    Best explanation and visual representation of where to look in a corner that I've seen so far. I now realize I'm either looking at my fender or 100 feet away. This helped a lot, thank you! Awesome stuff. 👍✌️

    Such a great tip on re-gripping and something that is hardly ever mentioned or spoken about. Will be trying to implement this into my riding as I get the inconsistent results as mentioned in this video. Brilliant 👌 Keep up the great work AJ 👌 I love watching these, good luck in the coming supercross season 🍀

    I just wish I could have seen all his videos before I started riding 15 years ago and never had gotten all these bad habits that one gets from riding the wrong way over the years. I did had a coach as a kid, but the wat AJ teaches is superior and makes it so much easier to apply.

    I've not done any MX but a lot of road racing. I keep my head always square to my shoulders and my :swing thought" is to keep my nose on my line. If oyu try to keep your eyes focused at a point in front of the bike, your brain is trapped in a constant loop of re-focus and re-compute and your body reacts in chain long-duration, periodic readjustments. SO, if you in a corner for 3 seconds, only 1 of thise seconds include active control. The rest of the time you are waiting on the cycle to complete..Study the USAFs "OODA Loop" to pump up your riding

    I been waiting to see your trick on throttle repositioning
    When do you do the reposition while you are still braking ???
    if so the bars must nearly come out of your hands??
    A video on this would be great
    Thanks for all your riding tips its hard to teach us old timers new tricks :-)

    So thank you for sharing some good tips here.

    I recently tore my ACL racing and just had surgery. It is expected to probably be a year before I can start racing again and I know that it will be a struggle to get back to the level I was at.

    • @AjCatanzaro
      @AjCatanzaro  3 роки тому

      I could do that. I tore my acl in 2016 at Detroit SX. Raced the rest of season with it then had surgery in May. I was back on the bike in 6 months. Acl is one of those where it’s much better safe than sorry!! Wait until you have full confidence in that thing

    re-gripping is not that hard but i always struggle braking for the next corner if I re-grip. Do you let the throttle slide in your hand or let it go for a split second? I find it hard to find a comfotable way of doing this.

    Hey AJ, someone might comment on this, but at what age do you still think someone can start doing Motocross? Just for fun, but still master the basics and be comfortable doing 100ft tabletops etc. I'm 30 now and been doing Enduro my whole life and went to the track about 10 times, struggling with technique. Is this something someone my age can still learn, or is 30 pushing it? Thanks and love all the vids man

    • @AjCatanzaro
      @AjCatanzaro  3 роки тому +1

      Good question. To go pro, I would say getting into the sport as a teenager would be nearly impossible. To go out and have fun and do decent sized jumps, I bet I could train a mid 40 year old to do that in a few months of consistent training
