Jumping is all about data and progression. Well, I guess there's a decent amount more than that but you need to start somewhere. My best advice is start at a spot that you are somewhat comfortable with and that is hopefully a tabletop or close to it. I'm also assuming you've watched the 7 Common Jumping Mistakes video already:
• 7 Common Jumping Mista...
Get the first few elements dialed and put yourself in a solid position to start working on the timing on the take off. Be patient and come in slowly to start. It's key to work up methodically with the speed you're traveling in space AND the speed with which you drop down and open up your body. Also remember that I feel you need to come in standing somewhat tall so you can drop down into that athletic position WITH YOUR HIPS and create that pre load.

Best "jumping basics" video on RUclips yet.
Heck yeah Alex, I have to agree with ya ;)
You're the man Rich! Can't wait to come to Bville and ride with you!
Thanks dude!! We need to make a Bville trip happen REALLY SOON!!
My two favorite teachers yeaaaaa.
Heeeey Kyle! So you know this guy, okay time to subscribe 👍
@@choanlpoto I was thinking the same thing. As an "experienced" rider who never concerned himself with the How I was (or wasn't) doing things, I have watched these two creators and their videos quite a bit, and it's helped me so much to progress and develop as a competent rider. I'm slowly transforming into a competent rider, and not a courageous hucker, which is saving my body from the impact of what I call trail tutoring (crashing).
The fact that Im an Ozarks local and now I have something nearby to ride (Bentonville) is really encouraging, which makes me look forward to my holidays all the more.
rofl, I just finished your video on how to jump and comparing it to Rich's, and I saw your comment!
I literally watched this video and went to the trail to session two small jumps back to back. I broke down my failures with your descriptions and left super stoked because I was able to name my mistakes and correct them. Nailed both several times. Rock on!
That's awesome!! Pumped to hear this!
So well explained. I think everyone gets obsessed with pulling hard with the arms, and that always seems to end with guaranteed instability in the air because you never quite pull perfectly aligned. This is spot on.
Well done Rich and thanks to Jenifer for putting her self out there. Loved you comment about being open to be coached.
THANK YOU for not having all the commercials other have. I left them. :)
Ha ha ha! You are welcome, Scott
I love how you teach someone while doing the video it really helps because I often make the same mistakes as them 👍
I love hearing this Mongo! It's a fun way to do it and I think it helps people absorb the information better.
Yeah I agree left a sub
3rd time watching this particular episode. Finally clued into the ‘driving your heels’ as a core body movement and not just my legs.
That's great feedback for future vids, thank you!
Awesome! This is probably the best tutorial that I’ve watched on that elusive timing. Adding more slowmo views of the loading-to-open transition would take it up a notch. Thanks Rich!
We will add in some more slo mo Joseph!
Rich Drew awesome! Thanks again for a great how-to.
One of your best videos so far Drew. Having a student that could be coached from that level up to feeling comfortable really gave you the opportunity to explain jumping in a way that really helped. Well done to both you and your student. Would love to see her again in a month or more and see how she has improved.
Thanks Donal!! It was a fun video to make and Jennifer is a rad chick! This template really works because it's as real as we can make it. I'll see if we can get her back in a bit.
Very impressive for 6 months! Rich, always positive and encouraging. Well done on both sides.
Best explanations ever, my take - heels down are an input that translate up to where the core/torso will be going (the desired direction vs opposite) and the bike will follow.
Thanks Tim! Your take is spot on my man.
I did all your inputs and i did my very first takeoff from the ground. I am ready to say I AM STOKED !!!!
HECK YES Sherwin!! So cool to hear this!
Hey Rich, just wanted to reach out and say thanks for these videos. I'm local to Bentonville and got into the Mountain Biking scene recently. Our crew (of absolute beginners) actually bumped into you and Parker at the Ravine trail and Ozone last Saturday while y'all were filming. Anyhow, I am sure we'll run into each other again at some point (hopefully soon!). More power to you, sir!
Hey there! Thanks for this feedback, so great to hear! No doubt we will run into each other again soon.
Let me add a comment now.... your series has really helped me.. last week we cleared, with steeze, an 18ft table (biggest jump yet) and today the same one and 2x steep faced jumps... wish I could show you the clips... Keep it up dude
I love it Shane!! So cool to hear this!
I have watched a ton of how to jump videos and this one is by far the best, you really broke it down well thank you
Woo! Hoo! I'm excited and nervous! lol! See you Saturday : )
Just be excited Rene!
Great video. LOVE the detailed, step-by-step break down. Watching videos on other channels, I come away with questions. You anticipate the questions and answer them before I can think of them. Nice work!
Thanks Ron! I was happy with how this one came out.
I definitely need to catch a ride series. I crashed hard earlier in the week. It was a 5ft drop. Everything felt good until I crashed. I'm so glad I was wearing my pads.
Learned a lot,mtb biker from the philippines
Awesome tutorial. Bentonville is amazing. Went in 2019. I will catch one of your clinics next time we go. For the love of God, please tell this girl to get long finger gloves, a proper jersey (like one of yours), some baggy shorts, and some proper MTB eyewear!
I'd love to have you at a clinic soon! I'll get her sorted, trust me.
What's wrong with her shorts and shirt? Don't baggy shorts catch on the saddle and risk accidents? I use shorts (along w/ my biking shorts) that are tight in the crotch area so they don't snag on the saddle. I have zero issues with them. Also, why a jersey? I use moisture wicking T-shirts. Although they dry quicker than cotton shirts they are still drenched in sweat when I'm done riding. Do jerseys keep from getting drenched with sweat? If so, i may buy one to try out.
Awesome video...there are some great MTB RUclips channels out there but I'm not sure any of them bring as much value as this one does...if ppl watch and apply these techniques, they WILL IMPROVE!!! Trust me 😉
Thanks Ty! Excited to get back on soon, need that energy!
Wow Rich, you break it down and explain it so well. If only I could have watched this video 20 years ago 😂 Thanks for sharing the knowledge dude!
Thanks dude!! Let's jump in the Delorean and make it happen!!
I’ll bring the Flux.
Lifting with my arms has been my biggest challenge... takes daily practice... great video Sir!
I have just saved your video in my playlist where I keep good instruction videos that I wanna share with beginners of my fb group. I guess that says everything. Thanks for the effort and upload!
You're amazing! The way you explain in detail..
Thank you Saygin! I’m glad you liked it.
Watched this again going to concentrate more next try
Amazing Rich, I learned a lot from this video, from the mistakes of her and the perfect way of coaching of you, step by step, lot of my previous confusion got cleared up here through this video. hope to see more video like this with a student like this who makes mistakes and then follow instruction and correct herself, that gives us opportunity to learn, by pausing, slowing down play back speed of the video.subscribed and liked.
Great explanation, i´m in right now...
Love these how to videos! Was just hitting those same jumps on All American today!
Such a cool spot isn't it Luke?
Thanks for that video, really helpfull ! 👍 Rich, at 17:08, when it's happen to me, i always do a self high five 👏🤭. I love the way you teach riding🤘Grettings from France !
thank you, so helpful as i learn on my own!
You are very welcome!
Hey Rich, you are a great teacher! I would benefit from content with more slow mo and lines/ sketches. Pointing out errors and remedies directly from the action. Great work!
Best in the business Rich!!
Thanks Paul!! Love this type of feedback!
Love your vids, especially these ones where you can see real life progression. You need come and do some classes in the UK.
Thank you Rizwan! I'd love to get out there someday
Like i've said before you are a great instructor
Thanks Big Wes, I appreciate that man!
Very detailed and informative Rich! Gosh! Man, I wish ur in Southern Cal...A great one🤘
Thanks Serpent 🤘🏻
Really helpful, my jumping game is improving.
Heck yeah!! glad I can help!
Amazing tips mate. Can't wait to hit the trails tomorrow and try to put some of that theory into practice. Just started mountain biking this summer and am committed to learning how to jump before winter set's in!
Fingers crossed!-)
Rich has done it again!
Great video!
thanks Curtis!
Great video. I have to focus more on the heels. I take this to also mean the heels are down as you're pushing through? getting the torso back has been the hardest part of the method to follow for me.
nice coaching sir…i learned a lots…hope i can jump soon.
Hella sick! U go gurl!
This is the video I needed. Now I can shred like it was 1990... 😆 lol
Another great video Rich! A few buddies and I will be coming up there Nov. 11-15th to enjoy riding those awesome trails. Maybe we'll run into you out there.
Heck yeah Joey, you guys will have a blast!
Awesome, I'm looking forward to the first, getting my hips ready.
Some good advice here
Great instructional vid dude. sgona be great for my jumpin style Yo
🔥🔥🔥🔥🚀 thank you Rich 🤙
Very informative, thank you!
You are very welcome Alex!
Such a great video. 🤙🤙
Cool, lot to think of 😊 Good points 👍😊
Thanks Tony!
It was cool running into you. OZ was amazingly fun!
You too Dave! OZ is a killer place!
Great video Rich. Ride On!
Awesome teaching, thanks man! And thank you for not talking about the « bunny hop », which start with a manual whereas jumps do not. (unless you want to try a backflip?)
What a great video just subscribed i have been riding for along time xc, trail centres, natural stuff, red, some blacks & blue trails and have a youtube channel but need to work on my jumping skills as i have started to go to Bike Parks in the UK. This video is perfect for looking at how to take off to get air on jumps and table tops. 👍
Love this!!! More pls!!!
Nicely done Jennifer! I want in on the Steeze Class! 😜
I hope one day you come to pa!! I’d love to take any class you’d offer lol I love your videos !
Heels down, load into the base not the face...
but Trailbikes did teach me something... Your more likely to do damage jumping than most other tricks...
I managed to stay out of hospital for my 1st 20 odd years of motorbikes (until a week before my 40th.. but that was high siding on a fairly flat paddock) but the next one was a double that I completed 95%... the last 5% was the top of the 2nd bump that kept the bike from completing the jump with me...
I guess where I'm going with that is... Jumps are fun... Knowing how to jump and land... important... but don't forget... You don't NEED to do big jumps if your having issues.
Find a nice small un complicated jump.. and jump the heck out of it until its so easy its boring... then move up a little.
I actually did my 1st gap today.. but I still avoid them in the wild... because I can. Single to flat or tabletop, a lot easier... and a lot more forgiving if messed up....
I've got a lot more messing up before I'll ever be confidant on doubles... but hey I'm just out for fun.
I agree completely!! This is a smart way to go about it. Keeping yourself in a position to keep building confidence is key. Keep it up Butler!
@@richdrewtherideseries and hey, they just graded my fav track in Wellington (NZ) Makara Peak 'Peak Flow'...
Added a little double at the top (grrrr) but I did it (a 1st on MTB 4 me) and a lot of other rollable single (near mini table) jumps .. Lot of fun... I'll stick it in my vids in a few days but with a chest mount there's not much to see... (and it was set low.. sigh)..
Heels down.... (oh and I'm thinking my Giant (medium) may be just a little short... shame I didn't get the bolt on longer droppers that came with the 2010 faith... Maybe I'll make some.)
Awsome content thanks
You are very welcome!
Simply awesome...
Sounds like I might be pulling the bars sometimes still. 100% of my jump crashes have been dumping to the right, and most have been due to tilting to the right side and landing tilted, and I probably dead-sailored midair due to recognition that I was coming down tilted, and that probably didn't help
Nice bikes!
Thank you for making great vids
COME TO AUSTRALIA !!! We're waiting mate🤙🇦🇺
I'd love to James! Gonna do everything I can to make the TRS World Tour happen.
I think you just explained the fundamental movement and timing that tends to get lost in translation
Great video Rich! Positivity is key! How do we sign up for lessons? Thanks
I'm not a new rider, I've been fkin around on two wheels since I'm 6 yrs old and at 40 I have my bad habits but I never took any courses or bike clinics, not that the explanations don't make sense but geezus that's waaay too dense and too much info. That's why I ditched skiing. I just go on feel I can't overanalyze what I do I just improve when things don't work out 😂
Sweet Chanel dude 🤟🏻🤟🏻 its like 21.13 here in England and I want to go rip it up 😜😜🤟🏻
Rich. Whats up bro. Rich on the 12 minute You talk about not to pull with the arms and I learned the hard way in the past. Now, what have I never understood is when to use the bunny hop technique on jumps because even though I am not not pulling the bar the actual move of the bunny hop makes the bar comes to my waist. When I do the bunny hop on a flat ground It comes out perfect but If do It on jumps It seems that I am pulling the bar and I land awkward. So, Is it possible to put out a video putting together the jumping and bunny hop technique?
Hey Miguel! Man, that’s a tough one to answer, but I’ll see what I can do.
Maybe try driving your heels down longer on the takeoff. Essentially your arms will end up relatively straight once you are coming off the takeoff.
Man good stuff! I have a hard tail, will these same principles still apply? I'm still confused about driving your heels as I pedal just forward of my arch on the pedals. I'll keep working on it though. Thanks peace out!
Get all of it, however not sure how pushing through heels help tip the bike forward? Can you explain (or point to a link) for this part?
Hey Chris! Pushing through the heels keeps the bike in an upward trajectory longer, the bike will roll forward as the feet roll forward and toes point down. Gravity and Physics also help this out ;)
@@richdrewtherideseries that makes sense. Thanks. Love the channel by the way.
So, yes a few weeks ago Abbie(my 16 year old) and I were riding some of the jump lines at San Lee in NC. We both have had some progression with air from watching your videos. But we both said the same thing after a run with a dozen or so tables. We said we landed the transition on every other one and came up short on every other one. Looking at this I think we were both just trying to go to fast and were screwing up the timing. Each time we cased it slowed us down so we hit the next one good. Work in progress. Hopefully we see you on the trails in Bentonville in April.
Hey Rich, should i start learning how to do this on flats? im usually clipped in but i dont attempts jumps/drops much yet. i think its more of a mind games thing being clipped in. i want to go to your clinic really bad i need to to come to texas in like july/august haha
Can you do a progression session on drops? I've watched your drop videos many times and they still scare me.
Great video Rich those points really work but one time my back wheel came up high and I almost went OTB. Do you know what I did wrong ?
When does the ride series come to OK?
I have probs with a series of 2 pump rollers in between 2 doubles on a flatish section, could you do something on roller pumping technique / getting max speed from landings ?
Hey Richard! Planning on doing that type of video very soon my man!
So..I've been working on jumps for a year now, and I still can't get it right. People tell me I pop too early. How can I fix this? I always think I'm about to ride right off the lip and that I'm popping off last second, but then when I watch a video of myself, I'm definitely going too early. Please help.
Hey Duke! That’s a tough one for sure. Try slowing your “pop” down a bit and see if that helps.
@@richdrewtherideseries I'll keep trying. Thanks.
Thanks for this amazing videos. Question: i really have bad time doing 6ft/8ft kicker jumps when the jump is after a downhill section or comming from a drop landing. It have to be flat a few meters for me before entering the jump to prepare my timing and make it work. Cant make my timing correct no matter i try if the surface is not flat as i mention. Its like my body can adjust the position if im comming from a landing and go up to another jump.
I don't see any upcoming clinics on The Ride Series website
She looks very much like a Jennifer Ward I grew up with. Hmmmm??? Good job!
Too many minds
Sooooooooooo, when can I come to get a lesson? Been waiting forever 🙂
Can I possibly ride with you one day? I'm new to NWA area and photography guy name Jason told me about you! Thanks, are you free Saturday?
What about the real big jumps? Do you let the bike preload naturally?
I wish they taught this in college.
Does drive through the heels mean push heels down so that toes are pointed upwards?
Good question. I'd like to know too!
How to I find out about getting some of these lessons one on one?
Next do a video on how to ditch the bike mid air.
haha! You gonna guest star in that one Roman?
Rich Drew challenge accepted!
You willing to coach me? I live close to bentonville and I’m fairly new. Maybe 4 months or so of riding
It looks so easy….😅
I didnt finish watching the video.. did she learnt or no?
I think so
I'm a "work in progress"! (this is Jennifer). I will say that when I don't jump correctly it's because I'm not doing something Rich taught me. If I could do EVERYTHING he taught me ALL the time, I'd be a pro ;)
@@ChoiceSlides very well done Jennifer I am learning myself I didn't finish the video as I was at work now I have watched completely now and I se you did great, keep riding and Rich keep teaching us thanks!
She didn't seem very stoked
I agree 🤷🏻♂️
Another great video! Love how often you use women to demo.
thank you! Jennifer is awesome!
Be the ball, Danny.
So, as I continue to watch, I see that (despite what the nice officer said) it really IS okay to stand behind trees and watch chicks go by?!?!
Just get in touch with the force in the universe that makes things happen
@@richdrewtherideseries I like you, Betty.
5 minutes of great Info!
But drawn out over 20 minutes. Maybe less jawing and more Freeze frame with graphics would be helpful. "Toes up" makes sense. "Lean back" would makes sense. But "Drive thru your heels"?? Self-explanatory phrases are always better.
Video starts at 5:54
Seriously?? Silly me for thinking it starts at 0:01 ;)
