Most Riders' Greatest Weakness - Practice Like a Pro #53

THIS EPISODE: Most riders' greatest weakness is... their front foot turn! Studying this, and then putting it into practice, is one of the best things you can do to improve your riding. FIRST OF ALL, WHAT IS A FRONT FOOT TURN? A front foot turn is any time your front foot is on the outside of the turn. For example, if you're a left foot forward rider, this will be any time you turn right. If you're a right foot forward rider, this will be any time you turn left. WHY DOES THIS MATTER? It's important to distinguish front foot turns from back foot turns because we have an asymmetric stance on the bike, so our bodies don't move in the same way when turning in each direction. Most riders stand over their bikes with their dominant foot in the back, and naturally carry their weight there while riding. In order to correctly pressure the pedal when performing a front foot turn, your body needs to shift weight surprisingly far forward. This motion does not come naturally to most people, so it's important to develop this coordination. This will allow you to link good turns together that are equally as powerful, rather than making a good turn followed by a bad turn every time the trail changes direction. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - SERIOUS ABOUT IMPROVING YOUR RIDING?

With an exceptional understanding of kinesiology, Simon has developed his own teaching curriculum that explains the incredible relationship between human and machine. He has trained top pro mountain bike racers across the world, and his foundational techniques apply equally to beginner riders. His on-bike drills allow you to break down complex skills on the bike and develop correct techniques. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ABOUT LINNEA ROOKE Linnea has been racing locally in the pro category, but prior to Fluidride, she had almost no formal training and was held back by major gaps in her technique. While she was able to carry speed well on straight downhills and high-bermed turns, she lacked foundational cornering skills and was timid in the air. In Feb 2020, she met up with Fluidride to help with a filming trip in Baja, and was fascinated by Simon's teaching methods. Wanting to be part of this mission, she left her career in healthcare in July 2020 to officially join the Fluidride team as COO. We started filming this series to document her journey of cleaning up bad habits, adding new skills to her toolkit, and chasing her dream of riding with style. Linnea is riding an Evil Following V3! https://www.evil-bikes.com/collection...
