Trix Posted August 25, 2007 Report Share Posted August 25, 2007 I can hop on the rear wheel and turn round to my left but, when I try and hop round to my right I hop all deformed and cant move the bike round to the right atall. Can anyone give me any advise? I ride right foot forward if this has anything to do with where I should put my body. Thanks Rik Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fixed Pants™ Posted August 25, 2007 Report Share Posted August 25, 2007 I think it's just something that happens, like some people can't sidehop to the other side, or write with their other hand, or play football with their other foot.It'll take ages to get right if you really want to turn right, because you haven't practiced it and are so used to going left.

Tommy d Posted August 25, 2007 Report Share Posted August 25, 2007 Took me ages to get it, I've probably still got more to improve, but it comes eventually. Just... try and turn?! Maybe not the most helpful advice but that's what I do... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Endohopper Posted August 25, 2007 Report Share Posted August 25, 2007 Kinda struggling with this too , and my inability to do it was limiting my choice of obstacles . I found that nudging with ankle and exaggerating the shoulder turn helped . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan6061 Posted August 25, 2007 Report Share Posted August 25, 2007 I can do it both ways fine. Meh, i'm special. Just do the same as you do when you go your 'normal' way, but...the other way?Will be retarded at first, but all you have to do is practice. You have the technique if you can do it one way.

poopipe Posted August 26, 2007 Report Share Posted August 26, 2007 im completely useless at anything my wrong way unless I do it switch footed (im not much cop even then but it works better) - might be worth giving that a rag Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
