[@brianflick3024]

One of the best ones yet. Thanks for that. Loved the trailing rides at the end. Good stuff!!!

[@AjCatanzaro]

Thanks! I figured the kids would like to see themselves ride for a lap from that angle too!

[@Randy_Cox]

Dude those kids are smoking fast. So cool to see so much skill at such a young age. Great video.

[@Notcoltonw]

Hey aj its Colton thx for training me👍

[@busybeans87]

[@drknes4012]

Keep it up Man,Those really have helped me :)

[@boxxroom]

Follow cam was great 👍🏼

[@kaylon39]

Great work Aj, hard to get young people to listen to new ideas sometimes.

[@nch-wf3tu]

That little guy did awesome. They both did, but the smaller one did great. How old is he? Thinking about a 50 for my little guy, but man, those things rip!

[@AjCatanzaro]

I think he is 8 or 9. Yes, power to weight ratio for those little guys is crazy

[@claytoncrochet1556]

Loved watching you rip with em

[@sixfivemoto8845]

Dude awesome video! What settings did you use on your gopro and where was it mounted for this one? Thanks :D

[@peytonhoover6810]

I saw your bike in Logan and Lucas’s trailer

[@sparky_zap69]

Question, I’m still a pretty new rider, not very fast and not much confidence in a track scenario, but -when- DO you use the clutch? I know you were telling the little guy on the 85 when not to use it, which I think I have a bad habit of doing myself. So when would you use the clutch? So I can start practicing a more proper use of the clutch come riding season here. I’m good at keeping a finger on the levers at all times, but I do find myself pulling it in lots.

[@AjCatanzaro]

Kris Thistle if you’re still a fairly new rider I really would stay away from it as much as possible. I only use the clutch to make sure my acceleration is smooth and controlled, but that’s a very easily confused with just pulling it in for no reason in the middle of the corner

[@sparky_zap69]

Aj Catanzaro do I use it to switch gears once I’m moving, or merely to get me going from a stop until I’m comfortable enough to use it for smoothing acceleration etc?

[@AjCatanzaro]

Kris Thistle you can pull the clutch in a tiny bit to shift up, you don’t need the clutch to shift down

[@sparky_zap69]

Aj Catanzaro awesome, thank you for the clarification. We all gotta start somewhere, right? 👍🏼

[@kyleh7078]

I am going to order a polar watch this week. Do you have a code? Not a discount code just a link or a code, so that you get credit for the sale.

[@AjCatanzaro]

DM them on Instagram and say you saw me talking about it in a KZbin video. They respond pretty quickly on Instagram usually and that will help me & could potentially get you discount. Thanks!!

[@scrubz7441]

In what situations would I have to use the clutch for? Not sure if I’m using it right

[@neilwilson2747]

Those kids are amazing

[@idrissalam]

Very good one.

[@turbotaz2067]

give a tutorial on "Discussion Bar" download etc...

[@lennyk9012]

gotta tell that younger one about smooth throttle application he revs it up and down almost constantly

[@ethanrobinson9638]

If you’re coming into a corner that’s soft pack on top of hard that doesn’t have much of anything for traction do you think it’s better to have your inside foot on the pegs or lifted in case you can’t correct in time and it’s out of the way

[@AjCatanzaro]

Ideally you could still leave foot on peg. In a corner like that where you’re basically “flat tracking” you can scoot your butt to the edge of seat and allow bike to lean under you

[@ethanrobinson9638]

Aj Catanzaro okay thanks! Keep up the vids they’re great!!

[@appliedperformance773]

Got a pretty solid private track 35-40 minutes from Tomahawk you and Tyler should come rip.

[@AjCatanzaro]

Applied performance Shooting which direction from tomahawk??

[@appliedperformance773]

Aj Catanzaro West. Very close to PawPaw WV.

[@rickypentz3158]

When is a good time to lift your inside foot? Just deep ruts? Or is it better always if you do it correct?

[@AjCatanzaro]

Sometimes the ruts will get so deep you need to get your inside foot up and out of the way. Otherwise I think it’s great habit to just keep inside foot on

[@JAMIE_ATKINS]

AJ stalking and talking around the track...lol

[@jeremy_moto_192]

What’s the cost of lessons?

[@christianromero5290]

I sit far on the seat and weight the outside peg while putting pressure on the outside shroud but i still can seem to stay in a rut how do i fix that?

[@AjCatanzaro]

Christian Romero get in the habit of using the front brake to manipulate the lean angle of the bike. To turn a bike you need to lean, and using the front brake gently will help that bike begin to lean

i really wish you could teach me there is no coaches were i live

[@bradystone7972]

How do you correct the bike in the air and straight it out when you take off crooked

[@jacobmorgan1743]

Not much you can do in the air, just land with the front tire straight and land with a little bit of throttle

[@AjCatanzaro]

You can adjust bike with the throttle or brake while in the air, also can learn forward or back a bit. The smoother you are on take off and the more centered your body is, the less likely you’ll get any type of weird kick

[@bradystone7972]

Aj Catanzaro ok thanks for responding love your videos!!!

[@dylanb8427]

I'm pretty sure both of those kids are faster than I am on a track lol

[@ManuelTorres-qy8op]

What model polar watch did you get?

[@AjCatanzaro]

Vantage M

[@ManuelTorres-qy8op]

Thank you AJ, btw love the riding behind student coaching and recording. RC and Fro we’re talking about using a communications equipment in helmet to talk to students while riding and be able to tell them what to do on the fly instead of stopping and talking.

[@Sn0w1981]

I often drive around the deep ruts, "making" my own outside line. In no-time more and more (faster) riders start using it too. Trendsetter.

[@terrybible1545]

These kids just need to build up some endurance and strength and stop their bad habits
