Trying to teach the son how to side hill and carve. I have told him everything and he just can't get it? Is there some tips that you have? I don't know what to do, he's pretty big and on a 600 he can pull it over when it's not moving lol. Need help!

His biggest habit is putting his knee on seat so it doesn't help at all

He'll listen better to someone other than his dad. Find a bud to spend some time showing him. My brother-in-law gets pissed when his kids will pay attention when I show them something, but their eyes glaze over if he tells them the same thing.

Same thing goes with women. they never listen to their husbands. I find that they learn better from some one other than family

you might be able to find something on youtube that will help... other wise I usually start by telling green people to shift their weight to the top side of the hill and counter steer.... then the throttle is your best friend. I also find learning to carve on the flat is very useful in learning to side hill....
