Hey guys, new to the forum, been racing mx for two years now and just have a quick question.
I've done various research through forums but hoping you guys can help.
So I've been told my form in the air is like a vintage motocross racer, basically butt back and arms with a bend, sometimes I'm closer to the bars, sometimes I'm not lol. I don't even realize I'm doing it in the air, it's just how I'm comfortable on the bike. I'm squeezing properly and everywhere else on the track my form is consistent with how it "should" be, but in the air I sometimes go all old-school lol... Maybe I was a vintage racer in a past life haha.

Obviously I realize that as bikes developed and changed, that the proper form while riding changed as well but I'm essentially just wondering if my form in the air isn't good? Should I maybe move my bars and angle my levers to get me more forward on the bike? or does it even matter?
For reference I'm almost 5'9.
Thanks!
