the best line is always an aggressive line. Some people can stick to it, some can’T-whether it’s a lack of skill or tuning. There’s no trickery or anything. He’s really good on the pedals. Like I have said else where, a secon spent braking improperly will cost you with a slower entry and exit speed which adds up.
