King C Posted December 29, 2005 Report Share Posted December 29, 2005 I ve been trying to learn to pedal hop for about 1 month now and still no luck. I can only do one. How long did it take you to pedal hop and do you have any tips to get me on my way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bambi_3 Posted December 29, 2005 Report Share Posted December 29, 2005 (edited) hello mate,um it took me about two days of backhopping, but while i was doing i accidently pedaled and it then evolved into me learing how to kickhop, but that was almost two years ago so i think thats what happened lol.si.

bikerdude2006fr Posted December 29, 2005 Report Share Posted December 29, 2005 umm it took me about 3 hours of trying and i got it. tips would be to just watch videos with people pedal hopping and slowmo them ect and just get the movements into your head and then over exagerate them and it should come together nicely Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PUnK KiD Posted December 29, 2005 Report Share Posted December 29, 2005 it took me about a day of riding my trials bike to learn how to pedal hop. i cant explain how i learnt but where i ride (portland) i kinda got chucked in the deep end and had to learn quickly and i did, riding with people that are better than you really REALLY helps.Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zoo Posted December 29, 2005 Report Share Posted December 29, 2005 HiDo you ride alone or do you ride with a lot of people often?i found that because i rode by myself it took me something really silly like 3 months to learn,but i had no clue how to do it because any guides i found icouldn't understand at all,best way to describe it in my opinion is:Back brake on,pedal against it slightly,release the back brake at the same time kcicking your pedal,when you feel the bike come up,put the back brake on and keep practising like that and hopefully you will get it in no time at all zoo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamHolmes Posted December 29, 2005 Report Share Posted December 29, 2005 It took me about a month just trying to get the back wheel to come off the floor About a month after that I learnt how to hop backwards about 5 times..Then it evolved into kicking forwards and it all started from there Just keep practising, all it takes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeCottTrials Posted December 29, 2005 Report Share Posted December 29, 2005 keep it up once you learn it, its like riding a bike you never forget Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King C Posted December 29, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2005 i ride with 3 sometimes 4 other people but only 1 of them can pedal hop well at the moment. His brother who rides with us can do about 4/5 but has only just really got the gist of it.King Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Greenan!!!!!!!!!! Posted December 29, 2005 Report Share Posted December 29, 2005 The way i learnt it was to wheely hop then press the back brake, then keep your front end up then do it again. Then after that i just learnt to get into a back hop postion then kick off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King C Posted December 29, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2005 Also Ive just moved onto a new bike. Its a 02 Onza T-Mag (raceline yellow). I haven't really riden it properly yet. What do you think of it if you've riden one (I was on a budget). Is it good on the rear wheel...etc.King Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

koxx1 Posted December 29, 2005 Report Share Posted December 29, 2005 i learnt to pedal hop on a friends bike before i got my own only took me a few goes and i had it dialed, tips... hum keep your weight over the backwheel and do small hops at first you can work on you're technique later on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
