The worst of our training vids! 😂︱Cross Training Trials

Amongst the misguided and inaccurate information in our training vids have been some real whoppers. This is a compilation of the absolute worst trials riding tips we've provided this year. Compiled for our club's end-of-year break up. Enjoy! Visit us at http://www.wdtc.org.au The back brake stabilizes the bike on the way down. The front brake provides most of the braking pow On loose terrain should be able to apply enough brake to where both wheels are just starting to lose grip - that should give you maximum braking power. However, if there is a clear track after the drop off you can simply launch the bike off and treat it as a jump. In some extreme situations, you may need to jump the bike but on to a steep descent in which case you need to keep the front end low. This is definitely an advanced move and something you will want to build up to slowly. There does come a point where the descent is so steep you begin thinking of upgrading your life insurance. Alternatively just pull the clutch in and don't worry about engine braking - chances are you are on a two-stroke anyway! If there is a drop off too steep to clear your bashplate (skidpan), you will need to de-weight the bike to clear it. On a steep descent you usually don't want to build up extra speed, so usually you will just release the front brake just before you reach the drop off. Your front suspension will decompress and you can pull back on the handlebars to lighten the front end enough to clear the drop off. When caution is the better part of valor, simply take the five points and live to ride another section. If it all goes wrong, don't worry about saving the bike and going over the handlebars - throw the bike to one side and look after yourself. It can be handy at times to lock up the rear wheel to slide the bike around if there is a turn on the slope or right at the bottom, but resist the urge to lock up the rear wheel otherwise. Having one finger always on the clutch is useful here as you can pull the clutch in if the rear wheel locks up and not stall the bike.
