You got me skiing after 12 years, dont tell me that youre gonna make me dust off my 2015 Merida and hit the trails. :D Love the vibes as always

Clearly the ski athleticism has transferred over to the mtb world, your skills are increasing every time I see a new video on the bike! Rule 1 of mtb progression is commitment, and clearly you got that pretty dialed. Not a lot of riders would be sending dirt merchant as early on as yourself, but you made it look easy! From here, you can dial in the basics like body position and braking to give yourself the most consistent and comfortable platform to keep sending like you have been. Rotate the elbows a little out to create a sort of push-up position over the bars but keep as much weight on your legs as possible. Hinge your hips and point your butt up by flexing your lower back to create a flat "table" with knees pointed gently outward to create the most stable ready position you can when riding technical terrain or jumpy sections. The goal is to let the bike do as much work as possible, while you just stand there and react to the movements + scan the trail ahead. Brake before the corners but let go through them, and apply gentle pressure in the compression to gain rocket ship like speed out. Means you pedal less and flow w the trail even more. These ofc aren't "make or break" techniques but they'll make anyone's riding safer and smoother. Very much looking forward to the biking videos in the future :)

Hey, I'm trying to work on my posture on the bike and pumping the compression more, when you say apply gentle pressure in the compression do you mean push down on the handlebars a bit?
@FinduroVR6 ай бұрын
@@ScrubsTheNewcomers Do most of the compression with your legs as opposed to your arms. Generally a good body position means as little weight on the hands and arms as possible so they don’t fatigue as quick. Your legs do most of the pressure control (pumping, “hovercrafting” the bike over roots & rocks, etc) and your arms are more for steering and reacting to the terrain as it comes to you. When I say apply gentle pressure though compressions, it’s a very subtle leg / ankle movement which make you and the bike feel “heavier” than normal. Any other questions let me know :)

It's so good to see someones mtb progression when you watch a lot of MTB utbers like skillswithpil etc because you don't really see in their footage how quickly they're going, or how big/difficult the features are. This makes it look how it actually is. Really difficult and sometimes really scary

Enduro/teail bike riders are so wwird to me. Its like reverse bike progression. People will be sending massive drops and jumps but have no technical bike skill lol, or endurance. Im like a fish out of water over a gap jump but can ride 40 foot skinnies all day. XC ftw
