How To Jump A Bike Pt 2 Technique & Timing
This is a video we have been wanting to do for a while! In our first how to jump video we spent a lot of time talking about how to execute the Pop technique. We have heard a lot of great success stories over the last couple years with that video but we wanted to expand a bit more on the ideas behind it and how to diagnose what you may be doing. In this video we explain the three most common jump techniques we see in the wild and how each of them can be a tool or a hinderance depending on your goals.

I've been working to help my son with his jumping, and after this went back to some video and could see his arms totally collapsing at the lip. I couldn't figure it out before but your explaination was perfect. Thanks!

@AprilRideMTB Год назад

That is awesome! We love hearing those kinds of stories! Tell you son to keep at it!!

@martinforbes3371 Год назад

That is very interesting ! Hope he has gain confidence now !

@AprilRideMTB Год назад

Hey Everyone, Hope you enjoy the video! Like i said i think it's important to be realistic that there is generally not one perfect technique that fits every situation in mountain biking. True mastery comes from practicing and understanding multiple techniques and being able to apply them when the situation calls for it. One of our goals this year is to expand upon some of the previous tutorial videos we have done and give a secondary layer of thought to the techniques. When we were teaching April the basics as she started to get really into mountain biking there was already so many thoughts running through her head that it made the most sense to simplify and focus on one main foundational technique for things like drops, corners, and jumps. Now that she has progressed and committed a lot of thoughts to muscle memory we have been able to start playing around with modifications to those techniques and it's been super fun to watch the learning progress. It's also been hugely helpful in April's ability to troubleshoot certain features and understand how to change her technique to overcome them. We hope to provide a lot of useful content this year and if anyone has any questions on specific things please let us know, we will do our best to incorporate those questions into future videos! Thanks again for watching and supporting! Sincerely, Kyle & April

@bretclaflin7853 Год назад

Yoo! how long are you in the area?? Any subscriber meet ups or opportunities to ride together?

@Todd66 Год назад

I’ve said it before, gonna say it again. Kyle is a natural teacher. I am never not impressed by his ability to break things down and lay them out in a very easy to process way. Kudos. I would like to give a shout out to the progression in editing. It’s been really good from day one with no exceptions, but this video with the slow mo comparisons…nice touch!! Great Job you two!!! That park is badass. We just got a park built here, I would LOVE to see Kyle dominate it. I hope you two have a awesome Easter Weekend. ❤

@AprilRideMTB Год назад

Thanks so much Todd! Its been fun sharing videos with you guys and trying to get better at the skill of storytelling and editing as well! Hopefully 2023 will be full of valuable videos for everyone! We can't wait for summer!

@cleggycyclist Год назад

Can we take a moment to appreciate the tenacity of your phone to stay on the saddle throughout, mine would have fallen to the ground and smashed itself

@AprilRideMTB Год назад

Haha i was really surprised! I had all my notes on it and wanted to keep it up for easy access haha. It would have been tragic if i hit the dropper on accident and shot the phone to the moon!

@DISABLED12-7 Год назад

The phone remembered to keep its toes pointing down.

@Bemark100 2 месяца назад

I have just started mtb at 56. Had a phone holder that has 4 rubber bands that hold on 2 you phone. Trek powerfly 4 gen 4 hardtail. Leaning I look down at my ebike command center, and it is orange. Orange brain is still foggy. Where is my phone. Gone. I did the most horrible thing. I went back to the track and went up the down .listening for riders. I found it in the middle of a step downhill. 50 meters away from the time I noticed it gone. Never again, as now I place it in my backpack.

@Bemark100 2 месяца назад

The phone has the app for the e bike. I broke the factory holders a few months ago, so the phone is the management anti theft key. Without it, it's a tank to pedal. I got sold on its what motorbikere people use in off-track rallies. Don't buy an expensive rubber band.

@gesundheitstips2197 Год назад

one of the best videos about jumping out there. I know because I have seen them all. 😂

@AprilRideMTB Год назад

Haha thank you! It was a lot of info i hadn't seen others talk about much! Hopefully it helps some people!

@jasonlarson2487 Год назад

Finally, a video that truly brakes down how to jump.

@AprilRideMTB Год назад

Thanks Jason! Hopefully its helpful for everyone!

@Tactician666 Год назад

It's made my day to see another tutorial video by Kyle and April. Kyle's unusual in that he's an absolute beast, but he understands the thought-processes that go on with mere mortals. I'm still really grateful for the pumping video from a few years back - I wasted a load of money on a terrible instructor at a bike park who over-complicated it and left me completely confused, whereas Kyle's simple step-by-step explanation had me doing it really quickly.

@AprilRideMTB Год назад

Thats so kind of you to say! I totally resonate with the beginners because i was self taught and wanted nothing more than to be a good rider. I remember all those little fears and wins along the way haha!

@RossMetler Год назад

I'm a novice mtb rider but somewhat comparable to Kyle on a snowboard. What's cool about this video is that I learned/realized a lot of things that apply to both sports. I have learned all of these techniques on a snowboard just by riding for a long time - but hadn't made the connection with the different techniques when it comes to mtb. I really appreciate Kyle not just for being an impressive athlete, but being an enthusiastic teacher as well. Great stuff!

@AprilRideMTB Год назад

Thats so rad Ross! Thanks for the kind words!

@STLMTB Год назад

As an old guy that's new to jumping, thanks for the tips.

@AprilRideMTB Год назад

Absolutely! Thanks so much for watching Steve!

@Pigsandpies1984 Год назад

I’m 53, learning to jump. Very carefully 😅. Never too old to have fun!

@Bixbysayshi Год назад

I think a good way of explaining how to exert the right amount and king of force up the face of a jump is to think o fit like jumping on a trampoline vs. jumping off the ground. you can just pop off the ground when jumping. but if you do that on a trampoline, nothing will really happen. To jump (not bounce, jump) on a trampoline you have first compress all your weight downwards and use up the travel of the trampoline BEFORE you begin actually jumping upwards.

@AprilRideMTB Год назад

That is a really good analogy that we will for sure incorporate in the future!

@marcstein-wiese833 Год назад

Very very good comparison, that‘s how it must feel like and what I‘m concentrating on from now on! This trampoline-feeling most of us should know ;)

@YanDoroshenko Год назад

Awesome! Now I just need for it to stop raining 24/7 at 5 degrees to go riding and try to apply all this valuable knowledge I now possess.

@AprilRideMTB Год назад

Yeah haha we finally had a nice day today in Boise! Its been over 150 days of cold weather!

@niuniezpolska4683 Год назад

Very nice video about how to jump. It helped me understanding where to start decompressing. I'd add that well calculated pop method gives more stability when landing and gives more time to adjust before next jump.

@willbros1499 Год назад

Outstanding, as always, and cool to see you and April here in Rogers, Arkansas! I learned wrong when I first started. I absorbed the jumps and "squashed them," and did precisely what you said; constantly having to go faster to clear the jumps others were clearing, or otherwise, I would case them. I would be riding behind them, thinking, "PLEASE SPEED UP!" Annoying. I had to un-learn that "squash" technique, and learn how to jump correctly so I could clear the jumps at the intended "trail speed." What made the lightbulb come on for me was finding two rollers with a gap between them, and forcing myself to clear the gap. I would liken it to EXACTLY what you were showing April doing, when she was off the bike jumping...once without coil, and once with. It wasn't until I gave myself a distance target that I couldn't go fast enough to clear without "popping" off the first one, that I really got the concept of using the energy in my legs to "jump" and bring the bike along with me, because my mass is much greater than the bike. Then I would slow down my speed little by little and increase my coil and release, and I just kept doing that over and over until the motion became natural. It may not work for others, but I had to eliminate the consequences by starting really small to learn the technique, and then move up in scale. It was the only way over the mental hurdle. I still struggle on really steep or "lippy" jumps, but I keep working at it.

@AprilRideMTB Год назад

Thanks for sharing what helped you! I am sure it will help others in the future for sure!!

So good at breaking down these complex movements. We might have stereotypical descriptions to characterize an inexperienced rider on a jump, but the truth is that an experienced rider will use a combination of all these techniques tailored to a given feature and adapt throughout a trail.

Wow, this is the perfect explanation of jumping and why it's so nuanced. There are slight changes in technique based on each jump really. Kyle makes that expert slopestyle line at Railyard look like cake, it's a lot bigger in person when you drop off that first roll in jump.

@AprilRideMTB Год назад

Thanks Tyler! Yeah its so nuanced and really requires a lot of flexibility with your techniques to get the best result

@paulmca9731 Год назад

@AprilRideMTB Год назад

@sapinva Год назад

One thing that helped me a lot with jumping and pumping, is listening carefully to the sound of my tires. You can't see yourself while riding but when you hear it, loading up and releasing energy gives you real time feedback.

@AprilRideMTB Год назад

That is a really interesting observation!
