We build and ride an entirely new medium size dirt jump line with my kids in our ridiculous backyard. This is the full build from beginning to end. We started with the new Roll-In that we built in the last video -    • Building our Backyard Jump Roll-In!  

Then we moved a ton of dirt, built framed up wooden landings with lumber I made using my Alaska Mill on a Stihl 460, and then we built wooden lips for the take off's. Of course ride the finished jumps on our BMX bikes and MTB Dirt Jumpers.

    Not gonna lie, I’ll probably just hit that new jump line and stay the hell away from the bigger one. Well done! 👏
  • Eric is the dad I wish I had growing up, watching him teach his kids all the cool stuff is amazing and exactly the type of dad I want to be
  • As a father, this has to be one of the coolest videos! I can’t wait to be able to build jumps and tracks for my son!

    Not even kidding I’m enjoying this series as much as Matt Jones back yard build insane stuff 👍
  • My family was passing by Eric’s place while he and his boys were building these jumps. He took a moment to chat it up and snap a pic with my son who races mountain bikes, it totally made his day. Thank you for being a class act and great ambassador for our sport!

    Absolutely loved this. Little dude is a total badass... as the dad of a tiny person, it's pretty amazing seeing you teach and inspire your kids to work hard and strive for something great. I hope that my daughter and I have something like this when she gets older. Great video. Keep it up.
