UPDATE 6/24/24: I've heard the people and fixed up the audio as best as I could and reuploaded the video here • How to Dig Bench Cuts ...
If you like to read then visit www.imba.com/r... for all the juicy details on trail building. I barely scratch the surface of trail building in this video.
In this video I go over the 3 most common cuts that I use to make the tread for my trails in the jungle. Digging a trail takes some imagination and a bit of forethought. It's hard work and digging it wrong will wreck your trail & lead to erosion... so better make sure you do it right the first time.
The full bench cut is the most practical type of tread dug out of hillsides for trails and hopefully by the end of the video you'll understand why. As always, your slope, environment, and soil composition will determine which style will be best suited for you.
I filmed this in one afternoon and it took me two days to recoup and rehydrate. The jungle sure is gnarly. Yes, there's a typo in the video. I was tired when I was editing and didn't catch it (there's no spell check in my video editor).
Thanks for watching! Now go join your local mountain bike club and tell them Adam sent ya.
