Nice riding dude :) Interesting you did the middle Payrise drop straight off, I assume you've done it before? Any tips on how to get over the fear of doing it? I know my bike and skills are up to it, but it plays with your head because you don't see the landing till you're right on the lip. How did you overcome it for the first time please? :)
Hey, thanks dude. This wasn’t my first time on the middle but still scary (just about getting comfortable with it now). I did the left had chicken run over and over. After a couple of goes I found I wasn’t touching the down ramp at all, but kept doing it a few more times until I was landing about a third of the way down the dirt landing. That convinced me I could do the middle, which was actually a bit easier as the run in is straighter and you land with more room either side. Following my lad in helped to gauge my speed, but you don’t need much. Literally just ride off, no pop or anything and it’ll be perfect. Good luck with it dude, you’ll be so stoked when you’ve got it. Next up the big one 😳 which my lad says is just as easy.. I’m not yet convinced 🤣
