On a mountain bike, hitting the brakes won't do anything, because the tires and wheels don't weigh as much as a dirt bike's wheels. The dirt bikes in air attitude can be changed through the centrifugal force created by the wheels. Unfortunatley you can't reproduce that on a bike. You just have to do it with your shoulders or hips. The very reason that I can't go off road with my Fiori mountain bike anymore

my wrists and knees, and elbows, and ankles etc, get sore just watching that. Mostly because I remember doing stupid sh!t almost that stupid when I was younger.

The shocks on a dirtbike will protect your joints for a while, but look at Travis Pastrana, retired at 25, almost unable to ride anymore. I love watching, and I love riding my 1975 Kawi H1 500, but there's no way I'd be able to go off road anymore. And I just turned 30 in August.
