A.Baxter Posted October 2, 2008 Report Share Posted October 2, 2008 if you ride stock i wud learn to tap, but if you are riding stock as i am, learn to manual up to backwheel because now i hav learnt that my backwheels hav just been getting bigger, and now i'm getting about 2 inches over bar height now 1nc you learn it, it will come very easily to you !!Adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This will help because it will build up your confidence on a wall or ledge that you can easily jump and then when you get on to higher and higher objects it might take a few attempts but you will get there eventually. just keep at it!

Captain Scarlet Posted October 3, 2008 Report Share Posted October 3, 2008 Just practice ive been riding a year and i can't get up that high. Learn to sidehop.Thats irrelevant to what he is asking.There's already a few guides about that can explain much better than me so I'lll link you to those.http://www.trials-forum.co.uk/wiki/Backwheelinghttp://www.trashzen.com/pedal-up-biketrial.phpThe important part of Backwheeling is the pedal strokes, those guides will tell you to start with your bad foot at 12 o clock position, and from that point you pretty much do a small wheelie, until your good foot comes round which is when you give it that final kick (good foot) to shoot up.Its difficult at first, so just practice the pedal strokes on the floor or on a kerb and once you feel confident move to slightly larger obstacles.
