It definitely looks like you are looking more comfortable on the bike.  Keep riding and more seat time.  Good Video.

Yeah I'm feeling more and more comfortable .. thanks

I am from time to time still having this Nose dive problem when i get air  but i think i am figuring it out .
this last Saturday i got some good air and wish I got it on video but I landed like I was doing a stoppie and rolled out of it . the spectators that were around thought I was pulling a trick and thought it was Awesome but reality i thought i was going over and biff it but didnt .
i did notice that maybe i am trying to manipulate this bike to much . that last moment before getting air I move chest forward ,brace and pull back .
i think my problem is that I have my weight all wrong and I'm trying to work the bike to much not letting it just go . does this make since?
and i noticed as well , i tried using the rear brake right before a Berm and feels more controllable but not very natural .
Should I keep practicing this method .is it a good habit ?

My Bro is a maniac. As for the nose dive thing, he says: "Never before has pin-it-to-win-it been more appropriate."

he also says that the DRZ is such a pig that if you flat land it on the big stuff it is a fairly jarring bottom out.

He is riding a 2001 DRZ400E electric start only lol!

oh and watch this video and enjoy...I'm gnarly too brah!

That was great especially the beeping as they pass by other riders on the track .

Thanks and tell your brother thanks too . I'll remember that and see if it helps.
