Your vids keep getting better and better Aaron! So cool to see you giving back. You’re a good dude 🤘🏻

Having an icon, a legend who up with Greg Minaar and Nico and select other downhill greats, explain all of these techniques on KZfaq for all of us us to enjoy and learn from is indescribably awesome. Just points to his character to be giving so much back to the sport.

most clearly taught flat corners video ever. Master class...

This guy Aaron Gwin may have it down pat. He should think about racing downhill mtb. He may even win a race a world cup or even win one without a chain. Keep up the great work and thank you for giving back to the younger generation and old dudes like myself to remember things to stay up with my 19 your old Son. Well at least to ride the same trails as him. haha Thanks again.

Natural instructor. Great reasoning, straight to the point without complexity which can dilute the lesson. Please continue this. Subbed, liked etc.

This video and the ‘Cornering with your eyes’ video just solved 90% of my problems with carrying speed through sections. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!

what a time to be alive where we can get a cornering video by a wc rider AND not have to pay for it?

What a master class of a series Aaron! You definitely rock & are helping the whole world along with stuff like this 🌎🚲💨😎

Master Coach! Thank you for sharing THE developed knowledge and perspective in a super dynamic and conducive format complete with beautiful scenery and great production!

Started watching your learn to series. I loved the previous one and learned a lot (the use the whole trail if you can to look for a faster path not just the main trail) You're a natural instructor! Very clear explanation and easy to understand

Loving your videos Aaron. Your breakdowns and explanations are so clear and easy to understand. I can't wait for the rain to stop here so I can get out and work on my turns. I broke my rib after washing out on a berm a few months back and have lost a heap of confidence coming into flat turns and berms. Need to build that back up again and you've given me a great place to start. Cheers!

When I saw "Aaron Gwin" and "Cornering" on my feed I was pumped to watch the video. Awesome tips! Can't wait for more to come. Between Aaron's channel and Ben Cathro's recent series I'm sure learning a lot.

To get this type of content from arguably one of the best is amazing! All the best in the up coming season mate 🤗

Even for me who’s an experienced rider these back to basics videos are much appreciated. You’re a brilliant mentor Aaron. Thankyou.

In Part II id love to see you provide coaching on the “scandi flick” and to demonstrate these concepts at WC pace. Thanks for taking the time to produce these AG!

How awesome to have Aaron Gwin himself teaching cornering! I am surprised that KZfaq did not recommend this video to me earlier. So helpful!

Such quality information. Cornering correctly in different types of turns is one I struggle with. It’s easy to forget just one of the many parts that goes into it. When you do get them all together and rail a corner the feeling is so good. Thanks for posting and sharing the techniques used. Now once the snow melts I can get back out and rewatch this video. Cheers bud 💥💯🤙

Really great to have a pro rider teaching fundamental bike skills. That knowledge and experience really comes through and the style of teaching is really accommodating. Thanks Aaron

I'm a dirt bike guy using MTB as cross training/cardio and this video was literally perfect for me. Thanks Aaron!

Thanks Aaron I'm gonna try it this week and dial in my turns! Keep the video coming!

Thank you. I’ve been really going backwards in my riding coz of lack of confidence (& skills) in corners (choosing to walk many)! I’m gonna totally take it back to basics and try to get this dialed. Thank you.

Thanks Gwin. I especially appreciate the MX references. Your videos are very helpful. Keep it up.

Really well explained and good detail compared to other cornering videos I’ve watched. Thanks!

Thx Senor Gwin!! Would love it if you could talk about weight distribution between the tires in your upcoming videos. When are you centered on the bike, when do you weight the front or the back tire . Fear of loosing traction in my front tire is what slows me down the most.

This was immediately useful. Been riding for decades and flat turns were always my biggest challenge. I learned more in the first 8 minutes than in all or the 4 or 5 other videos I’ve watched. Clear explanations broken down simply. Great video, thank you.

Great video! I came from dirt bikes and haven't ridden bikes since I was a kid and just couldn't get comfortable. I could see my friends do this in the first turn or 2 until they lost me but I couldn't break the mental cognative dissonance and get it right. Thank you for the explanation and video examples.

Awesome tutorial! Probably one of the best cornering video I've seen.

Thanks a lot. I am riding bikes for years now, but it's super heplful to get reminded on the most important basics!

Best technique Video i‘ve seen👍🏼 good to hear you talk not only about the „how“ but also about the „why“!this ist missing in a lot technique videos! Keep it up 🤟🏽

Knowing your subject good enough to explain it simply is key to a great video like this! Thank You Aaron Gwin! This will make me a better rider!

Good to see you taking a stance on the foot down vs level pedal debate, with a bit of nuance added. Nice thing about your videos is that their is no question that your techniques work.

Love these videos dude, always look forward to watching them. Keep it up!!

Thanks Aaron! This is really gonna help me ride faster at my local races. Your vids are much appreciated!

i was dubious about watching an almost 20 mins vid about cornering, now I'm glad i watched it! great presentation dude, big respect to ya!!

Aaron thabk you so much for sharing you knowledge and experience. I've been working on my corners technique and those exercises/drills will be very welcome. Also noticed that your videos are getting a noticeable higher quality. Thank you so much for you time, effort and knowledge.

Aaron, just wanted to thank you for these. My daughter and I watch these and study them. She just joined the HS MTB team so anything to teach her to be faster. Great training aid, keep them coming. Murrieta local🤙🏻

This is fantastic! Can't wait to get out and practice these drills!!

Another fantastic video. I’m definitely going to incorporate the oval and figure 8 drills in my training. I tend to jump to the slalom drill too early.

This was really helpful. I learned cornering on a Streetbike where you actually position your body on the inside of the bike/turn and kind of hang off the inside of the bike in order to get a knee down and keep the bike more upright. I never realized it was the opposite for bicycles or dirtbikes.. Will give it a shot, Cheers!

Love the emphasis you put on the feet rather than just pressure from the hands that I tend to see from a lot of mtb guys, coming from moto it makes a lot more sense!

Thank Aaron for awesome lesson !. I used to ride downhill bike but I quit it for sometime. But after watching your video, I feel I want to ride again ! 😊😊

Thanks for confirming what I've always thought about the 'range of foot drop' for different cornering situations. Growing up motocrossing, we always weighted the outside peg - and I've maintained that line of thinking with my mountain biking. That's where experimentation and rider experience really factors in. But, this is the first time I ever heard a rider of Aaron's caliber describe this nuance so effectively. Great video! Little mental trick - draw a straight line from your tire contact straight up, no matter the lean angle and the perceived center of mass is always straight up from there - gravity always follows the path to the center of the earth, so orienting yourself within this vertical path provides the most cornering grip into your tires.... (and illustrates why when Aaron says not to lean your body into the corner, as this takes you off the center of mass path)

As a beginner, I have learned a lot from your technical videos. Your demonstration and subtitles helped me more cause my English is not good enough. Excellent channel. Thank you Aaron!

After coming back to mountain biking after 10 years, I’m glad to find new mentors, like yourself, to level me back up. Been working on cockpit setup, using my heels, and suspension tuning on my Intense 951 XC for the last couple of months. Some rides are better than others, but I learn on every ride. Gonna throw these drills into the mix. Time to buy some short cones! Thanks Aaron!

Thank you. Excellent communicator of technique and application while simplifying the complex.

Super helpful! thanks for the breakdown and simple drills

Best instructional material on youtube, thanks man!

Very clear and detailed Aaron, I'm going to use the one hand leaning with the kiddos of our bike school... I'm sure they'll have fun trying it!! 🙂

I’ve been struggling with this for a while. Watched your vid, hit the trail, and it just clicked. Absolute game changer for me - thanks Aaron!!

Thank you, Aaron! These are great.

Very well explained, thanks Aaron

This is awesome, thanks Aaron. I’ll be practicing this as soon as the snow melts:)

Super helpful. Sharing with my high school MTB kids.

Really good advice and technique shown in this vid. I've 3 boy's ....all avid mtbers, all at different levels. this will help us all. And help close the gab in levels so we can all ride together going forward as a group. 3 great drill we can practice in our spare time at home. Then take it to the trails on the wkends . thanks a million.....!!!🚵🚵🚵💪💪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪

Another great one Aaron! Thanks for sharing 👌 I get moto cornering basics such as weighting the outside peg and the attack position. They translate to MTB so well!

Awesome Awesome VId Brotha... Thanx so much for all you do and keep shredding!!!

Excellent! Very helpful. Great job 👏🏻

Love it! Thank you Aaron! I am subscribed and following! I am going to start practicing with my kids in the yard and driveway.

Thanks arron the video was amazing. Really helps when you explain everything probably. Keep them coming.🤙

Wow…I’ve always had questions on whether to fully drop the outside foot. If the corners come at you quickly, it gets very awkward. You explained this very thoroughly. Thank you.

This video really helped me improve my cornering. Thanks!

Very helpful vid! Thank you for insisting on the learning process, step by step recepe for learning.

Excellent video Aron - thank you!

Thank you so much for the advise! Keep up with the awesome videos!

Thank you Aaron! That was amazing and helpful

Just bought a bike after a 25 year mtb hiatus, was dropping and pressuring the outside foot on turns and wanted to make sure I was using correct form. Thanks for the video was helpful. By the way, went with the intense taser MX expert, to substitute for my KTM 300 XC.

revelation, bro. self taught experienced rider but i found myself countersteering and just shifting weight back every turn. your lesson was magic. works just as well on road.

great inspiration before i get on the bike today, thanks!

Great video! im in my late 20's and have been riding for a while now and am pretty decent and picked up some of this naturally. however, I never had the recourses to get proper instruction. Ive watched a ton on the internet and it was nice to see how you took this huge topic and really broke it down. Im looking forward to practicing this in the near future its still snowing where im at but the spring I just around the corner! I really appreciate you taking the time to do this and im definitely taking out the old go pro so I can analyze myself after the fact. I think that will help me a ton with reassuring myself that Im doing what you said to do right! keep up the great work!

Thanks a lot man! Love the way you broke it down.

Pretty much what we teach per the BICP program. Great points Aaron!

Brilliant, if only I'd seen something this good years ago! Thanks Aaron

the best corner video I have seen, thanks!

Fantastic !!! Thank you so much that was so well explained and great practical tips , Stay healthy and happy 🤩🤩🤩

Wow. amazing, been riding years but learned loads !

This is helpful stuff! I especially like the part about different foot forward vs left or right turn.

Great video! you're an excellent teacher.

This stuff is gold. Thanks!

That was nice to watch. Thanks!

Very detailed and easy to understand. 👍I hope I can improve this year utilizing these points. Thumbnail is on point too 🙂👍

Great video. Exactly what I what I was looking for to improve flat turn speed and traction during gravel racing.

Only been riding a couple years ... from understanding the elbow position and overall body positioning from your tips ... I realize my bike geo and cockpit setup might be a bit off... thanks Champ!

Awesome video. Thanks for the tips.

very helpful!! just what I was looking for 🙏

Very well explained!

This will help me immensely. Thank you

Great video Aaron! Loving the "how to..." videos. I am interested in learning more about dynamic weight shifts throughout supported and unsupported turns; how your weight shifts from front to rear as you move through the turn. Any advise on this would be greatly appreciated. Keep up the good work!

Such good content. Thanks!

Oh yeah!! Getting after these tips!!!!

this video is awesome and perfectly explained.

Subbed. I really like that you gave specific examples of how to move your body instead of just saying "separate bike from body."

This is such a great video tutorial on turns! It may seem obvious, but I feel it’s important to point out (as you did) that turns are made standing.

Good job, mr...

So important, so good. Thank you 🙏🏼

Best cornering vid I have ever seen

Thank you for the instructional video. I'm 54 and I've spent about 2 weeks total on a bike. I recently bought a fat ebike and quickly realized that I need to develop some basic skills. Just learning to ride with my right foot forward is a challenge. It will take a while to get the right muscles strengthened so I can maintain the correct form during turns. You've taught an old dog some new tricks. Thank you again.

Nice explanation of a basic skill. I can use this.

Your videos are so good dude

I'm sure my cornering technique is horrific. I'm definitely going to take some time this spring to work on this!! Well done Aaron.

Great video very informative👊🏼
