So far the best video I've watched to teach how to do switchback
This is by far the most helpful video I've ever watched about how to corner. You two do an incredible job of explaining the physics and reasons for body positions. It doesn't come naturally to me so this has really helped me improve my cornering.
Hi Vic and Wes, I have watched all your videos and very liked your teaching mode. Can you please teach how to do a bunny hop for a beginner, thanks!
@@felesfan thanks for your message! We will start making videos again soon and will certainly make one on bunny hops!
@@vicwesmtb I’m very excited and thank you for your swift response. Hope to see your new videos soon😘
Awesome tutorial! I love all your videos. I’m from Santa Cruz, California. South Africa is so amazing. I wish I had done some mountain biking while I was there, you make it look so cool. Thank you 🙏
@@MTNMAX88 thanks for the message! It’s been a while since we made any videos .i have just (Wes) immigrated to the USA (Connecticut) and Vic will hopefully join me soon (immigration complexities). But soon as im settled I will start with a new series of videos, should be up and running by the spring!! In the meantime you can keep in touch by visiting my website (masteringmtbskills.com). Take care and chat soon! Wes 💪😎
Great instructions, such a shame you’ve not posted for a year. We need more from you guys :(
Ignore everything else you’ve seen about shifting back, or manual etc THIS IS HOW YOU DO IT! Great tutorial guys.
Great video, what Is the circle cone radius dimensiones for práctice ?
@@EnriqueCarrizoCortés thanks for the message! Start with 8-10 ft then see how much smaller you can go. The smaller circle is around 6 ft radius, but once you get it super dialed on can go even smaller. Hope this helps! Cheers!! Wes 👊😎
So glad to have found you! Must practice this.
Great tutorials and easy to follow, now hitting jumps I’ve been riding around for years 👍
Keeep those videos goinggg❤❤❤
❤❤❤
Fantastic video
Probably the best video I have seen about riding switch backs. You both do an excellent job of breaking it down to smaller size bites. You earned a sub.
This is one of the better videos for riding switchbacks I've seen. Good job 👍
You not loosing alot energy bunny hopping off a jump? Seems to be the thing now not loosing the energy from hopping in videos
Hi there, thanks for the comment! We don’t bunny hop at all when jumping so not losing any energy. We don’t bunny hop off a jump, we load and then unweight (explode) and lean slightly forwards with the bike… this ensures you keep momentum without changing the trajectory off of the takeoff and lip. This is completely different to bunny hopping. Hope this helps! Cheers 🤙
Thank you , still landing hard on my Rear wheel. 😅
Heya guys this is thee best video..am off to go do some loose rock trails...touching the passion and drive you guys display..many thanks❤❤❤
Im new to Mtn Biking and I struggle with corners. We arrived in Bella Vista in Arkansas to ride and my new struggle is Perfect Berms and here they are sharp turn berms. Tomorrow I will use your technique and circle back. TY both so much.
Would love to see this video 'amended' to show how to hit drops when clipped in...
Good Evening, Vic and Wes, thank you for the video. Can you tell us the location you were filming the drops, we looking for a place to practice in Gauteng. Weve been to a few bike parks but havent come across a place like this yet😢
We miss you here in Jhb 😢
so let me get this straight, i load and explode with my feet , very little to no input from my hands ?
Hiya awfully average, when it comes to unweighting the bike, loading is mostly through your feet, your hands just hold the front wheel up (but not by pulling it up). Don’t pull the front of the bike up towards yourself, the front of the bike is relatively heavy and you will most likely only pull yourself forwards (into a dangerous position), instead of allowing the front of the bike to get light and stay up. Once you start dropping with a lot more speed (high speed) then loading becomes almost negligible, as the speed you carry allows the rear of the bike to clear the lip without the front wheel dropping and causing a “buck” and OTB. In this scenario you can push the front of the bike forwards with your hands to meet the angle of the landing, but this is an advanced manipulation. I hope this helps . Cheers 👊
@@vicwesmtb thank you so much ! With your explanation I can see the spectrum of techniques !
One of the best jumping tutorials on youtube! I loved your vidfeo and your channel keep it up!
Awesome video. Very easy to understand. Thank you. Bloemendal is lekker😊
Smooth NOT fast was the most important advice. Because smooth = fast. It’s all technique.
Please make more videos of your mtb tutorials, very helpful.
Now i know,thanks...
Will done subscribe ma'am sir!!
yehey!
Fantastic video guys, well done!!! 👏
Best beginner's cornering video ever 😊
friendly recommendation, get a lavalier mic✌
Great video
Awesome video. Please make more. Can you make a video about body position focusing on hinging? I saw another coach recently mentioning that we should not hinge. Rather we need to squat
Great video. Can you do one on steep roll down with semi loose dirt about an 8 footer high. Thanks! Want to challenge this in my neighborhood.
THANKS U GUYS!! JUst got back from the trails. 58 years old, couldn't jump worth a crap. That thing you showed with pointing your chin forward, made everything click. I thought about ski jumpers, what do they do they get over the ski's. So yea man, I felt the back tire in the air!!! Weeeeeeeeeee!
Hi Dennis. Thanks so much for the feedback! We are so super stoked for you! Well done on getting some air 💪😁. It is really great for us as coaches to hear that our advice helps. Take care and ride on 👊😎 - Vic & Wes
Very helpful good job!!!
This was the first of your tutorials I found and I'm really impressed! Your discussion of technique was exactly what I was taught at a recent clinic, but you include more drills than they did, which should be super helpful. I see it's been four months since you published this so I really hope you do more!
Thanks for the awesome feedback!! We are working on the next video and hope to be able to make them on a more regular basis… life is hectic though and making the time is the biggest challenge. But no worries - we will prevail and will soon put another tutorial out. Your words of encouragement mean the world to us . Thank you 👊😁
Very helpful! Thanks😊
nice! 👍
I put off doing a 3ft drop of 1.5 years because it got tin my head and for whatever reason I could not visualize myself doing it. Maybe because it was off a concrete slab...even though there is a series of drops just before it off rocks that I had no issue with, even one that was the same size or maybe even a little bigger. Once I finally committed to doing it, it was once of the easiest drops I had ever done.
Great stuff - doing my first double jumps, drops at age 63 - been MTB xcountry for years though
Awesome tips. Thanks muchly
How to conquer fear .. yell "YOLO" really loud and then go (:
Nice video I’ didn’t know I was doing it all wrong But when you said more strength in our legs than arms I realised where I’ve been going wrong 👍
Great video! If you look at the tree you will go into the tree 😂 so true!
my husband tells me all the time !~!!
