[QUOTE="Okiewan, post: 328165, member: 16119"] Using the front brake is not a good idea. Sorry dell30rb... Gomer's point about setting up properly so you don't need the brake stab is the best way. Watch the best riders (not necessarily the fastest, but the smoothest). MC for example has said he rarely uses a brake stab. Constant throttle maybe a gear high and proper body position is what to work on. That's not to say you won't get out of shape sometime and need the rear brake or a desperate panic rev. If you are working on jumping technique, it's doubtful you're getting enough air to be messing with the clutch and brake anyway. Work on body position (attack position) and steady throttle... the blips, chopping and generally messing with throttle on jump faces isn't the way to go... concentrate on rolling the throttle off as you leave the jump and that's it. Disclaimer: "KNOWING HOW" and "being able to", are not necessarily interchangeable :confused: [/QUOTE]
