Bailing without getting hurt is super important! I do have a bit of a bad habit of trying to step off onto an obstacle instead of just bailing all the way to the ground. Its great when it works, but can lead to some awkward falls if you miss by just a little bit.
The commitment on some of these is immense, I know it seems like not a lot and you say you don't feel like a real trials rider sometimes, but the seats and the picnic tables are hectic, all those spots to fall into, as martin mentioned, bailing skills are key, I know what you mean about the foot on obstacle vs total bail and how wrong it can go. Great riding mate, every video shows more progress!
Glad you found it useful. I'm not quite sure how to read "at the stage you're at". The stage I'm at seems to be "good enough to impress random non-bikers walking by" but "bad enough that I don't feel like a real trials rider"
Your progression is mint! 🤘

1:16-2:32 love this stuff! This is helpful. Never seen ups quite like this - at the stage you’re at. Great video - a lot thrown into three minutes.

@@JosephBank You are miles ahead of my progress! But you are demonstrating learning -not trying to remember how you learned.
@@JosephBank You're definitely a real trials rider mate.
