I agree about what you've said about Benito not being on form and so on. Though, he's getting better quickly now! I've seen a clear improvement in every vid with him I've seen in the last 6 months or so!

I've actually thought about using a front hs with rear disc. I sure love the thought of the bite a front hs would give, but I don't think I'd manage without the modulation of a disc..
Hi guys, I just can't get the proper "wheel switch" technique, so I'm just wondering if you could tell me what I could improve in my move
maybe more power upwards from my arms? what do YOU think?
Cheers!
I used the French-Id foams last year (during 4-5 months I think) and they were awesome! I would definitely still use them if it was for my foam grips always slipping around on the handlebar..
I've use them to, if you put them on correctly they'll last really well
I'd say it depends what kind of pedal up you're trying to do. Are you doing it in a so called '20" style' or '26" style'? Because these techniques are very different!
Are you doing the technique Gilles uses at 2:48 (26" style)

or like the pedal up Benito does at 2:38 (20" style)

A good way to improve you're technique is to shoot when you're trying to do the jump, and then compare with how the Elits are doing it
I did a side hop on 8 pallets today! easier than ever!
though I did it about four times and all of them were cleaner than this one.. but there will be more shots!
