  I'm another one, here to say how good your videos are: straight to the point, no silly music, no nonsense.. Just "here's a bike, you can do it with any bike, here's how we do it". Much better teachers, technique, and content than many bigger names out there!! Love you guys, and thank you ❤

  Video hasn’t even started playing yet and I had to jump in and comment that I LOVE Matt Cordova. One of my favorite riders of all time. So stoked to watch him teach me to jump 🙌🏼

  Nice job breaking it down into sections. My goal is to safely learn to jump and feel comfortable doing it. As a 75 year old mountain biker, I want to get another 10 years or so of biking with some flare while I am still physically fit. Your comments about safety and practice, taking it step by step frame a good balance for learning to jump and not break the bike or the body. Thanks for your expertise and simplicity.

  Nice tutorial, I can do 20’ table tops but a 5’ gap gives me a lot of trepidation. Hard to get past that fear, sounds like I should head to a bike park and practice. 64 and going looking for jumps! Life is good🚵‍♂️

  I came here to learn how to jump over my bike. I was surprised when I found out this is to catch air on your bike. That is the opposite of what I am trying to do. I need to keep this shit firmly on the ground so my ancient body survives. However I would like to be able to jump over my bike so if any of you all could link me a video of how to jump over your bike that would be badass. If I do decide to launch on my bike will it help if I grow a badass beard? Not sure why we aren't all talking about that beard. Is that Matt? Hell ya matt. Grow that shit.

  For beginners these tips are really good, also explaining how things should feel when done right are so important to find the right cues as a beginner. In the end it&apos;s mostly practice, practice, practice but knowing how things should feel is definitely valuable. I would also suggest you ride many different jumps, as many and as as often as you can. And preferably with people that already can jump well or are at least slightly better than you.<br><br>One more thing, you can also feel like you are being pushed forward because your rear suspension is set with too much rebound. Turn the knob to the snail or - if you feel you are getting kicked forward by the shock. Also be careful if there is a root or something at the end of the lip because that can really kick you forward as your rear wheel rolls against it.

  I&apos;ve been jumping wrong my whole life, basically trying to pull the bike up off the lip. As always, you guys put out the best, easiest to understand videos. I want to be a confident jumper, and chase that boost now! Thanks so much.
