Mountain Bike Trail Riding Tips & Tricks : Mountain Biking Tips for Large Obstacles

[hottyfromnotty]

trail riding is awesome, and especially when you pick some speed, and whizz over some cool jumps on the way through. I like road biking if I want some speed, but my heart still stays with off road trekking on mountain bike.

[metalbynumber]

I usually go for the approach of pulling up and riding over it like a beast, haha! Trail riding is fun. It's alot better when you ride on a bmx bike!

[frozenveinz1]

@metalbynumber Oh yes, trail riding is alot better when you ride on bicycles designed for BMX, not the bicycles specifically designed for trail riding...

[metalbynumber]

@frozenveinz1 It's the best! Xtreme!!!

[bigcrayola]

only the best of men go down a trail on a road bike... courageous my friend!

[donziiwww]

Going trails on no suspension bike, good luck :D

[Razor32061]

when you are going up a slope the log doesn't get bigger it gets higher to jump because of the slope. thats what he means by a "bigger log."

[bennymattan]

Agreed... fuck a bunnyhop get a full suspension

[mrfossy919]

@bennymattan agreed  geat a proper bike to

[s1lentbutd3adly0]

Every time I watch an expertvillage video with this guy in it, I want to blow my brains out over my computer screen.

[schusta677]

"I dragged this log into the middle of the trail to completely fuck someone over"

[TheUnrulyBlitz]

lol



[ParkourBONEZ]

CASE



[percectinsanity]

i bet that bike is from the 90s and who would ride down trails on a bike with no suspension

[SamuelPrice1994]

More than likely if somebody has fallen then they're going to want to get back up so if you try and jump them your gunna hit them fuck tard!

[joshgaus]

@SamuelPrice1994 It would be pretty funny if it worked though, haha

[damirivicakos]

I just don't go into the woods...

there are wolves in the woods...

:D

[MrTROLOLOLOLOLOLOL]

@damirivicakos

Who cares.

[Ps3GamerVideos]

@damirivicakos

There are nasty men in the woods..

[johnpark888]

[TheYoface911]

[jarekjarek9]

[alexoreo2]

Imagine that log was a person! LOL

[TheSpacemonkey09]

lol at his near fail first time.

[MajorHuck]

what a fucktard

[ArleyCaballero1]

id probably end up running the person over thats fallen, 

[cursdAtrum27]

Tips and tricks for mountain biking over large obstacles: don't ride a gay bike like the ones here, with long stems and no suspension... Get a bike with at least 180mm of travel!!!!!( agood mtb) for example, a transition bottle rocket

[thenigtswhosayni]

I stopped doing this after i was flying down a hill, hopped over a log and didnt make it all the way...i didnt crash but i bent the shit out of my rim.

[Spuriusrex]

@AlbinosaurusRex Agreed.

[AlbinosaurusRex]

I'd rather walk

[VideosTeam808]

this guy is bollocks

[shaundasheep7]

easier to bunny hop with lower seat

[yetibiker08]

If there is a fallen elephant in the trail just compress the bike and jump it rolling over its belly then hop on the ground =)

[khann015]

I rofl when the dude hit the tree!!!..i think expert village is pulling of the biggest RICKROLL EVAR!!!.. they are just no experts on their site...

[patrikk777]

I was riding my bike today in the city. A old lady fell in front of me, so I figured, why not jump over her. I hit my backwheel in her face, but it was OK, I told her I didn't have enough momentum.

[Jakeieboy1990]

Your clipped in, that's not a bunny hop.

[kaelx0]

lol man u suck,u need more practice b4 u do any tips n tricks vid..

[MrZachTheAttack]

a bike with shocks would help

[ThePaTrIcIjO]

LL,O,LL

[jackwski]

spit the potato!



[skateorhate111]

if u do trail riding should u be single speed or different gears or it doesnt matter. i already know u should at least have a front shock.

[theflyingdiablo]

who rides rigid on a trail haha fucking noob!!!!

[wartree]

@theflyingdiablo you are the noob, there are plenty of pretty good awsome rigid mtb bikes, see Salsa Fargo bike, it is awsome to ride long distances in singletrack

[theflyingdiablo]

@wartree sorry i want to be able to use my hands and wrist when im old.... rigid is shit man

[BleedingSunday]

@theflyingdiablo

Rigid = technique

Fully = not

[TheBiblemen]

ur bike sounds like its about to fall apart

[1joe22]

@TheBiblemen coz its a peice of crap

[mrtheroosterdude]

Haha dude with a 29er you only have to worry about the front tire btw I like that little tire plant thing you did on the tree

[wackogoalie30]

im no expert, but something tells me i dont wanna be taking advice from someone who runs into a tree when hes trying to take off.

[paareth]

Ah its fixed now anyway, it is just subtitles now. Cheers the video.

[paareth]

ah all I saw here was the text in front of the picture for the whole video?

[upnext88]

@paareth click cc on the bottom bar on the video

[itisivon]

As you can see, I push my tires into the ground like basket balls. I use these balls to jump over people who may be wounded and lying on the ground fucking up the trail. Observe as I demonstrate how to lean on this tree like a total fucking asshole. Now watch closely and you will notice my rectum stretch as men penetrate it after a successful backwoods bunny hop. And there you go! The bunny hop.

[tavonevox16]

I LOVE MY BIKE! <3

[onionvolcano1]

I have a question. can you only bunny hop with clip ins or can you do it with normal flat pedals, becuase I have tried it for ages, and can't seem to get it

[hook282]

@onionvolcano1 ya man its not hard at all with the right technique type in how to bunny hop on youtube and i think its the first or 2nd vid check it out buddy explains vary well how to bunny hop and talks about scoping the peddles and has some nice slow mo`s to see the motions involved so check it out and youll be bunny hoppin in no time man

[SwipaXNoXSwipen]

(Fallen rider) Upcoming bike: STAY THE FUCK DOWN, IM NOT GOOD AT BIGGER OBSTACALS!!!! >:O

[Jerkwitz]

how do you make bunny hops higher? I can only get a few inches off the ground

[jasonwhy]

Come home

[manabiker]

I got hopped over today, and I was still riding down the trail, I think his name was Superman, but I did make myself and bike smaller just in case,

But this was pretty good info..

[C4orce]

lolz for taking advice from a mountainbiker without suspension...

[marillionfan65]

@C4orce you think you are better with a suspension bike? in the 90´s there was no suspensions John Tomac or Ned Overend or Gary Fisher used to ride with no suspension, try to beat one of them or try to beat a trial biker

[sinsaequentin]

When jumping over babies, make sure your rear tire dosn't clear over there head, instead make sure it lands on there skull crusing it thus causing dead babies syndrome.

[pc404mo]

jumping over a fallen person!!!!!

I would never do that.

[zman17ify]

@pc404mo so you would just hit him

[hacim36]

LOL this is a funny video..."i dont want to hit the log from the side if i do hit it"....thus..you want to hit it head on if it's gonna happen rofl..silly guy

[hacim36]

I'm pretty sure the log was the exact same size going uphill as downhill. Otherwise that's one special log. What else can it do besides shape shifting?

[bdominguez1976]

Good info man, thanks

[EuroHeliMalta]

It's done quite often when on single track and riders ride close together. I got hopped over at Whistler last year!

[ynewbee]

@EuroHeliMalta thats realy cool

[Danhil29]

cool

[soleman68]

lol ya hop over someone who fell over in front of you and hit there chest with your back tire oooops

[jajarmizadeh]

you suck at this that was shit

[koko56]

@jajarmizadeh loltroll

[kriskinealy]

just lift the fooker up and clear the obstacle dont be a pussy. my brother is in a wheelchair and he can bunny hop another wheelchair and its not folded up. and hes got no arms

[TheJeepWheeler]

haha dude this ugy is probably a btter biker than you will ever be, and no one careas about your brother thn likes to fall over in his wheelchair

[1sgtbeta1]

ya ok... no one believes you, not even you believe yourself.

[kingdead7]

same with me mcskatin

[FuzzyTrout]

j hop u dumbass

[mcskatin]

everyone thinks i can bunny hop the highest cause when im in the air during a jump, i can move my bike back and forth and side to side fine but on flat ground its such a freakin struggle. i cant get the back wheel up at all

[coltybear45]

it takes a true rider to shred trailsdirt jumps are better though and knocking your rear wheel is very easy if you learn how to ride

[davidRios622]

How the hell you do to "go-up" the back wheel ?.., I can do that with the front wheel, but I cant with the back wheel ..

[ballaboy145]

He's riding clipless. Where your shoes attach (clip on) to your pedals. That makes it a lot easier to do bunny hops and stuff like he just did. Hope that helps.

[Blackhat4life]

you have to position majority of your body weight towards the front,

Put your pedal parallel to the ground and point your toes downward

PUSH towards your back wheel and as long as you have a good grip on your pedals your rear wheel should lift off the ground....

If it doesnt then you need to put more force into it or shift your weight more forward.

Just practice w/o lifting your front @ all.... just cruise and try lifting ONLY your rear wheel. THEN try combining front and rear into a bunny hop

[davidRios622]

Thanks!! :) I'll try

[usuckers73]

lean forward then push your toe to the ground and bend your legs upward and you should lift your back tire.

and to bunny hope all you have to do is lift the front tire and push up when your at the hight you want to go up to and put your toes down push on the pedals and lift your back tire and to do this you have to kinda of jump when you lift the back tire up

[CharlieSabaitis]

Where did you shoot that video?? It looks like a good mountain biking trail.

[crazyTKDskwerl]

"somebody falls in front of you, you can jump over em"...hahaha. awesome.

[mulfu]

except if they are really fat...

[marsevin]

Question. All those tricks aren't more easy with a full s. bike?

[TheWorldofMax]

Full sus bike would be heavier i think. Although when he is trail riding he should at least have a hardtail

[ItsDanCog]

you can hop alot higher on a hardtail. if you try to hop somthing and you case with a hardtail you might go over the bars though...

[marsevin]

Guys this video is for beginners. I think it gives useful information for someone who never tried such things before. GOOD JOB!

[GermanYankeeFan1]

kacken

[selectazip]

A fucken retard y do u waist so many hours thinking ur good u fucken retard my grandma could ride better than u

[helmethead522]

thx that was really helpful, you inproved my bunny hop.

[PocketDrummer]

why are so many people making fun of this guy?

[xota]

lol

[RGonZ111]

no words can describe this retardedness...

[wakedonzi]

way to almost fall when getting back on the bike to go downhill dude hahaha

[dpsdan4]

wtf jumping over a fallen person i would like to see that :P

[enduro491]

that wus a bit exagerated did he really need to do the gay lttle hop thing

[AnimepimpYT]

just an example

[mountainbikedude123]

if you try jumping over someone who has fallen, make sure you clear him.

[gavinjoaquinolivas]

haha true dat

[Memphis35]

if your mtb dont have at least front suspension then it is a poofter bike for poofters

[hellspawndarkangel]

heavy mountain bikes r shithouse, i noe, ive got one, i rode my friends one n its soo much easier to jump cerbs n shit

[ramboormark]

wooahh cerbs!! u must be awesome

[hockeykid116]

that was a fucking J HOP.. cuz he lifted the front first. whatta faggit. he said it was a bunny hop. queeeeer.

[Jojojojof]

lots of peole call them bunny hops

[hockeykid116]

yea i know but that was a jhop cuz he lifted the front first. a bunny hop is both wheels at the same time

[drewpybeitzel]

ok cool!

[petrunic1]

he has disc brakes, hart tail bike...but no front suspension...

what kind of bike is that??

[BABBYlonian]

a crap $dollar bike not designed for mountain biking

[BABBYlonian]

*$100

[mountainbikedude123]

its about the rider not the bike.

[BABBYlonian]

uh.. did I say that it's all about the bike? NO!

I had a crappy bike too and I understand that it is about the rider. But there is a limit to what you can do with a cheap bike.

[620sly]

yea i agree but tht wasnt even a hop it was more like a flop lol

[dontask2015]

lol watch him at 0:51

[VR46andco]

whats up with thats guys voice

ha ha ha

so gay

[mtobiassen]

I know how to bunny hop and this didn't make sense...you can jump over someone who crashed?...really? lame

[riopieboy]

Please tell me where in the bible it says smoking is wrong. Damn theist. Fuck off and force your disgusting religion on someone else.

Now if you excuse me I have to fuck some hookers, watch some ufc, sacrifice a sheep to satan and jerk off to some jesus and mary porn.

[dirtjumperjad]

this guy calls himself an expert?

[fidelyo123]

having a heavy mtn bike is a disadvantage when it comes to doing a bunny hop though

[QuietQuakePro]

i can bunny hop with clipless petals but i don't get how people hop without them

[bawly123]

its purely upper body strength when you bunny hop without clipless pedals

[wolfgang1916]

no its not purely upper body strength its also technique and you also have to use your feet to kind of grip the bike upper body strength helps though

[fartenink]

dude it is soooooo easy with clip less how do you think they do it in bmx dip shits they dont have clips in bmx freestyle OK?

[poelinca]

i usualy rely on my feet too , i stretch the ankle like a ballerina and then push a bit backwords to get grip on the pedals and then lift them up . you can try it without lifting the front wheel , just the back one with only you're feet , so upper body whont count as much .

[47zencreative]

Damn! bacteria85 got burned!!! BURNED!!!

[crazystud5]

its easier probly if he had shocks on the front

[willsie22]

pumping them up like a basketball lmfao retard.

[misusedcrayon]

[252sampson]
