I don't often post outside the Diablo Park forum, but this is more a general topic.
Last few times I have ridden DH, I have had to call it a day because my knuckles and index/middle (braking) fingers are in burning pain going through rough terrain. I have read a couple things here and there saying to avoid a death clench on the bars, but going through some of this terrain it seems like a loose grip is just asking for the bars to get tweaked from my hands.
What are some good techniques or things I should be doing to keep my fingers from getting so sore?
