how the hell do you get back on thats the hard part

bill parr

by the sounds of it you can get off the side right? ok just keep your right forearm rested on the tank, for balance, when you want to get back on lift your left foot onto the left peg and just lift yourself up stedily. getting back on was the hard part for me too, but at 65 mph you have no choice but to figure it out. sucks i know, but the more you do it the easier it gets.....when you wanna get off the back, let me know, thats even more fun.

-Rodger-

keep tips just above water and get all the slack out of the rope, bend knees, straighten arms, then yell "HIT IT". as teh boat accelerates you will be pulled out of the water and get up on "plane". ENJOY.

Put your hit into the side of the seat to take some of the weight off of your feet

:YEAH

martino

its called skitching, do a search for it

xxxspank

Well im no expert on it, But i would do it going slow to start, swing ur leg over the to what ever peg u like lay ur hip on the seat and keep the pressure of ur feet, then just work on that, then to get back on put one foot on the peg pick ur self up and swing the other leg back to its place... its actually pretty ez, but better safe than sorry...
If anything practice with the bike just sitting there but have a stand or something incase u lose balance...

:YEAH

i just started doing no handed tail skitches when i was in florida. i got some tape of me jumping back on and i caught the left clip on and honked the horn but pulled the bar and almost wrecked :P it was funny cause i was wrecking and honking its alot more fun off the back though.

true dat tenny,skitching from behind is tha ****!!!i learned last summer,and n e body can tell u the hardest part is getting back up on the bike.but it is fun!!!peace out bro and good luck

Outkast Rafe

i can skitch off the back but not off the side
one time i had to come to a dead stop to get back on from the side

velocity_101

Yea I didn't know the correct name of the trick but you knew what I was talking about so it's all good. I'll try it while on a stand a few times then I'll try it on the road... any recommended speeds to try it at?

When you try it off the back... how do you keep the bike moving? Adjust the idle?

Outkast Rafe

go about 60-70 slip it into neutral and hop off the back

bill parr

yep, the faster you go the easier it is, then kinda leap frog with your arms back on. im up to 90 to 95, now.

Tenny

its so easy to get back from skitching on the side. i dont understand what you guys are talking about. just put your left foot on the left peg sand on 1 leg and kick your other leg over. sooo easy. its nice when you can slow skitch and start to do skitch endos. those looks cool but easy to flip the bike because there is no balance involved.

iwannagixxer

take your hands off the bars, throw your left leg backwards over your tail and pivot yourself onto your seat( yea, i know you will now be riding backwatds), look/reach back with your left hand and twist the throttle to keep your momentum.

as your ride by all the girls doing this, you are guaranteed to get laid.=)

Beto

man as soon as it's warm enough i'm gonna try skitchin from the back of the bike and jumpin from one side to the other cuz all i do right now is slowly get on one side of my bike

pussycat

SKIING SOUNDS GAY.
