The more technical it gets the more you crouch down, getting your butt closer to the seat and your head further down.
It doesn't feel right the first few times but trust me, stick with it. It will probably hurt your quads and back - as in using muscles you haven't used in a while, not doing any damage.
I was always comfortable standing but using this technique I feel much more balanced and in control.
Hope this helps.

I'll have to try that.
I have been looking for day camps in my area and haven't seen any. Where can I look to see camps and training that I should take?
