Developmental phases (not skill levels)
Just for fun...
hitarock hypothesizes that there are three "developmental phases" to riding MUni.
They are not so much skill levels as levels of *Muturity*.
- Phase 1. Avoid everything. Ride conservatively. Stay upright. Major associative feeling: fear.
- Phase 2. Hit everything. Challenge and try to surmount all obstacles and still stay upright. Major associative feeling: adrenaline poisoning.
- Phase 3. Jump everything. Try to put air between the wheel and every obstacle. Try to stay airborne, which is, of course, a qualitatively new type of "uprightness". Major associative feeling: self-actualization.
I think we're on to something here.
