    keeping your inside knee tucked up tight against the shroud and your toe pointed inwards really helps keep you balanced in the rut

    eyes up and patience is definitely the best way to remove bad habits, it feels slow as hell at first but once you practice it gets quicker and easier

    My struggle is trusting the sidewall of the ruts, and berms. I can’t shake the feeling that the dirt is going to collapse just as *I* ride over it. It’s irrational. I know. But I’m getting better.

    do you have any specific advice for a 2 stroke rider, also what state is this in

    • @rmatvmc
      @rmatvmc  8 місяців тому +1

      These same tips will helpful on a 2-Stroke as well. Just keep in mind the differences between the engines, you will have less engine braking which means you might need to get on the brake a little harder or earlier depending on your skill level. Keep mixing that gas! -Nick -KX 250 2 Stroke-

    Select a better rut for next lap using your peripheral vision with the other riders as indicators. Fitting a series of rut selections whilst brapping your way to slay your rutted presence can keep you busy.
    Anyone still brapping through the outside of corners?

    Please one about deep ruts on jump faces

    • @rmatvmc
      @rmatvmc  Рік тому +1

      We're working on something for this! But it takes the right jump face to film it. Unfortunately, we don't have a lot of sandy tracks out here which usually have jump faces with deep ruts. But if we get to a track that has them, we will for sure film one! - Chase

      @josephgillam9185 Рік тому +1

      Keeps the front wheel planted better, more stable when small amount of pressure is kept on it

    • @rmatvmc
      @rmatvmc  Рік тому +1

      This is a good tip, but it's also a pretty advanced move. I would tell most riders to focus on the tips in this video first and then try that technique. But yes, this can help keep the front stuck to the ground better, but it is also an easy way to mess up the turn if not done correctly. - Chase

    These guys absolutely rip. I highly recommend the RMX Academy. There is no better value for what you get and the track is prepped deep and challenging preparing you for real race conditions. Can’t say enough good about Riley and McCoy.

      I guess when I was younger I should have concentrated on corners vs going fast and keeping up with my riding buddies.
