sand isnt really what i mainly ride but when there is i used to struggle with it, but growing up my dad always told me to sit on the back fender and stay on the pipe, now im more of a stand up rider and i lean back as far as possible putting all my weight on the rear tire and stay on the gas just moving my weight to the back tire, keeping momentum up, and staying on the gas has helped me tremendously in the sand i rarely ever find myself having problems untill i fly up on someone else darting from side to side that causes me to slow down, i also run a trials tire im not sure if thats better or worse but the traction you get everywhere else is a big bonus. building up the momentum after that person slowed you down is rough but once you build your momentum up its all good again
