Dan6061 Posted December 21, 2007 Report Share Posted December 21, 2007 Going riding tomorrow, first for a while...Only in the local town, but still. I feel that i've done everything there (well, in my level of riding)...I want to learn something new though, but i'm stuck for ideas.Already try spinny stuff, can sidehop alright, and wheelswap, and drop..gap...Pretty much all the TGS stuff everyone does.Is there anything left for me to do? Bunnyhop gaps I can do, kinda..not that big. I wanna escape from the TGS side of riding really, but I have no idea what to learn..haha.Ideas anyone?

aener Posted December 21, 2007 Report Share Posted December 21, 2007 Try some flat-landing Always wanted to see someone try it on a trials frame.If not, just find another style of riding you like (eg, downhill) and try and add some of the elements into TGS riding.Flying downhill off a ramp to rolling-gap a rail? Hahaha.Worth a shot - but maybe not with downhill riding... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted December 21, 2007 Report Share Posted December 21, 2007 360 pivot on the backwheel straight to sidehop up, no bitch hops. Just start off on 2 wheels, spin round 360 on the back wheel, as it starts getting round to the 360 point you need to be crouching down, then just launch up as the spin starts to slow down.Used to love doing those Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan6061 Posted December 21, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2007 Oh, I can do those 180 endo pivot things... Those spinny sidehops sound fun..will have to try those! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted December 21, 2007 Report Share Posted December 21, 2007 Can start off by doing it 180 first, then doing 270, then 360, etc. Works for static up to front type things too. Well, pretty much anything, haha. Shit's fun! Can even do a 270 into pedalling up type thing, so do a switch 270 on the back wheel, then do a half-pedal stroke so you get your good foot forward and launch up. Then link it up with spins on top, etc. It's all good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jason222 Posted December 25, 2007 Report Share Posted December 25, 2007 Manuals for sure. Just try to be more consistant in your riding, make things that you'd normally do effortless. Become more controlled and smoother on the rear wheel, and try more rolling moves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
