Imagine telling the coach you don’t want to take that line when you’re practicing that line
I cringed so hard
It’s called the Ooopty-Oop, Mississippi Valley State averages over 40 points a game with that inside line
Can you give a time stamp

I'm a mtn biker who stumbled onto this youtube series and now I'm hooked on it. Might be time to look at buying a dirt bike. Thanks for igniting the spark and fanning the flame 👍
😬😬
I’m in the same boat, I need to get a bike again!
Lol I did the opposite I can say it’s very costly compared to MTB
Watching these got me back on a bike after 20yes off.......
Loving life now 🤣
imagine all the former pro riders who are saying why didn't I start a you tube channel.. I've talked to a few at Pala that don't want to give away training tips for free , I hope it continues to grow for you.. Your great at communicating to the vet rider like me. Thanks!
I had reservations about giving away all my knowledge for free, but I quickly realized all it’s doing is making it easier to sell out all my classes!!! And it helps those who can’t afford to attend a class. Win win
Thanks!
You're building friends. Friends WILL support you when the opportunity arises. I've not became a member but have bought a shirt. If membership was a little cheaper (for me) being an old guy that doesn't race.. id buy that or a lifetime membership was available i would probably do that also.
But Aj Ronnie Mac keeps telling me to drag that inside foot. 😀
Gotta drag a foot when your riding the screaming eagle
That guy in the husky 250 was a bit cocky the whole time😂.
He probably could have taught the class. You know a local novice knows all the pro tricks!!!!!! Hahahaha
@@firemanrh taught?
@@firemanrh im disliking this comment
Really happy about your success! You’re a great teacher man!
Thanks!
@@AjCatanzaro Can you come to Tasmania and do some coaching :p
I'm an old vet rider and must admit it's fantastic that you help Mx lads evolve into more experience riders, it took me many many years to pick up riding to a standard others won't get hurt out on the track switching lines etc . Again many thanks keep up the great work kid
As a superbike rider with some supermoto experience getting into dirt riding, I'm watching your videos and nearly nothing I know is crossing over.
That’s the tough thing going from street to dirt, a lot of the technique is literally the exact OPPOSITE!
Just what I was looking for, for this upcoming weekend. Spot on!
And peoples... join us on Patreon!
As an off road ,enduro guy, I appreciate the cornering tips. Free speed that really adds up .
Love the tips.... Keep em coming 💯
You’re on a roll with everything you do! Great job!
man this channel is gold, congrats!
Awesome Tips and video Aj 💯💯
Great content, as always. Learn something new with every video - glad I went back to watch this one.
Thanks for all the tips, I'm loving hitting the track and trying it out all the way down here in Cape Town, South Africa
You don’t understand how much these videos helps. Honestly helps me get through the day too. Great content. Can’t wait for the future
I got so excited when you said you were coming to Arizona Then realized this was from last year.. I love your vids and tips man!
thank you AJ! for all of this great tutorial about riding and proper tecnique ❣
Greate video,practiced front brake cornering this weekend.Works,greate fun!
Great video, maybe you can make a corner guide video to where you record yourself hitting various types of corners and slow the video down and talk over what you’re doing step by step. Thanks again
Yep I’ll definitely be able to do that with the new camera I just ordered!
@@AjCatanzaro stoked!
@AJ Big Congrats with your Black Rifle Coffee sponsorship! I'll check them out now! Please kee doing more of the rut turn videos with all the different examples as you have been doing! Thanks!
Thank you for sharing always so helpful.
You just sold me when you said black rifle coffee, I know this is a year old but I’m stoked
I swear I get more and more confidence and better lap times even just listening to the correct way to execute anything on the track i hopefully get to do some training with ya in the near future. I think its time that I show the world what this good ole Arkansas boy can do on a bike and this is prolly my gateway to it.
Binging all your videos and it feels like I’m in your class for real
New member of patreon group! Thanks AJ! God bless you brother 🙏
👍🏼👍🏼
Not sure if anyone is saying this but. Really loving the behind the scenes content and not to mention all the instruction. Super awesome
Talking to my dad, told me I need to use front break to ride corners. Never have before. Glad to see this video so I can learn how to do it. Thank you so much!
Your kit looked awsome. Like to see a vid on more in depth break dragging in turns please
Just found your channel so stoked. My son just got back into it with New Gas Gas.125. miss Spyder MX in Florida I'm close.
Hopefully you can do a class at Englishtown or FOD in 21
yeah that would be great both tracks are great
@@whilling3301 Fod would be awesome !!
Y’all doin the hare scramble Sunday?
@@Nikbush023 nahhh was thinking ab it man
I would definitely be there...
Exactly what i needed. I can't wait to get my RM125 out and try using the front brakes to cornering and learn to ride a rod. That's something I always struggled with. Also i have to be better to lean the bike. It's not a big issue on a MC but i struggling with it on a MX.
Good videos 👍 keep it up 🥳
Black rifle coffee supporting you that’s badass they sent us out free coffee when I was gone
Thank you will take that tip the next Gorman run... been kicking out my leg all the time...
Youve helped me improve my corner speed by 6-9%
Ayeeee I go to canyon mx in az! Hopefully I’ll see ya there
Brought my first ever bike in October of 2020. Your videos have kept me positive & going hard each time I get on It thus giving me the knowledge I need. I appreciate you my dude! 🤙
Love that! 👍🏼
@@AjCatanzaro love your videos & appreciate you for making them!
BEST TEACHER
Thanks 😬
Cheers from east Texas! Good stuff A.J.
I'm going to try to be at Kaufman.
Hope to see you there!
great video
Great video dude! Been watching them for a while. Also just found out that it’s you that i see right next door to where i work in Portland all the time
that might be me! i’m his brother. AJ doesn’t live in Portland anymore
@@MIKEYC Oh no way! So you probably hear my loud ass Subie pull in every morning? haha
River dale raceway in toutle washington!! Just gonna slide that on the table lol, love the content!
I was there Friday, the track was perfect
That track is terrible.
ayo big boys form was good asl 🙌🏼
Thanks for another good one AJ, Black rifle coffee got to love them conservative companies!!!
come back to AZ, pissed i started the academy to late
When I was learning to ride my CR250 , I kept to to the right denting my expansion chamber and braking my front clutch lever. I can;t remeber how many times I had the pipe cut and welded and than finally replaced by a new one. I finally bought a chrome plated expansion chamber and decided if I was going to fall over it would be to the left . i finally stopped following over.
Good video, I need to take your class! I've been caution flagging at the Nationals and Amateur Races (High Point, Red Bud and Crawfordsville) and I noticed the pro's use that front brake a lot and the majority of amateurs don't use it at all. Your video helped me understand the need and the benefit of using it and now I want to get good at it. Thanks Aj!
I have a hard time believing that the majority of amateurs don't use their front brake. It seems like everyone would be blowing through the turn at the end of a straight.
@@jridenour31 It might be fun to for AJ to have the students do some exercise and then place himself so he can watch that right hand. All the pro's use one finger on the clutch and one on the brake (I'm ole's school (vet) and we use two or three fingers back in the day, no more) the pro's they modulate that clutch finger like it is a throttle. Cheers!
already sold out of your AZ class! that’s awesome for you but i wish i was sooner, i missed out!!! hopefully you come back and do another in AZ because i’d love to attend one of your classes.
Cody, I just booked a second day there for Friday, February 26th!!! It will be on the website today. Hope you can make it
It just went up!

@@AjCatanzaro i just signed up! i’ll see you in February!! 🤘🏻
Black rifle can’t wait
hell yeah BRC gettin involved with you? fuck yes
I’m pumped!
Love your videos, they are very informative. On flat corners with no rut would you put your leg out?
You sound like me 5:29 "aye yai yai."
always that one.
Any chance your going to be doing any trainings in Michigan?
I've learned so much from watching your videos just got back into riding this yr and the progression I've made in a short amount of time is crazy. But I notice in my corners I don't drop my inside elbow its always my outside elbow I drop soon as notice usually half thru a corner I correct amd alot more stable
I wish we had dirt like that up here in the pnw.
Such useful tips trying to learn that front brake lean angle have a bad habit of dragging the back brake
Yes BRCC! Huge congrats!
Great video keep them coming. Could you tell me which GoPro mount that guy used. I’ve been looking for something different than the top of the helmet mount.
Come to Aus!!
Maybe for 2021 😬
Wait so AJ, I love about 1 hour east of Tamahawk in Maryland. What’s the schedule, is it still open ride days on the weekends and Wednesdays? Or is it different. It’s been a couple years since I was there last. I remember one of the OG Supercross tracks you had there😂.
Hey! I have the sweatshirt! BRRRRRRRAAAAAAPPPPP!!!!
6th :P
While you're making those adjustments using the front brake, are you still applying the same amount of throttle? so it's throttle + front brake?
Good question. I’m backing off the throttle as I get more aggressive on the front to initiate more lean angle. But backing off very easy, not just letting off the throttle completely
@@AjCatanzaro Thank you, AJ.
So in a deep sand turn where backing off the throttle can cause the front to dive in the sand, does it makes sense to give a steady throttle during the turn (after the braking zone ends) while applying the front brake?
Sir, if possible plz make video on standing cornering technique
OMG OMG YOU ARE COMING TO KAUFMAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THAT IS ONLY 15MIN AWAY FROM ME!!
Yep!!!
@@AjCatanzaro I'm filling out the sign up right now!
I think you would get a lot of entry’s if you did a training at washougal
I Hate Ruts! To do that would be a challenge for me bro! 🏁
Congrats on BRC. I have their coffee. Love it!
Thanks! I’m pumped!
Bought a Dango mount. Pro tip AJ, sign up as Amazon Affiliate, and leave the link in description. That way you get paid a little at least. Solid product!
Not a bad idea. I’m working on getting an endorsement directly through Dango!
AJ you have responded to one of my messages before your class December 5th and Milton Florida is the closest you have ever been to me and I am curious how much it is to come to your classes and if you have any openings
There are still spots open for Milton, FL class! You can click this link to sign up

@@AjCatanzaro thank u AK sincerely Jeremy
First I like the video, then I start watching.
Thank you AJ. Very good instructor!
Lol I still wanna see someone do 40 push-ups
“Your corner”? Lol
Nice vid 👍🏻
AJ. Where are you located? Considering a class. I’m seeing all these trees so I’m guessing the Midwest. I’m in Indiana and considering a few different people from guys like you.
I’m located in Virginia, but offer classes all over the country. I’m sure I’ll be in Indiana for 2021
If I was in the US not the UK I'd be on your school's.
Thor gear with a Fox helmet hurts my ocd.
The fans want to know your thoughts on neck braces!
He would never tell someone not to use it, but he stopped using them because of the limit that it put at the back of the helmet in the attack position. There might be more to it, but I know I've heard him say that.
@@kings17court I still use mine even though it does feel like your head is fighting it, but I REALLY like the idea of protecting my neck so it’s one of those things that doesn’t bother me too much since it’s really good protection. I’d say for anyone who is not a pro rider racing for money that using a neck brace is a great idea.
@@spreaddeezhazelnutz7511 I'm with you. A lot of pros have made the decision to not wear them, but there are some elite pros that do. Villopoto ALWAYS did and still does. You don't get much better, or accomplished, than Villopoto. Musquin and Barcia are 2 others. I like for my son to use it, because I too think it's good protection that makes sense. But it's a personal decision.
I stand somewhere in the middle with them. Same with knee braces. I just had a good friend break his c5 c6 and was extremely lucky he didn’t get paralyzed. He didn’t have a neck brace on. In fact, his doctor said that based on how his head was impacted by the bike that ran him over, If he had a neck brace on he would’ve been internally decapitated and 100% paralyzed.
The same obviously cannot be said for other types of impacts where the neck brace will save you.
My view is the same on knee braces. If I had knee braces on this weekend when I crashed into a vertical embankment and crushed my leg in between the bike and the dirt, I am confident the carbon braces would’ve snapped my leg. But my softer foam guards saved me. In that situation.
I personally feel like I’m a more safe rider when I have the freedom and flexibility on the bike, which is why I choose no brace. However, I wouldn’t push that view on someone else. I just urge people who wear a neck brace to make sure it fits properly so they can actually get into the correct stance on the bike
@@AjCatanzaro Thanks for sharing!! I agree that more people need to learn how to properly fit neck braces in order for the neck braces to be helpful instead of harmful :)
My only concern with feet up cornering is catching the inside foot on the rut. Even *I* sometimes lean over enough for that. 😬
Yep, but if it’s tight enough to the bike it doesn’t matter if your inside foot is scraping on rut! Now there’s some situations where if the rut was created by a slow rider, the inner wall of the rut will be very steep, which maybe then you would need to get inside leg high and tight. But the more you lean, the more your footpeg should eat away at the inner wall of the rut
If I use a bit of rear brake in a rut instead of front is there a difference or is that fine. I’ve use rear Naturally since I started riding I’m good in ruts but I don’t know if I would be even better with front I’m on 85. Look at my profile pic that me in a rut. Pls comment.
You should NOT use rear brake in a rut. Rear brake will stand the bike up
I’m no good at ruts, so I’ll just ride the inside!!!! Total disregard for the instructions being given!!!!!! Hahahaha
Sorry I am sure this has been asked before but what GoPro mount do you use? Thanks in advance.
Dango Mount
@@AjCatanzaro thank you kindly sir.
that kid in all black that was talking about the inside rut has the exact same helmet as me lol
I know kossa kountrys shop burned down are you still planning on doing it there?
Yes, as of now that’s still the plan!
@@AjCatanzaro if I register now and the plan changes will I be refunded?
Are you planning on opening any more spots in Arizona?
Thanks for all the content!
Hey Jackson, seeing as day 1 sold out in 24 hours I have officially booked another class at Canyon Mx on Friday, February 26th! It will be available on the website by tomorrow 😬😬

Yz125 would be perfect bike
Hey, put Chad Gochenour in your video’s every now and then, he grew up being such a natural on 2 wheels and then to own one heck of a track
I do need to get Chad in some videos. He’s still super fast!!!
@@AjCatanzaro he’s my younger cousin, awesome to watch him
What exactly do you mean by inside elbow? I feel like just watching this though gave me a better idea about hitting ruts, I gotta try this out next time I ride a track..
Keep it high in the corner not down by your side
Have to keep whichever elbow is on the inside UP so that your body doesn’t fade inside of bike
Aj Catanzaro ohhh I see, that makes sense! Thanks a lot!
Aj Catanzaro I know it’s been a couple days but I’d like to thank you for the tip! I went riding yesterday and rode the track at the svra I was at a little bit and even just thinking about my elbow and keeping it up I felt like my corner speed and hitting ruts were better! Thanks a ton!
The foot out is second nature. Man, it would be tough for me to break
Agreed, very hard to break but feels (for me, anyway) much better and less likely to topple over.
you guys look so awesome i am 17 and just got a kdx 200 dad won't buy me a yamaha 250f
In the future you should do a collaboration with Jeff Walker
Yes I’d like to!
Does anyone know what brand helmet clip he uses for his gopro?
I would like to know this as well!
I’m pretty sure it’s a Dango mount.
Have you ever checked out mx 23 in PA it’s such a sick track and it’s not to far from you.
Haven’t been there yet, but I know the owner. Plan to be there next year!
@@AjCatanzaro let’s gooooooo I’m so excited
@@matthewrichards881 I go to mx23 in mass, is there one in pa as well?

Please come to SoCal. I know our laws and taxes suck ass but the Moto community is Yuge!!!!!
Inside elbow up or down??
UP
@@AjCatanzaro thanks man 👍🏻 Your channel is great thanks again for the helpful videos
You should teach me to ride. I can be your Hellen Keller to your Anne Sullivan. If you can get me to go fast, you'll go down in history and people will sing songs about you.
Might wanna double check that tittle
Lol oops! Fixed it!
Might want to double check your spelling of “title” 😜😜
