    One thing that I can tell is that the MSF does not teach the their instructors to teach this method. The MSF teaches all 4 fingers on the grip and then all 4 fingers on the brake lever. ... Just in case you wanted to know that.
    i can endo with one finger, four fingers is ludicrous. just like the puss, start with one finger then work your way up to two if needed.

    I always cover my brake with one finger. I honestly need to learn to not cover it on corner exits but it's just an old habit from riding Bmx.
