Could someone tell me if going down rock gardens with speed can be done reliably? Is it a toss-up on whether you get thrown or does skill negate that?
@HeyImKli4d relax, be loose, don't focus too much on the next obstacle, look ahead allways, weight over the back end, do not get target fixation, ie 'shit I am going to come off here', look through it and you will suprise yourself, try one section a few times with different lines and this will increase your skill. Good luck!
ya there hard to do but y they scare u jw an my frist time i did a rock garden i went over the frist rock an te the rest lol now i lean back a lil take whight of my front tire an i go slower
its just meant to be a tutorial? why rip on him for helping out beginners? im very sure you can any video these people post with no brakes and no handlebar but most people cant and thats the point here.
Where on the front range was it? Nice job...

i find it help to just to pull your front wheel up and just let your back wheel jump off the rocks, that is, after you know the trail
