Helping a Pro Rider to Master Scary Big Jumps in Squamish, BC

[@remymetailler]

Christina told me "I won't hit the last jump" and then, 10 minutes later.... To help me more videos like that you can support me by purchasing your bike parts on Jenson USA using this link: bit.ly/39xojyn

[@aidilrahim7612]

hi Remy may i know how your brake(hayes A4) doing?? could u review on them.. thanks

[@remymetailler]

Strong reliable durable powerful with great modulation. Love them!

[@christinachappetta7994]

Yup, this is true haha glad I did it but won't be running back there right away. THANKS so much for helping to level me up over many years now. Always a fun time.

[@GOLH]

Best coach ever. I feel it's rare to have someone so talented and with a clear progression system to actually safely show this kind of stuff. Bravo Remy and Major Kudos @Christina Chappetta

[@steezymtb5876]

@@christinachappetta7994 Well done, though. It was clearly visible that you were nervous for it, but overcame it beautifully. And kudos to Rémy as well, your way of calmly and analytically explaining the process almost made me feel like I could do the jump. :)

[@EZK4ME93]

Remy is the prime example of how to lift your homies up. Coaching, simple and easy explanation, full stoke. Full send. Props to y’all this was a sick video.

[@gabrielsegura1530]

With coaches or friends like that you start the day with a goal and end up going 3 times bigger, some people just gives you confidence

[@tommycooperfish]

@@gabrielsegura1530 Absolute best way to get better is ride with those slightly (not too much) above your own skill level. Better yet someone slightly better who wants to see others do well and has killed their fragile little egos a long time ago. Remy you da man, man :P

[@mistatopo8337]

Remy is a great teacher, but Christina is damn inspiring! Well done both of you!

[@christinachappetta7994]

Thank you! Luckily he knows what I'm capable of, some times more than me!

[@Kevin-ex2yb]

It is awesome to see such a top level rider as yourself be so humble, patient, and willing to guide others at their pace. It is a beautiful thing to see and not something everyone can do. Thanks for being a great human.

[@darrinkulyk9560]

TRUE PRO 😎

[@FlowFinderUSA]

You really have a great approach to your coaching technique. Verbal, but not overwhelming. Visual, but not intimidating. That was a quick 30 minutes. I usually don't enjoy watching videos this long. Well done 🤙

[@morgankelly5746]

Remy has single handedly convinced me to save for a spindrift, the bike looks AMAZING

[@33R3X]

Every bike he owns looks amazing! Maybe cuz of the paint job. His last year sponsor 'Cube' bikes also looks awesome🤗

[@rolux4853]

I was also thinking about changing from my mega 290 to a spindrift. But then I rode it for a few days and decided against it. The mega isn’t exactly what I call a super nimble climbing bike and the spindrift was even more sluggish. It felt of course super capable and ate every jump and every root, no matter how big. But it really is more of a Freeride bike that you can climb a little bit, than a enduro bike. It wasn’t for me, because I need a do it all everyday bike and that spindrift was just to much. So now I’m even thinking to go down in travel from my Nukeproof Mega to something like a Canyon Spectral or a Specialized Stumpjumper. Hell I even considered a Downcountry Bike like the Transition Spur, but I need to ride it first.

[@mauort6870]

@@rolux4853 i recommend you look at Revel from Colorado.. it is exactly as you describee the downhill properties of the propaon, but climbs super super well. I had one, but i made the mistake of ordering a demo that was pretty abused so I sent it back and then I got a gnarly deal on. Knolly warden carbon. The Revel is easily the best climber I've tried. Way better than my ibis mojo and those are famous for their climbing

[@morgankelly5746]

@@rolux4853 Yeah I totally see what u mean, I've a canyon torque and I like it a lot. from what I heard the torque is pretty sluggish as well. for me personally I only ride dh or enduro in Ireland, the most climbing I could do is like 40 minutes, I love big bikes and it suits where I ride. I like the sound of Propain cause they basically leave you how you want to build your bike. putting a dhx2, fox 38s and mullet for in and around 5k is class with a full carbon frame. And i think its cool that you can choose to go with a cheaper drivetrain and have money to go into other parts like suspension.

[@Tannervmtb]

Looks like propain is getting their money’s worth out of him then😂😂

Christina rocks - her attitude is unbeatable

[@christinachappetta7994]

Cheers for that!

[@dustfarter8137]

Remy. I love how analytical your approach is. I'd love to get coached by you to conquer some big, scary features. Big props to you Christina. That took some guts....and skills.

[@ShakaTechnique]

We need a shirt that says “control your speed, open your line” 😂

[@Seth_S-G]

I love it when you do these instructional/vlog videos! I have yet to try proper jumps, but I am determined to learn this summer. P.S I also like it how you don’t clickbait your video titles like so many other mtb KZbinrs

[@remymetailler]

Thank you! Good content does not need click bait but it's hard to compete when everything else is just lies and made up stories.

[@Seth_S-G]

@@remymetailler I agree with you that so many things online today are lies but if you keep up the honest good quality content, you will get a loyal fanbase of devoted MTBers that will not stop growing. I also have a question when I am learning to jump should I learn on my mountain bike that I always ride, or should I get a dirt jumper?

[@VentoRdrummeR]

@@remymetailler I agree Remy, and I appreciate the solid work you've been putting out for years. I think your loyal subscribers know that you never disappoint and always deliver quality content, no matter if it's short shred its or longer features such as this one. Plus, you always have super interesting guest riders on your videos. Keep it up man!

[@Phoretic]

@@Seth_S-G Learn to jump on your normal bike. Then, if you want a dirt jumper you can get one, once you know how to jump well. It's better to learn the skills on a regular mtb, where you can more easily apply the skills to jumps on trails because you're used to having a bike with geometry that probably isn't designed purely for getting airborn.

[@ervincornavaca9575]

To Christina 👏👏👏 Remy awesome coaching techniques 👍

[@timquain5341]

That was so rad. Lying on the couch right now with broken ribs and compression fracture of a vertebra. Was great to watch the detailed breakdown and consideration of each jump. I really love the way Remy treats every feature with respect. Something I became complacent with recently. Christina is awesome too. Love her energy. When Remy talked about her jump technique, I resonated with that so much. It's almost the different between being a passenger on your bike and driving it yourself. That bunny hop technique, no matter how subtle, is so important. It allows you to gain more height and therefore time in the air at the last second. Something you can't do if you are just a passenger. Plus it means you drop down onto your landing more giving you a bigger target for those sniper landings. More of these videos please Remy! Man I wish I could go through some jumps with you!

[@ShakaTechnique]

Hope u Heal up soon Bud that sounds gnarly 😬😬😬

[@ridesantacruzbikes]

I could watch ride videos of Christina and Rèmy all day.

[@dank3823]

Christina straight up nerves of steel. Really awesome to see the mental progress to break through! @Remy the ultimate teacher!

[@christinachappetta7994]

Thank you. Takes a lot of practice scaring/enlightening yourself to know when it's good to press send. Luckily, Remy's non-pushy attitude usually has me levelling up quicker than I would by myself.

I've been watching a lot of your Videos and i really much appreciate the way of how you analyse EVERYTHING you are doing. It gave me a much more intense view of what i am doing on the Bike, which parameters i can have an influence on before doing a feature and how i can minimize the risk, control fear and control as much of all parameters involved possible to get our sport as safe and controlled as possible. Keep doing what you are doing and the way you are giving advices, you are doing a great Job!

[@JustJake77]

This was a great video. Remy really broke everything down into digestible pieces. Christina was egar to listen and learn. Her confidence is infectious. Also her body stance on the bike is quite impressive. I kept noticing her positioning was really good. Well done on the sends.

Great video some nice tips on jumping, that was impressive by Christina and she made a good point about being in the zone and feeling it when taking on the jumps. Like you said Remy it’s best to walk away if not feeling it and to come back another day.
