to. I'm definitely guilty of riding permanently in a defensive attack position. Since watching this I've been conscious to allow myself to stand up taller and relax a bit more for most of the trail, it's made a big positive difference to how my ride feels. Also realised I've been weighing the wrong side when riding off camber, which explains a lot haha. It felt natural to want to keep weight on the higher side, but logically can see why the opposite is what prevents the bike sliding out from under you. Would also love to hear your thoughts on learning to trust your bike - you're probably one of only a few who truly push their bikes to their limits, but for most of us our bikes are far more capable than we are. Since watching your videos, I've been learning to trust my bike a lot more with things like grip (including becoming ok with some natural sliding) and its ability to roll over the rough stuff. Have found it's a huge piece of mindset when starting to progress your riding as a relative newbie to the sport and stepping up to tackling black features. Thanks again, loving your videos!

[@gregoryf9299]

Another fantastic vid! You’d be a top-shelf coach - funny, expert advice, keen observations, simple talk. More of these vids would be awesome!

[@debbie6986]

"If you are in the ready position the entire time, that defeats the purpose of being ready"... this concept I found very contradictory but the more I think about the idea of standing tall, less fatigue, neutral position makes sense. I will try this next time I am out in the trails or the park. I should also look at purchasing a shock pump and experiment with pressure. I get the feeling mine is too low and bottoms out on hard compressions, I've seen it in videos, but I struggle knowing what to do.

[@13thbornpr]

Wow. Ive been riding for 15 years and that first lesson blew my mind. Ive never thaught of it that way. Now i'll be making sure to stand tall on the bike. Thanks Remy

[@stratdax4028]

Good tip about trying to not pedal between corners. I definitely do that and use it as a way to just avoid getting smoother at corners. Things are hitting home.

[@jeffwatson9890]

Being 6'3" on an XL bike riding tall seems counter intuitive to me. I always felt like I should ride low to keep my center of gravity down. Have the ride tall concept a go this morning and damned if I didn't feel more confident and in control. In my local trails there's a sharp, flat right hand corner at the bottom of a moderate descent. Today was the first time I've ever ridden it without braking. I think riding taller let me push more weight into my tires as I loaded the bike through the corner then sprung me out of the corner as I stood back up and unloaded the suspension on the exit. I carried more speed through the S turn that follows and was able to send the jump after that without pedaling into it. Good tips and I can't wait to further dig into this technique.

[@JM-zs5hp]

I watched this last night and put the body position tips to use on my morning ride. It’s by far the best I have ever ridden the trail I ride 4 times every week.

@@siteofdaniel exactly, the RAD of my bikes (M) is 70mm and 100mm too big for my size. sure, "kid's bike" was an intended exaggeration, but actually i just tried to find a modern bike that fits my RAD and i can't (even size S, no spacers, 35mm stem, 0mm rise)! i am average height with average proportions, between M and L with most brands. either i am totally misunderstanding something here or RAD is totally unrealistic by today's standars. plus: my bikes feel just about right, the bigger one even better. he sais sam hill fits his bike by measuring grips to bottom bracket. sam hill is exact my size, there are a lot of bike checks of his bikes around and there is no way those bikes are anywhere near his RAD. McCormacks riding tips are allright, but that fact that he always has to come up with RAD triggers me, i think there is more to it than a simple formula.

[@siteofdaniel]

@@mojo3398 I haven't done my RAD tbh but I have done the lying on my back thing. And it seems my bike is a good fit on the RAD+ of the spectrum. I'm 181 and my bike is a 18.5in or M/L Trek Slash. But other than that, Joy of bike and Lee has taught me so much about cornering, hopping and jumping I cannot recommend enough.

[@simonwinterburn595]

Pretty much the first tip of standing up taller I think will make the biggest difference for me. Having the 'ready position drilled into me for so long, but being lower above the bike has probably limited my progression in the simplest way. Makes more sense to stand up taller when not setting up or riding a feature that needs a different weight distribution. Looking forward to practicing that tomorrow

Really great stuff! Things I will remember from this lesson are standing tall (rather than always in crouch) to have better ability to make corrections and less fatigue, trying to pick line with fewer compressions is faster, I know to break before turns,,, but breaking early before attacking a feature and then releasing the break before the feature thus allowing the shock to return to full extension so the shock can handle the feature not limited by a partially pre-compressed shock was super helpful! Great info as always! I am trying to find those TIME Speciale pedals!

This was so great Remy! More instructional videos please 🙏 how about a tutorial on where to look? I'm constantly looking too close in front or fixated on where I don't want to go lol!

[@jeremyprovonsil7886]

You answered your own question! If you’re looking too close (directly) or “target fixating” the only thing left is what? Look where you want to go! There is obviously a lot more to the equation (momentum, technique, body position, balls, equipment, conditions, etc...)We use this in motorcycle riding, but if you fixate on a target/look too close in front you will hit the bullseye 99% of the time. Conversely, if you look where you want to go your body will follow and it absolutely works. I use it on my motorcycle every ride, all the time and also while MTB. Same technique adapted for pedal power!

[@NONO-hz4vo]

I love watching these. I do feel like at some point it gets to be where I start following really good riders I start to think the progression starts to come with risk. We have some good drops and gaps that I am 99% sure I can hit, but carrying the speed and then being sure of the control on the landing to make the turns bring a level of risk that moves you from crashes that need some dirt rubbed on it to this is probably a walk back and an ambulance ride. On dirt bikes this comes a lot sooner.

[@Slinkylinky179]

Great tips. Standing tall seems to be the big one that I don't do at all. I tend to squat and get over the front. Was at the bike park last weekend and was sore for 3 days. I thought maybe everyone is just way stronger than me, but I'm thinking if I stand taller like you said, my legs will be less tired and I'll ride smoother. I think it's both a misunderstanding of "aggressive attack position" you hear about and also I have long legs as compared to my torso and I think I can get a little freaked out when my center of gravity feels like it's way up in the air. I'm a believer after seeing what your neighbor did with his rear wheel immediately after trying it though.

[@mrsmartypants_1]

Best tip? A tall attack position. So many folks repeat the standard “chin over stem” line which then causes most folks to get low over their bike.

I really like this video format I've watched this one at least a couple of times as there is so much in here to unpack and use on the trail. Usually a lot of youtube videos just get straight to what they want to communicate and then done but having things explained in a high level of detail and then applied to different situations really helps to cement the concept. I would like to see this level of detail applied to a jumps and drops video such as how to use your legs and arms and why. There is a lot of psychology in riding at this level and a lot of youtube videos again just focus on the mechanics of learning body position but that is only half the equalisation. Your videos do focus on the psychology and I really like that also and if you can keep going further into that would be great especially the massive features you ride which are epic and feel totally outside of anything I could ever ride.
