Default Some Riding Questions

Today I was riding my R down at this pretty cool place. They have whoops and jumps and trails and stuff. Well I was going over the whoops. I would go and as soon as got to the top of the whoop, I would hit the throttle, then let it drift to the next one and hit the throttle and next one and hit the throttle. My friend who has a CR85 says it's bad too do that. He said I will file plugs and chew up sprockets. (Some one of you guys told me, I should never file a plug if it's jetted right, he disagreed with that of course). So he tells me you have to just keep it in powerband and never let off at all over whoops. He said if you do you shouldn't even be riding a 2 stroke. So I watched him go over them, and He did it the exact same way cept he said he was doing it different.

What I am getitng down to is, is it alright to go over whoops the way I do? Or is he right?

I atleast try to understand what he tells me, and I couldn't figure this out. Yet, he never listens to me and more than half the time I am right.

Anyone? I'd rather not mess up my bike. Is the way I do it alright?

I think your friend is right about yo shouldn't let up but try i both ways which ever one you think feels better do it but if you choose to let up you might be buying some new stuff.

The whoops tho are too big and you can't fly over them in powerband...my brother who rides an RM125 says it won't hurt a thing.

okay listen up who ever told you that and responded to that does not now what he or she is talking about. use common sense and take them the smoothest and fastest way. how is blipping the throttle suposed two wreck your quad and foul plugs. if you keep it pinned how are you going to keep your rythim you should let off in the air and on the down landing giver power and rev out to avoid nosediving then just keep the pattern. brapp______brapp_____brapp_____and so on
