    I was genuinely scared for you on this one. It fascinates me that you don’t seem to “preload” or “pop” off anything, and yet you’re still very consistent. This track seemed like it needed “pop” due to lack of trail speed on some features, so I was holding my breath! Nice work

    • @bestdayevermtb2
      @bestdayevermtb2  ปีที่แล้ว +4

      The only thing that I needed more speed on was the drop. I am good at things that require little skill just commitment.

      @sijmes ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Exactly, thats why he left the wall ride so wide.He even squashed the takeoff on that gap jump. The "lack" of speed had me on the edge of my seat. But it all worked out in the end so maybe his riding just appears less active on camera. I prescribe more pump track sessions..... Great content 👍

      @sijmes I have always prescribed to the just enough speed to get me over is enough.😁
