How To Jump A HardTail Mountain Bike: The Ride Series MTB Skills Clinics Rich Drew

Jumping a hardtail mountain bike is very similar to jumping one with full suspension, you just don't have that advantage of that rear shock. This ‪@specializedbicycles‬ Fuse was a blast, I even had fun on those flat pedals! The Coler Bike Preserve here in Bentonville is such a rad spot and it was even cooler having my man Cip Micula to coach through this one. He's got a mean latte art game and now his jump game is getting stepped up!

The jump basics still apply. Not having rear suspension certainly gives it a more direct feel, but you have to remember to keep your hips over the bottom bracket. It's also much less forgiving when you land, so be ready.
