Or the old axiom: slow in, fast out.

If you don't have one already, get a GoPro and mount it where you can see what you're doing as well as out the windshield. You will learn so much by replaying your sessions. Also listen to it. Listen when you're lifting and getting back on the gas.

As a newbie, you want to be slow and get faster. Trying to be fast off the bat is dangerous. But watching your sessions afterwards will be one of the best ways to learn where to improve. The bullets are flying fast when it's happening, so having the ability to review afterwards in a calm setting is invaluable. You'll be surprised what you might see vs what you think you're doing.

Welcome to the addictive & expensive hobby of DE.
