I grew up skiing Killington. I was invited to go this coming weekend with a few friends from Rhode Island but decided the Supercross might be more fun.
Skiing is like riding a motorcyle (if you do it right).

I actually wrote an article called "how well do you bounce" and in it I credited martial arts for helping me be able to fall in such a manner that I didn't get hurt often. I've had many crashes but thankfully have rarely been hurt. I think I have a good awareness of where my body is in relation to the ground when I'm flying, hahahah. Great thread! Misti

I'm a drummer too and It does help, being able to have all 4 limbs work independent actions in conjunction is HUGE when it comes to riding. I find it no problem to brake with right hand and foot while down shifting relatively seamlessly with the left side.

Mountain biking and video games. Thousands of hours of both as a kid and teen.

After a shooting session today I realized another that I though fitting for this thread.
Ever shot a bow? That same time frame, mindset and calmness between when you draw back the bow and release the arrow is how I feel during corner setup and the dive into the turn. Elegant, smooth, relaxed and razor sharp.

Oooh, I've been thinking of getting my own bow. I've been using my brother's on occasion, but he thinks I should get a lighter pull one for myself. His has a 50lbs draw weight, and he thinks I should go for a 35-40 at most for a first bow. I think he really wants me to get a 30 though.

What about the flip side? Are there things that you do that might have a negative effect on your riding? Are there sports or other types of riding styles that might cause you to develop bad habits with your riding? Misti
