A detailed analysis of each move, as I came to understand and
practise them, will help beginners crack some of the non-trivial
or counter-intuitive techniques. All the basics are covered with
extensive tips and videos (the best way to learn any move is by far to see it performed by other riders and then try it
for yourself.
Most advanced and expert riding techniques are covered too, and new pages are being built
as the techniques evolve.
But if you feel some techniques are missing or could be better explained,
please let us know. Your feedback is very much appreciated and could help fellow riders.

Why TrashZen?
Well... It's all about trashing your bike around,
but with the Zen feel of full control in the air. It is like if time had stopped during these little tricky
instants of zero gravity, during a big gap jump or during a perfect move. The word conveys the Zen side of mental preparation,
Trashed by the occasional failure or crash... Still not very clear?...hmmm... well...
You'll get a clearer picture by riding Trials.
