These are the first moves I learnt after track stand. Looking back, it took me quite a while to master these basic moves but it came without notice while I was practicing other more tricky moves.
Mate. The production quality of your videos has reached a new high. The camera. The Lens. The lighting. It is truly incredible and that for sure keeps your brain engaged watching the video attentively. Congrats.
Loving all this trials on a mountain bike content because many people (myself included) aren't lucky enough to have a proper trials bike and are just using there mtb bike instead. Great work!
@@SuperRiderTV I tried these hops today for the 1st time, I was only able to hop the front wheel a few inches left and right. was able to only lift the back wheel some inches in the air (not left and right). also I tried doing both together (hops) but managed to get the chain stuck on the derailer 😅
I’be been working on this. I can do side, backward circular hop but hopping forward seems difficult (even unnatural) and I am sure what I am doing wrong.
Try getting ahead of the bike (over the bars) and pulling the bike up toward you. Just try to move it a little bit at a time, as you get more efficient with the movement, it’ll start moving farther with each hop. Practice makes progress! 👊
Thanks for the tip. I’ll keep working on it. Btw, I love all of your tutorial videos. I prob won’t be able to learn all of them before I die but I am trying and it’s just fun.
One thing that helped me is to use a full suspension bike to practice. Doing this for an hour with no cushion and poor technique is really hard on the body. Was able to spin 120 degrees today, but only to the left :| My goal is a 180 on rollers, like Brumotti.
Hi will these techniques work on an emb ,being quite a bit heavier. I want be able to ride up n over stuff on the trail instead of getting off and pushing.cheers Don.
Are the Diety you use on the Mountain bike the same rise as you use on STB? 80mm rise? My DJB frame is more similar to this bike than your other trial specific bikes. Ive experimented so much, I have 100-120 travel on a DJB frame. what rise handlebar would you recomend for learning.
Yeah - same handlebars on both bikes, just to stay consistent. I like having a higher rise bar when I'm practicing (or teaching) techniques - it gives me a ton of control. You might try the 80mm rise bars on your bike, just to see how it feels!
Try leaning the bike in the opposite direction when you load up for the hop. When you pull up on the bike, the motion of straightening the bike (from side to side) will create enough momentum to move it laterally! Sometimes I'll even trackstand with my front tire facing away from the direction I want to go. Check this video out, actually - there's some principles in here that will be helpful: ruclips.net/video/r5gfcBqbELQ/видео.html
Okay for all the bunny hop tutorials they never mentioned the importance of the scooping motion I'm gonna give that a try (also I literally have the same bike so no excuses for me haha)
@@SuperRiderTV Thank you, I'm practicing a little after my 40km rides, mainly on paved roads and some off-road trails. Gonna get me a riser bar coz that will make it a bit easier. As you said, practice makes progress. Progress boosts confidence and it also makes those muscles used for that particular trick stronger and install memory. So it all adds up bit by bit. It takes a lot of core strength to do some of these tricks, but mainly I think it's about winning over your fear and gaining confidence. Best regards and congrats for your channel 👍👍 Keep it up mate ☮️
@@SuperRiderTV yes those tips works, just need patience and practice, I am on rear pivots, front and rear lifts and few low bunny hops, I used to have 9 speed 11-46t the spacing is either too light or too heavy for pedal drop, I switched to 11 speed 11-42 maybe it would make pedal kick easier.
So awesome. You came to the right place! We do a livestream twice a week on Twitch if you ever want to ask questions and get direct input! Practice makes progress! 👊

How critical is it to master the track stand before attempting this skill? I'm asking because I see that you do not wobble around, but when I try it I'm unable to hold my balance from tipping over the side.
When I first started, I learned this before trackstands. However, that extra level of balance and bike control that comes from trackstanding will make this whole process easier. Not required, but helpful. I’ve got a trackstand video (“Trackstand Forever”) on this channel if you want to check it out!
@@SuperRiderTV I can gracefully trackstand like a pro, forever, even eyes closed… but not with my wheel straight. I can roll to a stop and keep the wheel straight, but as soon as I lose balance, that wheel automatically turns. How are you able to trackstand with the front wheel straight?
Lifting the front wheel up and putting it back down is how i do it. I can’t balance with the front wheel straight for more than a few seconds at a time before I have to lift it again. The “rocking” technique I mentioned was where it all comes from.
These are the first moves I learnt after track stand. Looking back, it took me quite a while to master these basic moves but it came without notice while I was practicing other more tricky moves.
These were some of my first moves, too! I think I learned them before trackstanding, which is kind of funny now that I think about it!

Thanks so much! My first video with the new camera! Still dialing it in a little bit, but excited to have it rolling! Stoked that you noticed! 🙏

❤You are my best “Coach”❤
Thanks!
Awesome video, I definitely need all the help I can get!!
Thanks so much, I hope it was helpful for you!
Спасибо за толковые объяснения, шикарные видео. 👍
Hopping my bike will help my in the technical sections like navigating the slow and densely packed human crowds
You are creating masters.
when I get to play whit the bike that way is just mastering.
Thanks bro.
Thank you!
Top session
🙌
Just discovered this channel, there aren't any bike trails nearby but I enjoy learning new tricks. Thank you!
Awesome!! Thanks so much for watching! I hope you like (and learn from) the rest of the videos on the channel! 🙌
@@SuperRiderTV I tried these hops today for the 1st time,

Practice makes progress! This is exactly how I started (and without access to any trails, too). Keep going, you got this! 🙌
good info :) thanks
Thanks for watching!
Do u brake both the front and rear wheels during the hopping?
Yes! Sometimes I’ll let off the back wheel slightly to adjust my pedals to keep them level - but for the main technique, it’s with both brakes.
God Bless you.

Thanks so much, I’m so glad you like them. The trying is what makes it all worthwhile - I still have tricks on my list that I haven’t gotten yet!
Hey! Super nice videos, could you do a video of foot position on trials?
Oh yeah, like how to choose your forward foot and stuff like that? Riding stance?
@@SuperRiderTV and also puting your foot foward on the pedal or a little bit backwards
you brought the best of riding bikes....
🙏
Nice

Absolutely - that extra weight won’t make it easier, but it is definitely possible to get it done.

I can now hop vertical while in trackstand. But I fail to initialize the lateral motition. Do you have a tip how to learn this movement ?
Try leaning the bike in the opposite direction when you load up for the hop.

My hardtail weighs around 14kg. Can I do this as well?
Absolutely!

How do yoy hop forward?
Here's a full video I made to explain that technique: ruclips.net/video/ajKfUbs_1w0/видео.html
What size tires do you use? I have 3” and I feel they are to much. I like how they roll into berms but not much else tbh
On this bike I’m riding a 2.4, but truthfully feel like I could get away with 2.3 or even a 2.2 with the right tread pattern!
