I finally remembered the camera when we went riding. He is doing pretty good, this was his first time on a trail and his first time jumping. He started riding around last Christmas and only really started to get into it last month or so. The first vid is on a nice muddy hill that he almost went down on, but saved it.

Nice! Start em young! I still remember my 1st jump… after my 1st jump, I knew never to stay sitting down on the seat when going off of one 🤣 I didn’t wreck, but I smashed my balls sooo hard 🙂 Good times! ---

he is 6 years old right now. My 5 year old rides it but is not comfortable enough on it to ride it in the woods yet. The shitty thing is, is that I can’t teach him anything. I have ridden a couple of times, but I am pretty clueless about it. My neighbor will watch him in the front street and instruct a little, but he pretty much figures it all out on his own. ---

My neighbor will watch him in the front street and instruct a little, but he pretty much figures it all out on his own. sometimes its best when u learn things on your own. My dad knew how to work on mine, i figured out how to ride it. XR’s are the shit ---
