Gate Starts From The Ground Up

This book is a new take on what it takes to get a great BMX gate start. In the time it takes you to blink your eye, how you perform a BMX gate start will be the difference between winning or losing.

There is a lot that goes into gate starts. Much more than many actually realize. Learning or teaching someone to get a great gate can be very frustrating and often times, unsuccessful.

What is this book about and who its book for?

If you are like me, you probably have found yourself doing hundreds or even thousands of gate starts in an attempt to perfect the art of the holeshot. You may have also found that despite all your effort, you have not got the results you were looking for. I also experienced frustration from the lack of results.

It wasn't until one day I had a bit of an epiphany. After performing and observing thousands of BMX gate starts, I finally noticed what the riders with great starts did that others did not do. I then observed many more starts to confirm what I was seeing.

From my background in coaching sports performance to all kinds of athletes, what great BMX racers did in the first half of a second in the gate start made perfect sense to me. It also made perfect sense why I myself always struggled to get a better 2nd and 3rd pedal.

Gate Starts From The Ground Up is not another book telling you to roll your wrists, point your toes, tilt your head, etc... There are many resources available that already give you that advice. That old advice is not wrong, it's just not going to fix a fundamental flaw in your starting technique that you are possibly doing.

This book dives deep into the human movement patterns that are needed to get a great start. To my knowledge, no other book or resource has been written that focuses on this essential element of the start. All of the old tips such as rolling wrists, pointing toes, focusing eyes on a particular spot, etc... are icing on the cake. Gate Starts From The Ground Up is the proverbial cake. Most people are attempting to improve their starts, but are missing the most foundational element of proper technique. Without this element, you will never get the most out of your start.

In this book, not only do I tell you what you should do, I show you how to do it.

Learning a movement can be difficult. Re-learning a movement is even harder. Now when you factor in that a BMX gate start is performed in a blink of an eye, fixing technique is nearly impossible without an experienced coach to guide you through the process. This book will not only help you fix your gate, it will give you the tools to help others learn to improve their start.

This book will give you a step by step process to re-build a better gate start from the ground up. Learning gate starts by doing more gate starts does not work. Believe me, I've tried it. I've tried to coach others this way. The only times I've successfully helped riders is when I've had them take a step back and re-build through my step by step process.

If you are frustrated with your gate starts, this book is for you. If you are frustrated with trying to teach gate starts, this book is for you.
