Track stands are one of the most useful skills to learn for mountain biking. It can help you with slow-speed handling, general balance and much more! Often used in racing the track stand involves balancing on your bike without moving or touching the ground with your feet. Rich and Blake have some great tips to get you track standing in no time.

We use it a lot in endless-winter-alberta, fat biking, where you spin on snow to a stop, track stand, then reset to take off again and a super low cadence power level to not spin without touching a foot down, I'll have to try more front tire angle, me likey.

what really helped me to learn was rolling the front tire into a wall. Keep it on the wall with pressure, then try to roll back a few inches then go right back onto the wall.

If learning on a slight incline, it is much easier if you are across the incline, like Blake at around 2:30, but turn your front wheel up the slope. To do this you need to have your dominant foot on the uphill side, as you want to turn the wheel towards the dominant foot. It is then much easier to push against the slope with the pressure on your pedals.

I learnt via BMX racing. Pressed against the gate. ❤ then without the gate then pointing uphill then finally on flat. Now I do it merely for shits and giggles 😊

This is a totally off topic question. im standing between canyon strive anectral. My riding style is like blakes (but im not as good tho :D), i mostly do flow trails and like jumps. Im thinking spectral but the 150mm fron travel is scaring me a bit. at the same time I dont think i need more since i mostly do the flow trails

Always learn trackstands clipped in and film yourself doing it. Forget about modern cliples pedals, go oldschool with toeclips, the tighter the better. I'm just joking. Here's mr.
