Maintaining existing trails and building new ones should be done as a group effort, on land where it is legal for you to do so. Why not find out if your local trail centre has volunteering days?
Mountain biking as a sport would really struggle without well-maintained trails and new trails being built. Once you know that you’re good to go ahead and maintain the trails, or build some new ones, here are our top things to look out for.

@Laura Vance hit the nail on the head. I’d bet in most places (National
Forest, National Parks, any other privately owned land) it’s illegal to
alter trails. IMBA does a very good job at maintaining trails where I live.
Too many people building trails and an area can start to resemble a sand
dune.
Nice vid, would you do another video for how to make a 4x track?? I have a
little space in the yard and thought a 4x track would fill it :B
What shovel is there? SHIMANO or SRAM?
