Very smooth. Nice control.

[@advmotoskillz]

Thanks. I credit alot of cone weave practice to learn.

[@alvarosolis7837]

Excellent videos! Short, Very well explained and without having to say a word. This has become my go to channel for technique refresher. Keep up the good work!

Wonderful instructional videos. Thank you for sharing. May I ask exactly what does ( at 1:10) dragging the rear brake do? Thank you again.

[@advmotoskillz]

Thanks for watching & asking, Jim. Dragging the rear brake can help when performing slow speed riding maneuvers in a couple of ways. Gentle application of the rear brake (just enough to engage the brake pads with slight friction) while riding at slow speed can help tighten up a turning radius and it can help stabilize the bike with simultaneous use of the friction zone. Feathering the clutch (using the Friction Zone) keeps the bike moving and dragging the rear break allows slight resistance to keep the bike stable. With experience, slow speed riding can be done without dragging the rear brake with excellent use of just the friction zone and throttle inputs. We are going to discuss this very topic in more detail in our upcoming blog so be sure to look out for that.

@@advmotoskillz thank you

I want to recreate this drill for practice, but I'm a bit confused by the dimensions in your video. Is each "box" 18' x 18'?

[@advmotoskillz]

Yes, each box is 18 feet by 18 feet. There is a cone palced insinde each box that is 6 feet from the outside edge. It isa a great course to work on those full lock turns. Be sure to ride it both ways👍

ADV bike : check Suitable gear : check Determination to practice : check Huge desert : nope

[@advmotoskillz]

🤣 we are extremely fortunate to have such open places to ride and we like to take advantage of it as much as possible!!!! Glad to hear that you are motivated practice.💪 Many of the fundamental bike handling skills can actually be worked on in very little space. Balance, friction zone mastery, etc 👍 If you are short on space then may also like our videos focused on training in smaller areas: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hpy6knd4e8iBl5I or kzbin.info/www/bejne/gorIZ2qondqhodk While they may not replace a big desert, they are still good fun 😉
