Congrats on your podium finish Linnea!

[@Fluidride]

Aww thanks John! I was pretty excited about it 🤣 -Linnea

[@rubberside3969]

love it! Great drills Simon. While I do that it's never been conscious and this is a great way to share the knowledge. I really like that you stressed the shifting of weight to the front to get it to track and the statement around 29rs with the longer wheelbases, needing the rider to work the front tire more! Thanks

[@Fluidride]

Fantastic Rubberside! Thanks for watching, we're glad you enjoyed it. Have you been able to put this into practice, yet? - Coach Kagen

hey Linnera That "Practice Like A Pro" REALLY works, nice result. How did it compare to racing prior to this series?

[@mtbkev8935]

Congrats! Well done!

Thank you so much Mtbkev! 😀. - Coach Kagen

That corner looks familiar Simon. Feels like I was just there the other day practicing. = ) Also, look at how much beefier Linnea's bike is than Simon's @8:31. That new insurgent is pretty sick. Can't wait for my new Wreckoning, only 5 months to go before they are back in stock.

[@Fluidride]

Hahaha yeah that corner has so many different ways you can ride it! And the new insurgent is such a beast 🤣. Loving it so far. ONLY 5 months? 🤣. Gosh I hope it's faster - but you'll be dialed for bike park laps next summer at Snoqualmie! -Linnea

[@superawesomefuntimego]

@@Fluidride Hehe, I can wait. I have bikes to ride at least and it really was a next season bike anyway, just had to get my order in now so I would for sure have it for next year. Be sure to give us an update on how you are getting along with the new Evil.

[@melwestlake8539]

Congrats on the 3rd place!

[@winnguyen443]

I’ve really neglected my turning skills! Now I’m binging all the Fluidride turn videos. Just started riding pumps tracks, and wondering if I should apply some of this footwork to the dreaded berms?

[@Fluidride]

If your tires are more or less perpendicular to the berm then it’s not needed. As you move faster and need to lean the bike more (or as the berms get less steep) then that will call for progressively more footwork!

[@mtbmike6414]

Where can we see her race ? Are you guys going to make a video of it ? Good luck

[@Fluidride]

No we didn't get any video unfortunately, just little race clips here and there from iphones! I'll try to get some race footage at some racers later this summer when it's not so muddy :P -Linnea

[@mtbmike6414]

@@Fluidride awww really wanted to see all the practice and skills you have learn come together at race day all be waiting for those video clips

[@fatbikedaddy8644]

Nice insurgent Mx. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@Fluidride]

Thank you! I've been rocking the old bike for nearly 3 years now and this is such a treat :P Now I just have to learn the 29" wheel! -Linnea

[@fatbikedaddy8644]

@@Fluidride judging by the race results, learning is well underway😎...

[@dehumanizer21]

Is that the new Insurgent? & Congrats on the upgrade!

[@Fluidride]

Yes it is!! In real life! It's such a machine and rolls noticeably faster ... can't wait to do some big rides on it -Linnea

[@pnwmotocross]

Simon bringing some moto slang into the MTB world!

[@peterfreeman3317]

I’d love to ride smooth trails like this. I could ride my road bike on this terrain.

[@JimsonMTB]

Your videos/how to's look too easy but when i tried it danggg too hard. 😄 more practice for me.

[@Fluidride]

hahaha ok you are not alone... this stuff is hard... but all the practice will pay off! -Linnea

[@lattochanel6279]

Hello friends...Fery good

[@wslee2482]

Is this somehow related to roosting?

[@RealMTBAddict]

Way too short for a 29" bike. Slow steering with bigger wheels.
