Next Logical Step After Lurch.

[Chicky]

Hey again,

i was wondering what the next thing i should move onto is after learning to lurch. I can do about 30 lurches or so in a row now so was wondering what i should move onto next?

and any guides would help.

cheers

a lurch, up a wall?

or backwheeling, front hopping, 360 or a backflip.

where ever you want to take it to mate.

Hi,

Ive learnt to lurch the other week, and now Im practising (well not right now as I have injured my shoulder so Im having a week off :) ) doing them up/down steps and small walls. Mainly I want to learn to get up objects smoothly...

Have fun!

Do you find your back muscles get sore after a while when practising lurches/backhops?

Try lurching up and down things, generally improve your backwheel control. Can you actually backhop on the spot (e.g. hop on the back wheel on the spot, or (slowly) forwards without pedalling at all)? Learn this, then learn to turning backhop clockwise and anticlockwise on the spot maybe?

Its up to you, depends what kind of style riding you want to aspire to!

recently i've been getting sharp pains in my back when lurching, yes.

I think i'll work on lurching up/down stuff.

cheers.

Practise your control when lurching... try and hop along a wonky pattern of chewing gum patches on a path or something, to get your accuracy and balance more refined :)
