Sick pics bro... you look great in that first one.

In a couple it looks like your outside arm isn't resting on the tank... are you still able to keep it relaxed without resting it on there?

I always rest mine on the tank.

Haha yeah I don't know how he is able to keep his arms relaxed when he's got his outside elbow way up in the air... although you see a lot of that when people have lots of dirt experience. Was he a big dirt rider in his youth?

Me, I know if I don't keep my arm down on the tank and calm, I'm not going to be able to keep it relaxed.

Awesome lean angle you got there! One tip though, when they say "look through the corner" they mean forwards...
