Over the years of ATVing with friends and family, there's something that I realize I do every time someone new to ATV decides that they want to have a go at the game. And that is to pass them a copy of my ATV riding videos and books before they get their own ATV. You see, the point is for them to take a look at what the game is all about before they go and waste their savings on an ATV that they're not going to use. I wouldn't want my friends and family be blame me for not telling them what it is all about before they jumped into it.

There are not too many good ATV videos around these days. Some of the good ones are still in VHS format – most of us have either decided not to repair our brokendown VHS player or we no longer have a player like that anymore. We're more into the compact VCDs and DVDs now. But the good ones are almost always in VHS format…which is a pity.

Most of the ATV videos we have in the market just shows the viewers impressive stunts and features some popular ATV riders. Some of them even attempt to soft sell you their ATV stuff like accessories and spare parts right smack in the middle of the video. The really good ones would not only show you the proper way to ride an ATV, they will also reveal some ATV racing techniques…just in case you decide to enter a competition.

Look up a video I saw some time back on the Internet…it's called Riding Techniques of Team Maxxis. This is definite MUST WATCH if you're a beginner in ATVing. In fact, I'd say that this video is good for those who are interested in improving their ATV riding techniques. What I liked about the video was the bloopers and the mistakes they did while filming. I thought that was a nice touch.

Instructional videos like this one would surely help beginners understand the game more while providing a deeper insight for the enthusiast. There's always something new to learn when it comes to ATVing. In fact, even experts in ATV riding will admit that they don't know everything under the sun.
