Finding Centre
Most riders have been told to “stay centred", but where exactly is centre — and why does it matter so much?
It is not simply a comfortable position somewhere in the middle of the bike.
Where your body sits changes the pressure going through each tyre, how much steering you have, how predictable the grip feels, and how freely the bike can move underneath you over rough terrain.
Too far one way and the bike can become sharp and reactive.
Too far the other and you can lose far more than just balance.
In this episode, we establish one of the most important reference points in the entire MTB Skills Method™ — a centre you can actually feel, recognise and return to when the terrain, braking or fear starts moving you away from it.
Because if your idea of centre is vague...
your grip and control will be vague too...
