im gonna be goin every week, and eventually get some footage so i/u rider types can critique. just tryin to be smooth and correct, fuck going fast, for now atleast
It's all about practice, man. My rights were pretty rusty compared to my lefts. I still don't feel as confident when compared to my lefts, but it's only very, very slightly less confident. Track riding relly helped me out to adjust and get to a good comfort zone, because it's all about feeling comfortable out there. Following the basics, but still comfortable.
