How to do a Motocross Can Can

Video Transcript

"To do a Can-Can when you're approaching the face of the jump, it's good to maybe put a little bit more weight into the, into the bike, a little bit of pre-load as you hit the face of the jump, it's to give you that extra pop and even to bring your front end down just a touch, it makes it a little bit easier to get your leg up and over, through this space, out the other side and back again, before you land. So, what I like to do is you know, I'm leaning into the bike heavy, as I hit the face and then almost like lightening up, kind of jumping, if you will, just really light on your feet, on both of your feet and then bringing this foot up, and through, and then back again, before you land. I can only do it with my right leg, cause I'm you know, I'm right footed, but I'm sure you could do it either way, whichever is more comfortable for you. And, you know it's, I think the only pitfalls of the trick is if you maybe don't get, can't get your leg back in time, you know, that you could, you could definitely crash that way, or just catching your leg. It's kind of a, make sure that as you pop up you have enough clearance to get it out, and you can start with just putting it through and back real quick, and then as you progress, you can even extend the leg as far as you would like and leave it out for a little bit longer, before getting it back, and getting it back in place prior to landing. And, that's how you do a Can-Can."
