Riding Position?

[Tom3bar]

Hello again all,

I have a wierd Q...

What is the best riding position? - for ex. if you standing on your rear - what is your body position (vertical? bent? what about your arms? etc.)

I'm asking this because i find myself very bent - my body is crouched and my arms is bent in pretty steep angle towards the handlebar's (riding on alibongo)

Thx in advanced,

Tom.

i lean back alot, try to keep my knees flexed and my arms near straight to give really good bounce

I find being too crouched on the back wheel makes it really hard to sidehop, perhaps its just me I dunno

Knees bent out and tilting towards the rear end. Thats what i do and seems to work.

I find keeping my knees bent with my arms straight works best. If you watch videos this will help a bit and watch there body position when they perform gaps etc this helped me to get the jist on how to do them.

yes, thats the best thing to do, watch people videos but different people.So say watch caps boltys and so on to get a good idea of different peoples riding positions and then go and try them.

Thats just what I would do if I was you.
