    Not many pro riders can teach and guide nearly this well. Great series. And best of luck racing this season! 😈

    Such clear instruction, basically leveled up a huge population of riders with this one video. 👊🏽

    Best tutorials on CZcams Aaron! I'm feeling the difference. It's opened up new doors for control and fun vs fear and unpredictability. The corner knobs are starting to feel more like the edges on my skis. Carving vs blindly rolling. Thank you so much.

    I recently noticed watching a train of pros, ripping through turns faster than it seems possible, that they’re all looking towards the exit. Every one of them.

    Question on elbows
    In your first video you show how to keep your elbows up directly on top of the bar , there’s 2 way of thinking in the coaching industry your way and the other it’s elbows behind the grip.
    I use your way but I see that when you actually riding your elbows is actually behind the grip and not on top of the bar.
    Can you please explain a little more in detail? Thanks so much.

    I watched this before heading out for a ride later in the day this past weekend. I can’t believe how much looking ahead through the turns helps. It’s transformative. Totally changed my ride. Thanks!

    @davidmain8696 Před 2 lety +1

    I'm really liking these "coaching" type videos. My riding is really responding to thinking about your edits and steps for turns and I've seen significant improvement. It seemed like too much time and trouble at first but having the discipline to practice this is my shortcut to getting better faster instead of just adding in miles of riding and months of trying.

  • @adanielweaver
    @adanielweaver Před 2 lety +2

    Excellent points, especially about looking out of the turn. I'm going to practice that. Also, I hope it goes without saying that setting up outside should be limited to staying on the main trail and not widening it. Closed race courses that get maintenance after just keep it between the tape

  • @adamcvanwinkle
    @adamcvanwinkle Před 2 lety +1

    Your last video helped me dial in my cornering for a noticeable improvement. With this video I immediately identified two things that I need to keep in mind:
    * Entry speed (sometimes I come in too hot and have to grab brakes mid turn)
    * Taking the outside line when it is available ( I notice that I get tunnel vision sometimes and end up in the middle just like you pointed out in this video)
    Thanks for the tips!

    • @GwinnerTube
      @GwinnerTube  Před 2 lety +1

      Heck ya! Those are probably the 2 most common mistakes in cornering for somebody who's starting to go fast. Easy to rush thing's coming into the turns too far inside and too fast. Remember, exit speed is everything.. little slower in, faster coming out. :)

  • @daddudesdostuff
    @daddudesdostuff Před 2 lety

    Aaron, can you possibly speak on and inform us about prototype bike and how it worked at World Cup France... What it did good and what you will be working on.. I hope you get it dialed and win some races.. I was bothered by all trash talk about your bike. Please take us through your development journey 🙏

    On a pink bike video they reported, One anonymous source said, "It looks like something that fell off a Soviet Era Tank and it is clunkier than a first gen IPod."

    Great video. I find that exiting my turns I end up going too far inside, like suddenly. Is this a symptom of understeering? I

  • @markbuttery2790
    @markbuttery2790 Před 2 lety

    Thanks, regarding the braking , do you favour your front more or your back coming into the corner, as this will unsettle the weight of the bike.

  • @stevenh3880
    @stevenh3880 Před 2 lety

    Thanks for these videos, they're really helpful! Something I've been trying to figure out between this video and your other cornering video regarding dropping a foot- when you turn so that your leading foot is on the outside (for me, I lead with my left foot so a right handed turn), are you dropping it down in front of the BB like you move your foot from the 9:00 position to the 7:30ish position? or are you switching your lead foot so that foot goes from the 9:00 position to the 4:30ish position? Sorry if this is confusing but it's driving me crazy.

    • @GwinnerTube
      @GwinnerTube  Před 2 lety

      Yo! If you ride left foot forward, like I do.. then you would rotate your foot forward in front of the bb when you drop into right hand corners. Check out my "How To Corner" video. I explain it pretty well in there and that slalom drill I do in that video should help get that feeling more natural for you.

  • @timothyhuber5322
    @timothyhuber5322 Před 2 lety +1

    As a follow up video, would love to hear your views on how to maintain speed through a chunky flat corner or one that has different degrees of traction as you go through it. Do you absorb a slide, push into it, change lean angle, shift weight around? How do you approach figuring out the fastest way through when the traction changes through the turn?

    • @camerondavis7291
      @camerondavis7291 Před 2 lety

      one thing that helps me is to get the idea out of my head that there is one body position around the corner. you really have to adjust your weight distribution, lean angle, and braking depending on what part of the corner you are on, it isn’t one constant position or motion

  • @WanderingSword
    @WanderingSword Před 2 lety +1

    when descending fast fireroads and a flat corner comes up, my ass is semi puckering, never know if/when I'm going to eat it. Then survival instinct kicks in and I slow down. I will say this, the heavier the bike, especially e-bikes, the easier it is to go fast in corners.
