Stoppies | MTB Skills: Practice Like a Pro #32

Спорт

It's time for more party tricks!
Today we're tackling the stoppie. While it's a fun way to pull up to your friends, it can also be a useful on-trail skill when you find yourself in a tight switchback.
To execute a stoppie, you'll move through three positions, starting back, then moving forward, then back again as the rear wheel rises:
1. BACK: Coast with your body slightly behind centered
2. FORWARD: Simultaneously shift forward and up slightly, straightening your arms while pulling front brake.
3. BACK: Once tire stops rotating and bike begins to pivot on front axle, shift hips rearward and tuck to balance the stoppie

ABOUT SIMON LAWTON
Following his own Pro Downhill mountain bike racing career, Simon Lawton (Owner and Founder) has spent the last 25 years analyzing the top riders in the world to understand the tiniest details that contribute to their greatest successes, and also any weaknesses that are holding them back. With an exceptional understanding of kinesiology, Simon has developed his own teaching curriculum that explains the incredible relationship between human and machine. He has trained top pro mountain bike racers across the world, and his foundational techniques apply equally to beginner riders. His on-bike drills allow you to break down complex skills on the bike and develop correct techniques.

ABOUT LINNEA ROOKE
Linnea has been racing locally in the pro category, but until this year she had almost no formal training and was held back by major gaps in her technique. While she was able to carry speed well on straight downhills and high-bermed turns, she lacked foundational cornering skills and was timid in the air. In Feb 2020, she met up with Fluidride to help with a filming trip in Baja, and was fascinated by Simon's teaching methods. Wanting to be part of this mission, she left her career in healthcare in July 2020 to officially join the Fluidride team as COO. We started filming this series to document her journey of cleaning up bad habits, adding new skills to her toolkit, and chasing her dream of riding with style.

    Ok, strange. This is the first episode that really surprised me. I've never seen someone who rides for severel years, but doesn't know how to pull off a stoppie. For me that was one of the first things I discovered when I got my first bike with disc brakes (20 years ago) and I consider it natural to find out. Really surprised such a talented rider didn't know that "move". You can learn stoppies much faster when you start with seated ones, because you don't need to shift weight. Starting with standing ones is more difficult and it takes more courage. Nice to see that Linnea is progressing so well. Best MTB instruction series ever!👍🏻😎👌🏻 Cheers from Germany

    Back in 1978ish, a guy named Bob Haro did that trick by planting the front wheel into a curb and called it a curb endo. It, for all intents and purposes, was the birth of the entire sport of freestyle bmx. So for **most** bicyclists, that has always been called an endo. It's moot to call either the "right" name for the trick for alas, the sun will still rise tomorrow regardless of what we call it and most folks will know what is happening with either name :-)

    Been into mtb for about half a year now. Tried and failed some on my own. Started to watch videos like this. And it helps tremendously. Watching videos like this makes me more cautious about where I have my body etc. Like the heel drop video. And im so glad that channels like this exist. Cause it's really helping at me and my buddy as new riders in the sport. And it's just really fun to notice the difference from what I did instinctively to what I can learn from videos like you guys produce.

    You're bang on the money for definitions (stoppie/rolling stoppie but they're UK motorbike definitions). Im pretty bad at them but learning on a motorbike (super sports bikes like R1/Fireblade etc), where you cant use body weight, you use front brake to slow rapidly compressing front forks and unloading the rear, once they're compressed full lock on the brakes and the rear comes up with mass rotating about front axle.

    Sorry but somehow listening to Linnea from 2:22 as the excuses fly.. then tapers away to an almost inaudible ".. And.. I just feel like.. I don't know (mumble)" is the funnest thing tonight... q8D I've had easier experiences trying to get people to do a clutch take off on a motorbike... "OK.. If anything happens... just pull IN the clutch handle.... OK... You need to let the clutch out slowly" [gives the motor FULL THROTTLE to which I quickly grab the clutch before hilarity ensues....] "OK... so hold the throttle HERE [setting it just above idle] and do NOT change it... now... let the clutch out slowly..." [Lets the clutch out instantly & stalls] "ok so you need to let the clutch out SLOWLY!" [Lets the clutch out instantly & stalls] "ok so you need to let the clutch out REALLY SLOWLY!" [Lets the clutch out slowly till it starts to pull.... then lets it right out instantly & stalls] "OK... I think I have this.... You need to let the clutch out slowly until you can feel it starting to pull.. then hold it there". [Lets the clutch out slowly till it starts to pull.... then lets it right out instantly & stalls] "Thats ok.. we've almost got it..." (And this is the point where I discovered the perfect way to teach a clutch to Newbies). "ok.. so let the clutch out.... slowly... until you can feel the bike just starting to strain... then pull it back in..." [Lets the clutch out slowly till it starts to pull.... then pulls it back in.. but there's full throttle again] "ok we're almost there... just try not to give it any more throttle than this [Sets a nice high idle] ... Slowly let out the throttle till it starts to pull.. then back in... [They let out the throttle out till it starts to pull... then back in]... "Excellent... now (rinse repeat)..." [same results repeated perfectly] "Now just hold the throttle a little longer before pulling it back in..." "and now a little longer"... [bike starting to move forward a little further each attempt...] and finally.... Well your going now.. you can let the clutch out. SO.... after watching this... I think I'll start with the rider running VERY SLOW.. and "JAM ON THAT BRAKE". (This is actually what I do teaching people to just ride off road.. I get them to realise loosing the front end is not the end of the world... then see how far they can ride with the front completely locked (I can get about 2m (6ft)... They get used to the front brake.. they learn how to put a foot down... they learn how to release the brake before putting the foot down... all in one stint on a flat gravelly road. (I also think everyone should be forced to run a track a couple of times with NO REAR BRAKE so they learn how to scrub in a straight line then corner without brakes...)
