PaRtZ Posted September 7, 2009 Report Share Posted September 7, 2009 Hi NMCIm posting this in here as typically NMC's majority are new riders. I'm just another rider like everyone else, and I've been riding for 6 years now. Whether you want to take trials up as a sport or its a passing fad, you may find this video of interest to you to give you a bit of a spur on in trials. The message is pretty obvious but its aimed at everyone who wants to get better at trials and may find themselves riding without improvement. Improvement will ALWAYS happen with practice. And heres the proofHope you enjoy Vimeo Video -> Original Video Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
belga Posted September 7, 2009 Report Share Posted September 7, 2009 Any chance you can put that on youtube?Vimeo wont play for me (i'm thinking it has to do with flash support under Linux, but i havent found a solution yet). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unipsycho Posted September 7, 2009 Report Share Posted September 7, 2009 (edited) Haha, is sick stuff. Some good editing there too, actually, though I have no sound on my comp so dunno if it's all good I do find myself a little more motivated, buuut I think this may be because I found out I've been validated today...but still, I want to get on a bike! It's a good video, tickled me inside, it did not in a rude way...And as I say, "Practise is progress" Edited September 7, 2009 by Unipsycho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BringThatShtIn Posted September 8, 2009 Report Share Posted September 8, 2009 Good video =) I sort of wonder how you kept going with that wall for 4 years without any videos like that yourself.. Am I also right in thinking that the learning curve in trials starts very very shallow indeed, while you learn balance and rear wheel control, and then starts to steepen as you start to get towards proper gapping and ups? I hope so, since it does seem to be moving very slowly for me (6 months and all I've really learnt is backhops, pivoting, hopping and vaguely pedal kicks (I can usually manage 2 or 3 at a time before my front wheel is somehow forced down lol.

It takes ages to get started. Once you can do moves you get better very quickly...then it slows down again :/ which is where I'm at now You just got to keep trying.
