[QUOTE="James, post: 9745, member: 2"] Cool videos as always :thumb: You said critique, so... :smirk: Can't really see from the videos but your inside foot goes up by the front wheel and not out to the side. The point is to weight the front wheel, not to catch yourself if you start going down. For me if I stick it out to the side it also throws my balance off. This is something I still do every now and again. :bonk: What's up with your clutch lever being out so far out? You can adjust it (move it in) so that you can keep a finger (or 2) on it at all times. Same with the front brake lever, can't see it in the video though so not sure if it's also sticking out like that. You seem to have the jumps down, now go and work on those corners. :P The next time you go out just work on corners and forget about the jumping part. (I personally think there's nothing better then railing a berm. :ride:) [B]Edit:[/B] Forgot about the Leatt. They don't make a large, only smalls and mediums. But the club does have 3 different size inserts, could just be that the other kid don't have the biggest insert in. Plus they do take a little bit to get used to, I now feel "naked" without one on. (I NEVER ride without it) And if not the Leatt, try the Alphinestars one. :thumb: [/QUOTE]
