Teaching Motocross Pro How To Whip Better! // Private Lesson 

look for my longer post on how to learn the whip... dreams are free but they can happen!

Get after it bud!!

Same bro!! Right there with you

You should make a video, your explanation is very good

SUPERB Description!

I learned by weighing my inside peg and sitting down and adding a smooth pulling motion with the bars

Thanks for the info. I'm not even thinking about trying whips, but couldn't wrap my head around how they work. Gyro explanation did it.

Too bad the gear quality is garbage cuz it looks great

Same. I’m a fast intermediate but I just can’t get myself to lean enough for some reason

yes. and hopefully not right before you die right!

Seat bouncing is easy

Doesn't make you faster either, maybe get a girlfriend haha

🤣🤣

Yup. We called them tabletops. Or a scub, only turning out instead of turning down and into the takeoff

My day to homie.diff table top.but our non working generation has enough time to rename shit we was doing in the stone age.lol

Oh man!!! Almost forgot about that term! Thanks for the flashback!

In my opinion learning scrubs first is much easier, and yes it does lead to learning whips

When you start nose high off the jump face and gyro it, it kinda naturally happens and you wanna battle it with throttle towards the end

That can be true at times. This jump was definitely an easier jump to scrub than it is to whip

...as in turning through an MX track berm turn? or just the way the bars counter-steer in general? if you come from street bikes, you may find that you will push the front end out and fall over to the inside. this is from leaning inward too much for the speed your going while not having a berm. in the softer dirt, when going slower then the speed it takes to G-force into the rut or berm (like a slot car does on a high banked turn), you must lean/lay the bike down more than on a street bike. so for normal, slower flat-track type turning, keep your body more upright and let the bike fall over more under you. this will be a safer way to practice, cuz you can catch a fall with your leg, as a fall will only happen if the back tire slips out. you will be sitting way forward so that the front tire always gets more grip than the rear. this will build your confidence. it works on about any traction surface because the bike is so much lighter than your street bike. if it falls in/over too much, steer into the turn harder and the bike will stand up more. when your done turning, just turn back the other way and the bike will stand back up. you don't have to follow the bike with your body like a street bike. it can swap left and right under you while you just sit there. this swapping action will be much faster than on a street bike but be ok. test the limits to find out what this lighter, safer bike will do. do not think about the counter-steer effect. if you do, you will wobble back and forth and get into a headshake situation. counter-steer comes naturally when you want to turn. you're doing it on your street bike without thinking, so just think about turning the way you want and let your muscle memory worry about the counter steer. find a riding area with even traction about like the wet sand of a beach, and practice all kinds of turns in 2nd gear. try knifing the bike left and right in and out of turns, to feel how you can safely use the front wheel to quickly change directions. for this type of practice, if you don't feel the fork diving as you cut the other way, your going too slow. gradually get faster at figure 8's and circles, then try 3rd gear while making bigger arcs. you will start to feel the G-force pulling you into the seat like your street bike did. it just takes time to learn the types of dirt, sand or gravel and what the limits are. try single track trail riding and simply don't think about the turning part. this will help you tune out the confusion. avoid rutty trails till you get better. have fun and before long your turning questions will fade away. tire pressure is key for turning and traction. run about 11psi in the rear and 13 psi in the front. softer compound tires need more air.

@@yukonjon5964 thanks man! I appreciate it!

@@brandonkeithley7464 you're welcome.

ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-JGWDhpGY3hc.html From my experience in riding road and dirt for the last 45+yrs ... and I still don't know a damn thing... is most street riders sit waaaay too much and are too far back on the seat in corners. Tons of corner vids out there. Have fun and welcome to the better half of motorcycling.

A... to look cool in photos. B... to turn in the air when the track does not line up with the jump face. C... for faster lap times, because the whip creates an air brake and you slow down in the air more, which gets you back to the ground so you can get on the gas again. it gets you over the jump so you land at the same place, but you took off with a greater ground speed then if not doing a whip. but a scrub does all of this to a greater degree. D... a whip can help you set up for a steep down-ramp approach angle and helps keep your rear wheel from catching on the top lip of a jump.

Mid air bike control and looks cool

Thank you sir 😬😁

Also is it a natural movement back or use putter whip heel to bring back the bike

Nevermind. I understand everything

what i wrote below should help Kyle. look for the longer post with my channel name.

Hahah you’ll get there! 😂👍🏼

@@AjCatanzaro Thanks Aj.
