How do I stop my feet slipping off?
@Dammit ;
Get a set of the moto-x pins that DMR use on the Brendan Fairclough signature Vaults. They're perfect with the Stealth soles, I have an older pair of 5.10 Team shoes with stealth soles and Brendogs and it's a great setup!
Back on the flat pedals today, for around an hour of Bedgebury - it was interesting. Slipped off them quite a bit initially, which is what makes me feel hugely insecure when using them (Adidas MTB shoes with a sole that says "stealth" on it and DMR Vault Mg pedals), but stuck with it and found that my bunny hop was much better immediately as I had to move my weight around to get the bike off the ground properly rather than just pulling my feet up under me.
Also actually pushed through the jumps, getting the rear wheel to properly take off the lip rather than jumping early (which I knew to be a bad habit). I'll stick with them, but it's going to be a while before I bed the weight movements into muscle memory.
