A couple of weeks ago I watched a video of French stunt rider Jorian Ponomareff drifting his sportbike around a coned obstacle course, and I was totally blown away. I have to admit I’ve probably watched that video a dozen times since then, and I am still amazed at his bike control. Earlier today I came across another video of Ponomareff doing the more traditional stunt maneuvers such as circle wheelies and stoppies. What struck me is the control and precision that he commands his bike with; it’s absolutely awe-inspiring. Take a look for yourself.
