Laurence--Trials Posted July 20, 2011 Report Share Posted July 20, 2011 I went to a riding spot yesterday and tried to sidehop to rear a skate ramp but it just wasn't happening, my front wheel kept hitting after the pre-tuck and in turn making me fail the hop. I dont know what im doing wrong, i can do it up walls a similar height, any tips? do you think im at too much of an angle? May have to get a video / picture if required...

N.Wood Posted July 20, 2011 Report Share Posted July 20, 2011 How high is the ramp? You need to go more parallel to it, and turn in the air once your front wheel has missed it. Maybe try moving out from the wall slightly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kieran Morrison Posted July 20, 2011 Report Share Posted July 20, 2011 Sounds like your putting your front wheel over the ramp? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe try moving out from the wall slightly. Just under bar height (when bike is on two wheels) I'll try what you said to do, thanks Sounds like your putting your front wheel over the ramp? Nah mate, bike isn't tall enough to get front wheel on, the front wheel is just catching the ramp after i pre-tuck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
