1. Shift your body weight as far back

tral.

the throttle lever completely.
Sidehilling/Traversing
Sidehilling is considered an advanced
skill; it’s really tricky and unpredictable.
So, whether your skills are advanced or
not, try to avoid this kind of riding. If
you’re in a situation where you abso-
lutely have to sidehill, follow this
method:
ATV-0017
ATV-0028
ATV-0029
1. Keep your speed low and consistent.
2. Shift all your body weight to the
uphill side of the seat; also, support
your weight on the uphill footrest.
3. Steer like you’re driving into the
hill.
4. If the ATV feels like it’s tipping,
turn the handlebar downhill. If that’s
not possible because of the terrain or
other conditions or if it just doesn’t
work, stop and get off. Dismount the
ATV on the uphill side.
Swerving
Swerving is usually an emergency reac-
tion to avoid an obstacle but is similar to
quick turns. The difference is that quick
turns involve slight acceleration in the
turn; don’t accelerate if you swerve.
