Hi Gary. We have a track section that consists of three doubles that get progressively longer. It is a relatively high speed section (3rd gear on 1st 4th on last two jumps). The jumps are about 3 to 4 foot tall with kind of a steep face. The take off tends to kick the rear end up. Is there an adjustment in body position that should be made to prevent the back end down?
Gary,
Can you recommend one of your videos for "landing on the throttle"?ย I know that I have to have my weight over the front of the bike to counteract the acceleration G forces of landing off a jump WFO.ย I think my issue is being hesitant when accelerating off bigger jumps (3rd gear wide, or 4th etc) to lean into the takeoff for fear of going nose down in the air and over the bars when I land.ย SO, when I land on the throttle I have to quickly let off because the front end comes up and if I stay on it I'll loop out.ย
Also, I tend to jump nose up when taking off in a taller gear at low RPM.ย ย Any tips?ย
Thanks for all the content!

Hey Gary, I was wondering how to access the PDF Files for the Training Manuals? Also, will the Audio CDs be added to the new Streaming platform?ย
Hey Gary, for many years I have struggled to keep my elbows up throughout corners. I have my moments where I do have proper technique but those dropping elbows always seem to come back. Any suggestions? Thanks, JW.
