Well I'm gonna say it. I reckon Jett learnt something from this session with AJ. Watching him at Salt Lake 1 he just looked so much more relaxed and confident. I reckon those 1 handed drills and the attack position deets have helped him a bunch. The kids gonna be unstoppable!

I'm now realizing I need to work on mobility. I lean forward with my knees because my back is so damn tight and I can't properly hinge. Jett can just pitch over and touch the bars with his chest, that's some insane flexibility.

Love you AJ, your logical approach got me back into the sport enjoying it now as an adult more than I ever did even as a teenager/kid. The biggest thing I’ve noticed that makes it hard for people to feel like their attack position is working for them is that most people ride in too low of a gear while trying to develop these good habits and consequently end up having a hard time initiating their core and upper body into their acceleration.

@Natedoc808 3 жыл бұрын

The biomechanics term for the leg component he is describing is called hip hinge. This is typically driver by hamstring and hip flexor shortness from too much sitting (called lower crossed syndrome). This also generates lots of back compensation (tucked butt) and responsible for most non traumatic back pain in developed world. I fix 75% of my patients pain/dysfunction who have lower crossed syndrome by restoring their flexibility and then once they have the needed flexibility, the strengthening finishes off the rest of their issue. This mechanism is what is used for the deadlift.

Hey AJ been loving what you've been doing lately. Really cool the spot that you've managed to carve out for yourself in this industry. Props! You probably don't remember me since it's been so long but I used to race NESC, most notably in the 85 A class battling with Jimmy and Hacia and those guys and then a bit in 125's. Steve Lyons 238 on a Yamaha with an orange helmet lol. I actually remember you on a 65 and then just moving up to an 85 as I got hurt. But then I had a compound fracture to my arm with permanent radial nerve damage so I was out for years and only ever did a few races after that on a 250F but due to my injury decided not to compete regularly.

For younger riders, this may be an easier position to attain. You have to be pretty flexible in the hamstrings so a bit more difficult for older riders to get right. It’s one thing to get yourself in the position on a stand but to bend at the waist while riding and not collapse forward you have to be loose and flexible in the hips and hamstrings. Any exercises for this? Yoga maybe lol.

And when you get into the root, your leg will be kicked out from the pedals with high risk to get the knee distortion.

You'd have to specify terms. Like, homogenized bikes on an SX track would give AJ the edge in experience. And racing some rutted outdoors track would favor Jett's MXGP background. Their tracks are super gnarly. I think it'd be a good race but you need to lower the risk factor or raise the incentive to see AJ bring out his real speed. He wont risk anything in a friendly race, and Jett totally will. Straight rhythm would be a great venue for it to raise the incentive. PastranaLand style pitbike race would be a way to lower the risk (kind of lol) But Jett beat him in the 1 armed race. So it's currently 1 - 0, Jett. As far as i know.
