SS Circles
Just started really doing trying circles i use to steer them around.....some of people have told me to try to use the footbrake but i feel 100 times better on the handbrake.....i can get them within 2 parking spots is that still considered a recon circle?

Re: SS Circles
HAHA...still a recon. ss circles are much easier to learn than footbrake circles. The benefit of footbrake circles is that you have a lot more body contact with the bike so stalling and highsiding isn't so bad. Just dip it in a little hot, get on brake for first quarter turn, then left off brake and give a little gas...you should get one full off of just that.

Re: SS Circles
Circles are easy {once you get used to them} well sit down circles are a bitch! but other then that! you need to learn your foot brake.. and only use your HB for off peg ****! and if you stall or highside a SS no big deal just jump off! unless there fast SS then your kinda fucked!!

Re: SS Circles
my friend yells at me cause i always use the HB.....i have to do it sometime i guess....im alright on the footbrake i just like the HB better....i started going for a while with coasters....that should help me be easier on the brake i guess....i was getting bored too....

Re: SS Circles
oh they are a bitch, thats for sure. took me a long long time to figure out how to get them tight, and i still struggle sometimes. you just need to try and somehow keep your body straight and inline with the bike, rather than lean into it, which makes no sense at all imo, but it works.

Re: SS Circles
My friend just got real circles the other day, he asked me 100X what hes doing wrong when he was just steering them(recon)....And I kept yelling at him GAS IT, GIVE IT ******* GAS.....He was just idling them around and not Brake, Dip,Gas brake gas braking them.....
The throttle is your friend! Without it your just steering on idle
