The 'Cuttie', also known as a 'Roost' or 'Schralp' is the spice of mountain biking. Sometimes it is done intentionally, sometimes not, either way, it adds style and 'Steeze' to your riding. Today Blake will show you a technique that will help you perfect your 'cutties' and have you doing them every chance you get!
⚠️ATTENTION⚠️
While it can be fun, shralping can damage trails so choose when and where you're shralping wisely, and spare a thought for the trail builders. If you're damaging trails, fix or repair them where you can!

Coming from the transition to BMX in the mid to late 70s, this was called a kickout. If done with wheel off the ground you could kick aluminum pop cans off the road, or really smash a steel trash can (...oops....delinquents). If done with the ground slide, it was effective for kicking up dirt or dust onto someone. Lifting the back wheel was the first training step into bunny hops, so this kick out move was the easiest trick to perform with the new found skill. It felt like a whole new world of street tricks when we came from wheelies on stingrays and 10-speeds with curled handlebars.

When I was learning this I was allowing my trunk to bend when i pushed my hips out.. preventing the horizontal movement from transferring to the bike. Keep your trunk rigid.

Its crazy that I learnt this and then some on cement skateparks on a brakeless bmx. When it comes to which direction feels more comfortable, typically its your forward foot's side, as its also the natural way you would typically spin a bike. You are also applying slight pedal pressure inwards on the bike, some people even let their backfoots heel touch the frame a bit, and their toe pressing on the crankarm. I remember a fun one is getting it to do a 180 to fakie without actually leaving the ground. Helps to have harder tires, and is probably not advisable on tubeless setups with low PSI where the tire can end up burping off the rim and get your gross fluids all over the trail which prolly isnt environmentally friendly (such a stupid feature of tubeless, I prefer tubes). I roost where I can on the MTB, but its not a great time of year for it right now, mud is really grippy and if you do happen to slide, your goin on the ground, wood and roots are a deathtrap right now here in BC, Canada.

Is this the first step in a scandi?

@DevinDeVore 5 ай бұрын

A little but with a scandi your on the brakes a little. Body position totally different with a scandi. More centered and low using legs more than throwing hips like Blake is showing. Scandi more stirring the whip setup into corner.

@thesquirrel082190 23 күн бұрын

these are not cutties, its more like the unweighted skid you do when setting up for a Scandi flick. a proper cuttie you end up introducing more lean to the bike as the rear breaks loose, not less. this also increases the grip in the rear tire, despite the fact that it is still sliding
