Some corners are too tight to steer around, and putting your foot down stops your flow. In this video, I’ll teach you four different ways to get through tight corners and switchbacks without a foot down, starting with the easiest way to practice them.

The four skills are:

1. Ratchet
2. Back Wheel Pivot
3. Pedal Pressure Turn
4. Front Wheel Pivot
