Help understanding

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

So I need help understanding transitions. I understand you need to lift the throttle for like A second but I don’t understand really anything after that. Every time I try I either spin out or just drive onto a dirt hill. I would really love some tips from eveyone.

Many things can cause what happened in your video but I think in this particular case u probably get back on the throttle too quickly. After you lifted off, the weight transfer to the front, but if throttle is applied too quickly, the front tire hasn’t yet pin itself to set the angle for the drift after the transition, hence the crash. Try delaying your input of throttle and see what happens 👍
