Getting **** on lock
Whats up fellas--I'd like to hear some opinions on different methods of learning new parking lot stunts. It takes me about 10 tries on average when I try something new before I start getting the feel for the particular stunt. I also make it a point to do something different every time I stunt for diversity and progression---stepping up to a new level everytime.
Usually the first 5 shots I give a new trick look like garbage and feel uncomfortable--but get better and better. I started 12ing 3 months ago and Im working on 1-handers right now. I've attempted jumping into circles but I dont want to rush into something that technical too soon--however I at least attempt circles a few times in my sessions. What is everybody else's view on this? Later......

I Try To Learn Somthing New Everytime I Go Out. And The Bet Way For Me To Get It Down On Lock I Guess Would Be To Just Keep Going Back And Forth Do In The Same Thing. Even If It Takes Me A Hundred Trys. And If I Dont Get It By Then I'll Try Again Next Time.

Re: Getting **** on lock
haha yeah, i keep trying a trick untill i get it down and if it takes me longer than 1 session i carry onto the next. i dont really like jumping into something new untill i have somethin else on lock because then you have a bunch of "half assed" learned stunts that your liable to attempt sometime and get to gutsy thinking youve got it down.

circles take a long time to learn. Every session i work on circles...stand up...sit down...seatstander...
That trick took me awhile to get 3-4 in a row.

Re: Getting **** on lock
I usually go out and work on one or two tricks the whole session. Then twice a week or so I go through every trick in the bag and practice each one a few times to keep them all fresh. I find if I dont do a particular trick for a while, it takes me alot more practice to get it back.
