Ollie Y Posted December 17, 2006 Report Share Posted December 17, 2006 (edited) hello guys and girls, ive been trying this for ages and i just cant do it, i think its called wheel swapping(when you do an endo and flick to backwheel) i keep tryinging it on flat, i can get from front to back but i find gapping to front wheel hard and not quite sure how to do that and then switching wheels harder i cant get the back wheel to where the front was, how do u get the motion forward? cheers Edited December 17, 2006 by oliyoungman14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orgun_Donor Posted December 17, 2006 Report Share Posted December 17, 2006 Its damn hard to get it directly straight, so try it at an angle with a bit of twist. Also its easier to do it almost side hopping up something, thats the way i started to learn it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghetto Rider Posted December 17, 2006 Report Share Posted December 17, 2006 Hey,i'll explain.Try riding up onto a curb face on and pull an endo, now your weight is over the front (shagging the stem). As you let the front brake off throw the bike between you and put all your weight over the back... After that try maybe pedal hopping to front with a bit more speed, after doing that try static hop to front and you should have the basics sorted..Hope that help?

Maxie_Monty Posted December 17, 2006 Report Share Posted December 17, 2006 hey what i did first to learn how i got from endo to back wheel was i pressed both brakes at the endo and just pulled back into a wheelie position , try this for around 10 minutes to get used to it and practise untill you get perfect balce then learn the basic pedal kick in there to help or hop hope it helped !mX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan6061 Posted December 17, 2006 Report Share Posted December 17, 2006 I call that front-to-back...I thought wheelsawaps are where you have the front wheel ontop of the ledge/whatever, then without kicking, throw the bike upwards, and kinda backwheel the edge..?Started getting those a while ago.
