    This is not too specific on how to ride different track sections but it is useful and interesting ... Numerous PROs are talking here, including John Dowd ...

    The biggest point I gathered from here that should help my riding, is to ride with your legs and less with the arms ... My arms are loose when riding, letting the bike do the work underneath me but I don't think I use my legs enough yet ... One rider was saying to point your toes inward towards the bike and this will naturally make your legs hug the bike.

    And I need to watch down the trails more also, like corner to corner ... To me, this is a sell-out move and will make you much faster ... Beware though, you better be on a line that is safe ...

    This is all shown on tracks and promoted as MX skills but these techniques will work in the dirt, on tracks and trails ...

    Cool TD ... Seat time and listening plus watching others beyond my riding skills are the only ways I know to get better at riding other than just going out and crashing alot from trial and error riding ...

    One place TC41 says to know your suspension and expect what it's gonna do ... :) ... Useful and about as vague as it comes...

    Nice find.Maybe he is refering to knowing how your bike will react to g-outs,braking bumps,ect.
