Stunting till your hand falls off

Just wondering if anyone else that stunts has this problem. Everytime i practice for more than 2 hours, my left fingers/hand/forearm feels like it got AIDS(numbness, burning sensation) and wants to fall off for the next 2 days. Anyone else have this?

Re: Stunting till your hand falls off

hell yeah arm/hand pump.....back when i raced dirt bikes and did FMX i would get that sh*t all tha time

feels like you can't do sh*t with your cluch hand...you just gotta do strength training on your hands and forearms...build up those muscles that your use all the time...if you have seen tha MTV thing with tonyD and kyle woods in it KW talks about how you gotta do diffrent things to get your body in tune for what your doin

Re: Stunting till your hand falls off

That **** kills me. After about 2-3 hours I cant really do circles anymore or anything that requires clutch or handbrake use.

Re: Stunting till your hand falls off

I get very bad pump. I've been riding for a long time and I'll still get it within 20 minutes of riding or so. Some people just get it worse than others. If I had the money I'd get the surgery that a lot of racers and MX guys get to eliminate arm pump.

Re: Stunting till your hand falls off

Sambo, run a MSR Raptor clutch if you arent already. Put that **** all the way back on the settings. I get arm pump mostly from the Hand brake, it sucks!

Re: Stunting till your hand falls off

I play giutar too and only heavy metal/speed/harcore stuff and never got arm or wrist pains from picking but i have noticed my fingers going numb on the fret hand.

This only seems to happen after 2-3 hours of riding. Mainly kicks in when I do circles. **** gets real frustrating. I'm almost at the point where i don't want to stunt anymore. But my drive for stunting overcomes me and i forget about the consequences of arm disease. Then i have the worst freaking pains for 2-3 days. It's not fun waking up 100 times in the middle of the night with your arm burning so bad, that you dump cold water on it because it literally feels like your wrist/arm is on fire.
