[QUOTE="scoobymx, post: 664672, member: 38823"] hey, hows it going, I grew up riding rocks and have since learned to love riding in them. Here is how I do it, on down hills I always stand riding on the balls of my feet gripping tight with my knees. I try not to steer with the handle bars I try to lean dragging both brakes remember not to lock the back all you do is gain speed, also if you sit it will make you gain speed easyer and it will usually make the back end of the bike bounce around and gets out of control. On steep downhills I like to go side to side because some times you can use the sides of the banks to slow you down. But the best advice I can give you is stand up and go with the flow, don't fight it if the bike wants to go some where ride it and just hang on. On up hills they are easy get all your speed up at the bottom because momentem is every thing pick your line at the bottom and try to go there. If you can't make the line you want just try to make it work. I try to find spots where the rocks are embeaded in the ground because you can gain speed on them with some throttle control but to much gas you spin you spin to much may as well go back down and start over. Good luck and start slow scoobymx [/QUOTE]
