I watched this video when it came out and the cueing around hip position relative to the rear axle was something I’d literally never heard before. Since then I’ve been giving it a shot on the trails and it’s like hitting boost pads in Mario Kart. This video totally changed the way I look at trails. Thank you for that.

@AprilRideMTB 3 года назад

Thats so awesome! Glad that it helped :)

@rcranes2227 2 года назад

it's funny, because the first tutorial I saw was Lee and Alex's from Joy of bikes, and they explain this as a row-counter row motion. however, the end result of the counter row is essentially the same, it moves your hips back when it's time to pump. and the other advice here to not go too far back is addressed with the row motion on the upward side of the berm. I moved from a small 27.5 inch bike to a medium 29er and noticed immediately I wasn't as fast on the track. i wonder if the linger chainstay on the larger back is just far enough that my hips aren't going back enough. I can still pump and accelerate, just not as easily.

@bebotivo 3 года назад

I've seen several tutorials on pumping, but, yours is the only one that gives enough detail to 'get it.' The best by far- thanks!

@AprilRideMTB 3 года назад

Wow, thanks! I love pump tracks and pumping trails so much and I just wanted to help you guys learn it. I hope it is easy to apply :)

@m.muzinski7842 3 года назад

This is it! What bebovito siad. I started riding this year.. I watch tons of skills tutorials.. like really tons.. all parts of the world.. great youtubers often amazing riders.. they know how to ride and make videos.. but K&A tutorials are godsend! Your have something special to this.. and I mean I understand and catch some details better.. it is explained better.. in order.. I think it is really April, her trust in you.. but also you being really careful with her and the blend of your explanations for her and simultaneously for us.. the only thing that can beat you is real life instructor taking me for a spin.. directly correcting my riding.. with years of experience and tricks that they rather not show on internet. Great great stuff!

@Junnanma 3 года назад

100%

@steezymtb5876 3 года назад

Agreed. The slow motion, stopped frame explanations really offered something better than the generic "just pump with your legs" - explanation that similar videos usually offer.

@lanceb247Upload 2 года назад

Yeah, thanks for this-I hit the local pump track with a another video for guidance but didn’t get beyond simply maintaining speed… your additional detail and explanations about the weight transfer are clearly what I was missing. Looking forward to trying it out on the track!

@sierr4echo805 3 года назад

These lesson videos are just fantastic! So insightful and clear. All the comments about you being a great coach are spot on, Kyle. What makes it even better is that you're a great demonstrator, April. I realise you both put a lot of time into your parts but in the edit the difference in April's body position is so clear to see and make it easy for the viewer to understand what Kyle has said. That's a real plus and it's not easy to do because people always think their movements are more dynamic than they actually are. It kinda involves exaggerating movements but not so much that it looks forced. Such a strong pairing for teaching. Plus you seem like really cool people. Well, fanboying over!! Thanks for the content, I'm already riding better as a result :)

@AprilRideMTB 3 года назад

@tnordquist3296 2 года назад

I agree. This is the next best thing to doing a group class, where you get to see coaching of what others are doing right, wrong, correcting and applying in real time. Sometimes I think I learn as much from watching others learn as I do by practicing it myself.

@martyleyeti 3 года назад

Did Kyle study Pedagogy or something close ? April is a gifted student for sure. But Man, this guy can definitively explain things and pass knowledge to someone like no one else #LovefromFrance #PassItOn

@AprilRideMTB 3 года назад

Haha thank you! No I actually even got kicked out of highschool for being a bad student because I was so bored in class. I really wanted to be a professional rider and studied the best guys so much along the way. Its funny because I am not naturally gifted as an athlete and needed to make sure I was doing everything perfect to have a chance at the races. So glad that people are finding these videos helpful though :)

Kyle & April, great to see your continued growth and support from the biking community in what your are doing. Have commented in the past and reiterate that the way you are breaking down the skills, showing and comparing body positions, drawing lines, explaining cause/effect, highlighting common mistakes, and watching the progression has been great for myself and to pass on to my son. Watching the 'how to pump' tutorial revealed more key tips, particularly those hips just past the rear axle (more than just legs pumping down!). Look forward to some jump tutorials, and also help with progression handling transition from blue to black (steepness) jumps in the future. Best wishes, Stuart

A good cup of coffee and a new Kyle & April video. What a perfect way to start of a Saturday morning and first day of vacation. Time to hit the Stockholm trails.

This is awesome. I've never really understood the concept of pumping before this. I'm super keen to use it on the trail; just like April I could never work out why I never kept pace with others in some areas! Very happy subscriber here!

Another great video. You guys are killing it. I have been noticing that you and all other really good riders seem to “float” on the trail while I seem to just “plow” through it. I guess this is what they are all doing to stay light on the bike and make the terrain work for you. Thank you so much for the awesome content. You guys are awesome

@AprilRideMTB 3 года назад

Thanks so much Natahan! Yeah this is exactly what the pro guys are doing down the whole trail and in the enduro race video this is what i was kind of talking about when i was saying pumping :)

ANOTHER great video !!!! I’m 40 and picking up my MTB after many years off it, your coaching style & the confidence that April has in what you are saying, and seeing the huge leaps forward in her riding has given me the confidence to push myself too ! I’m getting there and will keep watching!!!! Great job guys. Gaz (UK)
