DISCIPLINE

-

People often say that gravity riding is all about being mad on the bike, but the riders who link full runs together well are very calculated. Riding downhill fast requires discipline. That means identifyin­g braking points where you can slow down, so that you can ride each section with full commitment and gain speed through them. I see so many riders on track stalling in the middle of sections, but if you’re going to stall anywhere, it should be before you enter a section, not in it. Use sections as slingshots!
