i'm bad at right downhill turns. in fact all my right turns suck. i'm hoping left hand rear brake improves this. i've been practicing a hillside tight 's' turn/switchback setup i have in my front yard (3 right turns downhill, 3 left turn at tops) i think i'm not sliding forward enough on the right turns. just can't commit as well to the right turns..left turns are no problem...

i also suck in the sand and extremely soft dirt (mx style dirt.... )

i excel at extremely difficult rocky (softball size to boulder size rocks) trails. west virgina riding and riding trials bikes fast has made me very fast at this..

i'm also pretty good at wrecking and breaking stuff on bike and body.

on trials, i suck at entering the section at the right location. i can't relax enough until i'm 10' into the section and already at a bad line.. even taking a deep breath before launch and i still blow it half the time. makes easy sections very difficult.. i think i push off too much with my feet when i settle into the pegs..
