Ha ha, just been told off by the old couple across the way for doing this on our estate with my neighbour’s sons. Apparently at 55 I’m old enough to know better🙈 but what else am I supposed to do with my DJ on a damp afternoon? It’s not my fault the boys next door came out to have a go whilst their Mum brought me tea & cake.....
Is Blake the most talented all round rider on GMBN? I think so.

Who doesn't
Blake you always make me smile
Blake is by far the best personality, most entertaining, and most skilled person gmbn has. Blake is so fun to watch and gave great inspiration for me and my little girl to build some ramps
This video comes at a perfect time as my buddies and I are making plans to develop an area for riding. Any future videos on ramp/trail building would be great.
Fun fact for all you kids out there, your local hardware store big box stores (like Home Depot) has off cuts of wood that they just throw away! They are usually in the back of the store in the lumber section! Just ask someone before you start taking stuff, some off cuts could be customers. They will tell you what is free :) It's a great way to get all kinds of wood to build with
I remember doing this before going to school, early in the morning, picking scrap bricks and wood. You can learn soo much with that!
Started watching this video, half way through went and "built" myself a mini ramp from wood scraps. Great video :D !
Thanks Blake
Your love for ride is amazing man. Always an inspiration to just get out and ride
Great video, this morning I built the Sam Pilgrim backpack mini ramp that fits in your bag, and sent it
I've been needing something to do over Easter, cheers Blake
life is simple :) you just saved me 200-500 usd. because i was looking at MTB hopper and i knew there has to be a much cheaper way to same fun. specially i am beginner. thank you so much man!
I’m loving these vids with Blake on the jump bike sooooo much haha. Maybe it’s cause I just got mine a few days ago and now I’m trying to learn all sorts of things 🤔
This has really inspired me to try out some tricks in my backyard, thanks guys!
Love the energy Blake, got me pumped to get out on the bike tomorrow 🤟
It’s so good when a video is the answer to a question u have
Yes!!! Love these ramp build vids!!
Amazing how much air and travel you get off that first little jump Blake 🔥
Gosh i love Blake
I used Blakes Video the mini kicker is an amazing job you can anything on it. I even learnt to whip on it.
Love these kinda vids, and blake is just awesome as always
Loving more jump bike vids
Love your Slopestyle bike videos, keep up the good work guy’s!

Underrated comment...
Love u, Blake!
Awesome !!
COOL
A great thing to do is to go to your local builder. They often have large pieces of scrap wood that are perfect for making jumps and stuff but not great for houses. I made 2 kickers, a couple benches, a bike stand, and a bike rack all out of scrap wood that I got from a builder.
Takes me back to my childhood, but I had a Raleigh Chopper, crashed loads….. and Blakey now CAN fakey…..
Kid and his bike. 💪
Hmmmmmm a bit weird seeing BLAKE on a JUMP BIKE with REAR SHOCK after the last dirt shed show. Great video anyway Blake you are awesome! I'm gonna try building something like this for sure. Cheers!
I like your bike!
Strong
You need to this more often
His bike looks so smooth

thank you so much great video... So since canyon bikes are in the USA what would be a bike exactly like that one it looks really sweet and what size is it cuz it looks like a nice size? thanks!
Very nice jeep in the background 👌
This remind me of Sam Pilgrim's urban free riding videos😂great vid tho🤘
Great vid Blake, what make is your jump bike
How many times do I have to miss you recording here I was literally inside the building😪.
I live in that town!
i was literally just about to search up how to make a wooden ramp and then i see your new video
Yeah and I learned how to180 of it scrap jumps are great.
I feel like this video is being a kid 101. I remember that we would make all sorts of ramps as kids.
Over the bars but backwards... 😂 😂 😂
nice Jeep in the background
Sic
Here I thought I would see with a hardtail!
I could listen to Blake say "Winner winner chicken dinner" all day.
Blake should make a tutorial on how to make a pallet jump
Hey Blake, What size are your Barzo's?
Yo what bike is that? i would really like to know
Sam Pilgrim's next video: URBAN STEP UP SESH!!!! (ON STAIRSETS OF DOOM!!!)
I was literally at those steps yesterday
This video is my chilehood
Ive built 2 tiny kicker ramps a couple weeks ago there sick you go soo high of it like 3 feet so sick
how high should the second last kicker be?
I've got a feeling Blakey Gone Fakie!
What kinda bike is that? seems like a 1 speeder?
Can anyone suggest a good 26 jump fork please? Trying to fix my bike up so I can ride jumps again, got a budget of £300
Are you wearing just normal jeans with pads under or are they built in knee padded jeans ??
Once while I was riding on an underground parking lot I found a wooden ramp ready to hit and it was about 3-4 times bigger and steeper that the one at the beginning of this film
are these ok to learn to jump on?
what bike do u have?
3:53 Blakie can fakie?
You dont even need those Blake hahaha
Guys, what's the name of that chainstay tape with the little raised bubbles on it? It comes in a package that looks like a tape recorder tape? Doddy has shown it on GMBN Tech before. What's the brand called? Anyone? #askgmbntech
Hi
bunny hop assist on that first one
You have wood just “kicking around” on the streets!? In North America, a 2”x4”x8’ piece of untreated spruce is $10 (used to be less than $2 before covid).
4:37 a v8 engine sound:D
