Yea exactly, GMBN always say stuff like you have to learn a bunny hop and you have to use that in a jump, they say always the same, pinkbike is more detailled in there video’s👌
@@nickster0290 Yes, and they often say you should "use your hips" somehow to get more height, etc, but that doesn't make any sense without explaining what to do with the hips and why. Well, in comes Ben and lays it out, makes almost every aspect of it completely clear. What a boss.
This by far is the best tutorial episode and series for bike jumping on the net. Ben’s has a relaxing easy style, solid grasp of physics,biking kit and his ability to explain everything that’s relative. Damn son, keep em coming!
this is awesome. as a pretty capable rider, I enjoy teaching my friends how to ride "better" but it's always really hard because I don't know exactly what's happening when things like getting bucked or dead sailoring occurs. having the physics behind each move really helps me understand why it all happens
I've been jumping since I was a kid racing BMX in the 80's. Yet I've still watched a lot of jumping tutorials to try and refine my technique and prevent crashes. This is the BEST jumping tutorial I've ever seen. Thank you for sharing your gifts Ben Cathro! This whole series has been awesome!
Popping riding the back wheel- lean back made so much sense I’ve been riding dirt jumps and pump tracks indoors in Toronto and figuring out how to get lift instead of absorbing is hard and following some other RUclips’s vid that say stand up and seem to tell you to pull up the bars just rotates you into a nose wheelie on a transition which is cool but not good when not confident! Ben explains the physics and what is going on with the bike and your body input! Thanks Ben! He explains things in a way someone learning can understand easily!
You should get an award for this series! Absolute gold. I'd love to see an episode in season 2 that is all about suspension setup and optimization!!! It would also be great to see some analysis of common friday fails crashes to explain what people are doing wrong so as to avoid making the same mistakes!
I'd love to see an episode on riding technical terrain(i.e. roots, rocks, slabs)and possibly one on riding in dry, loose conditions. This series has been a blast from start to finish. Great work, guys.

This should be mandatory series to watch for everyone. Like weekly. :D
I’ve never heard the ‘physics’ of jumping so well explained. Especially enjoyed the bit where you explained boosting perpendicular to the lip and how that affects rotation. I’ll never be able to watch Friday Fails the same again!
Finally! 😊 Drops = Jumps👍👍👍and from the mouth of Ben Cathro, no less! I drove two coaches mad with my assertion that it's jumping, and I don't like it! 😂 Brilliant, thorough walk through of the various techniques - maybe I'll be ready to try an actual hump-jump soon 😎
A round of applause to the people in charge of audio-video editing and special effects! As great as Ben's content is, it's been taken to a whole new level with the graphics and slow-motion effects. P/S - How many Wilhelm screams were used in the entire series? 😜
Best explained how to jump video I’ve seen. Jumping has been my nemesis for a while now, I’ve never been able to pin point what I’m doing wrong but now I know. Cathro you are a Don. Man I wish I booked a coaching course with you years ago when I had the chance.
I love that you can tell that he is really progressing the meaning of these mtb terms and thinking about what they really mean, not just using other vids as his research.
Also, make sure you have enough air in your rear tire or you can easily squish out to one side or another when really pumping the take off….Learned the hard way.
Just wanted to thank you Ben, Max, Glen and anyone else involved in making this series. I just started riding about two months ago, and these lessons have been at the forefront of my mind every single session.
Best series around. Now I just need to work out how to plug this into my noggin Neo styles so it stays in there when approaching jump/berm/turn/drop/feature/etc 😜
I’ve reached the point where I’m good with trail riding, handling, drops etc. all these videos on bunny hopping(esp season 2 ep) and jumping and you showing the slow mow has really helped me. Recording myself I realized that what I feel and what I’m doing is two differen things 😂
As someone who's been trying to learn to jump this entire year, your vid helped me out the most. The ONE thing I kept getting wrong was where I should be on the bike. Every video I've watched tells me what I should be doing...compress into the face, unweight the front wheel at the lip...blah blah blah... But NEVER did they mention about where your weight should be to prevent the bike from launching you forward! Bravo, my dude.
I'm old, want to jump more effectively, with consistency and live to tell about it! This series is awesome! Great depiction of the mechanics of it all!! Thanks
I didn't like Cathro when I first came across his videos but I've got to say this instructional series is awesome and now I look forward to the content he puts out. This is the first video I've seen - and I've seen a lot - that made me understand why and how I'm screwing up my jumps and what to do to correct it. He explains it all in a way that translates to the things I already do on the bike in other scenarios. I've probably seen all parts of these techniques explained by other people but never got the entire picture. I hope I'm going to remember this stuff when the snow melts because I can tell it's going to help me improve faster. I'm really grateful to all of you guys for making this series.
Seriously have watched this video so many times. Here are my notes: - Go straight, pedals level, no turning on approach. - Knees above toes. Bend elbows and knees on approach. If you want to pop more, dip down more on approach. - Starting with the transition, not too early, press into face with arms and legs smoothly and evenly up the transition. - Rotate back, extend arms fully back in line with your fork. Head behind stem. Unweight the front wheel at the end of the lip. Allow your body to rotate backwards with the takeoff, do NOT lean forward. Drive legs into the remainder of the lip, making sure that your center mass is above rear tire and not too far forward. - For flat jumps, you may have to initiate a bunny hop **pull harder** with your arms to get your body in the correct position. For steep face jumps, this will feel more forward. You basically want your weight vertically above your rear tire when you pop. - Pop/straighten legs while pulling back on the bars **key**. Press the back wheel all the way up the lip, keeping heels down. - If you nose dive, you did not shift your weight far enough back prior to popping. - Relax. Let the bike level up beneath you.
Respect to Ben ! He jumps for this video so many times bad, to show us, how not to jump! And he did jump bad, without crashing! That’s a skilled rider😁🤙🏻
It'd be really cool for each season of How to Bike to focus on more advanced skillsets each time, so as new riders get more skilled the videos do as well
The section at 11:40 about centering your mass over the rear wheel is something I’ve never heard before and explains well how to prevent that forward rotation. Bravo lads!
Thks is the most in depth 'How to Jump' video out there. Even I know how to jump decently well, I do not realise my techniques or mistakes and why this or that happened in the air till now. I definitely will be more aware of my body position now and will try all variations mentioned. Ben you're a legend 😍
BEST HOW TO VIDEO/TUTORIAL EVER!!!!! SERIOUSLY, plenty of slow mo, explained well. I’ve been riding a long time. I’ve watched literally every video out there. I’ve got no problem clearing jumps (I raced dh so it’s always been speed , speed , speed ). Now I want to get some pop and style. After watching this a few times and practicing for a couple of hrs really focusing on bits of this at a time. Then the next bit. Then putting it all together I was clearing larger tables. Where before I was having to pin it. Now I go “trail speed” and it’s so much easier and feels better. After a few days it became natural and I wasn’t thinking about it. CHEERS MR CATHRO. Not only did you help a regular guy out. But I’m getting laid ALOT more.
One thing is to watch these series being a complete newb awaiting his bike to be shipped. Watching this after actually done some riding is whole another experience. Now I understand all described mistakes and appreciate how much into details these series dig. Cheers Ben!
yeah i've watched a ton of "how to jump" vids and eventually I figured out how to jump. This video, Hands down is the best i've ever seen, thank you!!! this is awesome, I wish this had been out there when I was getting started on jumps.
Brilliant series! Definitely learned a lot! Now to find some time to actually practice it all … Highly recommended your series to some other beginner friends who also found your videos super useful, informative and well presented! And funny most of all :) Looking forward to season 2! If you are ever planning on giving lessons at Nevis Range again I’ll be the first to sign up ;)
Did not think this would work on steep jumps but it does. The key for me was the small manual part. If you go and barely lift a manual I mean 1/2 inch you can feel your legs push and for me that’s how I keep my rear tire all the way to the lip. Thanks pinkbike
Explaining the physics, the forces and the intention of the technique makes it very clear. Now I just need to find talent at my age! Best video on jumping ever IMO.
I think you've finally put the information in the 72 other jumping videos I've watched into one digestible set of instructions, in the how to pop section, you finally explained that parts I know I'm doing wrong, instead of just saying how to do it right. Now to go find a proper jump as bike parks are closed :(
Agree, one of the best jumping videos out there. I really love how the mistakes are broken down. Also the comment on different angle of leaning back based in the steepness of the jump, so helpful. I’m trying to learn to jump in my 40s and it’s so true that my fellow riders that jumped bmx as kids have no real idea they just send it beautifully. Thank you.
i’ve watched this video a ton of times and finally got it so i went out at my local trails and i’m clearing and hitting jumps i couldn’t before perfectly, thanks.
Ben, great vid, and great series. I found this after my shoulder surgery. I can't wait to get on my bike and put these vids to use. You do an excellent job breaking down the skills. I love to ride but can't wait to go faster and smoother.
Best jumping video ever done. Seriously we have seen them all. I manage to jump comfortably on some jumps but on the steep ones i nose divided and now i finally understand why.
LOVELY video!!! I like how in the end you stated that those that do it well mostly have NO clue how they are doing it. SO true!!! But some of us need to see this tech detail so we can confidently go experience those jumps and adjust, knowing the 'right' path! Thanks for producing this good stuff!
As a beginner jumper, it's not always clear why certain things happen when I try to jump and this video goes over most or all of the mistakes I've made. Very helpful!
Awesome series! Really entertaining, digestible, well filmed and edited. Particularly liked the physical explanations and diagrams as to why certain moves can go wrong on the bike. Thanks Ben and PB!
A fantastic,realistic,completed explanation of mountain bike! The perfect rules to mix all ingredients to make the best mountain bike for us!!! Thank you!!! You are real number 1!👑🙏
This whole series has been amazing, really excited for the second. @Ben, what would be really helpful is to have epesode where you help an individual (or two) with the same techniques from this series, so we can see this on a volunteer.😁 Also I'm happy to volunteer for jump and corners training on video. 🤞🙏. This video had several subtle but VERY useful hints about how it feels, sometimes it's tough to get it right without seeing your self riding, so knowing the description of how it feels is super helpful to carry to the trail.
This is by far the "best" how-to-jump video I´ve watched. And I watched them all ;) Many thanks, I can´t wait to try it, once the weather gets better...
This video series is a masterpiece - I'd watch the work of Cathro and the team on pretty much any topic. Also this got me really excited to head down to try some jumps at Cathkin Braes, so thank you again :)
2022, the year of the jump! I turned 60 last friday and I am determined to jump this year. I have ridden since I was 6, but never got into jumps and stunts. Videos like this will be a great help. I think a lot of it is just start small and keep jumping until it clicks. Self video and replay should help. Might start a channel....'200 days of learning to jump' or something. I also assume I will crash and burn a few times, but that is no big deal, been there done that. - Cheers

Great series, maybe add a part 11 on climbing?
What a gold series! Best in YT
This is quite possibly the best, most detailled and comprehensive "how to jump" video out there. Well done.

@@lonelymtbrider3369 yes totally agree
Agreed it's just a lot of information to remember
This is probably the best I have come across. Just to mention another good one is kyle and aprils videos was quite helpful aswell.
Someone is KILLING IT on the video editing for this series. That, in conjunction with Ben's way of describing what he's thinking, is so easy to follow
Seriously feel like I've picked up a ton in this series. Thanks for producing them.
Same here ^
This by far is the best tutorial episode and series for bike jumping on the net. Ben’s has a relaxing easy style, solid grasp of physics,biking kit and his ability to explain everything that’s relative.

Congrats PB, and cathro! Best bike series i've seen!
We are ready for red bull rampage next year.
I already feel an emptyness....Season 2 should be with even more Ben! :)
Ben is incredible. what a score that PB landed him.
That nugget about tension between the pedal and handlebar makes a lot of sense
Can we get Ben his own clinic? This is the best how to bike series on RUclips.
Best instructional MTB series, bar none
Best explained how to jump video I’ve seen. Jumping has been my nemesis for a while now, I’ve never been able to pin point what I’m doing wrong but now I know. Cathro you are a Don. Man I wish I booked a coaching course with you years ago when I had the chance.
shout out to ben for doing all these improper examples
I love that you can tell that he is really progressing the meaning of these mtb terms and thinking about what they really mean, not just using other vids as his research.
Also, make sure you have enough air in your rear tire or you can easily squish out to one side or another when really pumping the take off….Learned the hard way.
give this man a Price!

Cathro at Cathkin. Love it.
Respect to Ben ! He jumps for this video so many times bad, to show us, how not to jump! And he did jump bad, without crashing! That’s a skilled rider😁🤙🏻
Giving this a like to get closer to the 5k mark. Need more videos of Cathro being Cathro!
Probably the most comprehensive and easy to understand series on how to ride! Explains all the things a rider might be concerned about! Awesome!
One of the best "easy to understand" how to jump video.
Best MTB skills tutorial on YT hands down. Great work!
It'd be really cool for each season of How to Bike to focus on more advanced skillsets each time, so as new riders get more skilled the videos do as well
Big props to Ben, the Team and Pinkbike for discribing perfeclty in this series what its all about
The section at 11:40 about centering your mass over the rear wheel is something I’ve never heard before and explains well how to prevent that forward rotation. Bravo lads!
Man I love this guy! Super excited to hear season 2 is coming!!
After years of watching different videos,tvis series is really the best. Like "forget about all that" and explores every option and outcome. 👏
Best biking series ever. I feel like its a free 1 on 1 with him.
Thanks Ben, Max and Glen for an awesome series on how to bike. Learned a lot. Now we wait for the full length bloopers reel. :)
would love to see a video of how to move the front/back end independently of each other(whips, scandi flicks, some corners, etc.)
thanks for whole series :)
Thks is the most in depth 'How to Jump' video out there. Even I know how to jump decently well, I do not realise my techniques or mistakes and why this or that happened in the air till now. I definitely will be more aware of my body position now and will try all variations mentioned. Ben you're a legend 😍
videos like this is worth gold for people who want to be over-prepared or do a lot of theorycrafting before trying something new
Ben starting this video with some fire. Hoping to see more content from u in pink bike
Honestly the best instructional video about what not to do by far
Amazing work Ben and Pinkbike! These videos are my MTB bible! Any chance we can get a bike check from Ben on that Tallboy? He kills it with that bike!
BEST HOW TO VIDEO/TUTORIAL EVER!!!!! SERIOUSLY, plenty of slow mo, explained well. I’ve been riding a long time. I’ve watched literally every video out there.

Where before I was having to pin it. Now I go “trail speed” and it’s so much easier and feels better. After a few days it became natural and I wasn’t thinking about it.
CHEERS MR CATHRO. Not only did you help a regular guy out. But I’m getting laid ALOT more.
One thing is to watch these series being a complete newb awaiting his bike to be shipped. Watching this after actually done some riding is whole another experience.
Now I understand all described mistakes and appreciate how much into details these series dig. Cheers Ben!
Ben is BY FAR the best bike instructor i have ever seen, so casual yet precise and technical. I love it!
Absolutely the best "how to jump" video on yt, and I've watched 100 of them.
yeah i've watched a ton of "how to jump" vids and eventually I figured out how to jump. This video, Hands down is the best i've ever seen, thank you!!! this is awesome, I wish this had been out there when I was getting started on jumps.
Brilliant series! Definitely learned a lot! Now to find some time to actually practice it all … Highly recommended your series to some other beginner friends who also found your videos super useful, informative and well presented! And funny most of all :) Looking forward to season 2! If you are ever planning on giving lessons at Nevis Range again I’ll be the first to sign up ;)
Thumb up before actually watched it... This whole series is awesome. Thanks 👍
Did not think this would work on steep jumps but it does. The key for me was the small manual part. If you go and barely lift a manual I mean 1/2 inch you can feel your legs push and for me that’s how I keep my rear tire all the way to the lip. Thanks pinkbike
Best tip videos, Best trainer, sick editing, sick filming. Learnt loads from these
Hope you will reach the 5000 like really fast! Can’t wait to watch the bunny up episode…
Explaining the physics, the forces and the intention of the technique makes it very clear. Now I just need to find talent at my age! Best video on jumping ever IMO.
Best jumping video ever created in the history of RUclips. Hands down! Well done guys
Best video ever! A Ben Cathro how to jump vid at the local 🥳🥳
I think you've finally put the information in the 72 other jumping videos I've watched into one digestible set of instructions, in the how to pop section, you finally explained that parts I know I'm doing wrong, instead of just saying how to do it right. Now to go find a proper jump as bike parks are closed :(
Agree, one of the best jumping videos out there. I really love how the mistakes are broken down. Also the comment on different angle of leaning back based in the steepness of the jump, so helpful. I’m trying to learn to jump in my 40s and it’s so true that my fellow riders that jumped bmx as kids have no real idea they just send it beautifully. Thank you.
Maybe my favourite MTB series on RUclips! I loved every minute and hope to see more Ben Cathro on the channel
Nailed it! Thanks for the great vids! Back at it after a 20 year hiatus and never learned how to jump properly. This is extremely helpful!
The Top Master of jumping technics. My respect !!!
I will be watching and re watching all the videos in this series for the next few months! Looking forward to progressing some skills!
i’ve watched this video a ton of times and finally got it so i went out at my local trails and i’m clearing and hitting jumps i couldn’t before perfectly, thanks.
Ben, great vid, and great series. I found this after my shoulder surgery. I can't wait to get on my bike and put these vids to use. You do an excellent job breaking down the skills. I love to ride but can't wait to go faster and smoother.
Cathro is absolute best. I love every video with him.
This is the best mountain bike series I have ever seen - thanks so much!
Once again, Cathro has done it! Best how to jump video online. thanks for this and the whole series. loved it.
Best jumping video ever done. Seriously we have seen them all. I manage to jump comfortably on some jumps but on the steep ones i nose divided and now i finally understand why.
Absolutely. There are only a handful of channels that I feel really make useful skill videos on RUclips, and even among them ben Cathro is next level.
LOVELY video!!! I like how in the end you stated that those that do it well mostly have NO clue how they are doing it. SO true!!! But some of us need to see this tech detail so we can confidently go experience those jumps and adjust, knowing the 'right' path! Thanks for producing this good stuff!
Thank you ben. I've learned alot with your videos specially on how to bike videos. Hoping for season 2.
Last words are so true. I have no clue what am I doing unless someone records me. Good one!
Best , most down to earth , jumping video on RUclips!
Yeah! It's Ben again.
Refreshing guidance.
Always build lips at least 3 bike lengths long. Landings need to be at least twice the size. Once again quality free content!
Can't say enough good things about this series
Sir Ben is always good at his presentations/explanations.
As a beginner jumper, it's not always clear why certain things happen when I try to jump and this video goes over most or all of the mistakes I've made. Very helpful!
Awesome series! Really entertaining, digestible, well filmed and edited. Particularly liked the physical explanations and diagrams as to why certain moves can go wrong on the bike. Thanks Ben and PB!
A fantastic,realistic,completed explanation of mountain bike! The perfect rules to mix all ingredients to make the best mountain bike for us!!!
Thank you!!! You are real number 1!👑🙏
amazing series, amazing ability to convey so much information and not over explain at the same time. adding my 1 of 5000 :D
Loved this whole series! Learned the race jump style in this is how I tend to jump!
This whole series has been amazing, really excited for the second.
@Ben, what would be really helpful is to have epesode where you help an individual (or two) with the same techniques from this series, so we can see this on a volunteer.😁
Also I'm happy to volunteer for jump and corners training on video. 🤞🙏.
This video had several subtle but VERY useful hints about how it feels, sometimes it's tough to get it right without seeing your self riding, so knowing the description of how it feels is super helpful to carry to the trail.
Loving Ben's content. Thanks Ben and production crew.
This is by far the "best" how-to-jump video I´ve watched. And I watched them all ;) Many thanks, I can´t wait to try it, once the weather gets better...
This video series is a masterpiece - I'd watch the work of Cathro and the team on pretty much any topic. Also this got me really excited to head down to try some jumps at Cathkin Braes, so thank you again :)
2022, the year of the jump! I turned 60 last friday and I am determined to jump this year. I have ridden since I was 6, but never got into jumps and stunts. Videos like this will be a great help. I think a lot of it is just start small and keep jumping until it clicks. Self video and replay should help.
Might start a channel....'200 days of learning to jump' or something.
I also assume I will crash and burn a few times, but that is no big deal, been there done that. - Cheers
This series sets a new standard on doing how to videos. Very comprehensive and super entertaining!
Refreshing on these as the bike park season starts this Thursday. Thanks!
Por lejos el mejor video de “how to jump” que he visto… inteligente y con una edición genial. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
