Thank you so much for providing these videos! I’m a beginner rider and these videos are super helpful. You are an excellent teacher.

Pat, this is just another great video introducing people to another must-have technique. You are an awesome coach! I had spent hundreds of hours learning how to be the best I could be at this. Which allowed me to then have an incredible amount of fun while touring off road on my huge KTM 950 adventure. One of the biggest hurdles for me, was overcoming the nervousness of pulling and holding a wheelie at the top of a 5-ft drop.

Thanks Jo! I feel like I am getting better at teaching but it is still hard for me to be confident with it at times. And you are right, learning to drop the correct way is huge in offroad! Bad things can happen if you are not confident and don't completely commit to the drop, especially on a big bike! - Pat
