Nice! Body on top/lean bike is excellent for slow technical trail sections too. I practice slow figure 8 patterns on flat and slight hillsides. Slipping the clutch, smooths out the jerky throttle, and improves traction management.
Good video. Good advice. Don't forget to use your legs too. Keep your body upright and at the same time put some of your weight on the outside foot peg. This really helps stabilize the bike when you start to slide. If you aren't using your legs, you are essentially trying to control the rear wheel with only your butt and the seat. Also, always keep your elbows up (unless the trees are too close).
Combine full commitment ,go too fast,ride up the tank,enter that gravel curve with outer elbow point up and forward get on the gas super early,keep that inside foot up above the foot peg,.Done..

Bingo! Dissecting it to basics is the key to better learning..

Thanks for this comment. Putting weight on the outside foot peg is such a great cue.
Love your stuff. You ride a Honda? What model is it please?
Hey Tomas, thank you for your kind words. In this video I'm riding a CRF250F trail bike: th-cam.com/video/Cb4e12UNTu4/w-d-xo.html

crazy how hard flat corners are but everything else which should be harder is easy
Good stuff. Definitely don't want the bike sliding out from under me.
