as a 64 year old newish to MTb-ing I totally understand these mental blocks we get, great to see you progress. you don't get this when road riding. thank you
If you’re serious about getting better, spend the time and money working with Anneke. I’ve had 5 lessons with her. I went from fear and being timid on my bike to clearing BIG jumps and this past week I did the biggest drop in Bentonville, “Drop the Hammer”. She walked me through every stage. Being 72 to stay young and fit takes, commitment. You got this.👍
Was just there last weekend. Couldn't get myself to commit to any of that libe except for the drop even though I know I'm capable of clearing all of it. Fear gets the best of me!
So refreshing to see women coaching women. It sounds so different. Mental blocks are a real thing! Working on getting bunny hop, manual and wheelie. Love to see some videos on these. Look forward to many more!
This is making me want to go out and work on a double that's been on my mind for a couple of years. It's always intimidated me as it's midway down a black jump line. I can hit everything except that one.
Glad to hear that it's a good thing to case a jump multiple times before you start sending it. I thought it was a bad habit of mine as I have some friends who instantly clear or even overshoot things where as I always almost deliberately case the shit out of everything. Then once I know I can survive that, I start clearing stuff.
Great Vid Anneke! The two of you work well together! Can’t wait for more collaborations. As you know I have many fears after my accident, but it keeps getting better and I’m riding more, some of which I give you credit for because of your sessions and helping me understand the correct way to do certain skills.
Its such a great feeling to feel that pulse if speed when you clear and hit the downslope. Nice to also see ladies having fun on mountain bikes. My most difficult barrier to overcome is having enough confidence to clear a double. I got in over my head in Angel fire and crashed on an upslope fracturing my wrist. Your trails look incredibly well built and open compared to these narrow rock strewn trails in Austin. I hope to visit soon
Love this video of Jess the Maker progression thru the jump refresher and getting the mojo back, great flow and information that I can use for myself and my wife.
Great video @ annekebeerten 👍, i think your method is invaluable to guys as well as girls especially the slow progression and especially for someone like me whos 55 years young & struggles to keep the 18 year old contained and not just send things blind lol 😝 I mean this literally as im short sighted & should wear glasses and cant read the warning ‼️ signs and dont know if its a drop or jump coming up , so quite often just send it & hope for the best lol 😂. Thanks again from the awsome video & keep em coming 😎🤘
I really like your coaching style. I'd totally watch more videos like this. Especially if they were for riders who have a little bit less skill and confidence than she did. (She's already clearing 6m+ tables)
Nice! I really like, and relate, with that comment that it is better to jump and case rather than brake and switch off to the side of the jump as every time that happens the jump becomes bigger in your head. Cheers
The speed difference from the case landing to the speed clearing looked almost double. I case every jump, looks like I need to start with a faster approach.
Your feeling of intimidation is not unique to women. I am a male and I am not sending jumps like that. It is intimidating for ANYONE who is not at a certain level to practice and risk looking dumb in front of more seasoned riders.

I chicken on 3&4th.. cleared 1&2 only… I just need commitment I guess! Good vid Anneke🤘
You’ve got this! The rest of that line jumps really good and nice.
Grab a couple of sessions with Anneke that will give you the confidence no worries

Always helps to have a tow in to know the right speed for a jump. Good tips on the preload.

I put this to work at the local skills park today. The perspective really helped! There was a big improvement.

Crushed it, y'all! Nice work...the mental part is such a big part of riding.

Loved that video, very motivating!
Glad you liked it!!
Great video!! The “intimidation” factor is very real for most riders IMO….super cool to see your take on how to deal with it!
Glad you enjoyed it!
So great to see the progression and overcoming fear! Great coaching and great to see the smiles after accomplishing the goal!
Thank you! 🙏

Those jumps are a blast when you clear them!
They are awesome, so well build!

Good job!!! Not all guys say ‘I can’t do it “😅. I’m ready for Anneke the most terrific coach EVER.
Thanks!!

Really great video. Anneke is a great coach, Jess you're a good student. Thanks for posting!
Awesome!
Really cool video. Great content; keep sharing…
Thanks!
Great video and very helpful!
So helpful, Aneeke - great coaching session!
Thank you!
Way to go Jess! Jumping the e-bike too! 🤘
yes, she did! 🚀⚡️

Totally! Often experienced that myself.
Nice job Jess!! 👏🏻
You two are the bestest!
How should you set up a full suspension for jumps? Does a firmer setup provide more pop? I’m a roadie trying to learn the ins and outs. Thanks!
Thanks!
?when you stand tall should your feet be level or the front of your foot/toes pointed down slightly?
Ideally front foot flat, back foot toes slightly down.
@@annekebeerten Sweet... I appreciate you responding and putting out solid content.
The speed difference from the case landing to the speed clearing looked almost double. I case every jump, looks like I need to start with a faster approach.
Slowly build up that speed and get more comfortable with that! But at the end you’ll definitely need speed to clear the whole jump. Good luck 🙌!
@@annekebeerten good advice!
@@annekebeerten Thanks! Love your content!

As a man I’ll just say that looks scary 😂
