Mark W Posted June 12, 2006 Report Share Posted June 12, 2006 Preload a lot. Crouch down, twist the bars in the opposite direction.As you spring up, twist your hips round and lead with them. If you spin your front wheel left, try and twist so your arse goes over the right side of your bike. This way, it's in front of the axis of your rotation, so you'll lead it round more. Get the front end steep, and by leading it round like that you'll get the spin faster. It feels weird at first, but just stick with it and you'll get it no fuss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poopipe Posted June 12, 2006 Report Share Posted June 12, 2006 (edited) put more air in your tyres? I bow to marks greater bike skills..... Edited June 12, 2006 by poopipe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted June 12, 2006 Report Share Posted June 12, 2006 You're right though - if you're running crazy low pressures, it'll be harder 'cos a lot of your spinning force will go into twisting your tyre more. Not ideal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not ideal.I was bollocking on about leading with your head originally but since I can only do them in the air I was probably talking shit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted June 12, 2006 Report Share Posted June 12, 2006 Yeah, you've gotta look. I just found the arse/hip movement thing made the difference for me between getting 180, then 270, then 360. Before I did it "proper", I found I used to just end up stalling the spin at about 270, still on the back wheel, looking over my shoulder but with no momentum, and that's what made the difference for me a video of me not making a 360 spin. Just went at it too hard The camera batteries died after that first attempt though, so it'll have to do for now... Anyway, you can see at the start though how you've gotta move your weight across. I've got a vid of me doing a proper one, but it was on my old computer. I sent it to someone on MSN, so when they're online I'll try and get it back.

Vasil Posted June 12, 2006 Report Share Posted June 12, 2006 Try on surface that do not hold the tire and you can spin easier....:)after that you can do anywhere if you have learnt the technique have fun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ali C Posted June 12, 2006 Report Share Posted June 12, 2006 I can do them on slippery surfaces, but not grippy ones, I have never been too great at spinny rear wheen stuff though not sure if its been said, but it helps a lot to look at where your wanting to go, the body will follow.
