Re: Brake or not?

get up to 50 and just pull the brake as hard as you can. The harder you pull the farther you roll. That is how all the pros do it

Do you have to twist the throttle at the same time?

Re: Brake or not?

I thought this was a serious thread at first

with the question of:

Whether to hit the back brake while doing an endo or who just leans!!!

NOW COME ON, TO TELL ME ALL OF YOU OUT THERE NEVER EVEN TRIED HITTING THE BACK BREAK WHILE DOING A STOPPIE OR ENDO!

If you havent tried it you better go out and try


myself i lean mostly, hitting the BACK BREAK sends me up so fast that i almost loose it each time.

Re: Brake or not?

Well Hitting The Back Brake While Doing An Endo
Sends You Up Really Fast

Comparing It To A Wheelie It Is Like Using The Clutch

Never trying this method
I Do Not Know How Any Of You Could Call Yourself A True Stunter With Out Ever Using The Rear Brake Along With The Front Brake When Doing An Endo Or Stoppie

Now I know this poll is a f***in joke but if I hit a speed bump going quick enough the back end will really shoot up and I will be doing kinda like a nose bonk type deal in BMX but on my street bike. As far as the no brake endo's go, the real challenge is doing them while sitting backwards with no hands and blindfolded in a straight jacket. When you pull that off, you are officially as much of a as me.

P.S. - The word is spelled BRAKE not BREAK!
