THIS IS HOW YOU GO BIGGER ON A MOUNTAIN BIKE!

  • This is how you go bigger on a mountain bike! I attach a huge wing to my back and see if I can go bigger on my enduro MTB! Before discovering this new sport I hit some sick kicker ramp spots and send bangers, would you try this?
    I just got a load of new Wing foiling gear and it clicked into my mind that if I connect this wing to my back then I might be able to hit jumps on my MTB and fly even further with this huge thing attached to my back!! Before my mind sparks and creates this new sport I head out on my enduro bike and find a perfect spot to scrape in a landing ramp on the side of the road. After making this landing I put up an MTB hopper ramp and create a huge gap jump to go big on. A few jumps and tricks later it was time to move on to the next spot that we squeeze in before creating this new ridiculous sport with the massive wing foil kite! What do you think about this, should I take this new invention further?
    I hope you enjoy the video!

    You'll get much more lift when you attach yourself to one of the middle straps of the kite-thing. You'll know it works if it creates some drag when pedaling without wanting to flip.
    Keep attaching one strap further back until it starts wanting to flip. Then attach to the last one that didn't make it flip: that's your best attachment point

    Wing biking looks awesome!! I wonder if it would be more suited to a drop rather than a kicker, as when you take off and go up, the wing looks kinda like it's pushed down a bit.
    Also wonder if it would be good to have a strap from either grip out further on the wing, rather than one central, to try and hold it a bit more steady 🤔

  • @rydenkaye9735
    @rydenkaye9735 2 года назад +2

    If you want this to really work you gotta have a line to keep tension on the back of the kite to force it to maintain a good angle of attack. You can see it fluttering when you do the jump which means you’re getting next to no bonus lift from it. Basically it’s gotta be slanted relative to the direction the air is moving like an airplane wing, without a line at the back it will naturally go to flat like a flag on a pole

  • @petrokemikal
    @petrokemikal Год назад +1

    The wing needs to be rigid mounted somehow to your back otherwise by the time it generates lift your already 3/4s of the way through the jump.. Also finding its centre of gravity is critical for it to actually lift anything, if the angle of attack of the wing is too high or low, it wont work much at all...
