Trail Sculpture - building dirt jumps by hand - timelapse. Strangely satisfying

[@alfiebyers2555]

Your so lucky with the dirt that you have

[@Chris-gj3hh]

Alfie Byers yeah it’s like it even dirt it’s sand

[@Chris-gj3hh]

Sorry I just had a stroke what I meant to say was the dirt they have is sand I think

[@justkeepdigging1956]

It’s about 80% sand- it varies. One corner is pure sand and the other is quite good- we move stuff around but yeah, it’s sandier than we’d like but we just make the most of what we have 👍🏼

[@mathewfielding6860]

NR8 Productions you should try building with ultra fine grain sand like u would find at the beach all we have is solid clay and beach sand near us id love your sand also sick vid

[@GFEBMX]

@@justkeepdigging1956 probably better than all the boulders rocks and roots at our jumps we have to sieve our top layers for hours

[@finnzzilla]

This is some serious hard work. I have backyard trails of my own, and it comes to show how much effort it takes to create them. I’m pretty sure that if it were only one person working on this... it would take years👍

[@justkeepdigging1956]

It's taken us years as a group! Haha!

[@867diesel]

man that reminds me of growing up . all i did was make dirt jumps in the woods for my bmx bike and sometimes my friends would help . but when it was all done . they all would say that i built the most badass track . now im 34 and race quads and im still building trails and jumps by my self with a shovel and a pair of pruners lol . we get old if we stop playing done ever stop playing

Super awesome content!!

[@insanewayne75]

Absolutely love this video and the quality of the trails. I’m 45 and way out of shape to ride trails “at the moment”

[@brianfarrow3436]

You guys are awesome! This video was indeed strangely satisfying. The only thing that could make it better would be seeing them ridden at the end.

[@justkeepdigging1956]

Got you covered buddy- check out my other vids to see them being ridden later in the year. A lot of this digging is done during winter so it doesn’t get ridden for a while. :)

[@Jerseymulisha21]

Unbelievable..I mean these trail are beyond corner policed..these are straight art..and id love to roast them I know that..amazing job fellas 🤙🤙🤙 SO SICK 🤘

[@trinapywell6869]

We spend hours just digging not even getting a full shovel of dirt you guys are very lucky

[@marcconnor8740]

Then find a new spot with some better dirt. If you knew the dirt was shit why would you start digging there in the first place

[@oskarromberg9790]

Nooooooo

[@jasonwong6477]

No

[@firemusic82]

Dude I can totally understand what you mean. When you're working on trails solo, progress seems slow going. You're doing kick ass work though my friend! The soil you're using looks like sand to me. I'm from the Northeast US, and the soil around here is almost black. You can't stick a shovel into the ground around here and NOT hit 20 huge rocks. Progress is extremely slow over here. Dude, that little set of stairs you guys built is sick. I love those little details at trails. Keep digging my friend!

[@cf6174]

I see a lot of channels with comments saying something along the lines of “you deserve more subs,” but this is one of the first that I’ve ever agreed with completely. The shots are so professional and the production quality is so great that it is truly mind-blowing that you haven’t blown up yet. +1 subscriber from me

Can I please buy some of that dirt 😭 Where I live the dirt is literally clay and LOTS of rocks and building jumps is so hard. The vid is great!

[@rustyshackleford9632]

Man that dirt is epic, I live in the desert and it takes 20-30min of swinging a pickaxe just to get 1 wheelbarrow full of rocky dry soil. You guys look like you’re building with perfectly moist beach sand.

[@justkeepdigging1956]

Thanks dude - Keep slinging that pick buddy - you know it will be worth it :)

[@robbe_mtb7721]

I love your vidéos

[@wolverinebear5357]

Have you ever seen someone make a moss slurry to plant moss, yogurt blended up with a patch of moss, turns into liquidy gross lookin stuff but whereever you put paint it spray it pour it moss will grow, helps keep jumps moist. Your atrwork looks amazing them backsides would look dope fully greened in.

[@jessebeckham2418]

That dirt is soo nice I hate my canyon dirt

[@tarquinpoole9477]

pretty sandy but it packs so mint

[@justkeepdigging1956]

Thanks dude! Yeah definitely sandier than we'd like! Lucky to have a few patches of better stuff but nowhere near enough! We don't claim to have perfect dirt or be the best builders, we just enjoy making the best of what we have.

[@tamsheikh]

Just what I needed at 3am

[@utah-mtnbkr800]

You literally need to make multiple videos of all of this amazing hard work, talk about the jumps more, you could’ve made a good quality vid out of just the steps and landing.

[@justkeepdigging1956]

Hello dude- You're right- but at the time that work was done I wasn't making youtube videos. I made just one 10 minute video a year to show what we did each winter for a bike website (pinkbike.com). In future I'll be taking more time to explain what is actually going on! Thanks buddy!

I've definitely built stuff that looks great but doesn't quite work out as I hoped- one of the berms in this video is gone already... but when you get it right it's awesome. The final section of the video works so good and people are going to the moon. You win some you lose some- just got to be willing to admit if it doesn't work and change it.

[@wind8932]

Yes Matt Jones did

[@DrakoMlodyMalfoy]

@NR8 Productions what is your sand???? tell me about it

[@xdjjdookie8087]

do you get dirt shipped in or do you mix your own dirt coz it just looks so smooth and doesn't fit in with the surrounding or you just got good dirt

[@justkeepdigging1956]

We're just lucky to have a few deeper and wetter areas where the dirt is much more like actual dirt rather than pure sand. We filter the good stuff out and spread it as far as we can!

I am also building some sizable dirt jumps, and i come accross the issue when i am using my shovel to pack in the dirt, it sticks to the shovel. how do you pack the dirt in with the shovel without dirt sticking?

[@nwoi4803]

Look at Matt Jones biulding series, he tells how

[@justkeepdigging1956]

Most of the time it comes down to the finish on the shovel- if it’s new it won’t slide on the surface. You need a shovel which is super smooth and then slide as you slap rather than just patting straight down. Hope that helps dude.
