I got my wheelies up higher.......i learned umm christs where 1 foot is on the tank and the other is on the seat and your sideways, got my highchairs off the ground, can jump into highchair position.....thing I thought i was gonna accomplish was being able to ride slow wheelies at like 15mph steadily but cant do it.....im bummed. Still got some time to ride though.

Re: Summer is over, what did you accomplish as a stunter???

I really wanted 12s and then to be able to do a guardian... thought I'd get it by the end of summer.. not happenin.... shoulda practiced more... ahwell I still ride most of winter.. cold..but doable.

Learned:
bp standups
not bp HC's
switchback
much more consistent rolling stoppies

All in all a great summer, and we grew as a team.

ohh! and we have our own tee shirts and hoodies I think thats my favourite part!

Re: Summer is over, what did you accomplish as a stunter???

First year stunting and Im very happy with what Ive learned so far, but its been costly keeping the bike going.

Staggered stand ups
foot on seat
12'n and slow idle wheelies
scrape bar or tail and parking
spreaders and highchairs
SS and idle SS with HB
crashing without gettin really hurt....LOCKED

Right now Im working on circles really hard trying to get them before winter, Ive gotten 1 and a half but not tight..........Its been a good year but not for my licience

Re: Summer is over, what did you accomplish as a stunter???

i learned everything I can do this summer (more season for me tho). just passed 100 ft on the stoppies on the Honda.
spreaders, sitdowns, ss, just learned the back brake a few weeks ago so it's not all throttle anymore for me.

good thread.

Re: Summer is over, what did you accomplish as a stunter???

I learned...

Gas prices suck... and that I hate the inside of a car even more....

Polished conrete isnt that bad... (so they added metal ramps, diamond plate, coke, and cut the size by 75% to it to make it "easier" on us)

Web Design is tedious boring **** but needed...

stunters should all drink coke and boycott pepsi!!!

Proposals arnt as hard as I thought...

The motorcycle industry IS starting to reconize street freestyle.. AND starting to repect us...

it IS possible to do stunt shows on dirt!

it IS possible to do stunt shows on dirt covered polished concrete in front of 46,000 people and next to the BACKFLIP (FMX)... oh... AND PUNK THE DIRTBIKES...

How to put my foot down and start really chargin for shows...

how to get John Z to give you some of the 10,000 pics he takes of you

The beauty of a 600...

Stuntcards can be fun...

Fresno is too gotdamn hot!

Manhattan is too goddamn big!

New Orleans is still my fav place in America...

Humboldt county is sooo much fun but dont expect the crowd to know whats going on...

Merk steps should be called Bullo steps...

Pauly really is a ****

oh.. and Aaron Frank for president!!!

oh and finally.. ...kane learned circles... hahaha!!
