Active Riding
Overview
“Active Riding” is the second part of “P.A.S.S.” It involves an understanding of
how your body weight, balance, gravity, and physical forces affect the handling of
the ATV. For example, when you drive a car quickly into a sharp turn, your body is
pulled to the outside of the vehicle by centrifugal force. Although a car is relatively
stable, enough centrifugal force can cause an ATV to overturn. Constantly shifting
your weight is one major difference between driving a car and riding an ATV.
Knowing how to shift your weight is necessary to avoid rolling or flipping the ATV.
For complete operating instructions, see ATV Operation sub-section in this manual.
