Marky_J Posted September 12, 2007 Report Share Posted September 12, 2007 My brother mastered the peddle hop last night on my bike. He managed to get 5 in a row,but he is hoping forward without a kick, is this right or should he be trying to kick aswell to move further?thanks guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pengsmelly Posted September 12, 2007 Report Share Posted September 12, 2007 if hes moving forward without kicking thats called a boom. for a peddle hop ye he does need to kick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J Trials 31 Posted September 12, 2007 Report Share Posted September 12, 2007 Dang, he can hop that high? I suck at this stuff. I need to get a new bike so I can get better. He should be pedal kicking forward though. I can even do that one time. I can't hop on the rear wheel that long though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marky_J Posted September 12, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2007 thanks guys he only learnt it in about 2hours of riding last night. With a few alterations to my bike and some good old friendly tar and he was off practising all night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reece26 Posted September 12, 2007 Report Share Posted September 12, 2007 Aswell as just kicking he wil need to learn to release the brake in and out at the right times! Im sure with plenty of practice it won't take long! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
