"trick" tips... not "track" tips.

If you were trying to be a smart***, shoulda said, "Yeah, try the BMX forum."

Cynikal 07-24-07 02:28 PM

My bad, I thought he said track.

Gyeswho 07-24-07 02:38 PM

besides practicing and studying how others do it, what tricks are you specifically talking about?
I can do:
3 point turn reverse
reverse circles (here's a lil; i only did one because i was focusing on just reverse riding in general http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kRdqzb21nTc
but now i'm trying to learn how to do it with no hands but its a tuffy)
180 skid
360 skid
hockey stop
trackstand (incl one hand, no hand)
one foot on pedal, other on front wheel trackstand
bunnyhop (nothing serious but it gets the job done)


which one you need help on?

masterjack 07-24-07 03:03 PM

you know... I tried. gosh.:(

but really, I have actually done the full 360 skid. a couple times I actually over rotated and almost did 540ish and fell gloriously.

thebristolkid 07-24-07 05:23 PM

Babychris, is that down under 95?

I usually practice my far-less-advanced stuff under 95 between Washington and Christian. Maybe I should check out the deck hockey rink.

Uhh that equals 450 and he clearly ended up at 360. I think you meant 90 revert.

For no-handed track stands, sit your @$$ down. In fact, I couldn't do a normal track stand until I sat down and stopped trying to do it standing. I guess I just needed to be more relaxed.

masterjack 07-25-07 03:42 PM

track stands are fukin easy already (no handed, too)...i need help on other stuff. somebody just walk us through a cool trick, step by step

1) blah blah blah
2) blah blah blah, but be careful because blah blah blah
3) have fun!!!!!

like so

thats true. you cant learn to ride a bike over the internet per se. the internet can, however, give you a general idea of what you need to be doing and an idea of how to do it.
