Re: New To Stunting

im a newbie to stunting only been doin it for 4 months now.

Id learn some Christ's (standing on the tank) or seat whatever you feel comfortable doing, it seems like a hard trick but really its all a mental game of just gettin up and doing it, slowly but surley is how i learned now i can hop from the pegs to the top of the tank and stand with no delay practically.

Skitching is always an easy noob trick. maybe start getting comfortable with sitting on the tank and doin wheelies?

Its kinda hard to suggest to another person what they should learn because it all comes down to how big of ***** you got lol. But those are just the things i can do.

Also are you clutching up your wheelies? if not... learn to, power wheelies = garbage.

covering the brake and using the brake are two different things. don't assume cause it's covered you will not loop.

learn clutching wheelies and balance point. once you get that go on to different types of wheelies.

Re: New To Stunting

bring some wheelie down with the brake, even if you dont need to. it helps learn when you do need. only need to do it about 20 times and you wont forget it.

and post up in the how to forum...do a search before you post too, you can find alot of useful info in there. read the how to wheelie sticky at the top. tons of info in that thread
