Mr_Pitbull Posted March 15, 2006 Report Share Posted March 15, 2006 A line that scares you when thinking about it......Why dont you kick for it, why leave it for another day? I was thinking this and its absolute bullshit.......Leaving it for another day couldn't possibly work because the anticipation will gain on you and it will develop your fear even more. Imagine having that drive in you to go for lines without anticipation, focussing so hard that you just kick for them without no worry. I've been trying to find my focuss point and its coming back to me now. So? What makes you go for lines.For me its all in the footage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr_chisholm Posted March 15, 2006 Report Share Posted March 15, 2006 (edited) Hey, Good topic man Anyway i always think about how my own riding ability. *thinking to myself* i need to push myself again for my own peace of mind. If i am at a gap say i don't like it, do it. So next time i roll on by i can think to myself 'hey i can do that'.I am always pushing my riding now, makes me enjoy the sport even more!!

Mr_Pitbull Posted March 15, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2006 Chain Snaps are a big f**k up especially with the force i put in when gapping. Im used to snapping my chains on drop downs so i get so pissed off with the anticipation i just couldn't give a F**k to be honest? and just forget, if they dont snap of flat to flats why would they snap for a drop down at that very moment in time.

Joe_Kearney Posted March 16, 2006 Report Share Posted March 16, 2006 My worst fear is...Graham Nortons' UK TV comeback, he is the perfect example of an unfunny person, and as annoying as Mr annoying, 13 times winner of most annoying t*sser award. I can't stand him. The yanks should take him to the moon and forget to bring him back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JT! Posted March 16, 2006 Report Share Posted March 16, 2006 I wouldn't use the word scared really. But when i ever try to do something there something in my head telling me i shouldn't be doing it. Really anoying. I actully put myself off from doing things that arn't really going to hurt me at all if say my chain snaps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actully put myself off from doing things that arn't really going to hurt me at all if say my chain snaps. Skitz... Once when I was riding in the wet, (waiting for the Simpsons to come on).There's this was on my drive, where next door's slopes up, ours down.On their side it's a small wall, on ours, the drop increases as it gets further to my garage door.I went to the small end, hopped up, dropped down. Sweet.Went up a bit, hopped up, tyre slipped back, I fell forwards, and faceplanted my stoney driveway. Breaking my nose.I also smakced my toe on the ground just before the nose breakage.Ouch.Then after my toe got better and I was riding, I was determined to drop off that bit. But couldn't, i was scared of doing the same thing.It bugged me for ages, and in the end, I went for it.Done. Smoooth Then went higher, and went inside EDIT: School computers seem to do 2 lines down when I press 'enter' Edited March 16, 2006 by Dan6061 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alun Goch Posted March 16, 2006 Report Share Posted March 16, 2006 Not scared exactly, but when I push myself to go bigger on sidehops, as i crouch down ready to jump, my whole body sortof goes floppy, and I just put a foot down.It's really annoying me, and seems to happen on random days, even when I know I can do the sidehop, after doing it the day before, it's as if my body gives up on me.Does this happen to anyone else, or am I a weirdo and should I be banned from trials and be kicked in the fringe with an elbow?!
