Ruts & Loose Rocks || MTB Technical Descents: Practice Like a Pro #15

Описание: Reporting from Todos Santos, Mexico! Part of being a great rider is being comfortable in all different types of terrain, so Simon sends Linnea down a rutted-out 4x4 road full of loose rocks. Today is all about correct body position and analyzing line options.

Key Takeaways:
1. Stay relaxed and look up
2. Widen your stance
3. Let the bike move underneath you and glance off terrain
4. If you get into a rut, wait for a natural "out"

Get easy access to Simon's most famous teaching points as you follow Fluidride’s @linnearooke through her learning progression, and gain insights for your own riding.

ABOUT LINNEA ROOKE
Linnea has been racing locally in the pro category, but until this year she had almost no formal training and was held back by major gaps in her technique. While she was able to carry speed well on straight downhills and high-bermed turns, she lacked foundational cornering skills and was timid in the air. In Feb 2020, she met up with Fluidride to help with a filming trip in Baja, and was fascinated by Simon's teaching methods. Wanting to be part of this mission, she left her career in healthcare in July 2020 to officially join the Fluidride team as COO. We started filming this series to document her journey of cleaning up bad habits, adding new skills to her toolkit, and chasing her dream of riding with style.
