How to ride a tight switchback
By applying a strategic amount of front brake and twisting your hips, you can gracefully swing your bike around tight switchbacks.
Riding tight switchbacks cleanly is an art form. There are a number of tricks to get around them like locking up the rear end or doing a creeping tracking stand, but none work as well (or as as trail friendly) as the endo.
The best part of this technique is that the fundamentals can easily be learned over the course of an afternoon. To learn the secret behind unlocking this skill, give this tutorial by GMBN a view. And if you’re interested in having this skill and others broken down into easier steps, I highly recommend checking out Ryan Leech’s website.
