What’s the technique to jumps on a bike? Do you pull the handle bars up, jump on the pedals or nothing really? 🔥🔥💵

@@TyDesignerd I’m the worst jumper. Body positioning needs to be straight up and down while pulling and the bars to suction your feet against the pedal. I just end up getting bucked most the time haha. I’m getting better tho!

@@shredian does a great job describing what he is doing to jump. I think, however, this technique is ultimately why you see him case (land slightly short) on the jumps when the guy in front of him is clearing them cleanly. The Loam Ranger put out a video about 2 years ago where he explains more proper technique in terms of what it actually feels like when you are riding, and that video is the best explanation I've seen on jump technique. Shredian - keep on shredding! Didn't mean this as a negative commentary. Really enjoyed the video and the sneak peak of the new trail. Hoping to get to ride it myself this weekend.

@@zajones0620 yup still figuring it out. I’ve never done jumps this size before so was a lil scared haha
