Trials Climb and Turn Clinic

Demonstrating Trials Basics: Riding with a light grip on the bars, staying over the pegs by not leaning upper body in ANY direction. Allowing the knees and elbows to bend as needed to allow upper body to remain centered.

Three riders: yellow bike rider is very experienced on Non-Trials bikes. This was his first Trials Ride without any instruction about how to stay centered.

Silver bike rider is a very experienced Flat-Track Racer with a fair amount of Trials Bike time, but has just started learning the proper fundamentals.

Red/Black bike is me trying to demonstrate the fundamentals but discovered my elbow position was flawed. Even the teacher can benefit from these videos.
