Message: [QUOTE="Jeff Gilbert, post: 49563, member: 20280"] Not sure why you would want to slow down while already on the face of a jump, then again, that’s one I haven’t tried yet. Yesterday I was experimenting on hard acceleration up the face, I missed the up shift on approach and was already on the face by the time I grabbed that next higher gear and was pleasantly surprised. I was expecting the worst but it actually felt good. In the past I would hold a somewhat consistent throttle but was trying accelerating instead, by the time I realized what I had done it was too late. The cool thing I noticed was the angle I could achieve while hanging was more easily manipulated with my throttle control, I could notice a drastic difference from the centrifugal force of a faster spinning back tire. Hope all that made sense. ------------------ "Nature Boy" [/QUOTE]
