You asked, and we brought it to you: a manual episode!
Join us as we breakdown one of the raddest things you can do on a bike. Here, we separate a basic "puddle manual" from the "BMX manual" and focus on learning the simplest version first. In this episode we discuss:
- A bit of theory on stability and balance
- How skill development relates to stability and balance
- How this impacts our teaching
- Some pre-reqs for the manual
- Terrain choice
- Stretching
- Bike set up
- Goal setting
- Why we should know how to manual
- The basic steps
- How to practice
- Patience and being kind to yourself
- And of course, the donut of the day!
Let us know if this helps you with your pursuit of the manual!
