TRACK SPEED SUCKS? DO THIS! - BMX Racing

[@Dewhofleck]

Thanks for all the valuable tips and info coach. I won my first race of the year on Sunday and you were a huge help.

[@BMXTraining]

Congrats and thank you for sharing and keep up the great work!

Hey Coach G in France now so I always catch up at a later time. Interesting that you spoke about Evansville. I can remember when we were 16 or 17X in the main and Nelson went down in the S turn and you were first and I was second. You were tucked behind your number plate in the downhill portion but probably didn't reposition correctly and washed out in the last turn and I slammed into you. I was pissed to not get a podium finish but you just shrugged it off. You were already in a positive mindset at such a young age. And Thanks for the videos. Gary Hellman

Lmao. I was probably holding it in... thanks for this. The things we remember eh! I remember sliding out in the s turn my first year pro taking out Brian Foster, and he just said with a smile, I owe you one. Meaning if he was aggressive at the cost of me, then he had money in savings!

I'm also start right but jump left. Just feels natural.

[@BMXTraining]

Yes, I am just like you! Maris and Gary Ellis are the same as well!

[@bmxracinginjapan]

Same, always have been this way :)

[@maxttelloc5253]

Start left, everything else is right. Start left so that second pedal is my dominant leg for full crank vs half.

Great talk. Thanks, man. 👍🏽

[@BMXTraining]

Awesome Steve, hope all is well 🤝

[@BMXFU]

[@joshrich1027]

You neeeeed to make “ask coach G” merch

[@BMXTraining]

I know man. 👍🏼

[@stevecroes1]

I start right and jump or manual left.. I never noticed it till another coach told me that.

[@BMXTraining]

That’s funny. Yes, Gary Ellis style

[@429supercj]

I start with my right but I can start with either. I can jump with either foot forward also.

[@sebastianowens4044]

Hi at what age Bo you think I should wear racing clips

[@sebastianowens4044]

Do

[@BMXTraining]

Age requires you to be 13+ in the USA. After that it’s up to you determine when you’re ready. I personally don’t believe in placing a limit on anyone and it’s best to have acquired all of the skills to race at a “conscious competence” level before clipping in.

[@bmxracinginjapan]

'Instagram Pro' lol . . . sad but true indicator of modern culture. Great point :)

[@BMXTraining]

Yeah, it;s all good, back then we had guys who also found their niche as they weren't focused on winning as much as others were.
