All great advice. I definitely got over eager and had a little mishap but I’m back to practicing in a large private grassy field until I have more control 😊
Great tips, we need more of these videos for us learners, especially for those learning in remote locations where there is no face to face community. Maybe you can do more now you have more experience.
When you mentioned that sprained ankle and buying motorcycle shoes right afterwards... Well, for me same story - second day of learning the EUC, I had a less-than-ideal dismount. The pain in the ankle wasn't too bad, but enough that I had to stop for the day, and since next day it still hurt a bit, I only returned to practice after two days. This whole ordeal seemed counterproductive - the more time I spend recovering from injuries, the less I spend practicing and riding - and later down the road I plan major off-roading in nearby forested hills... and also as a commuter, I might have to ride in snow and ice, so... I decided motocross boots might be a good investment xD Maybe a slight overkill, and I don't feel the wheel as much as I did with 'normal' shoes, but - if I injure my ankles, I won't be feeling the wheel for weeks anyway, so eh, time learn to ride in armor.

The fourth and fifth tips: excellent.
Thank you very much for these useful tips. Greetings from Belgium

Good idea!
in the beginning you said -30°c so I thought you were out riding in that temp lmfao I was so confused. But then you later clarified. Good video!

There’s no harm in protecting yourself! As they say, better to be safe than sorry.
Awesome 😎 thanks 🙏
Great tip's
I’m a newbie. Your tip about having 1 foot a little bit in front of the other one should help me as I progress. Thanks.
It’s definitely worth trying on wheels WITHOUT pads. On all my wheels with pads, I keep my feet in line with each other :)
Good tips buddy,thanks
Thanks for watching :)
^^* very good
Wear a full face helmet...
