Keep your body positioned toward the center-rear of the motorcycle. This is a staple to most techniques, and in this case, it’ll help the bike stay balanced and under control as it goes over the chop.
Look ahead. This will help link together the section both by being ready for what’s ahead and because the bike follows where your head is pointed.
Find the right gear and coast. This might seem counterintuitive, considering its braking bumps, but staying off the binders will help the bike float over the first moguls.
Squeeze with your legs. The bike will do a lot of up-down-back-forth movement in the rough stuff, which you can control through your lower body.
If possible, hop through! Sometimes two bumps are best used a small jump.
