No... but if you can tell me how you got to that point I'd be most appreciative... I can't get up the nerve to take my other hand off the bar... I keep getting skerred that I'm gonna head shake and dump it.

Put a damper on and set it stiff, when you go to do the stoppie try it with your left hand already off and put your tension through your right arm holding your body on the bike.

I CAN'T DO'EM BUT MY BUDDY CAN. HE SAYS HE STARTS WITH HIS LEFT HAND OFF THE BARS, AND GRIPS THE BIKE TIGHT WITH HIS LEGS. WHEN YOU GET IT UP, HE SAID YOU HAVE TO TAKE ALL THE WEIGHT OF THE BIKE AND PUT IT ON YOUR ARIGHT ARM, WHICH TAKES ALOT OUT OF YOUR STOMACH.A DAMPENER WILL HELP IT NOT SHAKE. HE SAID JUST PRATICE GETTING IT OFF THE GROUND[SMOOTH] FIRST , ONCE YOUR USE TO IT, START GOING FOR DISTANCE... HOPE THIS INFO HELPS.
