When one says Texas, one doesn't think about mountain biking. But the reality is that the MTB scene in Texas is exploding with my amazing bike parks popping up all over the place. In this video, we explore the lone star state to see how much progression we can make on our bikes!

Do you two ever ride different bikes? Some pump track and skatepark riding on dirt jumpers might help round out some uh... gaps in the skill collection. It would be pretty interesting to see you two build your own pump/trails features that evolve with you and are designed specifically to unlock a few things you feel are missing like pumping, popping, nosing into landings, etc. Great stuff as always

I’m sure it’s hard to pack more than 2 bikes in a van that you live in full time.

Was great having Eric and Yuka at the Freeride512 Park at Rocky Hill. We're always continuing the progression build there, and will have more for you to ride next time.

@nofrontbrakes 2 года назад

Totally captured the TX vibe! Yuka's "I'm just gonna send it" mentality is amazing to watch, and I appreciate that you and I have the same mental approach to doing things. Now if I only had some of your skills... 😂

All I can say is that these guys came to Dallas Big Cedar thanks to the new stuff that was built! What's so special is that the features are built with safety and progression in mind. So cool be part of it and I know our group will not look back we will just keep progressing and building more wherever they let us💪🏻

Love the Texas MTB scene. I've lived in Texas my whole life but I only started riding (give or take) 2 years ago. Everyone I've met has been so nice and helpful and the trails are so progressive!! Good things to come in the very near future, deep in the heart of Texas!

Texas continues to do it big and do it right! Great review of three awesome bike parks, Team! Looks like great places for skill development. Looking forward to your next visit when you ride all the lines with no hesitation, casing or overshooting. Always good for a smile to see/hear VGY employing the "just send it approach" and deal with the consequences after. Another great vid, Eric. Loving the channel(s). Stay awesome. Cheers, Derek

@Dubzy001 2 года назад

Oh snap, you all were in our back yard. I lurk and dont comment much but my husband and I are game dev/mountain bikers in the Austin area. I found your channel a while ago and saw you had a similar background, so ya'lls story really resonates with us! You've really inspired us. We follow VanGirlYuka too!

@bengonzales1182 2 года назад

Happy day! A video from Eric! I love your travel logs and I love seeing you work up to features. It gives me hope! There is great (seriously great) trail riding in my area and a fun natural feature bike park-ish place. What we lack is a park with side-by-side progressions.

@gr0undrush 2 года назад

Awesome places. I'd like to see more parks like these. Expecially like wide tabletops where one side is a full table, and the other has a gap, so when you can clear the table you KNOW you can clear the gap, with exactly the same take off and landing.

@ArkAngel_45 2 года назад

If you're looking for jumps in Texas, check out Seguin Skills Park. The builder Chris is a fantastic person and does jump classes in Saturdays. They work entirely off of donations to the children's center that let's him build out there.

@blandfox600 2 года назад

if you guys ever swing by NC in the future, I would highly recommend Fisher Farms black diamond trails. It has some really smooth trails with bolder features, speedy berms and a flowy road gap. The locals really take great care of their trails. (The only trail i wouldn't recommend is the Twisted Sisters. Its kinda rough.)

@Alexandros_Patsialidis 2 года назад

Now I clearly see why Erik is coming nosy on all of his jumps. I mean kinda controlled nosy. He pops just a bit early: 6:00 And then he also moves towards the handelbar. Just an observation this is 🌹 going to a pumptrack and really learn how to pop with the right riming might help a lot! Cheers and thanks for you fantastic content 🍻

@kimweincek9019 2 года назад

@aggiemtb4038 2 года назад

I tested out full pull before all the jumps were put in (with permission of course) and also overshot the first jump. I landed all the way in the dirt and ate it. Great clip for Friday fails
