weebryan Posted June 28, 2007 Report Share Posted June 28, 2007 I was wondering what is the hardest move to practice and how do you go about it. I have a few side hop, wheels swaps, but i am not brilliantand only 5"4 , so whats your hardest move? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barbra Posted June 28, 2007 Report Share Posted June 28, 2007 I feel like watching Troy all of the sudden.Oddly enough for me it was gapping...everything else i did was above my gapping standard. Then again whenever i put power into anything something would skip... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JT! Posted June 28, 2007 Report Share Posted June 28, 2007 I've been riding over 3 years and i can't sidehop over 2ft. I hate sidehopping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hill_393 Posted June 28, 2007 Report Share Posted June 28, 2007 Well mine is not so much of a weakness but a personal preference. I try to steer away from straight big taps and sidehops into tech moves. So for instance, a 360 Degrees static spin into a sidehop, down to a pedal stall, then 180 off. Trying to find my own style and way of riding. Also as im getting older, im more wearious about injurying myself, so I tend to tone down the big stuffDarren Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greetings Posted June 28, 2007 Report Share Posted June 28, 2007 Large sidehops. Even though I know i can make it, something stops me from jumping upwards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Drewery Posted June 28, 2007 Report Share Posted June 28, 2007 Large sidehops. Even though I know i can make it, something stops me from jumping upwardsSame, Im scared of catching my pedal on the way up, even though I go the 'right' way now. Its so damn annoying, I will get over it eventually though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waddy Posted June 29, 2007 Report Share Posted June 29, 2007 hooks and front to backs on thin things like rails, i can get vert hooks with an uphill runup fair easy but on flat it takes me a while to get them, and i cant get i right when i try to front to back on rails, i think its because i go streight forward instead of at an angle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Garland Posted June 29, 2007 Report Share Posted June 29, 2007 Hooks and sidehops for me too. Hooks not so much a weakness more of a still learning, where as side hops can only do about 42" which I think is pretty poor as I have been riding 4-5 years now, makes me feel old even though I am 18 lol.

Tom Booth Posted June 29, 2007 Report Share Posted June 29, 2007 I've been riding over 3 years and i can't sidehop over 2ft. I hate sidehopping.Sidehops aswell, I just can't get it right. I can't swing to the left, aswell as kick, and jump up, So I doubt I coud even do 2 foot JT, haha. Whenever i try, i never let og of the brake and just end up leaping to the side and onto the front wheel. Lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
