@frits8986 Год назад

Agreed, one of the biggest challenges in mountain biking is to NOT brake all the time.

@TommyBlazeHD Год назад

I found myself riding the brakes my first time doing a legit trail this past Memorial Day weekend. I'm new to MTB'ing. I just took lessons too and it helped me not die on my first downhill trail. However, I was riding the brakes on that hill because it was too advanced for my skill level. It's a good thing that my instructor was behind me helping me keep my form right.

@fran_kie 11 месяцев назад

There is that saying in MTB which describes well what discussed in the video: “Don’t be a passenger” And that can be applied to other dynamic sports such as skiing.

@Aer_Marique 10 месяцев назад

First 3 times I went downhill biking (aka first time on a mountain bike) I fell at least 6 times and bruised/cut up at least a quarter of my body over those 2 weeks lmao... 5th time, hardly any brakes and no falls 👍🏼 (4th time I send a jump a little too hard....)

@CTWealth Год назад

I've been riding for 10 years and have always been slow on the downhill. I watched this video last night and road today. Set 2 PRs on the decent thanks to you. Incredible advice, thank you!

@Jamesyshreds Год назад

That's great news 🤘

@huntstyle Год назад

My rule #1: look AHEAD on the trail. I constantly have to remind myself of this, as I catch myself looking just a little in front of my front wheel. That makes every little curve seem a lot sharper than it really is. If you're looking past the curve, you often don't even notice it. Your body almost automatically moves the way it should to get your bike to go to the spot you're looking at. Also important because when you're riding fast, you're gonna be in that spot in a split second, so you better be ready for it!

@andrewlounsberry2371 11 месяцев назад

I learned to look ahead in my skiing. Hard to maneuver a trail when you are constantly looking right ahead of you. If you keep looking ahead you also don't react to every little nook and cranny. Instead you'll just be letting your bike flow over those sections!

@alastair4839 11 месяцев назад

@@andrewlounsberry2371 On skis/board - this is ok - but on a bike, what always worries me are those roots that are almost inline with your wheels so that if you hit one, your front wheel slides out... how do you avoid that? - or is speed your friend here?

@andrewlounsberry2371 11 месяцев назад

@@alastair4839 Well, in a way speed is your friend and looking ahead is always your friend! I know what you mean in referring to those roots that get you caught on the wrong side. By looking ahead of you, the idea is to sort of plan your path on the trail and set yourself up to avoid those roots or rocks that throw you for a loop. Or at least chart a better course though difficult terrain well before you are upon it.

@zafzo 10 месяцев назад

@@alastair4839 Looking ahead will help you plan a better path. Even if you still hit those annoying roots mid corner(or some gravel/scree), just make sure you're leaning the bike underneath you and keeping your body as upright as possible and centered over the bottom bracket. Proper body position and you can easily recover from slides, even front wheel slides. @TheLoamRanger has another video on cornering that talks about this.

@endoalley680 9 месяцев назад

Not just look ahead. When entering a turn, I do best by looking at the inside edge (backslope) of the exit of the turn. I don't look down at the turn. I am looking past it and to the inside of what's after the turn. Kind of scary at first to trust your bike without looking immediately in front of you. But you get used to it.

@charleswhite7612 Год назад

After 50+ yrs of riding, here’s your hack: ride like you are filming someone in front of you, like you’re protecting/steadying a camera, look way ahead, stay smooth & “flowy” whether on the trail, go-kart track, wherever. Do this and notice how much faster and in control you are in. Give it a try friends.👍😉

@RJ_Groot Год назад

I gotta admit I was actually looking forward to a good laugh as the music started....at the same time I was somewhat relieved when it was quickly kiboshed. 😆 Great advice as always. This braking technique also seems to keep those rotors a little cooler as a side benefit of not riding those brakes.

@paulshirek265 10 месяцев назад

Hi: I am a 63 year old Mountain biker that just started about 5 years ago and I learn a lot from your videos. I am not interested in doing a red bull challenge or too serious of scary challenges.

@brianreed3797 9 месяцев назад

Another great video. Your Buck concept is what PSIA/NSP (skiing) calls quiet upper body. The concept can be seen is great mogul skiers. They keep their upper body facing down the fall line (pointed down the mountain) their upper body and head don’t move up or down and they don’t rotate left or right. All the movement is from their hips down. Their hips/legs rotate side to side which controls their speed while at the same time they absorb the mogul with their knees.

@MilkDot Год назад

The Best way to implement this is, is to ride a hardtail. ride a hardtail on your favorite trail for a month or so, than jump on your full suspension and ride that the same way you rode your hardtail. You will instantly be faster, not only will you be picking better lines, you will actually be riding the trail rather than fighting it like he mentions in the video.

@francoisjoly7696 Год назад

You're completely right. Thanks for stressing that point. Hardtails are so fun AND they are an excellent way to learn skills... even if they are much less forgiving than FS bikes. Spank amateurs always appreciate ;)

@hardtailgang Год назад

Exactly this! ... Except don't go back to a full suspension, just stay on your hardtail. 😇

@Chainsnsprockets402 Год назад

Totally agree. I ride an 04’ hardtail with a crappy Suntour fork and skinny tires to hone my line choice skills and keep my body active. When I go back to my Trek EX 7 it’s almost too easy. You will ride with so much more speed and confidence.

@tomb-rider Год назад

yep. as soon as he mentioned the tip I thought _that's how I used to ride my HT!!_ Just goes to show how fs can make you lazy.

@buzzbartholomew3714 9 месяцев назад

Good point. A few years ago someone gave me an old Raleigh USA MTB - fully rigid. One day, none of my 4 bikes were rideable (the curse of being a bike mechanic) so I took it out on my local trail. What an eye opener! Every pebble felt like a boulder and every root like a log! It made me work on the basics incredibly hard and I really enjoyed it by the end.

@ormondjosh Год назад

I learned this lesson from tracking my car. Finding braking zones makes you faster. It’s weird but it works. It’s also good to think about traction. Braking in a straight line is more efficient then braking and trying to turn at the same time. Traction can only be used for one action at a time. Your either braking, turning, or accelerating.

@travistweedle9674 Год назад

I was taught that you only have 100% of traction at any given speed so if you are using 70% of your traction to brake you only have 30% left to turn with. The key is you never have more traction than 100% so you have to decide how and when to use it for maximum acceleration, turning, and braking. You can do them at the same time but it won't be as effective as doing them by themself and if you go past your 100% you slide and have 0% traction.

@MattDeLuco Год назад

Braking in corners will also have a tendency to force you more upright reducing your turning radius and traction (fewer side knobs as the bike stands up.)

@ormondjosh Год назад

@@MattDeLuco I call that the braking tractor beam. When I brake in corners, I always end up getting sucked into the object I’m trying to avoid.

@figlermaert Год назад

I learned these principles from playing gran tursimo 😂. It definitely makes a difference when you break going straight before the turn and then power into the turn.

@jeremyprovonsil7886 11 месяцев назад

@ormondjosh underrated comment and principles! 👍🏽 I get most of my braking skills and looking ahead from moto road track riding. Much faster speeds forces seeing things more quickly and letting your brain trust what your eyes have already seen. Look ahead and trust staying looking ahead. Get all your braking done before the corner whether feathering/stabbing/dragging and understanding when to push into the corner to force traction or separate body & bike are huge components to making turns on the line you are intending to take. Huge tip: if you have a favorite rider pull up their videos and hit mute, playback speed at .25 so you can focus on the magic that will appear before you. There’s so much more to learn about going fast at slow speed!

Friends have always asked about my secrets, but I’ve always had a hard time pointing to anything because I’ve just always done what felt right.

@desertratmatt Месяц назад

I have a 2008 Rockhopper I bought from a friend who had replaced pretty much every component (good tires, beefy rockshox air fork, dropper, single chain ring, disc brakes, etc). I ride many trails the bike was not designed for (and probably shouldn't be riding) so I learned from experience that this is the only way it works. Nice to see what I've been doing explained so clearly, because now it makes even more sense! I really need a new bike lol.

@martonmtb Год назад

Very good video. I have something to add tho: Try to look 1. as far away as possible (so you can process the trail faster) and 2. not at where you’re going but where you wanna go. I personally still have problems doing (1.) but I always notice how I ride faster and more controlled if I do these.

@MaceJuanDu 12 дней назад

@4:20 Amen to that: a large amount of the trail/road/track inputs are way larger than the suspension travel of even the most plush bikes. You literally need to think of your bike as the unsprung mass whilst your body is the sprung mass - and your arms and legs are like the most sophisticated active suspension system.

@superawesomefuntimego Год назад

100% truth right here. Stay loose, look ahead and brake early to carry more speed through and out of the corner. I have actually been practicing intentionally trying to be loose and limit my braking the last few weeks and it has helped tremendously, especially with arm pump and fatigue on longer trails that are very physical.

@jsimonfabien Год назад

so many good tips. always well illustrated. gotta love the Loam Ranger !

@src248 Год назад

Really appreciate these simplified tip videos, they are way easier to keep in mind while on the trails and have been very helpful so far. That washboard road near the bottom of Silverstar is what made me realize the less you brake the smoother it feels, miserable if you try to ride it slow but no problem if you no brake it

@SemiSendy Год назад

Stoked to see more talk about hard/attack braking! Learning to dump enough speed to be able to get off the brakes entirely in chunk and corners is game changing.

@NotSoRusty1 Год назад

Love how well you break down complicated skills into one or two key points. This video was like unlocking a door in my head. As soon as I applied the elements (still working on the braking thing) I rode faster, felt less fatigue in my hands and legs, and had SO much more fun. Thanks!!!

@tamasimrei 11 дней назад

Another great video, thank you! It was one of the biggest point I just recently learned is to let the bike roll over things instead of braking and/or trying to go around them. This rhymes pretty well with the video here.

"if you're anything like me, and i know I am..." lol. definitely going to use that one in the future.

@troyesch6203 Год назад

Excellent video and advice! I think another huge thing is to make sure your suspension is set up properly for you and your terrain. Neglected suspension settings can make a nice bike ride like a cheap bike. Keep up the great videos!

@ytcrazies487 11 месяцев назад

This is really well explained. It took me my first 2 years of riding to grasp and start to put together the "let it buck". I kept watching the really good riders, trying to figure out how they kept their torso and head still. Visually, I understood, but riding, I couldn't translate what I was doing with my body until this year. It made such a huge change to my riding, I keep trying to explain it to my riding buddies and wife.... now I have a video to show them ;-) Awesome on the breaking, I'm looking forward to trying that and getting better and faster.

@seanknight9898 Год назад

If I may throw something I discovered today practicing your how tos this morning, which by the way are the most logical I’ve seen and I’ve seen them all so thank you. Now to my discovery. I recently purchased a pair of Pedal Innovations Catalyst pedals as I’m turning 48 this month and still suffering from a major ankle injury 23 years ago. I bought them because I found that placing my feet on regular pedals so they were centred on the pedal lessened the strain on my achilles tendon and calf muscles which are worse for wear. Not only do my new pedals provide an incredible platform and more power climbing, I immediately began riding way faster. I believe this is happening because I can hold a “squat” body position far more effectively which in turn, allows me to do exactly what you’re explaining in this video. Not only are my new pedals a total game changer, they have dramatically enhanced my ability to dial all the techniques you’ve described in each of your how to’s. Next time you’re near Nelson, let’s ride. To everyone else, I hope my experience helps. Check out these pedals.

I'm trying it today. Edit: Im back and I had a misrable crash on a uphill feature but I did save it but ended up smashing my middle finger all I know is that I didn't break it. I maned up and went back the way I climbed and try'd my best to use my arms and torso as best as I could, and man I see the difference I didn't feel any stiffness and fear it even made me faster on the downhill.

You are one of the few who can analyze MTYB-riding and turn it in to useful tips. Good riders are good at riding, but they don’t understand why they are doing what they do. Like attack braking (or race braking), this is the only useful explanetion why it makes you faster.

Great video. These are your best ones! Thanks for making them. I call it 'floating' instead of bucking. Same, same.

Makes a lot of sense, I equate this to skiing as well, cant be checking your speed all the way down the blacks, pick your spots and stay balanced for the spicy bits. Thanks again!

You are such a great teacher! Your cornering advice changed my riding style permanently for the better and now this masterpiece. I'll try it out on the trails immediately!
