nafan Posted September 14, 2005 Report Share Posted September 14, 2005 This maybe isn't the most interesting or amazing thing to all you guys, but for me it's good... Today and yesterday I have- Rear wheel first hopped off a 5 foot wall Rear wheel drop off (lurch) off a 3.5 foot wall And I'm thinking off hopping off the funbox at my local skatepark (which is nearloy 6 foot...) I also lurched repeatedly across my local skatepark (about 25 metres) Just wanted to share this with you and see how you think I'm doing... By the way I am 14 and I've been riding for just over 18 months... Feedback appreiciated - Thanks dudes!!! :D (Y) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Harrison Posted September 14, 2005 Report Share Posted September 14, 2005 It's good, but don't get too hooked on backhops and drops. I knew people that rode for years and didn't even bother trying sidehops, 180s or getting up anything. The real thing to work on is getting up stuff. The key is to practice everything all the time.

flipkickbs Posted September 14, 2005 Report Share Posted September 14, 2005 Fair play, get a video on the go with some of that stuff in it! :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghosts_cloak Posted September 14, 2005 Report Share Posted September 14, 2005 Excellent, I can tell you are pleased with what you have accomplished so :P :D (Y) Im learning similar things to you at the moments, lurching up and down curbs/steps, small drops etc, but Im 19 so it isnt as impressive! I agree, make a short vid and show us your moves! I think I would improve faster if I had more confidence, but I dont like risking too much as I ride by myself usually unless my g/f comes to watch... ~Gaz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
