I built a MTB trail and these guys killed it!

- Опубликовано: 18 июн 2022
- The backyard MTB trail build continues with a new berm and I invited a crew of riders from Moruya Bicycles and Narooma Bicycles to shred the trail.
The new flow section of the mountain bike trail continues with a new berm right after the s-bend that I built in the previous episode. This section is incredibly fun to ride and is a lot faster.
I used my mini excavator to dig out the inside of the corner and dump the dirt on the outside to build up the riding surface. I had to shuffle the dirt back and forth a few times before I was pleased with the shape of the curve.
Each episode takes a hell of a lot of work. If you would like to support me and my channel, you can buy MTB apparel from my shop or join my Patreon crew.

I had to put the last shot in there somewhere. Crashed the drone because I was hiding out of shot and couldn't see the tree 😂
Hahaha I didn’t even notice the first time, it’s a perfect transition to end on 😂
Those guys smashed it. The trail looks so good. Love the look of the new berms.
Thanks heaps for the opportunity to come down and ride them, absolutely loved it, beautifully built and shaped, legend 🤙
I will build some more and you have to come back and shred it all again.
Those guys made it look even better! Loved the time lapse of the stars. ✨
Right! They were ripping! I had actually planned to get a timelapse of the sunset but it ended up a pretty forgettable one so I decided to give the stars ago instead.
I'm a trail worker here in The States and your work is stellar and certainly makes me want to get some more time building MTB trails; maintain this sick level of work and the videos that are artistry in and of themselves.
Not sure if it means much, but I showed these to my brother who isn't an outdoorsman in the slightest, and he simply said:
'It's criminal that this guy doesn't have more subscribers, I couldn't stop watching.' and I can't agree more. Keep it up! (also an Alaska mill overview would be sweet)
Hi Nico, stoked you found my channel! Very cool you are out working on trails as well! And thank you for your kind words, it means a lot to me. Very cool that your brother liked my videos as well. I great to know that my content is interesting to people outside of the MTB community. It gives me more hope that this channel could really blow up one day.
I have had lots of questions about the Alaskan Mill on instagram as well. I think I will need to do a dedicated video for it.
Thanks for watching and taking the time to leave a comment.
I stumbled on Cutlaps from an Instagram video, and thank God I did! This unlocked a part of my creativity I didn’t know I needed to itch. I’m stoked to watch this yard become your dream park!
Yeiwwww! Welcome to the channel mate! I'm guessing it was the skinny log bridge video on Instagram. Make sure you check out the full video of that here on RUclips. I think it's episode 8. Really stoked you found my videos.
Right on, this channel is WAY better than the current views, glad to see it picking up traction
So jelly of that mini excavator you got there. What a sweet little rig.
Shes a bit clunky but I love it. Definitely speeds up my process and it's great how small it is. It was such a great purchase.
The side winder! Build looks great!
Someone else called it the Sidewinder as well. I didn't even know it was a snake. I really like that name. Thanks Justin.
I’m loving the series. I found it randomly a few days ago and have binged all the eps. 👍
Dude thats so cool! Stoked you found the channel. Whats your favourite episode so far?
They have been all great but the one where you make the stinky high log
Yes Luke, so good mate. You could called it the ‘luge’ section. That trail is looking boss as mate, keep it up! Those other riders made it look even better👌🏼
True! It does look like a lge or bobsled track there. The guys were shredding. It was so good to see. I have to get them back to ride some more.
I love that supervisor with his white hair staying calm whatever you do. My supervisor has grey hair and is always telling me what to do and how to do it.🤣😂
AHahaa! Yeah my supervisor is pretty chill 😂
Love your little helper lying around on the job Luke!
Haha she loves it out there. Especially laying in the fresh dirt.
The boys from the bike shop were killing it. You need to build up aroind where they were airing out of the berm into the next berm. It looked so sick. Your videos are so good and you explain everything well.
I like your style! I actually did go back and build up a bit of a lip for people to pop off into the next berm. I should give it a try. Completely forgot about it actually.
Your videos are getting better every time I see them, keep up the good work! The trails are looking mint!
Yeiww thanks Josh. How good is it seeing the guys riding the trail. They were shredding.
@@cutlaps they were shredding it! So sick seeing them ride it!
@@Josh_MTB I will definitely get them back again when I build a few more features. Its helpful with the build process as well.
What music did u use in the intro?
It's called Motions by Saint James
I always enjoy your video, great build and amazing rides, the footage was sick. Thanks for sharing and your great content. Keep up the good work and ride on🤙
Yeiwwww thanks mate! Congrats on the 1000 subs that is awesome!
@@cutlaps Thanks a lot mate, I really appreciate that. Have a nice week🤙
@@ckMTB you two legend!
@@cutlaps 🙏
How good is it to see that roller double work let’s you know you got the trail done right keep up the great work we are all enjoying watching along
I was stoked with how easy they were clearing it. They said it was the perfect pop and distance for the trail speed. Now I just need to work on my skills so I can clear it too. They just make it look so easy haha.
Looking better and better! So sick seeing the lads shred the trail. Yiewwww
Man they killed it. Great to see
Yes mate! Crazy to see how quickly your channels grown, also love to see the trail starting to flow and work all together (:
Thanks mate! The trail has a lot more flow now, and it's so much fun to ride. Really want to make sure there are no boring bits.
So cool! So glad I found this channel! Keep up the grind man!
Thanks Connor. I'm glad you found it as well. How did you find it?
You could call that section of turns a “chicane” which is by definition “a tight sequence of corners in alternate directions.” Brilliant trailwork mate 🇨🇦✌🏼
Oh yeah that could work. Except I have been calling the tight turns before the stump drop (4:29) the chicane. I needed to add that in to slow the trail down before the drop. So cool you are from Canada. I want to travel over there so bad in winter and summer!
In my opinion I think you should call it “The Python” because it’s long and curvy but I still think that I’m tied between “The Python and “Chicane” both of them sound perfect
Epic Video mate, the effort you put in is incredible! Keep it up and i cant wait for more👍😀🎥🎬🔥
Cheers mate! Huge effort for every episode but luckily I love it all. Building, filming, riding and even the editing.
Another excellent video!!! I’m pretty sure your channel will blow up in a few months if you keep up this amazing work!!! Looking forward to some more interesting features and it would also be interesting to see you riding more trails.
Yewiww thanks Titas! Currently working on this flow section which is mostly dirt but I am really keen to build something with wood again soon. Do you have any cool ideas for interesting features? And there are a few new MTB trail centres being built nearby where I live. When they open I will have to go test ride them.
I’d love to see a wallride or a sharkfin but what you’ve done is already amazing. Just love trail builders who share their work with such passion and enthusiasm! It motivates me to go build and ride some sick trails.
@@titasmotekaitis I would love to build a big shark fin. But I definitely need to get more confident at jumping first. And a wall ride out of wood would be sick! So good it motivates you to get out and ride 🤟
Awesome footage the track is looking awesome as well! Keep up the awesome content.
Thanks mate! I can't wait for the entire flow section to be finished. It should be a ripper.
Loving the videos mate, keep up the good work!
Thanks Lance! I'll hopefully be out at the trail digging more this arvo!
Sick, Mates going to be the next Berm Peak
Cheers dude! Only need 2.4 million more subscribers and I'll catch Berm Peak 😂😂😂
your vides are Amazing!!!!your Such a GREAT BULDER THE BEST PROPERLY.I don't no how you make those cool as drops and jumps. your own mtb trails are sick.
THanks legend. Stoked you like the videos and builds. I'm trying to build one of the best trails in Australia.
what a sick video! got home from a ride and watched this video, totally kept the stoke going!
Hell yeah that's what I like to hear!!
digging, filming and editing was rad on this one man!!! keep cuting laps!
Cheers dude! Berm needed a little extra work. I was out there today finishing it off. Its riding even better now. Thanks for watching.
Wicked trail and sick berms!! Those guys seriously ripped!!
Thank you! Yeah they made the trail look so easy!
Hell yeah a new video! More epic digging and riding, can never get enough of your content! 🔥🤘
Yeiwwww thanks Charlie! If you are ever in Aus it would be rad to get some film of you ripping the trail as well. I'm sure you would destroy it!
@@cutlaps that would be absolutely amazing, not planning on going to australia anytime soon but if ever I come I would love to!
Can’t wait for your next episode. Keep up the good work
Thanks mate. I'm keen to get back out there and get to work.
Only just got onto this channel, I've watched all the videos. Really enjoy watching the progress!
Very cool. How did you find it? And what's been your favourite episode so far?
@cutlaps the boner log and the stump drop to transition. I'm looking forward to seeing the creek gap🤙 your doing a great job
Nicely done dude... your channel is flying now 👍
Thanks Todd, my video going viral on instagram has been good for some new subscribers. Will see if it keeps going.
Another great video, I keep expecting to check back and find your channel to have blown up. Keep it up man!
Thanks mate! One day it will blow up... maybe. I just have to keep having fun with what I'm doing. Thanks for watching.
Snake run looks awesome! Those guys looked surprised by it.
Thanks mate, I think we were all a little surprised by how well it worked.
Nice camera work! It has been fun watching your trail develope.
Cheers Clint, glad you are along for the ride.
Yeww! What a vid! Keep em coming mate! Those riders are machines as well!! Snake run pro lessons on the horizon? Name for the burns - the 'serpentine section'. Free T-shirt points??
Cheers dude! They were shredding. I had a great time riding with them but it was just a quick session. I could really use a pro lesson from them for sure haha. Nice name! I'll put your name into the hat twice 😂
just binged all the episodes from 1 to 10, so sick
Yeiwww stoked you found the channel. Thats so cool you binged the entire series so far. What was your favoutire episode?
@@cutlaps prob this one so far, i love watching flow being built, could be the skinny one too thought. that one was sick but something id probably skip
@_immortal_0 This one was also good because it showed lots of the trail again. The skinny was also very creative. Thanks for watching
Luke - once again, great video! You are killing it in the production quality and content of your videos. I enjoy your enthusiasm and drive to create a great trail. Don't forget some tech thrown in just to keep the riders honest... you don't want too much flow! Maybe a rock garden to break up the flow? Call that new S section the Aussie Flow section - there are a couple S's in Aussie to compliment the extra curves/burns you've added.
Thanks Joseph! I like the idea of the tech keeping the riders honest 😂. It's just a bit of a struggle to have a rock garden with the current trail. The only rocky sections are in really sandy soil and they aren't very big. So after a couple of rides the come loose. So sadly I think this trail will be without a proper rock garden but dont you worry! I have been exploring the property and have found some perfect tech lines through janky rock. Some really gnarly stuff that I don't even want to ride. Definitely some tech trails coming in the future. And Aussie flow works with back to back Ss. I like that.
Wow this is actually cool 👍
Love that golden dirt.
Its perfect! It's something like crushed granite and clay. The berm I built with it a few weeks ago is fully like concrete now.
Its suprising that on RUclips University there arent more trail building videos. Well done.😮
Thanks mate. Decent trail building videos can be hard to come by because of the amount of time and effort that goes into each one. I find them extremely satisfying to watch. @bcpov has some great trail building videos and Seth at @backyardtrailbuilds is another favourite.
Your channel is sick! I loved watching this trail progress and you progress aswell, I wish I had dirt like that all we have is dust.
My top layer is dust as well. I have to dig down about 1 foot to get to the good stuff
Favorite moment, Luke running through the trees @5:21 🤣 best shot @5:39 with split action!!! I’ve been there when berms don’t feel right, looks like the deeper curve holds you in better. Love the late night dig session @2:50 before buddies arrive, been there too 😆 @4:47 I had a feeling that 2nd to 3rd turn wanted to be jumped, you could lift the end of the second to create more fall in the transition between the two.
@5:07 you were right those rollers are fine and something to progress too.
@5:15 sick knolly!!!
What a great build and video, so awesome to see your trail coming together!!!!
Hahaha I was wondering if you would notice me legging it through the trees! Thats me with my camera in hand trying to get the shot and not fall over. Amazing how smooth they come out.
Yeah a couple of extra loads of dirt at the end of that 2nd berm would give you a bit of a kick.
They made the rollers look so easy. It just flowed so nicely for them. Love it.
@@cutlaps congrats, creations like this are meant to be enjoyed, I’m so stoked for you!
@@mattspen I'm stoked that so many people are enjoying it through my videos as well.
@@cutlaps ☝🏼for sure
Nice one Luke ... getting the boys out was a fantastic idea 🤘 ...and by the way the shirt is a perfect fit 👍
It was great to have some people really show off the trail! And stoked the shirt fits perfect. You will have to send me some photos or video
@@cutlaps will do
So good mate, your storytelling is awesome. Can’t wait to see the next episode.
Thanks Froff!! I just realised I have some big design jobs on that I had forgotten about 😬😬😬. I hope they don't eat into my trail building time too much. I want to get the next episode out as soon as possible and try and keep a regular RUclips schedule.
@@cutlaps gotta pay for that new Drone?
@@Froff haha I wish! Rent and food comes first and maybe a few beers 😂
@@cutlaps 😂 so the drone survived the crash?
@@Froff yeah it caught itself before hitting the ground. Lucky.
ss bends
sick ep dude! looking incredible
Cheers Johnny, it was getting a little dry and dusty out there but its just rained over night. Hopefully enough for perfect building conditions.
This channel is gonna go far
It would be amazing to be able to make a living out of RUclips. Living the dream, building and riding my own trail all day.
good shit bro! cool trail!
Cheers legend. The trail is lots of fun.
Yeah Boi, looking dialled.
Wobblygong or Noodles for the new section. That gold dirt looks so nice
😂😂 haha great names. Could even call it Danger Noodles to go with the snake theme. The gold dirt is primo!!! It packs down so solid and should hold up well against rain.
@@cutlaps "Danger Noodles", love it.
Bug future ahead of you man. 🤘 keen to come ride them one day when the moruya crew heads up there next
Yeah man that would be sick.
Yes Luke!!
Love that you dropped this so quickly after the last one!
Hopefully capitalise on that viral insta clip slightly with the algorithm here!
The extra little bits keep improving man, the animation you did with the map and the animated crinkled paper behind was sick.
Also love so much that you're in to astro photography too! Sick time lapse of the Milky way!
Trail keeps improving and love Aggie hanging out as usual 😁
Also great seeing more of the trail with the sections yet to be polished, you've got some work ahead of you!
Keep it up mate!
Cheers dude! Yeah I had a little fun with some stop motion yesterday creating the paper scrunch effect. Took longer than expected in after effects adding in the map lol. And I enjoy astro photoraphy, it had been a while since I had tried it. Wasn't super happy with the results due to a few camera issues (which hopefully I have resolved). Will definitely try some more and see if I can improve.
The trail is always evolving. At this rate I don't think it will ever be finished haha.
Bruh I love this RUclips channel no joke
Cheers mate! How did you find it?
Hey Luke bro
Amazing video!! Love it 😊
Ive never seen a single person work on a trial so hard in my life, well done 👍🏻 oh btw I've always wanted one of those t shirts ever since angus showed me. 🤘🏻 keep shredding man
Cheers Pete!! I'll have to drop some more shirts into the shop!
@@cutlaps saweeeet, ill take medium thanks 😊 your welcome
Ngl the drone shot in the beginning is awesome!
Te gaps in the trees were perfect hey! Did you see the very last shot? I crashed it on the way to film that first shot lol. Drone caught itself before it hit the ground luckily.
Great channel ❤
Thank you! I hope to have my next video finished early next week. Its been a few months of work so I am pretty excited.
This video was fun!!
Stoked you liked it. Thanks for watching. 🤟
The content keeps getting better each episode. Love that night sky Timelapse. Great storytelling Luke. The quality is super high on the video edits. It’s a pleasure to watch. Good length on your vids as well, reckon that 10min mark is a good duration. What’s next, can’t wait to see. Keep it it up mate. 🤘🏼🤙🏼
Cheers mate. Glad you like the timelapse. I hadn't done a night sky one for a long time and I had a few issues with the camera. I think I can get them looking even better in the future. It would be cool to get some shots of the features with the stars above. Glad you like the video length. I don't think I would be able to manage any longer unless it was some crazy feature build.
@@cutlaps people tend to tune out on longer vids. The Timelapse of the build with the sun in the background was great as well as it showed the real-time that it actually takes. It’s easy to think that just watching 20sec in a video actually took hours. Much respect in the build time and some envy, the videos on top are awesome insight as well.
@@Relentless_Hard_Enduro I was wondering if anyone notices the shadows from the trees moving in the timelapse. It's like a sun dial letting you know how much time is actually going by.
yay new video!
Hope you enjoy it!
@@cutlaps very much did! i subscribed a few weeks ago! soon ill get 1k subs to like you!
@@Mr.Boost123 yeiwwww you will get there dude! Keep up the grind!!!
Your video's are awesome
CHeers Tim! Thanks for watching.
I dont think ive ever seen a youtuber as underrated as you lmao, love your vids keep up the amazing work!
Haha thanks mate! I just have to keep having fun doing what I am doing and the channel will grow.
@@cutlaps definitely, I hope you’ll make it for sure so you can make more of these vids!
Thats the dream!
@@cutlaps yeahhh
trail section suggestion: sidewinder. it's snake related, sounds cool and kinda represents the overall shape
Oooh I like that. I didn't realise it was a snake until I googled it. The sidewinder berms!
@@cutlaps yeah here to vote for sidewinder too! We have them back home in the southwest US and its exactly what I thought of on that overview shot
Dude in Oregon that red clay you just put fill dirt wanted sign in your front yard or call excavators and your whole yard could be dirt paradise haha
Hahah thats not a bad idea.
Amazing video
Legend. Thanks mate
@@cutlaps your welcome
Sick trail. T shirts r cool too. Next you need to do stickers
Good idea! I'll definitely have to get some stickers made up.
your content is soo good! you desiver 10mil subs!!!
Thanks mate!
Awesome Luke. How impressive were the crew from Moruya & Narooma, hit those berms like a breeze. Did you set up a drainage plan, curious to know. Great to see the your channel growing nicely as well. 🤟🤟🤟
Man, they killed it. So good to see, and lots of fun to ride with them. The drainage plan for the new berm is down the inside and then I need to shape a dip in the trail where I want the water to cross. But I wasn't exactly sure where yet because there will be a bit of a trail change coming up. The dip doesn't have to be deep but the wider the better. The wider it is the less erosion happens.
Yesss
🤟🤟🤟
@5:16…..don’t ya just hate those blokes 🤣
Haha they just shred! Make it look so smooth and easy. That will be me one day. Except I don't spend enough time riding. Too busy digging haha.
Sick
Stoked you have been enjoying the videos.
i love your videos i am a mountain biker to.
So cool.
Another sick video! Your trail seems to ride perfect. The guys from the Moruya and Narooma Shop really showed how well its built. Looking forward for more! And a huge thanks for the t-shirt! How can we get in contact to sort things out?
Thanks Lorin! I was a little nervous to have some decent riders hit the trail. It flows for me but I wasn't sure about the higher speeds for them. But they had a great time. And congrats on wining a shirt. You can send me an email (listed on my youtube profile page) or DM me on Instagram and we will get it all sorted.
Congrats on the shirt Lorin, love mine!
@@cutlaps I know the feeling of building for certain speeds, I like the roller coaster feeling when a trail moves you back and forth in flowy zen but then my faster friends focus on KOM speeds complain everything is too sharp and I agree, when I go those speeds it is to sharp but and it looses the zen feeling. Then I build longer drawn out high speed trails and yeah allow for ripping and are fast but they don’t have that same zen state flow of swirling about the trail 🤷🏻♂️
@@mattspen thanks, I‘m really looking forward to mine!
Love to see the new upload I want more😡
😂😂😂 I'm digging as fast as I can!
Call it the killer python
You know you should try to make your own bike park or partner with berm peak that would be amazing and it would help your channel grow this is just a suggestion. I said this because your very good at making trails and if you made a park not only could you enjoy it but the community would. But i love the hard work and i really look up to you man have a good day and have fun
It would be so cool to do a collaborataion with Seth from Berm Peak to build a bike park. It would be very cool to be able to build something that eveyone can ride.
@@cutlaps yes it would me and my friends built this big jump today and i did my first teeter totter
I don't even ride my bike much and this is still super interesting. I wonder what the guys were thinking while riding it?
Thanks mate! Yeah they had a great time. Really enjoyed riding the trail and can't wait to come back again.
Hey mate, I’m just watching a bunch of your old videos to catch up on the build and I was wondering what camera you use. It’s incredibly clear!
Cool you are watching some of the earlier videos. I have the GoPro hero 9 and 10. I have a few other cameras as well but I don't really use them. It's just way easier to set up the GoPro. But I use a mini shotgun mic when recording audio. What camera do you use?
@@cutlaps I use the GoPro Hero 10 as well. It'd be awesome to see a video on the settings you use! Also, I should probably invest in a mic 😅
Yeah I have a list of videos I would like to create and that is one of them. But pretty much I shoot in 4k at 25 frames a second unless I'm filming slomo. And I often use a tripod. Uploading to RUclips in 4k helps because they compress it and it loses quality. I shoot flat colour because I colour grade my video but it takes much longer.
@@cutlaps Thanks!
cool
good
Gooooooooood 🙌
i really want to go to this place to ride this track
IT is really fun to ride. At the moment it isn't open to the public, but as my RUclips channel grows I hope to be able to afford to build something like this that anyone can ride.
@@cutlaps ok no problem cant wait for more videos
A cool name could be the snake river
You should name the triple Berm *fang frame*
Not bad at all!
Nice
Cheers dude
@@cutlaps i got a t shirt its so cool!
@@A_Boys_Life awesome!
Call it The Wiggles!!!! 😂
Haha thats not bad!
vey nice
Cheers Tom
You should call those berms the “Cobra curves”
Yeah thats not bad. I eneded up calling them Sidewinder which is another type of snake.
Slick snake
Good name! This one ended up being called the "Sidewinder" which is a type of snake.
@@cutlaps that’s a good name
I was wondering if you could dig a ditch and use a large stone prop up to the water flows underneath it instead of a pipe?
Yeah you could definitely do that. And it would look more natural as well. Honestly I would prefer to do that but I don't have any rocks that size or the correct shape which is a bummer.
@@cutlaps New Hampshire has big rocks, lots of them.
@@williamgriswold2593 can you ship some over to me! I would love to build some features out of rock. 🤣
I’d call them the Porsche Curves
Ohhhh yeah fast and flowy!
Call it Cobra Corner
Ohh the cobra corner would have been a good name for the corkscrew
There's a kind of inevitability to this. In three years you'll be digging 8 foot lips and 20 foot gaps.
😬😬😬 honestly that would be sick. But I'm just not a natural jumper. I love it but there's something about getting height that my brain shuts me down. I just have to keep at it and slowly improve. Check back in 3 years and see if I'm hitting 20 foot gaps haha
Only the best mtbers can also crash drones 😎😜
Haha! I saw your crash as well. Glad it didnt break.
'Snake it til you make it'
That could also be cool on a shirt!
you should call the section worm ride
Thats actually a great name!
Berms are great but are they the answer to every turn?
That depends on the trail and also it's surroundings. I'm building myself a flow trail with fun berms because that doesn't exist in my area. There's plenty of trails with flat turns and at the moment I don't want to build one of those. So to answer your question... At the moment for me yes berms are the answer 🤣
@@cutlaps it was rather a philosophical question 😁.
Didn't mean to be disrespectful or anything..
Kudos for what you're doing there!!
Just discovered your channel..!
Loving the party 🎉 flow of this section// \\🚲💃📐✅
Same! It flows so nicely and the new section I'm currently working on really adds to it!
Viper tail
Oh yeah thats a pretty good name!
Serpent slider
Nice one
