    A month ago I ordered his replica helmet just because I liked the colors and the brand. Then I found out he rides for Suzuki which I have. Now I found out he’s putting out the best content of any pro rider. Couldn’t be more proud to wear a helmet. Thank you and keep up the good work

    As a dirt bike rider as well i can say the dangle has saved me on the street from a number of low sides. If you saw that motogp break down of Marquez’s incredible ow side recovery. He used perfect timing of pushing up off the ground with his knee and his elbow and gave it gas at the perfect time and allows recovery of a potential low side crash. Also living in a huge farm area with lots of tractors 🚜 going from the orchards right on to the main roads makes some places a nightmare to ride and sometimes don’t find out till to late. This is also the reason the flat track riders who basically are riding the line between drifting and low siding use this and once the doctor starting racing this style he started using it in motoGP. If you don’t use it on the street maybe you should it could save you from a low side one time and you will do nothing but say holy shit and laugh it off. I did and had to make a phone call after i was so hyped up from saving it haha! It’s funny all these guys makes videos on what the doctor thinks yet no one has asked it himself everyone wants to be the smart scientist that knows the reason and funny thing is everyone probably trying so hard they are probably way over shooting the reason lmao

    Hi ! Merci pour ces explications, tu viens de tordre le cou à des heures de discutions de comptoir. Le sujet que tu as abordé m'avait toujours questionné du point de vue réglementaire. En effet le règlement FFM pour les courses sur route interdisait de sortir le pied (pilotage motocross). C'était je te l'accorde il y a bien longtemps ( à cette époque c'était ton père et son binôme Claude Bonnet que je retrouvais sur les parkings, en G2...). Quoiqu'il en soit merci pour ton intervention. Keep it up !
