the first thing i learnt was to actually ride a bike

but in trials was backhops

[Broomer]

You will find this handy.

[TrAsHeR]

I dont think there should be an option the first thing to learn is trackstand.

[SWEENY TODD]

Learn to balance the bike then move onto back hops ect

[Josh PWND]

thanks broomer thats a great help mate ,sorry TrAsHeR imlost with the trackstand i donot no any trials talk jargon

trackstand just meens balancing in one position usually turning the bars abit

[TrAsHeR]

Yeah trackstand is when you keep balance on the bike without moving.

The bases for all other moves in my opinion

[kristov]

learning how to rock between front and rear wheel is useful

[Ravemonkey]

First thing i learnt was to endo

then trackstand

then bunnyhop

I did start with a not trials bike though so it was quite hard to do more trialsy moves

[Brad.]

First i learned how to trackstand, then i'd try and rock between both wheels and then got backhops nailed

After that your set to try some harder stuff.

Brad.

[JT!]

Endos, and hopping up steps.

[BenLeacock™]

Endo's. bounce on back wheel, backhops, then just moved onto trashzen guide

[chrisbikefix]

i think trackstands and being able to keep your bike under control is the best thing to learn, then work from there. Just get out and ride, your pick it up .....

[Scott Norman]

well when i satrted i first learned to boon every where then went on to learning to kick hop.

[matt middler]

I first learnt how to back hop and trackstand.

[0zzy]

i just got used to the bike, little stuff like bunnyhopping up a curb, endos, wheelies,trackstand,rocking everything really then when i had decent control of the bike i went and learnt back wheel hooping then progressed to pedal kicks.

[Alastair]

Endo, then bunny hop then backhop.

[Tamness™]

Trackstand is definitely the thing to learn first. Once you can track stand properly, it gives you a little more time to think when you are learning other things.

I learnt on and xc bike so trackstanding was pretty natural to me on a trials bike and it helps a lot.

[jimmy b]

The wheelie lol

The trackstand then backhops are probably the best skills to have first.

Then endoes,

Then pedal kicks,

Then rocking,

Then dropping,

Then gapping,

Then everything else you can think of,

The filming yay

[John Shrewsbury]

Martyn and martin's TRICKS AND STUNTS VIDEO. I learnt how to do everything from that film.

[Sir_Hops_Alot]

I first learnt back hopping, from an endo.

[Alex Dark]

ER...endos, 90 endos, wheelies, bunny hops, backwheel hops, zap tapping, backwheel drops

[Typhoon_Rider]

Well i recon everyone has something different they want to learn first.

I wanted to learn how to back hop ages ago but the first thing i lernt was to get up walls

by lifting the front whee then the back and now from that I progressed onto hopping on the back wheel

and gapping etc.

I dont learn things to easy so I have to learn the very basics first.

[Wilson.]

lol i remember when i done my first backhop :$ then i learnt how to pedal hop and trials was sooo much more interesting.
