joiboi180 Posted September 22, 2005 Report Share Posted September 22, 2005 Hey everyone! I've been into trials for quite awhile now... probably 1½ years or so... I had some Dunlop bike that I practice on for a long time... up to the point where I can hop on the back for about a minute or so... but i never knew about pedal kicking lol... well anywho I finally got a trials bike about 1 month ago... and wow... ionno... to me I've felt like ive gotten 10 times better in a few weeks... but ionno what is actually good for 1 month on a real trials bike on top of 1½ years of learning how to hop on back wheel... i ask my friend to take a pic of my hop the other day... and it looks about 30 - 32 inches... couple inches more than wheel height (rim+tire)... so basically the point of this post is to ask more experienced riders if theres any training techniques or particular order of tricks to work on to help increase the speed of my progress... i run 22 - 19... and i got a Norco Evolve 2002 with bad brakes cuz im forcing myself to not depend on my brakes to clear an object and clear it full wheel... i guess i can worry about brakes later on when i have more money... yea i bought my evolve for 300... lucky deal... so um yea my names Ian lol nice to meet you! ;) Oh yea and i need to know how to post images of myself hah... :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Garland Posted September 22, 2005 Report Share Posted September 22, 2005 go ride practise and have fun, the way you say "training techniques" makes it sound like your in trials to get sponsored or something, most people go out and ride, so do the same.

tom tom Posted September 22, 2005 Report Share Posted September 22, 2005 im only learning but what i find helps emensly is looking up a local ride and meeting there, riding with better riders makes you better so much quicker as you can pick things off of them.
