on downhill, i just slam rear brakes and drift through, it works fine though lol
-
hehe what is this?=)

Uphill switchbacks look clean, but when you're riding downhill, you want to add style to it, break before turns, get some good lean action into those pockets (when applicable), and pump those legs ninja!
-
the trail i ride has consecutive switchbacks a little less angled than that witha little loose dirt any tips on how to maintain my speed
-
has anyone just kept going straight?

how about for downhill, go as fast as u can for the turn, get to the burmed section of it (if applicable) lean realtively hard, and pump.. if you begin to move away from the burm and loose traction, pump or grab the rear brake to catch the burm agian. noe of that handlebar turning crap...

Step 1: Buy a bike that doesn't have grip shifters...

@SydeshowMO We still laugh about that one. He got a lot of comments from his pro racer buddies... all in good humor though. Joe's a good one.

what kind of helmet camera do you use, the picture just looks awesome!!

The helmet camera was done by a combination of strapping a small HD camcorder on a helmet (with a counterweight) and using a long boom. However, with the new HD GoPro cam out there, that's what we'd probably use these days.

im a newbie.... wat bike would u recommend??

There are a lot of great bikes out there. We ride and recommend Santa Cruz's excellent products. Just make sure you first ride a lot of different makes, models, and choose the right bike for where you ride, not where others do. And make sure you get what you will need in the future, not just now. It's a lot easier to buy LESS bike than you WILL need than it is too much. Welcome to mountain biking!
