My girlfriend April has been riding mountain bikes for the last two years and has been progressing really fast.

Watching someone else learn is a great way to learn! My Manuals just got 1000x better in 30 minutes of practicing these lessons!!!
That’s so awesome! I’m super stoked to hear that! Just keep practicing and they will be like second nature!
Kyle Warner - Mtb either my manuals suck, or I almost loop out
@@sebastiendoucet2058 try looping out with break modulation.
Mine too
did you really go from 1 foot long manuals to 1000 feet long manuals in 30 minutes? hahaa
I was watching Kyle make this video, I had seen one his videos before. We started chatting about bikes and I told him I just bought my bike and did not have a chance to set it up yet. He grabbed his shock pump and filled my shocks, adjusted my handlebars and tire pressure. Thanks Kyle you are awesome!
Nice to meet you Don!
Class act
What's a shock pump.
@@pvt_mtbl9516 it is like a tyre pump but is used to add pressure to shocks and some forks. It's to set the bike up for the weight of the rider. Hope that helps 👍
Everyone should strive to be more like Kyle
She killed it at the end. Impressive coaching
Thanks! Yeah she did so awesome! I was super proud!
Yeah man, 10/10!
Impressive learner, too. I've been where she is, and she's progressed way faster than me.
Ur ways of teaching are brilliant definitely making me won't to try more and learn
Детектив
In general, for all RUclips channels, having a true beginner on the show really makes a big difference.
Completely agree
I love how Kyle is so gentle, polite and patient as he teaches April and how April says “thank you” all the time ❤️. You are a great role model to your viewers.
Thank you so much!!! 😊
@@AprilRideMTB ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I had so much fun making this video with April! I hope you guys find it helpful and fun! Would you guys want to see anymore of these? And if so do you have any things we could have done better? I just really want this to be a helpful resource for you guys wanting to improve your MTB Skills!
This was great. I'd love to see more.
Thanks! Yeah we will do some more as soon as this rain stops here in Idaho haha! Its been crazy for like two weeks
excellent, articulation and detailed communication...looking forward to hopefully drops, hops, wheelies, jumps and more...
Yes please. Good informative vid btw! 😀
I would love more videos like this. Your explanation and graphics really made it clear how to achieve a manual. Using April to demonstrate the progression really works well too. Your drops video is equally well done. Thanks Kyle!
April picks up physical skills exceedingly well. That coupled with Kyle's ability to see the subtleties of what makes a move work, really make these extremely good videos.
Yeah she is a badass! she is good on a dirtbike, surfboard, and can figure out pretty much anything she puts her mind too! I feel super lucky. Thanks for the nice comment!
The most impressive part is teaching your girlfriend something without a massive fight ha ha ha haaaaa
I’m a new Mtb‘er At 37 and my daughter at 8 years old. After watching your video we were manualing down our street and wheelie-ing back up in 20 minutes. Thanks awesome video, Australia.
That’s so cool! I’m stoked to here that!
I don’t believe that
@@thehighground4920 salty
@@Samurai-fx8cu it’s not true tho
🐂💩
I'm very impressed with her eagerness to learn. A lot of us fail to progress because we aren't humble enough to leave our comfort zone and be vulnerable. Nice work you two!
Well said, thank you very much :)
I just want to drop by and say how great is it to see someone who had a really painful and pretty nasty fall who is still beginner not quit and come back and ACE it! big ups
Thank you so much! Yeah that was a scary one and it was before I had ever had any coaching. It helps so much being a little more confident in using the right technique!
coaching a partner in anything can be tough on the ol' relationship - you've got great coach skillz, well done!
I’ve watched a million how to manual videos, and have to say this is the best because it pauses to describe what not to do. Most other ones talk about doing an L shape and all that, but if you’re doing it wrong you won’t know what to fix. And I practically ripped the arm out of my shoulder once trying to figure it out, and after seeing this the lightbulb has gone off. I’ve been stretching my legs completely out causing my torso to lean forward....
thank you Kyle!!!
Yeah thank you for watching! I am glad it helped! We will try to do some more soon too!
Awesome tutorial.
A girlfriend that beautiful that loves MTB is priceless. Congratulations brother!😃👍
It sure is! i feel so lucky every single day.
Dude I would rather be Kyle than Elon musk 😂
@@AprilRideMTB Kyle, you do know we watch your videos for April right??..April fools! Sure u heard that before.. seriously love your videos!
And she rides MX too.. win win win win win,, too may bonus points to count.. don't get no better then April..
One of the best manual tutorials I have watched... You two come across really well on camera and April is really quick at applying the technique 👍
Thanks! I’m really glad you enjoyed it! It was super fun to make
Yo man! Great idea coaching your girlfriend. I find it's useless for someone who can already manual well to demonstrate how to learn to do it. Watching someone who can't do it, progress is much more helpful. I first found your how to wheelie, which I can already do, but I found you teaching your girlfriend was great so I searched your vids for this one.
Great stuff!
thats so cool! Thanks for that feedback! glad you like them!
This is such an amazing channel. I’ve applied so much of the lessons from this channel to my riding and it’s helped me progress faster than I could on my own. You 2 are killing it!
Dude, she wanted a kiss for her efforts. Beautiful chemistry you guys have.
haha thanks! Yeah she got one later!
It really is adorable
Both of y’all’s personalities are awesome! If you guys keep pumping out the videos I think y’all can be really successful on the tube. I always look forward to what y’all have to show us next. Show us more!
Thank you so much!!!
Kyle, you are such a great teacher, excellent explanations, sensitive to April's pace and very supportive and encouraging. April, you are such a determined student, a fast learner and a brave person, not just for trying new things, but for putting it on film. I started watching these videos in the winter, so I won't likely get a chance to practice for a few months, but I'm looking forward to it. Thank you both.
10:14 I love the kid who said "Woah, he's fast"
Kyle, you’re the most kind and down to earth pros out there. Good techniques! Could you do a cornering/burm lesson next?
Thank you! Yeah totally we will try to knock one of those out soon! There is a lot to unravel in that one haha
@@AprilRideMTB Sure is. I'd like to see a series of cornering vids. Just a few ideas: Low Speed, Tight Downhill AND Uphill Switchbacks. High Speed Downhill Switchbacks. High-Speed Corkscrew Bermed corners (like at a bike park, I keep washing out on those....too much weight over the front wheel I believe). Great job on the vids!
@@AprilRideMTB Thanks guys! you too April!
This video is awesome!!! I'm a new rider and seeing April go through the learning process really helps and Kyle you are an excellent teacher. Keep it up guys!!! From your newest subscriber.
Awesome! Thank you so much!
not had anyone make so clear, simple and fun to watch before. instantly identified with what I was doing wrong...awesome videos man!
Glad you liked it! Thanks!
KILLER video man!! So rad watching the dynamic between you two. Well done BOTH of you!!
10:15 kid in the background “wow he is fast” 😂
Love watching these, thanks for all the tips. April you’re rad! Giving me lots of motivation to practise. Fantastic teaching Kyle - you’re a great team!
Thank you so much Ellie!
Your videos are great, man. Working through this material with April gives a great presentation and allows for us to see valid progression and improvement. Thanks, and please keep making these.
I just discovered these videos. I can't wait to practice what you are teaching. It is so helpful to see someone else learning, rather than perfect run after perfect run. Please keep them up!
Thanks Dustin, we are glad you like our dynamic!
I love how he always reminds us guys that she's his girlfriend so that we don't hit on her 😂
Haha :)
Yes..i noted that too.. 😁😁
Nice girl tho 🔥🔥🔥
I always think that he does that so you know the relationship, not to chase people away. I think I watched a video where he didn't say that and I kept thinking... what is their relationship deal?
She is really cute, elegant, charming and beautiful. Kyle is lucky.
That's the first time I've heard anyone say that having short legs means I've got to get the front up more. Makes perfect sense now that I know. Thanks for the tip.
Happy to help!
They're so polite to each other! I love it! Great coaching tips! Great student! Man, I need a personal coach!
a good coach helps soooo much!
Dude don’t stop making these videos! They are super helpful, and it’s great watching a beginner like myself make common mistakes then have you address them. Best “how to” mtb videos hands down!
Glad you like them! Thanks for the feedback Jake!
I AM SOOO HYPE, I just watched this video twice, went outside and practiced for two hours and I finally was able to do my first actual manual, best guide by far, I am so excited to get better at this, thanks so much for the help
That is so awesome, congrats Charles! Keep practicing 😊
Awesome! Pointing out that ankle movement is something I instantly realized I’m doing wrong. And then the goal on the pump track April pointed out was helpful in integrating it to trails.
Thats awesome! I am so glad to help, I really just want to provide useful info for you guys and April helped me re think and recognize some things i would have passed over
Thanks to you both! It was super helpful to have her input.
Love your positive vibes! My wife and I just got our first mountain bikes and are looking forward to getting into it :)
Such good basic explanation without over talking. I appreciate this. Having April is the perfect person (Note, you are really good at making one feel at ease.) Cheers
Been riding for 20 years and have been doing so many things wrong apparently. Your videos are amazing. Best on RUclips for sure. Patient and unassuming. I’m hitting drops with confidence because of you guys and learning to manual. Thanks so much and keep the videos coming.
That is so awesome to hear, we are glad you gave our videos a shot even though you have been riding a while. I think people often confuse these videos for only being for beginners :)
Dude this was epic!! Nice job teaching and great job to your GF! I was literally blown away at her manuals on those doubles! I’ve ridden dirtbike most of my life and even picked up a few tips! Thanks! Sub’d
Thanks so much!! I am glad you enjoyed it!!
The Best how to maual Video i have seen YET. THANK YOU BOTH :)
Your videos are fantastic! Kyle, you are really good at explaining in a really comprehensive and positive way, and April, I love how you have the guts to show your progress, and fears, on camera. Seeing you work through the steps of each skill has really helped me. I like watching Kyle ride, but I learn more from learning along with you April. You two have a brilliant teaching process - thanks!
Thanks so much Benjamin, that means a lot. We are having a ton of fun helping people learn and fall more in love with the bike!
that was awesome, Thank you for your teaching. since I discover you guys my riding skills have improved so much. I really appreciate it very much
That's so awesome to hear!
Thank you, April, for being such a good sport. By far the most helpful video I have seen.
Glad it was helpful!
I just found your channel. I'm excited to practice some of what I've forgotten how I did as a kid 40 years ago on a BMX bike.
Yet another amazing video! I’m loving all the videos you 2 are producing. April’s manual at the end of this video is amazing! I love how Kyle is so gentle and supportive in his coaching. Can’t wait to go try this out myself. Thank you Kyle and April. You guys are amazing! Love and peace from a non-skilled weekend warrior biker from Malaysia!
Thank you so much for the nice comment! We are so happy to be helping you guys :)
April last run was just perfect...cant wait tomorrow for my practice!
Thank you guys !!!
Thank you, good luck!
WOW SHE DID IT...i have been practicing these for ages and no joy and she did it after a lesson....right i think heels down is key...and ride off the hump let the bike do it.
Yeah exactly, the heel down is the point most people miss out on
Wow . As a 30 year PSIA ski instructor I know good coaching and teaching when I see it. What a wonderful manner, easy going, clear, relaxed, clarifies her questions before answering, entirely positive, approaches the feel as well the technical. And one adorable demo person.
I love all of your videos! Watching April get coached step-by-step has been especially helpful for a beginner like me. I can't ever learn it as fast or as well as she does, but it's better than what i was doing before. You both are so calm and nice, so it doesn't feel stressful to watch the video like other tutorial videos! Thank you for all of these wonderful tips...i wish i had a personal Kyle coach in my life 😊
I'm so glad! Thank you so much for the kind words and for watching Raquel :)
Pfff, this video was the only one that helped me! Hope we can have a similar one on Bunny Hops!
Sweet! Thats so rad! Yeah we have bunny hops, wheelies, turns and jumps on the list!
@@AprilRideMTB Sweet, can't wait! Maybe endo after that...
the big smile that popped on my face when she got it at the end
😁
Love your video's. You mention tips that I've not heard any where else before but also keep it simple and not over load with things to do or remember. That really helps me so thank you 😁
Thanks Kelly, we are so glad that you find our videos helpful!
She picks things up so fast that’s really impressive. You are an amazing teacher.
Didn't realize I was so close to you this whole time lol. I go to BSU.
Difficult to say who’s more proud...April of her manuals or Kyle of his gf 😁 Super helpful vid guys...thanks
Both! haha. Thanks for watching!
This is the perfect format for a tutorial video!
Thankyou guys so much!
Incredibly helpful!
Can't wait for more!
Thank you Winston!
I love it how supportive u are in every video. Great tips and instructions too. Instant subscribed.
The kid in the back 10:13 "woah hes fast" 😂😂
haha :)
she just smiles constantly
Yeah shes super sweet!
Another great video, it's very helpful watching April's progress. Thank you both!
Nice work, one of the better manual tutorials out there and I've watched them all (including the ones in different languages with no subtitles). You nail the subtleties that make a huge difference (heels down and looking straight ahead) and are easy to forget about. Love to see you put out a thorough J-hop tutorial in the future! Thanks for sharing.
yeah bunny hop will be next week!
Request!!! I want to see a Kyle and Skills with Phil manual competition!!
That would be super fun!
I love how u always reply to everyone’s comments 😃
Btw I’m trying to manual and I’m really nervous..... I’m trying to manual so I can learn to bunny hop 🥲
Your videos have been most helpful for clicking for me so far- you guys rock!!
Great to hear, thanks Ashley!
This channel is so wholesome. You’re the best.
Do I try manual or wheelie first? Aka standing or sitting. I’m 6’3” on a hardtail.
When I taught my brother to do this I told him to pretend that there is an invisible chair above his back wheel
That was so awesome! She made that look so easy on the pump track! Way to go April! I gotta watch this again & then go try. And try. And try again. And again.
Thank you Stephanie!
thank you Kyle and April, the technical aspect of Kyle's explanation plus the learner's hesitation by April (which is how my son and feel) make it so real, relatable and easy to understand the steps to go into doing a MANUAL correctly. thank you so much again Kyle and April! you guys are awesome!
Happy to help!
10:14 Little kid:"Woah he's fast".
haha so cute!
Hi kyle, my bike is not full suspension. Is the step to manual same like this or not?
Yes it is the same!
Wow! Awesome Job by both of you. Great coaching. Super-impressive that she conquered the rollers so quickly!
Greetings...that last run was awesome. Confidence and correct knowledge...great combination.
April shreds 🤘🏼Great Video. Head down tip is 💰
Thanks Patrick! Yeah I hope it can help you guys out!
10:13 was i the only one that Heard wow hes fast
So lovely mtb couple. You guys make me smile everytime, and my skill is getting improving! Thank you.
Another great vid guys, well done April. So good to watch someone learn with the coaching tips. Thanks again
Your like a younger version of Toby from the office
my checks hurt if i smile as much and as long as they do
Thank you for dedication on all of your videos! I am one those guys that I haven’t be able master for years yet, but will take these advise.
That girl's awesome for being willing to learn in front of everyone (us). Thanks a lot. I love your videos. Keep it up.
Thank you, yes April is a trooper for this.
I have been trying to manual for a while now, and I still can't get it. I think I have good form, and I know that I'm not pulling up with my arms. I was wondering if my frame shape has to do with it, since it is low and long, (30 LBS) and 26" wheels. I am also under 100 LBS so was wondering if that has to do with it. Thanks!
It is hard to know without seeing. Try filming yourself and comparing it to Kyle when he does a good manual in this video. I know that common problems I have are looking down, not squatting enough (in this video I usually had my legs too straight and you can see how much bend Kyle gets) and another thing is not getting my hips back enough. -April
@@AprilRideMTB ok👍 I'll try.
She's better than me LOL
Amazing video!! Thank you Kyle & April!! Can't wait to start practicing!! Greetings from Singapore!
The two of you are perfect in demonstrating a technique and then watching April as she incrementally gets to the point she does it is the best tutor for me. Many videos show a pro (Kyle) doing it four or five times and then some brief, incomplete explanation. Many times others forget to cover foot position and other key information. Thanks to you both for your great videos and other pros should watch them to understand how to teach better.
Thanks so much Charles, glad our dynamic works for you!
I thought he called his bike as his girlfriend
you guys make the best know-to mtb vids. Thank you !!
Defo the best manual video I've seen for a while. I actually took the info in and did a manual for only about 5 seconds. I was simultaneously elated and crapping myself 😂
haha rad! Thanks!
Thanks for creating these videos, super helpful. so good having April did so well. Would love to see a beginners tutorial to bike maintenance. changing tube/removing wheels/adjusting brakes/cleaning
I have seen your teaching videos from all platforms and I feel very good. My bike skills have improved a lot.
Glad to hear that!
Thanks for the great vid, all these lines you draw on the screen - I can feel the penny dropping with the theory/biomechanics! really appreciated :)
Thanks Russell 😊 It’s a lot of work, but worth it!
Excellent lesson. I cheered out loud when April took those bumps perfectly. I've tried to do this in the past with no success at all but as soon as the weather is better I'm going to give it another shot. Thanks.
shes such a rockstar haha! I was so happy she made it!
This was a great video Kyle! April progressed really quickly in a short time! I like how positive you are in all your videos!
Thanks! I really appreciate that, yeah i just try to support people whenever i can because i know how tough it is to learn things ! Positive reinforcement goes a long way for sure!
Your channel is going to explode dude. Great content and so clear with explanation. 🤘🏼
Great dynamic between you two for these videos. That translated super well!
Thanks Rob I really appreciate that! We should do some snogo vids this winter with her!
You got skills bro this channel needs sharing asap you explain things the simplest way possible and it's very understandable.
Very fast learning. i've been struggling with the same trick for a long time. thumbs up April!
Super valuable tips. April’s really brave for jumping back into it. Helps she’s got a great coach! Subscribed!
Awesome! Thank you so much!
By far the best explanation and demo I’ve seen to date on how to do this 👍 I’ve been trying for years 🤷♂️ Can’t wait to give it ago. Thank you 😊
You can do it!
These videos are really good guidance. I wish I had looked at this two weeks ago. I was freakishly unlucky, didnt pull the brake when I looped out on a bmx. Jumped out and snapped my tibia and fibula! Trying again next year! Becoming a subscriber!
Ah! I am sorry to hear that! Thank you so much for the sub and comment though, we will try to keep more videos coming to help you guys get better!!
Both this and the wheelie video helped a lot, didnt realize I was looking down so much.
Glad it helped!
