Question About Technique.

Okay so take a look at this crude diagram, i have a few questions about the technique.

Now when getting from stage 1 to stage 2 it seems that in all the videos ive watched all you have to do is slightly release the rear brake and pull a small wheelie. Thus making the whole bike move forward so that the rear wheel is much closer to the object that you're wishing to lurch onto. Is that all it is? A wheelie? Or is there an extra technique needed. I'm quite curious as i can already go from step 1 strait to 4 in one lurch, but doing the wheelie to get closer to the object first seems a lot easier and more reliable when doing long lines.

so that's it, my question. Please feel free to answer :shifty:

from position one to 2 i find leaving the front wheel on the floor as long as possible helps more than anything. the later you leave the pull up the easier it is and more of a tap you will get on the wall/rock. the tyre tap technique is the best technique for most get ups to back wheel, it all depends on what you have learnt, but i prefer this technique rather than a pedal up since learning tyre taps. i cant even pedal up anything bigger than handlebar. :shifty: but can tap over 50" ish
