Surv0MTB Posted May 13, 2015 Posted May 13, 2015 That move just looks like a burm destroyer. DH okes in Tokai would go nuts seeing that.
RockCoach Posted May 15, 2015 Posted May 15, 2015 so basically you lock your back wheel to skid thereby damaging the trail? great ideaNope. No touching of the rear brake. Used to tighten your line in a corner without slowing down especially when it's loose and you dont want the front to wash out. Done by shifting of bodyweight slightly more over the front than usual and a quite sudden twisting of the body - outside foot back - simultaneously moving your weight rearwards and pumping down with your legs. You ultimately want your feet to twist on your (flat) pedals to get the bike to tighten its line but this action needs to start with your head and shoulders. Your hips and feet (and hopefully the bike) will follow... Pins on flat pedals aid in this fast cornering, twisting process. Haven't tried it with cleats but I fear you might uncleat completely .

franco2017 Posted May 15, 2015 Posted May 15, 2015 I lock the back brakes and twist the bike sideways with my feet.The faster you ride the more spectacular your roost....hehe.

Headshot Posted May 28, 2015 Posted May 28, 2015 Considering your relatively pedestrian pace, that was not a bad little poof of dust at all :-) Just go faster and pomp harder.
2 X 2 Posted May 28, 2015 Posted May 28, 2015 When I was little, we called it a broddy - I suppose it was from the word Broady or broadee. It happens when you swing out your back wheel when cornering and it is more effective if you use the back brake. It whill also help if you put your inside leg's foot close to the ground to prevent you from falling. Kap 'n broddy!

porqui Posted May 29, 2015 Posted May 29, 2015 More like a chicken or a broiler than a rooster. Maybe Rouxtjie is right about the 1000.
