Hurdles >> Jumping on hurdles is all about maintaining stability mid air. If you are going for smaller jumps keep your head and the handle straight, but if going for higher jumps, ensure you lock the handle when in air. This will give you stability. Straighten it back just before you are about to hit the ground. Your legs should never leave the bike, and ensure you don’t rev up the engine too much either. For someone who rides only once a month, this jump on second gear was pretty awesome.

Turns >> Sharp turns could be tricky for an untrained rider. The best way to do it is to keep the leg towards the turn side up, this way, when and if needed, you could use it to support your bike at the turn.
