Remember, popping doesn’t always send you further. If a lip has less than a 45 degree angle 📐, then popping will send you further. With lips that are steeper than a 45 degree angle 📐, popping boosts you backwards. Think about a quarter pipe. If you want to air back it, you pop to land back in the pipe, but if you want to air out of it, you have to scrub the lip so you don’t go back into the quarter pipe. This applies to most step ups and steeper lipped dirt jumps.
I've been riding for around a year and a half now (started at age 36 - now 38). Been progressing nicely, doing bigger jumps, drop-offs, flatter fairly large gap jumps, enduro trails, etc. But what still freaks me out on bigger jumps is that feeling of going high into the air, then coming down nose first (that floating, OTB feeling), something i mentally need to work on.
If you're at this stage of progressing further and higher then I fully recommend Phoenix Cycle Works in Suffolk, just near Newmarket. So good for progression and repetition for all standards.
Man! I was watching this in Spanish class because we have no teacher and I could just feel the nerves at the start! This is my dream one day, and it inspires me that William started at age 17 and is here now because I started at 12 and feel like it was too late to get good.
Good to see gmbn making something for more advanced riders. There's a lot of content like "how to bunny hop" etc, which is definitely a good thing, but seeing stuff that's aimed at people who are past that stage and wanting to go bigger etc is wicked. 'how to flip' next video? Lol
I've wrote this often but don't do run ins, go around and check the landing, walk on it. Multiple run ins are your worst enemies they'll take your confidence by the hand promising candy, when the run ins gang gets you into the windowless van you're done, no candies. ☠️
One thing i have learnd your never going to fast for any jump the time you feel your going to fast and hit your breaks you come up short on the gap and it hurts
Okay, so I have an issue on one jump in a jump line I do regularly. I'm a beginner with jump lines but Ive been trail riding all my life. Maybe someone can chime in as to what I am doing wrong. All of the other jumps I do are table top style but two of them are more like high humps. For some reason on one of the jumps the bike is tending to pull away from me, forwards over the jump, like it wants to get away from me, but I always hold on and clear the jump with my butt seemingly past the rear wheel. I doubt it looks right and it doesnt feel right. I feel like I am always getting yanked over this jump. Maybe I need to 'pop' more on this jump so I intend to go more 'up' off the jump? The jump is shaped liked a camel hump so I wonder if i am not leaving the hump properly. I am clipped in on my ride so if I wasnt, I wonder if my feet would leave the pedals on this jump? Does any of this sound familiar enough to anyone?

Nah you push thru while popping outta quarterpipe.
Cheers bro this helped me today and no one’s ever said it

I feel like "pushing through" means scrubbing though.
@@wreck-creation scrubbing is like dropping sideways over a table. Do that out of a 9 ft bowl with vertical and tell me how it works for you

More slow mo shots from the side showing the take off would be helpful.

The Loam Ranger made in my opinion the best tutorials about jumping
Absolutely
Is that the step up to the jump guy?
@@Colg555 yup!
Thank you for including the mental aspect, and going at it with confidence!
Just landed my first 6ft high/12ft length launch on a hardtail 29er today, cheers Rich! 🥳🥳🥳
No link to the jumping basics video??
Rich,cheers mate great vlog as always.Theres always something we can take away to help us with our riding.
Very good one Rich! Thanks!
Good video, very informative!
Nice video RIch!!! It´d be cool if you make a video about how to start moving the bike in the air and adding flow...

My Tipps: Stand Up, trick and then dip in the landing

Im not very good at jumps. So I slow down my rear rebound for bigger jumps. Stops me bucking
This helped a lot

Too much waffle.
