    I think it's a riot how they go from the very simple line selection & front braking techniques right into fuckin BACKING IT IN and THEN go on to talk about throttle control and looking through the turn, etc.

    I dunno... although it had a lot of good information, the organization & order of operations of the whole vid was terrible.

    it was also mostly topics without the substance attached. things like "technique is most important" without explaining the technique....
    Nice attempt, but you can't cover 10 tips in 10 minutes.
