Seat bone awareness work (hard surface / simulator)

What It Does

Hard surface or simulator work removes the cushioning that masks asymmetry. Gives the rider a real, un-filtered contact point so positional awareness is based on fact rather than assumption.

What to Feel

Both seat bones contacting independently. The ability to shift weight consciously from one to the other. A clear sense of whether they are level or not.

Common Mistakes

  • Gripping to find the sensation rather than releasing into it.
  • Checking once and assuming it stays the same under movement.
  • Confusing a felt asymmetry with an actual structural difference — one side feeling lighter is not the same as one leg being shorter.
