Explanation
Answer: D - ‘Wave Riding’ refers to a technique in which participants in the standing climb position shift body weight forward and back over the saddle. Participants should remain centered over the saddle and not lean form left to right, and keep their body position upright as they move slightly forward and back over the saddle. The movement simulates riding over small ‘rollers’ or waves, and shifts the effort back and forth from quadriceps to hamstrings.
