Welcome back to Practice Like a Pro! This week, Simon teaches Linnea the Holy Grail of mountain biking; the slalom drill. This teaches us how to snap a flat turn, and use compressive force to truly dig into the ground. We primarily focus on standing taller and dipping and pressuring the outside foot.
Get easy access to Simon’s most famous teaching points as you follow Fluidride’s Linnea Rooke through her learning progression, and gain insights for your own riding.
