Cheers, I also had ago on jedi's bike doing the manual-pump-jump run at the top, And there was a massive improvment, just by changing the bike. His bike is epic. 8-) On my bike i lost loads of speed and found it hard to manual, but on his it was a piece of cake & i lost no speed, infact im pretty sure i gained some.
Also as a bonus i never had a single off!! :)

Will also "NOT" be getting a bike with over 180mm travel now. :shifty:

Nice to hear about the improvement and confidence this session brought you! I'm tempted to get myself in one next spring.

Yeah, that was bill whipping it like a pro :thumbup:
spencer. the difference is, his bike is made for that & mine isnt. :roll: mine is just for daily cycle lane trips to the shops. :oops: . There was a massive difference. Go round a race track in an old lada, the go round in a lotus!! that my friend is the difference. The rest is rider input.
D, defo go. There is a massive change to what you think is right & being taught the right way, many people can advise "but" being taught , Is so much more. Worth every penny mate. 8-)
