Zeckaro on April 13, 2026 4:32 pm Maybe a dumb question but can you hit the back brake to correct the bike position mid air, kind of like on a dirt bike? Or does that not work on MTB?

latestagepersonhood on April 13, 2026 4:53 pm when I used to snowboard, we called that “fatty to flatty”. I dont know how realistic trying to scrub a bit of this jump is but..
