I'm 43, riding forest and road since I was 10. last year I wanted to learn mx. Found myself in the 3/4 zone and guilty of blipping. AJ, your tutorials are the reason why I'm now a confident jumper. Much appreciation from Australia cheers
Love it! Thanks for the comment. Shoutout Aus
@AjCatanzaro I also thank you much for your content! I totally understand that you need to do this for a living or else you would not have the time to. At the same time you still put out a lot of good information supporting all riders who wish to take it in and that says a lot man!! The world's moto community needs that so bad!!
You're a whippersnapper. 1978 here ;-)
Name a dude doing more for motocross than aj... he has the best technique to teach aswell hands down one of the most stylish dudes on a bike when hes not actually teaching
Thank you so much.
AJ is awesome. I tell all my riding friends to watch his videos. When he races next year will definitely be rooting for him.
Wish I’d had this type of instruction 40 yrs ago. Last week I jumped my first 90 footer in more than 20 yrs! THANK YOU, AJ!
Amazing!
This is phenomenal. Good for him teaching the next generation of motocross.
This is hands down the best video on jumping I’ve seen. I live in the bounce zone. Ready to start clearing the local 80 foot table top every lap.
I've lived in that 3/4 zone my entire MX life. Excellent video. See you in MA on the 20th.
We’ll get you out of that zone on the 20th 😁 see you then!
Wish you had some classes in Korea. I'm in the 3/4 zone, drives me crazy because I KNOW what I'm doing wrong, my throttle hand just won't listen to my head.
a following demo would be nice to illustrate the talking points.
all great info!
Great information!! As always! Thanks for sharing to make us safer and better riders!!! I just realized I'm a 3/4 jumper on the big boys and have always said I'm great at casing the jumps if needed (thanks to you!!), but I would like to clear them one day, so just a little more speed on the way in and I think I'm golden!!! Let's go!!
Less confidence means taller gear? I'll be hitting everything in 17th then. 😉
😂😂😝
my son is a beginner motocross racer just learning how to jump and I must say your videos are super helpful. Thank you for posting
Thank you so much! Thats what its all about!
Needed this video. Thanks.
He explains things well. I’m in the garage relaxing getting my dirt bike out the shop this morning.
Great coaching! I was from the Gary Semics training camp.
I've been looking for this kind of video for so long. More please, my 5 year old is already catching air and I'm almost all out of pointers
I was living in the bounce zone for a while until some kid younger than me. I was 9 at the time and he was like 6 years old. He told me that I jumped like a baby bird. lol. Since that day I started to clear all the jumps. It's harsh when it comes from a kid that is much smaller and younger than you.
Oof definitely hits different.
This is one of my local tracks…would have been nice to see a demo on the big triple step up.
Hopefully one day you will come to Montana and I can attend one of these classes with my son . I know we would get SO much out of a session with you ! Especially my son .
Excellent 👍
LMNT really is the best hydration out there. Everyone at our house drinks at least one every single day. Your skin will actually feel softer.
AJ bring motocross back to high schools. You'd make a good highschool mx coach
Lmnt is awesome. Can’t believe you use that too. I’m a sanitation worker in NYC. In summer I sweat out all my water on the route. That stuff saves me from cramping up. Worth the money.
Bro, you were at NJMP FOD !? I’ve ridden there a lot, my home track. Nice Tracks!👍
Hey AJ just tried to order and that discount code doesn’t seem to work
Maybe someone can advise me. I am a newbie, 46 years old, honda hrf450r. I keep my throttle as consistent as I can over the crest of the ramp, but it still feels like the bike drops like a stone below me, causing me to almost go over the top. Should I increase my throttle a bit?
Stoked that you’re sponsored by LMNT. I love that stuff. It is amazing for rehydrating after intense exercise.
Problem is jumps sort of close out of turns. Especially on a 2 stroke. If your corner speed is not there, then you have to accelerate harder. I find even trying this in higher gear on a 2 stroke scary.
I've had so many air wheelies, swabs, etc on jumps with 2 strokes, as a vet novice rider. I have a very deep ingrained fear of jumping.
I have switched to a 150sx instead of tc 250. That 250 is wild, I finally went to soft map, yellow PV spring, and PV turned in almost halfway. Still really just too much bike for my level.
So how do I get out of the 3/4 zone? And not go that bit too much that I OJ, particularly on big jumps?
Idk how big you think big is, but most jumps are 3rd gear 3/4 throttle in my experience. Better to overjump a bit than to bounce. This past weekend I overjumped a 50+ ft long 30ft high step up with a steep landing twice, with no issues, if I bounced it that probably would’ve been catastrophic. Realize that most jumps you only need to go around 35mph to clear. Some bigger ones require 45+. I highly recommend following someone around your speed that is doing the jump you want to try and go ever so slightly faster than them. Also once you commit the first time you need to be 100% committed or you will case it. I lived in the 3/4 zone for many medium sized jumps (mainly doubles because of bad crashes trying to commit to them and not giving it enough speed) when I was racing 65s and 85s. Now I’m on a 250 I got the balls to commit and it’s such a breath of fresh air. Once you do it the first time you realize it was that easy the whole time and you were just in your head about it.
Its not the jumps its the grooves going up the face that scares me
We have several videos on Rutted jump faces on the Moto Academy UA-cam channel.
Eyes forward and up helps you pick your line an gives you a mental picture of what's under you cause you've already seen it cause your looking forward
20 mins from my home and I didn’t know lol
Gosh darnit! Next time 😁
Know what flavor of lmnt is not good? chocolate.
landed on my head a lot
Videographer 5:35 how did you miss the palm branch laying in the shot…?
what a great vid... can't believe your giving all your tips away for free !
The universe rewards those who share, happy days
😁😁😁
I go so slow up jump faces my bike bogs and i just barely make it! Yep I need to go faster, my brain just won't let me!
Too bad I couldn't join the class when he visited Athens /Greece!!!
PLEASE come again!!!
PS: Never change the end title music!!!
Would love to come back!
I live in the bounce zone 👋
Can’t get passed the fear of the 3/4 zone(1/2 zone)…
👍
at 20 seconds
wtf are you doing in the caption photo
Telling Noobs to go up a gear or two off jumps.. hmm?? Haha
Not in the air.. prior to the jump
Taller gear for less experienced riders will almost always be more safe 😁 don’t think of the taller gear as more speed (although it can be if you want it to be), the taller gear is meant to create smoother & more controllable power 👍🏼
I get it.. but also might cause a beginner to bog out. Or god forbid stall it on the face of the jump.
@@RVmotoTravel stall it while moving?
@@trentenr7255 off the face of a steep jump, yes
first
Can I get a refund for class at toutle mx? Because you just gave everything away for free. JK.
😂😂
😁😁😁😁 not until I get a chance to ride your KDX 😝
