Technique And Style


Z o o !!

Recommended Posts

I was watching a few clips of myself and looking at other peoples style and technique and seeing how different it is to mine, i was just thinking can you improve on style and technique or is it something that is just like if you write with your right hand you write with your right hand and dont try to write with your left, if you see where im coming from, or is something you can always improve on.

Thoughts ?

Style can be learned, it can be copied, though to how well depends entirely on how good you are at reproducing it. Say someone starts trials and only watches one rider they'll have a similar style to them,purely because they don't know anything else. There might be a point where different bikes and the individuals body builds cause slight differences in the style but this helps to create individuality.

Your always better having your own style which tends to just happen by itself, but if you don't like it or think you look too tense on the bike etc, the only way to let your own style shine is to relax. Once your confident and comfortable you find your body just "flows" better throughout your lines and you'll look a load better when you watch it. If you try and relax but still look too tense then next time your on the bike, try and do things as slowly as possible. If your gapping to front stay on the front wheel for a while as your bodyweight slowly shifts forwards then try and smoothly wheelswap out of it. If your trying just a normal gap sit there at the take off, nice and relaxed then when your ready jump across and try to emphasize smoothness.

You'll get it with practice and by filming yourself so you can see where to improve.

Remember, "il" isn't a word. It needs two L's and an apostrophe, like so:

I'll continue....

I'll try...
