[QUOTE="scott_ktm, post: 50076, member: 21819"] As others have said practice. Find a small jump, tabletops are good 10' to 15' , and purposely let off the gas on the face of the jump. Knowing what will happen, nose will drop in the air, be ready to gas it. While in the air rev it till you fell the effect, nose comes up, then let off a little. Just the opposite hit the gas on the lip and the front goes high, then just tap the rear brake, don't slam it and hold it, just a quick jab. After a while it becomes second nature. Trust me many times I have seen the ground coming up at my face real fast and I twist the throtle like I am trying to blow the engine up. At the same time I have locked the rear brake and killed it landing with brake on engine dead. These beat the alternatives. Once you get these tricks down there are other ways to make slight corrections. One is taking either foot and lifting it as if you are trying to hook your heel on the rear number plate and pull it up. This forces your body forward and brings the nose down. Watch the more experienced riders at the races and you will pick up some of these tricks. ------------------ “ If we weren’t all crazy we would go insane” Jimmy Buffett '99 KTM 380sx [/QUOTE]
