Alle.C Posted April 14, 2011 Report Share Posted April 14, 2011 Hi guys, just a quick question - is it only me or is it nearly impossible to stand on the backwheel in a hill, if the hill goes downwoards? (don't know if you realy say it like that, but I hope you get the point ) because I realy can't do it :$ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JD™ Posted April 14, 2011 Report Share Posted April 14, 2011 It's just a different balance point, practise more and you'll get it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forteh Posted April 14, 2011 Report Share Posted April 14, 2011 You just need to move youre weight back a bit more, can make it more difficult to preload for gaps/sidehops and the like though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alle.C Posted April 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2011 ok, will practise more =) I've tried it a few times, and it really feels like somethings drags me downwards! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirt jumper jake Posted April 16, 2011 Report Share Posted April 16, 2011 and it really feels like somethings drags me downwards! Gravity? Just lean back a bit more than usual, i found that helped me quite a bit when riding on slanted rocks etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaRtZ Posted April 17, 2011 Report Share Posted April 17, 2011 Yeah as said just lean back more. Also helps if you shift your weight back in one go, rather than gradually shuffle it back. If you don't you may find yourself picking up speed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
