As a dirt jump builder in Denmark i am very happy to see you are learning people how to build and maintain the jumps.. I hope that someday all people will respect the builders hard work. cuz remember... no diggin, no ridin :) Thank you guys.. Blake, youre the man ;)
Man, as a Mid school BMX dirt jumper i have to say this. For a beginner jump that probably wont be used long, the logs are fine. For trails you want to use for a long time just use dirt. The logs break down over time and leave you with issues. Thank you for the vid. I just bought a dj mtb and plan on learning how to use it.
Absolutely quality tbh I remember being a young lad 10/11 tops and older lads laughing at me for piling mud into heaps and trying to jump it... Still did it I'm an old bloke now with kids and hope to show him this when he's Older
Top notch presenting and then to go and throw those tricks off such a small jump! Great vid for beginners and also fun and entertaining for advanced riders like myself🤘🏼
I built a 12 feet jump with my friends last week. It took us the whole day, but we were so proud and jumping it the first time was amazing... and sketchy.
I'm extremely jealous of how good dirt in this video is. I tried doing this and ended up having 50% of rocks and unusable soil. However, I won't quit until I have one completely ridable!
thankyou soooo much for starting to post building vids I live to build trails like those and it makes me super happy to see gmbn does too plz make more vids like this!!!
New to mtb. Found a sweet place out of the way. Some elderly boy was digging away solo so we got talking and i offered my help. Gave him a coke and some biscuits and learned a few valuable lessons. Taking some stiff brooms soon to help clear the trails and will hang them in the trees for others.
Is it a good idea for to build the jump, shape it etc, then add MORE logs and make that same jump bigger. I just got a new dirt jump bike which is Better for jumping than my XCM bike
If you are gonna build in public just find a spot that is hidden enough, my buddies and I have built a pump track right next to the street, and then we have some other bigger jumps tucked away,
the logs are a great idea, it actually makes it stronger and creates what is called engineered dirt... Breaks the sheer-line of the dirt and actually allows you to make it steeper than the sheer-line. In-fact, paper, grass, leaves, netting, etc will work. great for that too.
Really Nice Video Guys 💪🏼😉Please make more Videos of "How to build Jumps,Drops..."It's nice to see how to do this so you can do it yourself.Hope we see more of this:);)
digging the dirt all on the surface gives you all the fresh dirt and if you dig up the dirt in the shape of a small path around the jump you have a path for people who dont want to jump it
I was just about to post a question on beginner building guild and its already here :D Now that this is answers how to make your own trails? I'm from a costal city in India so only way is to make trails to practice first before I hit the mountains
That square shovel is for scraping the surface of the ground or transferring a pile of material When I was a kid, we had to dig holes to build dirt jumps. Only tool for that is a round shovel
ive been there lots of times cuz i live near there, unfortunatly your ramp isnt there anymore, sombody replaced it with a table top but i will admit its quite good
Dude that shovel is so not a spade it's square at the edge spades are well, pointy! That shovel is a tamper and a dirt mover not much of a digger that dirt must be amazingly soft! And those logs look pre cut more like an easter egg hunt of jump building haha really enjoyed the vid it had a very upbeat vibe.
Watched this 2 years ago. I am now building 20+ foot gaps and jumping super high because of this.
Congrats bro 🎉
I gotta pee
I need to do a number 1

Rumour has it blakes bike is still rolling away.
Lmfao

No it doesn’t because he stopped it

I like how Blake just busts out the tricks: no footer, can-can, and clapping no hander... on a slow, 2-foot high 4-foot long mellow jump. Mad boost!

Is that an inner tube at 2:50
Lol how did it managed to get up there
It was full of air, like when you blow a balloon and let it go. It goes frrrrrtttt up a tree.
Scott RC yes
yes
Scott RC d
it was faster because you had magical logs
Haha, so true
He forgot to add to his tool list
Spade saw and some extra hands XD
Ture

Division MT that must have been hard I live with a forest backyard so it is super hard to dig but finding wood is easy
The humor, the subject, the object, the content, its just perfect.
THANK YOU for this
Thanks! My back yard is quite small big enough for a decent berm and two features! Keep up the good work fellas!
you can also turn the hole where you got the dirt from into a jump
y t yeah, I don't know why more people don't do this.In the 80s, that's how I made my jumps.
Yeah you could make a little dip before it
That how me and my mates do it we dig a hole and put the takeoff and land on the sides
if you live in a wet place like I do, it will just become a pond
Three Trailbuilders that’s y u don’t bother 😂
I like how he's wearing his helmet the whole time. Safety first! 😂
That’s a great idea to wear ur helmet because if he falls he’s safe
L O G I C
😂
i also do this
I do that when I’m building
Me to
I actually wear a helmet when i build because it keeps bugs off my head better then a hat does. Bug spray doesn’t help btw
i know it imposible bcs u uploaded this video 1 minute ago but i watched the whole 7 minute video and i loved it
That dirt looks prime! Blake was just patting it into shape with ease!
Wish I had good dirt like that around my jumps 😂
I wish i had a good dirt bike too! Atleast 100cc...
same i’m from nevada and anything you find here is sandy
same
@@carsonplaysminecraft1018 dirt bike??
Same I have to bring multiple milk jugs of water just for a bit of moisture to my jumps
Top notch presenting and then to go and throw those tricks off such a small jump! Great vid for beginners and also fun and entertaining for advanced riders like myself🤘🏼
So glad you made this vid. Berm next?
4:16 Scotty in the back round doing a bike check on Blake’s dirt jumper.
The no-look bike grab was awesome @ 6:09. I think you're pretty awesome, dude.
Great video this is exactly what I was looking for, I live directly next to a creek in Australia and I can’t wait to build my jumps down there 🤙
Sammeeee, I’m building a trail at the moment
Awesome! So Good my 8 & 9 year old boys successfully built a jump with no help. Thanks!
Do more of that Build vids
5:35 that's what she said
Evan Mosson when me and my mates were making a ramp there was way too many of those jokes
ha
I built a 12 feet jump with my friends last week. It took us the whole day, but we were so proud and jumping it the first time was amazing... and sketchy.
Is that Scotty in the back ground at 4:16?
I like this, it's not like other dirt jump videos like step one have tons of private land and bobcats
do more building pls I like this very much
This i will use, Im thinking of stacking some wood pallets, what do you guys think in regards to wood pallets?
free wood
I'm extremely jealous of how good dirt in this video is. I tried doing this and ended up having 50% of rocks and unusable soil. However, I won't quit until I have one completely ridable!
how to make a drop off
NAME Yeah
DN who tf are u
DN who are you, stop pretending to be Blake, who are you?
GoPro And Gaming - don't worry, I have multiple accounts, check out my main @ Blake Samson
He's an imposter. Just ignore him.
How to make a trail? =D
Макс Камнев dig up the grass and ride on it a lot
i think the guy in the background at 4:00 is trying to get in the bike vault
Sven Van Wonterghem 😂😂
Sven Van Wonterghem who cares??
Maybe he found a trailblake that will give him a supernice
6:10 -> smooth
This helped a lot beacause me and my friend are building tracks and we were building the jumps way to small so the measurement helped
I love how animated you get when doing this. Thanks for the laughs!
Hi Blake, in the video it seems that you take the ramp with very slow speed. In that case are you doing a sort of bunny hop? Regards from Argentina.
Thanks for this vídeo!!!!
please do more of this digging videos!!👍🏼👍🏼
this helped so much, recently bought a marin mount vision 6 so gunna do it with that
The log tip is gold! 👍🏻
thankyou soooo much for starting to post building vids I live to build trails like those and it makes me super happy to see gmbn does too plz make more vids like this!!!
this is a wonderful idea and i have subscribed and would like to know how i could upgrade my full suspension genesis overkill 27.5 pro
should you pack down the landing aswell so its hard like the take off?
Thomas Ashcroft I would do. If the dirt is soft like in the video then yes pack it hard.
Thank you so much I'm developing my woods now loved this video and subscribed

but they rot and decompose over time and it ruins the dirt jump. this sadly comes from personal experience ;-;
Really Nice Video Guys 💪🏼😉Please make more Videos of "How to build Jumps,Drops..."It's nice to see how to do this so you can do it yourself.Hope we see more of this:);)
Where and what are these jumps? I've seen them in so many videos and they look so good. If someone could tell me that would me much appreciated.
Make a pump track in your backyard Blake! That would be awesome
Thanks Blake this really helped me I'm just a kid thanks so much
The timeless words of Blake, "if you wanna go more higher, you gotta build it taller."
:D love the fact you are building wearing your safety gear!
thanks so much you made me be able to build my first proper bike jump
I was waiting for vudeo like this, thumbs UP!
digging the dirt all on the surface gives you all the fresh dirt and if you dig up the dirt in the shape of a small path around the jump you have a path for people who dont want to jump it
Good video lads I will use the logs in my next build cheers
Does anybody notice they had to pre-dig the dirt for Blake?
I would have unsubscribed a long time ago if Blake didn't join GMBN. Keep these videos coming!
The first shovel is a transfer shovel. It is great for transferring material from one place to another.
Super Nice vid Blake.
Blake is about the greatest guy ever.
I was just about to post a question on beginner building guild and its already here :D
Now that this is answers how to make your own trails? I'm from a costal city in India so only way is to make trails to practice first before I hit the mountains
Can you do this in any woods
i love buckland rings dirt park, I go all the time.
great video.was looking forward to it
That is a shovel, not a spade!
DN no its blakes bad, not yours
lol
genious
is this guy being serious?
NoCommentate Most ironic comment on youtube haha.
Nice video. Wish it wasn't raining so much right now. Cheers.
amazing Video thanks😊👍
Make this a series how to build love this 👍👍👌
Wow I just came home from the woods ...We were building Huuge jumps and stuff..and then I saw this video... :)
Do more of these building vids.. so cool.
Damn, crazy how he can get a tuck no hander on such a small jump, ninja timing!
thanks so much for the tips
What about the rest of the trail features? I am working on a small track and am curious how you design the berms.
That square shovel is for scraping the surface of the ground or transferring a pile of material
When I was a kid, we had to dig holes to build dirt jumps. Only tool for that is a round shovel
i love it how they are doing a photo shoot of the bike in the background
works great in my shop and on road trips in my RV
my first jump was 6 meter long tabletop i didn't fell but landed nose heavy multiple times :q
glad that i have good adjusted suspension :D
The building part is fun
ive been there lots of times cuz i live near there, unfortunatly your ramp isnt there anymore, sombody replaced it with a table top but i will admit its quite good
Great video!
I keep hearing that your not meant to build jumps with logs in them because they rot?
Never had a problem, what about you guys?
Yo thanks so much for the tut, helps a lot and will be building one in my backyard soon! Also, what bike is that, it looks like a good one!
This guys is funny and helpful! 👍🏼👍🏼
Thanks blake now i can go hoping on my backyard😇
The finding the logs bit was the best!!!! Haha!!! Awesome 👍
lit, definitely making one in my backyard tomorrow!!!
Hey guys, can you please make a video about how stiff the suspension should be on a dirt jump bike ?
awesome vid very helpful
Thanks so much this helped a lot
