Simpson Posted July 28, 2007 Report Share Posted July 28, 2007 Backhops, pedal hops, wheelies, endos, about it.............. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex-Mitchinson Posted July 28, 2007 Report Share Posted July 28, 2007 When I started trials, like 4 yrs ago, all I did was wheelie hop off drops and try and go to bash on stuff. In jersey, back then, you were good if you could work up the balls to do a 5ft drop lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaMmY Posted July 28, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2007 Cool Thanks for the tips so far!! Keep them comin!!(adding to list all the time) lol!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
montyrider07 Posted July 28, 2007 Report Share Posted July 28, 2007 Endo sidehops off things, it probably doesnt help you to learn alot but that was like the trick of the ages for me I loved it. My main advice would be, find some pallets, see what you can drop, see how high you can get up. And as you start learning and getting better, add to the stack Josh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muel Posted July 28, 2007 Report Share Posted July 28, 2007 Find a curb, get inventive. Push yourself doing bigger stuff, the balance and power will come eventually.Or so I'm told... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrOcKeR Posted July 29, 2007 Report Share Posted July 29, 2007 When I first started trials, I always complaied about how nackering it was. I always bashed walls, hopped on curbs, roling hops, hoping on the back wheel and tyring to hop on the fron wheel. My faveiorute had to be wheelie drops Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris13 Posted July 29, 2007 Report Share Posted July 29, 2007 when i first started, i rode with some people about 2 years older, and they bbullied me into pedal hopping of a 6 foot drop. worked though, kept doing it for about 3 hours after.basicly you just need to push your self and keep at it (something i didnt really do) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilikeriding Posted July 29, 2007 Report Share Posted July 29, 2007 Rock walks whats that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harmertrials Posted July 29, 2007 Report Share Posted July 29, 2007 whats that?Its when you do a 180 endo then follow it round another 180 on the rear wheel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trix Posted July 29, 2007 Report Share Posted July 29, 2007 I recommend learning basic stuff on low stuff first like 2 pallets high, like rockwalks sidehops back wheel hops so on, thats how me and my mates started and i think it helps alot. Then when you feel comfortable add more pallets or try different stuff like sidehoping up benches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boo rider Posted July 29, 2007 Report Share Posted July 29, 2007 (edited) when we 1st started trialsing, i was just riding down a hill in to a big obstical of crates, we didn'nt know what to do when we 1st got them, we was trying trails, i think, but when we (me and my friends) saw trialsing on extreme sports, we tried hopping 1st Edited July 29, 2007 by boo rider Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onzamann07 Posted July 29, 2007 Report Share Posted July 29, 2007 i just used to side hop up anything i could! used to bmx before though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James-M Posted July 29, 2007 Report Share Posted July 29, 2007 I would say practising things getting larger and larger, eg. sidehops, so after a while of riding you don't reach a block, just build yourself up in whatever you do. And learn to do things with both feet, like turning, and sidehopping both ways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
