Duane_Bosch Posted February 8, 2017 Share That's exactly how I cracked my last full face lol,slipped a corner and ate dirtYeah except you weren't several seconds up on a World Champs run, Had a huge crash within meters of the finish line and STILL managed to recover and come second. Apart from that..... Exactly the same. Edited February 8, 2017 by Duane_Bosch Captain Fastbastard Mayhem, Capricorn and Kalahari Vegmot 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never been there Edited February 8, 2017 by mongooser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Dob Posted February 8, 2017 Share Great. The trails there are a mix of berms, small rock gardens and small jumps and pumps.The skills session itself, though, relies heavily on drills on a grassy patch before hand to get the technique and muscle memory right.

T-Bob Posted February 8, 2017 Share 1. Don't take riding advice from people on an internet forum2. Go on to youtube and look up Fabien Barel flat corners. He's a 2x DH world champion who's made a bunch of instructional video's. That Fabien video sorted out all my cornering issues. Keep going back and checking it every now and then just to brush up and then go practice in a parking lot for a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep going back and checking it every now and then just to brush up and then go practice in a parking lot for a bit.I did the left right left thing on dirt at fast speed and slipped out well compressing the fork,it works quite well to compress in corners that are tight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
