Explore every move you can think of using only your back wheel. Dont worry to much about going up and down stuff, just concentrate on your acuracy and confidence on the rear wheel. Practice small hops, big hops, spins, hopping back wards, hopping to the side, combos, turning on the spot. Then once you have completely exhausted your imagination, try hopping up and down a curb. Then film an epic video Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoots man Posted October 9, 2009 Report Share Posted October 9, 2009 just do it. instead of hesitating on drops just do it. if you can get into the habit of stacking then attempting the same thing with no hesitation it helps allot. scary but its a damn good buzz. eye up a bus stop and aim to drop off it. if you get the balls to do so all drops below that hight seem easy. sounds like a hardcore way of doing things but when you nail it its awesome and you progress quick. just grit your teeth and man up. concentrate hard and dont think of the what if, instead think of the after success. when you get the bus stop your laughing. my first bus stop scared the living shite out of me but now, well you will understand. the same theory of dropping of around 1 1/2 meters works for larger.

Unipsycho Posted October 9, 2009 Report Share Posted October 9, 2009 Or, just tilt your ankles a bit so your feet stay horizontal at all times, they way it's difficult for them to slip off, then build up from kerbs to bigger kerbs, then steps, then small walls, then ledges, etc practise is progress, and progress is striving for perfection Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Revolver Posted October 11, 2009 Report Share Posted October 11, 2009 To drop off without being scared, do it enough to trust yourself doing it.Same with any other technique. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
