Default riding corners switch and KASA

I ride regular, so my switch is goofy.......(Bear with me)

At the corners in Thorpe, would you go round heelside, or heel to toe? When I ride regular I go toe to heel.....trying to get my head round this....

I heard someone mention you need to ride the whole way round switch before attempting kickers and getting the KASA ticket? Is this true?

Is it just me or is there less weed this summer?

Not sure about the KASA ticket.

I'm keen to do it myself so will ask this week when I'm down there.

You can't hit the sliders or kickers until you do the KASA course. I heard you need to go down on a Thursday, and do the KASA thing, costs an extra tenner. Dunno about the riding switch though.

Yep asked the guys at JB and as mentioned it costs an extra £10 on top of the cable ride fee to do the KASA Introduction.

Guys told me that Mark runs this every Thursday and all you need to do is bell them up and put your name on the list.

I asked about riding switch but he didnt seem to think that was a problem only said that you will need to supply your own crash helmet to protect your noodle.

I'm planning to go for it next Thursday so will let you know the score :lol:
